Ummi listen
I want to go to therapy
Are you crazy?
No
Are you mental?
No
Only the crazy
the mental
go to— therapy
Ummi
Please—
Listen
I need therapy
What will the community
think
if you go to —therapy
I don’t care what others
think
I-
I am depressed, Ummi.
It’s because you’re not
religious
enough
I suffer with anxiety
Ummi
It’s because you don’t
pray
enough
I-
I am addicted to drugs,
Ummi.
It is because you
don’t
read
the Quran
enough
Don’t you see I need therapy,
Ummi?
Allah is there to
speak
to.
Ummi,
I’ve been praying
I’ve been reading the Quran
I’ve been talking to Allah
But
I
Still
Need
Therapy
No.
It is because
You
Are
Not
Doing
Enough
for Allah
Baba,
Listen to your mother,
Habibi
