TRIGGER WARNING:

In this episode, JustUmr talks about the events that lead to him letting go of the whispers of the ego and embrace a grounded lifestyle, in that journey he was contemplating suicide. This could trigger some listeners and viewers, please be advised!

What happens when rock bottom becomes the starting point?

In this episode of the Barakah Blueprint Podcast, I’m joined by JustUmr, who shares his raw story of battling suicidal thoughts and finding Islam at the edge of despair.

We talk about:

  1. The mental battles no one sees
  2. The danger of the ego and how it is a growing problem
  3. Discipline, prayer, and reframing life through Islam
  4. Lessons on hope, resilience, and identity in today’s world

This conversation is not about glamorizing pain — it’s about showing how the darkest nights can lead to the brightest dawns.

👉 If you’ve ever struggled with meaning, battling the ego or mental health, this episode will give you perspective, honesty, and hope.
