In this opening episode of The Weight of Doubt, we begin by exploring the first step in the journey of struggling with faith: recognizing and acknowledging doubt. For many, doubts about Islam can arise quietly, almost unnoticed, and over time they grow into larger questions about belief, identity, and purpose.

This episode serves as a starting point—a space to reflect on the doubts that often go unspoken. We’ll talk about how doubt can creep in unexpectedly, whether it's doubts about religious practices, understanding the teachings of Islam, or the challenges of balancing faith with the complexities of everyday life.

We’ll also discuss the importance of allowing yourself to notice these doubts without fear or shame, and how this acknowledgment is the first step toward addressing them. Whether you're questioning something specific or feeling a general sense of uncertainty, this episode is about creating an open space to begin the conversation and understand that doubt is a natural part of the journey of faith.

Tune in as we set the stage for deeper reflection and exploration in future episodes, offering a gentle reminder that struggling with faith doesn't mean you're lost—it's just the beginning of a meaningful journey. 💌
