Abdul Rahman Chao – Self-Esteem & Confidence

About this lecture

In this khutbah, Sheikh Abdul Rahman Chao explores the Islamic foundations of self-esteem and confidence, drawing on the story of Adam (alayhi salaam), Quranic verses, and prophetic examples to show that true dignity comes from Allah alone. He challenges Muslims to move beyond self-pity, victimhood, and negative self-image by strengthening their relationship with Allah, following the Sunnah, and actively contributing to their communities. Parents are also reminded of their critical responsibility in nurturing — rather than undermining — their children's sense of self-worth.
