Tilawah as Birth Breathing Exercise (Updated October 2020 from 12/18/2013)

What is Subconscious progressive breathing obtained from regular tilawah?  


When we tilawah (recite al qur'an), we don't really calculate very meticulously. 


We scan a line then we take a breath as much or as little as we feel we need. 

We are given allowances to stop at several places according to our capacity. 

Allah is not zalim, Allah gives the one who tries two rewards; one for trying and another for reciting the qur'an.


How to use subconscious tilawah breathing for birth? 

Muslimahs have been doing it all their lives-- by gradually increasing their daily portion of tilawah

Muslimahs who have not gone to childbirth classes ace positive births because their trust in Allah and the rewards of birthing, and by their amal ibadah such as solah and tilawah

Those who perhaps have bad birthing experiences, require a little push (information) from the wealth of childbirth education to help them. 

This does not mean childbirth education is not significant; it is. 

But it is 50% if not less of what a muslimah needs to have a positive birth experience. 

'Ilm (childbirth ed) plus aqidah & religious knowledge - indispensable package for the modern muslimah of the 21st century.

Our deepest fear

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. 
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. 

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. 

We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? 

Actually, who are you not to be? 

You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. 

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. 

We are all meant to shine, as children do. 

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

 It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. 

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. 

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
