Friendships are incredibly tricky things. Some of us, we have friends from a long time. Some of us,

we want to keep them as friends, but we notice changes in them, changes in ourselves. Maybe we're

going our separate ways, or maybe you're struggling to make friends. You don't actually know how to

or how to set boundaries. I mean, there's so many different things. Now, so many of you have

contacted me about this and ask for my advice that we're making it an entire series. So this is part one, and we're going to

cover things like how to make friends, how not to. And how is this related to Islam? Well, the

Prophet Peace Puponim said, we are on the dean of our friends. We have to make sure we choose

our friends wisely. There were so many different references for this. And we're

going to go into that in the modern day life now and say, well, how does that apply to me now every

day? When I go to choose my friends or not, when I go to try to be the best most impossible,

how do I do it in light of good friends? So let's get going.

I don't know. Let's get going.

There's a saying that good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.

And I think many of us have had at least one person in our life that we could say was like a true friend. And if you're a person who hasn't had that, hold on. My first

statement was hard to find. So it's okay.

But al-h-h-da-l-la, this series that we're about to do is going to be all about

advice related to friends.

And these are going to be pretty short compared to my normal range of how fast I do a podcast,

but they're going to be like little snippets of life advice. And so, adhammedri, if you're new to the podcast, my name's mindful Muslim,

where we are always doing podcasts here on lifestyle for Muslim women in terms of just

relationship hacks, life hacks, organization, tons of stuff that you go through that no one

else is talking about.
