 Introduction
﷽
Praise is for
Allāh alone, Most Merciful. May His
countless blessings and peace
shower upon the beloved Prophet ‫ﷺ‬
and also upon his family, companions
and followers.
I ask Allāh for His Forgiveness and
Pardon.

I humbly ask you to include me, my

husband and my children and all who
have contributed to this book in your
duas.
My eternal gratitude is to my parents
and my husband's parents. Any work
we do is only possible through their
duas for us.

 My
Journey

with
Anxiety
Let's go back
8 years
I had just given birth to my second
child and had a 1 year old. There were
events going on around me that I
had very little control over and I spent
most of my days alone because my
husband was working long hours.
I felt lost, tired, overwhelmed,
confused, stuck and scared. During
this period of my life, I really
struggled with Anxiety and Panic
Attacks.

F a s t f o r w a r d t o . .

Now
Nowadays I rarely suffer from panic attacks
Alhamdulillah. When I do feel anxious, I am able to
manage it better and one of the ways I do that is by
reciting Duas.
There are other things that have helped which I will
go in to later on.

LETTER'S OF HOPE
 What Anxiety
meant
for me

For me, Anxiety has been the reason for

countless panic attacks, hundreds of
missed events and opportunities, days
spent zoned out in bed, weeks spent
sobbing uncontrollably, years spent
hiding from loved ones, and worst of all
– a decade of self loathing.

The intensity of the panic attacks I

experienced and the state of my mental
wellbeing, lead me to make huge
changes in my life.

One of the main ones was just slowing

down long enough to understand what
was going on.This involved Journaling,
Earthing, Meditation and more. I will be
sharing more about these things via our
newsletter - Letter's of Hope.

 SAFIRA
I have been blogging at Tiffin and Tea for 5 years now and I
first wrote about my expereince of Anxiety almost 4 years ago.
Since then, I have spoken with several of you about your own
experiences and I feel so humbled and greatful that you have
written to me about your own experiences.
Your support and words of encouragement have rellay helped
to shape this book and all that is coming.
The reason I first put the Anxiety post together was because,
when I felt like I was on the brink of giving up and there was
no way out, Dua (Supplication) is one of the many things that
really helped me. At times of heightened anxiety, I turn back to
these Duas over and over again until my heart feels lighter and
I feel like I can breathe again.
and Anxiety
Much has been said over the years about
anxiety from an Islamic perspective and there
are still some views out there that link
depression and anxiety to weakness of iman.
To anyone who needs to hear this, please
ignore those opinions and remember:

'When Allah wants to be good to someone, he

tries him with some hardship.'

'For every misfortune, illness, anxiety, grief, or

hurt that afflicts a muslim, even the hurt
caused by the pricking of a thorn – Allah
removes some of his sins.'

 What is Anxiety?
Anxiety is a persistent feeling of worry, fear or nervousness. Many people feel
anxious at times, especially when faced with stressful events and changes to
our lives, it’s a natural human response when we perceive that we are in
danger. However if these continuous feelings of anxiety impact your ability to
carry out life as normal, you could have an anxiety disorder.

Anxiety might be becoming a problem if:

Your feelings of anxiousness last for a long time
The feelings of worry are out of proportion to the situation
You avoid situations which may cause you to feel anxious
You feel distressed and unable to control these feelings
You regularly experience symptoms of anxiety such as panic attacks
It’s becoming difficult to enjoy and live your life in the way you want to.

O Allah, I seek refuge in you from grief and sadness, from weakness and from laziness, from
miserliness and from cowardice, from being overcome by debt and overpowered by men (i.e.
others).

'O Allah, I am Your slave, son of Your slave, son
of Your handmaid, my forelock is in Your hand
(i.e. You have total mastery over me), Your
command over me is forever executed and Your
decree over me is just." I ask You by every name
belonging to You which You named Yourself
with, or revealed in Your Book, or You taught to
any of Your creation, or You have preserved in
the knowledge of the unseen with You, that You
make the Qur'an the life of my heart and the
light of my bosom, and a departure for my
sorrow and a release for my anxiety. Note: Allah
will take away the anxiety and sorrow out of the
heart of him who recites this supplication, as
mentioned in this hadith by our prophet (may
the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).'

Duha
The revelation of Surah

Surah Ad-Duha was revealed to the Prophet

Muhammad (‫ )ﷺ‬at a time when he had not received
any revelation for six months, not even in the form of a
dream.
The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬was in a very disturbed state of
mind, feeling negative and depressed and believing that
Allah was displeased with him and had forgotten him.
Surah Ad-Duha was revealed to the Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬to
provide relief and hope. It was a way to reassure the
Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬that Allah had not abandoned him.
Through this Surah, we too can find relief from anxiety
and sorrow.
Affirmations
I mentioned in a previous post that when I first started my
healing journey, my mentor and teacher asked me to start
simply by using affirmations. At the time I didn’t see the
significance but now, I use them all the time and I encourage
my children to do the same.

What are Affirmations?

Affirmations are short statements that can boost how you feel
about yourself and challenge deep rooted unhelpful thoughts
that you may hold in your subconscious. They are a way to
reprogram your mind and overwrite any negative
thoughts/ideas. It is a way to create a belief system that is
geared towards helping you to succeed or overcome
difficulties.
Practicing affirmations is as easy as repeating a phrase
repeatedly until it replaces an unfavourable thinking pattern.
This can be done daily but it can also be done whenever you
feel the need to use them.
Affirmations for
Anxiety
When it comes to Anxiety, it really isn’t as simple as saying an
affirmation and hoping that you will never feel anxious again.
This Ebook doesn’t negate the idea that anxiety can be
difficult to push through.
However, you can frame your thoughts in a way to help you to
get through an anxious period by repeating positive,
empowering and uplifting affirmations.
I do have to warn you though, that repeating affirmations does
feel phoney to begin with. It takes a bit of getting used to but it
will soon become second nature.

Start with Bismillah and say:

'With the permission of Allah..'

Then say the Affirmation that you need most.
End with Alhamdulillah
