We also discuss many lessons from the story of Prophet Yunus (PBUH) in relation to sexual recovery.What are some gems that we can learn from Prophet Yunus (PBUH)'s story that are relevant to our journey of recovery from addictions and unwanted behaviors? How can my temptations, habits and sins turn into prayers and a path to the Divine? How can the themes of patience, surrender, admitting one's powerlessness and tawbah form the foundation of my recovery and healing journey? These and other questions are explored in this episode.References used and resources mentioned in this episode:- Coffee With Karim podcast episode 9: "Sex, Porn & Paradise" with guest speaker Zeyad Ramadan- Secrets of Divine Love: A Spiritual Journey into the Heart of Islam by A.
