The 3 Communication Skills Every Coach Must Master | Ft. Ustadha Razia Hamidi

March 9, 2026·23 min·1 clip

In Week 2 of her Coaches Corner Facebook Live series, Ustadha Razia Hamidi teaches aspiring Islamic coaches the foundational communication skills every coach must master. She covers four pillars: (1) honest and concise communication — including encouraging clients to use I-statements and avoiding vague or ambiguous language; (2) active listening — resisting the urge to respond immediately, embracing silence, and asking clarifying questions; (3) empathy over sympathy — validating client emotions, then gently expanding their perspective and encouraging them to see situations through others' eyes; and (4) action integration — ending every session with a concrete, tangible application plan and walking clients through real-life scenario rehearsal. She draws on live session case studies and frames the practice within an Islamic ethical framework.
