Acts of worship like prayer and fasting are meant to bring us closer to the divine. But for many of us they can cause stress, guilt, shame, even fear, for example when you miss a prayer and think you'll go to hell because it is a grave sin to have missed the prayer...What if such fear, stress, guilt, and shame are actually blocking us from feeling closer to God? This episode dives into how shifting from anxiety-driven worship to love-centered #devotion transforms our #worshipexperience and fills our lives with happiness. We explore what it means that we were created to #worship God (as stated in the Quran, the Holy Scripture of the Muslims). This episode reframes worship as adoration—the highest form of love—and invites us to consciously deepen our #lovingrelationship with God.NOTE: This episode is a recording of a live that Samia did during #Ramadan2026. #Ramadan is the Muslim month of fasting. As such the above mentioned concepts have been discussed primarily in the context of how Muslims understand and engage with Ramadan. However, you don't need to be Muslim to benefit and apply the concepts discussed in this episode. If you're someone who desires to further your #SpiritualGrowth grounded in compassion and love, this episode is for you!#RamadanReflections #LoveOfAllah #ArRahman #FaithJourney #IslamicReminder #HeartCenteredWorship #BeyondRitual #DivineLove #MuslimMindset #PositiveFaith #InnerPeace #ConsciousRamadan #spiritualgrowthmatters #spiritualgrowthmessage #spiritualgrowthtips #spiritualgrowthinislam #spiritualgrowthjourney #liveyourbestlife #islamicreminder_____________________________________ABOUT SAMIA:Samia Bano is the #HappinessExpert, author, speaker, podcaster & coach for coaches and healers.
