Friday Gems: Cognitive Dissonance of the Dunya: Choosing an AkhiraOriented Life | Dr Rania Awaad & Qari Senan Hafez
The program begins with a recitation of Surat alKahf by Qari Senan Hafez, followed by Dr Rania Awaad's reflections on a short passage from the chapter.
At times, we go about our daily lives assuming that we are doing what's right and that we are on the right path, but it may not match what Allah wants for us. We can easily live with cognitive dissonance where this life (Dunya) not the next life (Akhira) becomes our reality. Dr Rania will address this common pitfall and how we can prevent it.
