Been there. 'Don't Be Sad' by Aid al-Qarni is a comforting read, short chapters full of reminders.

Honestly, listening to Quran recitation helps my mind settle more than anything. Especially Surah Duha.

May Allah ease your anxiety. The Book of Assistance by Imam al-Haddad is a classic for spiritual clarity.

Sis, I totally get this. Reading 'Reclaim Your Heart' by Yasmin Mogahed really helped me. It's so relatable and gives a beautiful perspective.

Try 'Purification of the Heart' by Hamza Yusuf! It's exactly about dealing with overthinking and finding inner peace through Islamic teachings.

Duas from Hisnul Muslim have been my go-to for calming anxiety. Reciting them before bed makes a huge difference.
