should you listen to...

should you listen to your heart or your head?

I'm fed up with listening to my brain and always taking the sensible, secure options. maybe its just me having a really bad day today (and yesterday...and the day before...and prob tmrw...) I dont even know what I want - or if I want what my brain tells me I want. or what my heart tells me I want. or if I want something else. I'm not gonna do it (coz that would be too not sensible of me :rolleyes:) so theres no need at all to panic but I feel like driving into something very, very fast, prob just for the thrill of it so my heart races with fear or something - wont help things though i know that.

dunno whats wrong with me lately :(

I am one to always listen to my heart.

If it's a specific matter then try performing Salaatul Istikhara and if you're just generally feeling like this then make du'a to Allah SWT to make all your tasks easy for you and give you contentment in your heart. Sometimes people feel that way due to several reasons such as stress or pressure in their lives but keep the remembrance of Allah SWT in your heart and keep the tongue busy in dhikr. Allah SWT is indeed closer to us than our very own jugular veins, He SWT is aware of our struggle so rely on Allah SWT

Get a hobby, all my crazyness is let out on the football pitch. I don't think you can listen to one OR the other, you need to get them co-ordinated! Inshallah hope you get out of thie rutt soon.

If you're thinking of doing summat which is gonna harm yrself - like driving into a brickwall, jumping into a well, burning yrself, eating McDonalds (!) - listen to yer head.

[Hello:)]

i think listening to a bit of both is helpful. i also think it depends on the situation
