You can also try posting in the Middle East consultants bowl!

I am from the Middle East and man I miss it. It does slightly depend on where you are moving though, what info are you exactly looking for?

I don’t have kids yet but applied for jobs online, and made a lot of dua. If your heart is in it, Allah can make anything happen for you. With that said, would not recommend Riyadh or Dubai at all. Jeddah, yes - if looking at KSA. The region is not what it was 10 years ago.

Super expensive, and on the path of becoming another Dubai

I was listening to a Mufti Menk lecture yesterday on this topic. Surah Nashra is also about burdens we bear. Within this Surah,Allah SWT speaks about how He is the one that granted the cure, purity, and strength after the backs were about to break. Allah SWT takes us to this point to refine us. We never know our capabilities until we are tested and challenged. This is when we realize we can do it and we can get through it 🫶🏻! IA you got this 🫶🏻!
