An Indian-origin professional in the UK has shared how his father reacted after he told him about losing his job. Kaish Ansari, who worked as a Data Engineer at JP Morgan in Glasgow, said the experience of being laid off left him worried about his career and future. But instead of reacting with fear, his father offered him a simple message of reassurance.
A father's calm response
Ansari shared a video of himself calling his father after losing his job. He appeared concerned about telling his family the news, but his father's response was far from what he may have expected. "It is Allah's will. And something better might happen in the future."

The brief response struck a chord with viewers, particularly because Ansari's father appeared more concerned about his son's well-being than the setback itself. For someone working abroad, losing a job can bring added uncertainty, including financial concerns and questions about what comes next. Ansari's video focused instead on the support he received from home.
Why Ansari shared the video
Ansari said he did not post the conversation to seek sympathy. He wanted people facing similar difficulties to know that they were not dealing with them alone.
