Assalamu Alaikum dear sisters,

As we welcome the blessed month of Ramadhan, we pray that it brings healing, peace, and renewal to your heart. This is a month of mercy, a time to slow down, reflect, and reconnect—most of all, with the Qur’an, the healing for our hearts and guidance for our lives.

“And We send down of the Qur’an that which is healing and mercy for the believers…” (Qur’an 17:82)

Whatever you are carrying, know that you do not have to carry it alone. Ramadhan is a time of turning back to Allah, of seeking ease, and of finding comfort in community. At Maryam Support Line, we are here for you—wherever you are, whatever you are facing. If you need someone to listen, to remind you of hope, or simply to hold space for your heart, our line is open.

May this month bring you nearness to Allah, light to your soul, and healing to every part of you that needs it.

With love and duas,
The Maryam Support Line Team

Find strength in surrender—Allah is more than enough. 🌸

Trusting Allah isn't about knowing how or when things will work out—it's about believing they will, because He promised. 🌿✨ When life feels heavy, uncertain or overwhelming, just remember this: Allah's plan is always greater than the one we have for ourselves. Lean into and fall into that trust. 🕊️💖

He sees you. He knows your struggles, and He will provide for you in ways you never expected. 💜🌟

NEW ARTICLE ALERT: Healing Through Grief: Finding Comfort and Strength in Islam

Inna lilahi wa inna illahi raji'un—To Allah we belong, and to Him is our return. These words offer a profound reminder of our place in the universe and the temporary nature of our worldly existence. Losing a loved one is undoubtedly one of the hardest trials we face in this life. Yet, Allah (SWT) has created us to worship Him and live in communities where we support one another. Talking about our feelings of sadness and loss is an essential step toward healing.

🌸 Compassion Fatigue: A Silent Strain on the Heart 🌸

Compassion fatigue is the emotional and physical exhaustion that comes from caring deeply for others, often to the point of neglecting ourselves. As Muslim women, balancing family, cultural, and spiritual duties, we can be especially susceptible. Whether it’s caregiving, supporting loved ones, or serving our communities, our constant giving can lead to feelings of burnout and detachment. Recognising these signs is vital so we can care for ourselves while continuing to give with love and sincerity.

🤲 Remember, self-care is not selfish—it’s necessary. ❤️

A dear friend shared this quote yesterday, it was so moving I thought to share. Life can knock you down sometimes, and seemingly out of nowhere. Allah knows why, and Allah knows how He will help you through it.

BLOG POST ALERT: How Muslim Mental Health Support Can Change Lives

Mental health is a critical aspect of overall well-being, yet it is often overlooked or stigmatised within many communities. For Muslim women, seeking mental health support can be particularly challenging due to cultural pressures, misconceptions, and a lack of resources that align with Islamic values. However, Muslim mental health support can significantly change lives by providing compassionate, faith-based guidance and understanding.

Our founder, Lizzamah Akinlade, recently had the pleasure of giving a webinar on stress management, with a focus on the well-being of women. In the session, she explored the profound impact of stress on health, how to recognise the signs, and shared practical techniques to alleviate it.

She discussed a range of approaches including talking therapy, aromatherapy, nutrition, walking, massage, and dhikr (mindfulness), empowering attendees with ways to mitigate stress and maintain balance.

We are incredibly grateful to Old Kent Road Mosque & Islamic Cultural Centre - MAN UK for inviting her back to share this important message and for the warm reception! 🙏

Our religion is so comprehensive alhamdulilah, we literally have a tool to manage each and every emotion. As we all begin adulting, life can be harder and harder to manage, but alhamdulilah we have so much in Islam that teaches us how to manage unwanted emotions, how to transform negative energy into positive energy. With your words and actions you can transform negativity into positivity 🧡
