Are You Unconsciously Resenting Allah’s Decree (Qadr)?

Could harboring a hidden resentment toward Allah be the true root cause of your outward sins? When we try to stop sinning, we often just cut away the visible "weeds"—our behaviors—only for them to sprout right back up. To eliminate sin once and for all, we have to target the root. In this video, Dr. Riyad Rahimullah bridges Islamic wisdom with psychological insights to expose how a deeply rooted dissatisfaction with Allah’s decree feeds four major sins: arrogance, envy, greed, and anger. Learn the psychological mechanisms behind these spiritual traps—including how Iblis and Qabil fell into error—and discover a practical, three-pronged strategy using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and prophetic remedies to restructure your core beliefs and find true contentment.
