Fatherhood in the Sight of Allah: How the Quran Speaks to Fathers

The DiscoverU Life Podcast

A dad is a daughter's first love and a son's first superhero.

A father is the unsung hero taken for granted…

Who’s not allowed to cry when things get hard, who’s supposed to stay strong and lift everyone up.

Who’s judged, not for who you are, but for how much love and money you put on the table.

We’re culturally not conditioned to ask the same questions we usually ask mothers:

“How are you doing?”

“Is something bothering you?”

We've painted fathers as the villains who believe in tough love…

…as the prime dictator around the house.

…as a man who’s labeled “weak” when they experience emotional breakdown.

But Allah values fathers, more than anyone can ever do.

He recognizes your struggle, your hard work, and gives credit where it’s due.

The struggles of fathers are different than mothers.

But it's a struggle nonetheless, with no expectation of a reward.

Look pops, you don’t have to be in sacrifice mode all the time.

The world might think of you differently, but when you see how the Quran speaks to fathers…

...you’ll know:

💎 How can you positively express your feelings without feeling embarrassed or exposed

💎 What made prophets like Ibrahim (AS) and Yaqub (AS) the prime example of fatherhood

💎 How can you take care of your mental and physical health without compromising your responsibilities

💎 How can a father use the Quran to instill the love of Allah in himself and his family at any stage of life
