Rachida

After years of psychological abuse that became increasingly worse, I started looking for an Islamic marriage counselor. I got offered a listening ear and a clear insight into the core of the problem. Thanks to my Islamic counselor, it has now become very clear to me in which vicious circle I have lived for years, and it is up to me to break free from it. I am grateful for the honest advice I received, and ultimately the choice is left up to you. And what I liked most was the expertise in behavioral problems within marriage. This also made me realize the behavioral problems my husband has and my wrong reaction to this (like constantly pushing my boundaries, so that there are no boundaries anymore), which only makes me mentally sicker.

Nacera

I have already come knocking digitally several times. Each time with a serious case that left me emotionally stuck. I always leave with the feeling that Allah is there for me and that Allah understands me. You really get listened to feel understood what really concerns you. I was never pushed to make radical decisions. But I received clear information about how things work Islamically and that everything does not have to be so black and white. I am extremely grateful to this person.

Vanessa

After several weeks of fighting with myself internally because I was stuck in a difficult situation, I ended up here. And even though I already knew the solution somewhere, this brother gave me the extra push I needed to make the decision. I feel like someone finally listened to me and that already means a lot to me right now.

Zee

It was great 🙂, I've never done anything like this before. It's good to talk to a counsellor who is also Muslim. It was good but also challenging.

I needed Islamic marriage advice and a sympathetic ear. The Islamic counselor was especially honest, really holds up a mirror to you, and could empathize well. After the conversation, I got the right tools to move forward and also feel truly understood.

I needed advice and a sympathetic ear. In addition, the Islamic counselor also provides advice from Islamic perspectives. I found the conversation very pleasant. The Islamic counselor was especially honest and can empathize well with the situation you are in.

Khadija

After a divorce, I was looking for someone to talk to about my problems. Through the deep conversations I found out why my marriage actually ended, and I learned a lot from it. My Islamic counselor really helped me with my situation.

Rabia

After a very intense day I felt so bad, I was searching on Google and came across Abu Athari. What a nice conversation this was. I received the right advice, but above all honest and truthful advice. Thank you very much.

Khadija

While googling I came across the counseling chat. Had an honest, reflective conversation. Very nice that this exists. It confirmed for me what I already thought and felt. Thanks again for listening!

Maryam

I really appreciate the help I received, and I admire the approach of patience and respect. Allah only changes a situation if you take steps yourself. It was very nice and educational, and I am glad that I was helped with my dire situation. Now I have clarity.
