Young Pakistani actress Aina Asif appeared as a guest on Good Morning Pakistan, where she talked about namaz and depression, and found herself at the center of attention.
The actress made her appearance at the morning show alongside her co-stars Sammar Jafry and Abul Hasan for the promotion of their drama serial 'Parwarish'.
During the show, the kids shed light on the importance of visiting a psychiatrist when one feel anxiety and depression because these professionals are specifically expert in this problem and they will guide you right that how to become stable and what steps should one take to revive their mental peace that was damaged due to some stress.
They did not talk against Namaz, they said one should pray and must pray, but on the other hand, to visit a therapist, psychologist, or psychiatrist is not a shame. Our brain is also the part of our body and we have to take care of it so that we can live peacefully.
Aina Asif said, “Sometimes, therapists are really mean, your kid will go to seek medical help and they will say, ‘Recite Namaz’—yes, Namaz is important—but what can I do in that moment when I am depressed?”
Abul Hassan added, “For a cure, we need a therapist; we can’t rely on Namaz for all our solutions. Allah has given us a mind to think—we should go to a therapist to seek medical help.”
Social media users are not happy with Aina Asif and Abul Hasan for saying this about Namaz without having proper knowledge regarding the religious topics.
One user commented, “Now these professional actors and influencers will teach us Islam.”
Another remarked, “Allah has stated in the Quran: 'Seek help through patience and prayer.”
