The sheikh discussed the importance of living in challenging times, which can cause a person to be weak in their Deen.

However as Muslims we do not despair as the believer is strong by using the Qur'an and Sunnah.

Sometimes we cannot deal with a situation and have to turn back to Allah as Dua (supplication) is the weapon of the believer.
