Your brain treats a made-up disaster the same way it treats a real one.

In this episode, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) gets personal about years spent scanning for what could go wrong, unable to just enjoy the moment because tomorrow felt too uncertain. 

He ties it to the Islamic understanding of qadr, a Quranic reminder about what strikes us and what misses us, and a story that completely reframed how he thought about tawakkul.

You'll walk away with a practical way to catch yourself mid-spiral and a question to ask when anxiety about the future pulls you out of the present.
