Discovering Spiritual Depth in K-Pop

The Battle Against Shayateen

Parents can use this film as a tool to engage their kids in meaningful conversations about Islamic values while enjoying the vibrant world of pop culture.
Rumi’s Journey to the Satisfied Soul
Ultimately, Rumi’s journey leads her to achieve nafs al mutma’ina, the satisfied soul. This transformation is not just a personal victory but a powerful reminder of the potential for growth and self-discovery that lies within us all.
