“There is no believer who consoles his brother (or sister) for a calamity, but Allah will clothe him with garments of honor on the Day of Resurrection.”
Grief, a complex and often misunderstood emotion, is often overshadowed and underappreciated in its significance.
Everyone copes with loss differently. Whether it's the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or facing significant challenges.
We're a community committed to providing a space where you can access valuable resources, attend small-group size grief sessions, and build meaningful connections with others who understand your journey.
"I cannot put words together, to express how light I feel after these sessions. I came today actually feeling quite heavy, and walked out feeling so much lighter and heard."
Urooj Vakani
"After experiencing a loss of a parent, I felt the session was extremely beneficial, as it gave me a safe place where I could openly discuss my loss without the fear of being judged or being made to feel I lacked patience in Allāh’s decree.
It was an intimate gathering amongst sisters and by listening to the stories of others sisters, it made me realize I am not alone in my grief and that everything I had or still am experiencing is normal. "
Mahajabeen
"When I first attended the gathering, I had not experience any grief. I learned lots of different types of emotions through others sharing their experiences and thoughts. A month after, my father passed away and I could steer through these emotions and helped my family, especially my mom to pass through the most difficult moment. I think many people like me do not know how to react when we learn others who just lost the loved one. It is a good learning opportunity."
“After having lost many close members of my family, I learned through others’ experience how different grief can looks and feel for everyone. It was comforting to know that there is no ‘one way’ to work through your loss."
“I didn’t imagine I would feel so raw and a sense of healing after being able to talk about a major loss after 8 years”
I attended this gathering with the comfort of knowing I could just observe and not participate if I didn’t feel comfortable. But it quickly became a safe space for me to share, and to relate to others stories. There is something about having a shared experience of profound loss that allows your heart to attach to others. It was both beautiful and painful at the same time, but a wonderful way to honor the memory and legacy of a loved one.”
"I don’t have the words to express my gratitude. You could really share your feelings and see that you’re not the only one that is suffering from a loss. I needed to be with others feeling the same thing to affirm that it is okay. There is great comfort in hearing someone else express what’s going on in their mind and it’s great to connect with those who share this common bond."
"Even though for me it’s been years since losing my own dad. I felt like today I could put into words that the grief and pain of loss I feel, was valid."
