The DiscoverU Life Podcast

Many Muslims today carry a type of mental pressure that builds quietly.

A mind that does not pause.
A heart that feels tired.
A day filled with noise even when everything around you is calm.

Islamic psychology reveals why the mind spirals this way and how emotional weight, overstimulation, and spiritual disconnection interact beneath the surface.

This free training with Ustadha Sarah Sultan gives ...

You’re trying, but it still feels like you’re falling behind.

You want to be close to Allah.

You want your heart to be awake in worship.

You want your days to feel purposeful and guided.

But right now…

You’re overwhelmed with responsibilities

You get distracted the moment you try to focus

Time keeps slipping away

Worship feels rushed or “just done”

Your heart feels distant and tired

You worry you’re falling behind

You hate feeling like you’re...

What does it really mean to rely on Allah in your darkest moments?

In this heartfelt and spiritually grounded episode, Razia Hamidi joins Boonaa Mohammed to explore the essence of Dua and Sabr in a believer’s life. Razia reflects on her upbringing as a child of Afghan refugees, her family's journey of resilience, and how those foundations shaped her deep reliance on Allah.

She shares:
🔹 Why Dua is the pu...

The question every believer must ask: what are you leaving behind?

Legacy isn’t about fame, followers, or having your name remembered by the masses. 

It’s about the unseen deeds written with Allah - the ones carried out quietly, sincerely, and with intention. 

From the brother who organized parking at the masjid, to the soldier whose name was never known but whose sacrifice was recorded in Jannah- these a...

There comes a moment when a person realizes:

The only thing standing between them and the life they were meant to live…

…is the courage to ask Allah for it.

Not the connections.

Not the timing.

Not even the resources.

Just a Dua bold enough to match the size of what’s in their heart.

Because every visionary journey begins with a Dua that feels a little too big.

A request that stretches the soul and dares to tr...

You might’ve been making a Dua for years. Maybe even since you were a child. The same Dua, over and over. 

But… have you ever stopped to ask yourself if you actually know what you’re saying?

In this podcast, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) takes you back to a moment that started with a room full of kids - and ended with a story 15 years in the making. 

What begins as a joke turns into something unforgettab...

Sometimes the most powerful insights doesn't from books or lectures, but from the quiet reflections of your own life.

In this podcast, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) shared an idea that came to him while looking through old photos. 

An idea so profound, I joked about selling it to Google—but the truth is, it's something every believer already has access to.

Your moments of joy are not random.

They're ...

You’ve heard the world’s noise about “quiet time” - mindfulness, meditation, deep breaths… but did you ever stop and ask: “Wait, where’s this in our Deen?” Let’s take a seat (literally) and discover how Islam taught us the power of pausing before it became cool.

In this heartfelt session, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) takes us behind the scenes of spiritual productivity - where ‘doing nothing’ is actually doing everything that mat...

Most people never realize they're just following programmed responses. The clock says it's time to eat, so they eat. The craving hits, so they satisfy it. 

Free will becomes an illusion when every "decision" is actually a conditioned reflex.

But Allah, in His infinite wisdom, has given us tools to break these cycles. When you consciously choose to fast, to abstain, to say "no" when your nafs ex...

What would you ask for if you had a guaranteed yes?


In this short episode, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) gives us a space to pause and reflect on the power of asking - not from people, but from the One who never turns you away. 


It’s about preparing your heart for that sacred moment when the doors are open… and what you choose to say when you step through.


It’s a reminder of who you’re sta...

You’re doing the worship. Saying the right words. But deep down, it feels like something’s off - like your heart is buffering.

In this podcast, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) explores what it means to experience a true spiritual hard reset. Just like a device overloaded with too many apps, we build habits - some helpful, many harmful - that eventually slow us down or shut us off completely.

...

The world has completely shifted. Industries that seemed unshakeable have crumbled overnight, leaving millions scrambling for what's next. But within this chaos lies the greatest opportunity of our lifetime.

A WOW idea is the kind of concept that makes people stop mid-conversation and say "I've never heard anything like that before." 

These are the ideas that serve people in ways that align perfectly wit...
