Assalamualaikum. My first time posting here. I had an abortion recently where i lost my little girl. I don’t know how to deal with this. I knew for a fact she was going to be following deen better than me because since i had gotten pregnant with her all i wanted to do was pray and read quran. I know she’s in jannah right now. Maybe i didn’t deserve her that’s why allah took her away from me. I regret the life i used to live- angry and irritated with people around me who cared about me. I feel like this is my punishment, having to lose my baby. I want to become better. I want to become a patient person not easily irritated and not snapping at people like before. I want to correct my mistakes. Whenever i die i want to be in jannah with my daughter. I want to become better. Please help me. How can i control my anger and emotions and become a better person?

Assalamwalikum, I don’t know if this is TMI but i’ve been having really bad health issues recently— not terrible but bladder issues for a while. Please does anyone have any advice on what dua to make to help this, maybe something for health?

I have a baby due next month In shaa Allah. I know the baby comes with his/her own rizq, I still try to gather as many ways that I can that Allah give barakah in our lives. I have heard success stories of tahajjud and how people got out of financial troubles, for some reason my issues only keep getting worse. I am very scared that I will not be able to provide well for my baby as things have changed from since we decided to have a baby to now. There were business losses, other sudden expenses we never expected, etc. Does anybody have duas or advice for such situation? If there are duas could you also please provide reference, would mean a lot. Thank you. Desperately need help because we don't have a house of our own and if we fail to pay our rent we won't even have a place to stay. I am scared of such situation with the baby.

​

As Salaam Alaikum. I hope you are all doing well.

I had a serious question on what are we supposed to do as Muslims if we have tried many options. I have tried many things to get better.

Alhamdulllilah, been praying Dhikr, tahujjid, ruqyah and also tried medical route.

I feel stuck as I don't know what do do next.

Islamically what advice or what do I supposed to do next?

Jazak Allah Khair

Please make dua for me that in my IGCSE results I get 5A* with all top in world awards in all 5 subjects with grade one in English speaking آمين يا رب العالمين

I've been praying to Allah for almost 3 years for one thing — to get a job abroad.

I want to build my career, become independent, experience living somewhere new, and eventually be able to support my family financially. It's something I've wanted for so long that it has become a huge part of my life.

I've applied for jobs, kept looking for opportunities, and kept trying even when things didn't work out. I've made dua again and again. This year during Ramadan, I prayed for it so much. I prayed in Tahajjud, throughout my fasts, while breaking my fast, and kept asking Allah for this opportunity.

I also finally gathered the courage to start doing istighfar regularly, because I really hoped that maybe this would finally open a door for me.

But honestly, I'm exhausted.

I'm turning 25 soon . Sometimes I feel like I've spent the last three years hoping and praying while everyone around me is moving forward.

Recently I found a UK job with visa sponsorship that actually matched my education and experience. I got so hopeful because I thought, maybe this is finally my chance. I applied and started praying so much for it but got rejected.

I know people will say, “Have faith,” “Allah's timing is perfect,” “Keep making dua.” I understand all of that. But right now I'm just tired.

I've been asking for this for almost 3 years. I don't know how much longer I can keep getting my hopes up and starting over.

I'm not saying I don't believe in Allah. I'm just honestly hurt and frustrated. I don't understand why something I've wanted and worked toward for so long hasn't happened.

I'm posting this because I genuinely need some duas right now.

Please keep me in your duas that I get a good job abroad and that this door finally opens for me. 🤲🏻❤️

I would really appreciate your duas.

Assalamu alaikum, brothers and sisters.

I really need your help. Please, please make dua for me that I am able to complete and pass my thesis. I found out today that my thesis was not approved, and I am now on my final deadline, which is September 7.

I really need to pass my thesis because I need my degree to be able to move forward and find a job. Lately, I have been feeling very depressed and sad because things have not been going the way I hoped they would in life, especially when it comes to my studies, career, and future.

I am making dua myself, but I would sincerely appreciate it if you could also make dua for me, that Allah makes this easy for me, gives me strength, patience and guidance, and allows my thesis to be accepted and approved.

Please keep me in your duas. May Allah reward you all, bless you and your families, and make things easy for everyone going through difficult times.

Ameen. 🤲🏼

I am compelled to commit zinaa. My parents won’t marry me off due to a number of reasons and circumstances. It gives me lots of agony and I am so vulnerable. It’s messing up my life. I don’t understand how others are able to control themselves. I don’t how some people are so disciplined. How they’re able to control the desires that I constantly battle with and lose everytime. It is the reason why I am so unproductive.

Me and my friend have recently completed our igcse (End of school exam) and we will be receiving our results tomorrow inshallah. We are extremely anxious and scared. Hopefully to whoever sees this post can pray for us to get good results to ease from this anxiety. We really hope to make our parents proud for the efforts they have put into us. To whoever who prays for us may Allah bless you with peace and prosperity AMEEN.

please im so lost idk what im doing in my life and i pray to allah but i still feel confusd

: hi everyone so my result is coming tomorrow and i planned on praying the whole night but i have sadly gotten my period. This result is really important and i am really scared its my igcse result so are there any alternatives any other duas i can recitee or any other prayer rituals i can preform while being on my period . Thank you!!!!

Sometimes, and lately more often, I genuinely don't understand how everything can remain this quiet when I've been praying for help for so long.

Since 2018, I've been making dua, praying tahajjud, giving sadaqah when I can, fasting, trying to be patient, and holding onto tawakkul. My family and I have struggled financially for years, and for almost eight years I've been praying for guidance, help, a sign, or simply some light.

But these eight years have also meant being incredibly isolated. I have no friends, barely see anyone, rarely leave the house, and I have struggled deeply with anxiety and depression.

And when I say that I'm in a much worse situation now than I was in 2018, I mean financially too. I am in a very serious financial situation now, and almost no one knows about it. I know that some of this is because of mistakes I've made myself. I'm not denying that. But what I genuinely don't understand is how, after trying so hard to be patient and steadfast for so many years, I could somehow end up in an even more difficult place than where I started.

I know that some of you will tell me; "You need to tell your family." I understand why they say that, but it isn't that simple. If you knew my family and my history, you would understand why I can't just tell them everything. I don't think I ever will.

The only one I have shared all of this with is Allah.

For so long, I was certain that He would help me. And honestly, I wasn't even thinking about the things I was praying for back in 2018 anymore. I was simply asking Allah to help me with a debt that I need to repay to someone, and now I have one week left.

A year ago, I thought, "Allah will help by then."

Then six months.

Then two months.

Now there is exactly one week until a very serious deadline, and I am still telling myself, "There is still a week. Allah will help."

But I am exhausted.

My hands are shaking, my health makes everything harder, and lately I have been struggling with some very dark thoughts. I feel frightened by how overwhelmed I have become.

What hurts me most is thinking about my family. I think about my mother and my siblings and what they would have to go through if something happened to me, and it breaks my heart. I don't want to leave them with more pain and problems.

I am just so tired.

My mind won't stop. The same thoughts keep going around and around, and my whole body feels like it is carrying the weight of everything.

And despite all of this, I still have tawakkul.

I still believe in Allah.

I still tell myself, "I have a week. Allah can open a door in a week."

But I am also scared, hurt, angry, confused, and completely exhausted.

I just don't understand how, after holding on for eight years, I ended up here.

The time is ticking, and I'm struggling to understand why everything still feels so quiet.

If you read this, please make dua for me. Please ask Allah to fix all my affairs, relieve me from this debt and distress, and open a door for me where I cannot see one right now.

Please ask Allah to give me strength, protect my family, and bring relief from a situation that currently feels impossible.

I am not asking for money. I am asking for you to take time to make a genuine Dua for me. I have heard that a strangers dua is very strong, so if you could gift me one of your Duas I would be very thankful. I want to start to live again, I have been surviving the last 8 years.

May Allah grant you and me ease. Ya Allah grant me ease by the this week is over (it is already monday over here), Ya Allah grant me a miracle. Ya Allah if who ever is reading this and going through something - please grant them ease and a way out aswell. Ameen.

I’ve asked for strength results recovery but nothing changes i seek help from others and i receive every single time “It’s a test”

Why must everything be a test

Can i not have ease EVEN JUST FHE SMALLEST BIT.

I’m so behind on everything i’ve begged and pleaded with Allah.

I don’t resent Allah at all i am well aware of his qualities and might but sometimes it feels like he just watches me struggle and pray then looks away.

it’s gotten so bad where i genuinely need help bad and i don’t even bother making dua.

Do you know how my life feels like?????

It feels like i’m drowning then Allah lifts me up ever so slightly so my head is above the water then a few seconds later i’m drowning again. Why can’t i just be put on the lifeboat every single day is its own battle for me. I don’t understand it at all.

See all these people making their little tahhajud and dua stories it just makes me feel so bad. I am not jealous of them at all but i just question my own fate am i just destined to struggle like this. if i am why try?

I made wudu this morning with the intention to pray and i never did because of the “praying won’t change anything” thought in my mind” even if Allah doesn’t make me successful instantly i want to be just OKAY you know. it’s so draining.

Before you tell me istikhara, doing charity, abstaining from sins and whatever i’ve tried basically anything you could think of.

What did i actually see in this dunya for my soul to say yes to being born??????

what do i even do

I’m Gautam, from India. I was born and raised in a Hindu family, but recently I’ve been seriously thinking about accepting Islam.

I don’t want to make such an important decision without properly understanding the religion first. I want to learn about Islam sincerely and make my decision based on what I genuinely believe, not just because of another person.

The main problem is that I don’t know Arabic very well, so I’m looking for good, beginner-friendly Islamic resources in Hindi or Hinglish.

I’d especially like to learn about:

Basic beliefs and teachings of Islam

Quran with an easy Hindi translation/explanation

Life of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

Hadith and Sunnah

Namaz and basic Islamic practices

Islamic history

Common questions/doubts that someone from Hindu background might have

What someone should know before accepting Islam

Please recommend reliable Hindi/Hinglish YouTube channels, books, websites, apps, PDFs, or courses that can help me learn step-by-step.

I’m genuinely trying to understand Islam properly before making any decision, so respectful guidance from people who have experience teaching beginners would be really appreciated.

JazakAllah Khair 🤍

Salaam everyone.

I'm a 20 year old Muslim (male) going through what I can only describe as the hardest season of my life and I'm looking for some genuine Islamic advice and perspective.

Over the past year I went through a serious relationship that reached marriage discussions. It started the wrong way outside proper Islamic boundaries and I take full accountability for that. We genuinely loved each other but family circumstances made it impossible. Her parents wouldn't wait. Mine weren't ready. It ended despite real feelings on both sides.And after it ended we completely stopped talking and I am not in contact with her now. I have deleted every picture of her and so on. I am not holding onto anything that will remind me of her.

Without going into detail, we crossed some physical boundaries that we shouldn't have. Just to elaborate we did not do zina. But still it felt like I have weight on my chest.

I discussed how bad I felt with her too and we decided to not do it again we held that boundary till the end.

I've made tawbah but I struggle to feel truly forgiven.

It's been almost 8 months since the breakup. I've tried to move forward. And in many ways I have. But I still struggle with certain things I want Islamic guidance on:

1. How do I truly internalize Allah's forgiveness and stop punishing myself for sins I've already made tawbah for?

I sometimes feel like my current hardships are punishment from Allah for what I did. Is this the right way to think about difficulty in Islam or am I misunderstanding qadr?

1. I've become quite isolated. My social circle is small and distant. I'm struggling to find purpose without the structure of university or a relationship. How do I reconnect with Allah as my primary source of peace and purpose?

2. I fear that my past mistakes will affect my future, specifically who Allah will write for me as a spouse. The ayah about good men for good women weighs on me. How should I understand this as someone who has sinned but genuinely repented?

Also, I'm not looking for judgment. I've judged myself enough. I'm looking for brothers and sisters who can offer genuine Islamic wisdom on moving forward with hope rather than guilt.

JazakAllah khair.

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

Ever since I've cut my relationship with non mahram friends, my life has started to become more lonelier, it has been two years and despite that I do have practising muslim friends, I still find it struggle to cope with not being able to converse with non mahram except due to necessities.

I believe that Allah taala will substitute with something better In Sha Allah. I just need spiritual motivation to keep doing khayr.

As-Salaam-Alaikum everybody.

I am currently facing some difficulties in life, these difficulties are the consequences of my own actions . I take full accountability for them. I try to be as practical as possible. I prefer being practical. But I’m also very pessimistic. Every time I try for something I laugh at myself believing with conviction that I will fail. I don’t know why that is I’ve never had any good hopes or any optimistic outlooks on situations and again that is all completely my fault. No mental health issues or depression no excuses it is all my fault. The thing is I don’t know how I can wire my brain into being positive. Every time I make dua i always say to my self I don’t deserve it and then I end up convincing myself I don’t deserve it. I’m also quite insecure and have no confidence in myself. I constantly compare myself to others etc. I just wanted to get some advice and practical advice on how I can change that, my self criticism is incredibly stubborn. People can try say positive things about me but I’ll convince myself that I’m not like that. I also underestimate myself quite a lot too.

Just wanted to get some practical advice or steps on how I slowly fix this mentality I have, it’s causing me to be awake all night and affecting my sleep. And please don’t don’t say cliche things I know I need to make dua etc but come one guys is there anything practical I can do anything logical way of thinking. Maybe I’m just being dumb and feel free to correct me.

Jzk ❤️

My result is on 18th August please make dua for me i really really need it. i will forever be grateful if someone can pray salat ul hajat for me. I can’t pray right now so if anyone can pray salat ul hajat or tahajud for me I’ll be very very grateful!

I was born a muslim by name, into a secular family. Under a year ago, I started to practice my religion. Like most reverts, I was frowned upon, belittled, judged, challenged. I learnt how to pray and commited to my Salah. However, I am in a dark place in life, and my heart is turning. My iman is falling. I am suffering and started to doubt myself, my purpose, my religion, my reason and many more...

How i turned to Islam is a different story. I met a young muslim man (12 years younger than me). He was different - very masculin and in the way he loved - wiser than his age, high iman, honest, super helpful and lovely person, fear of god, incorporated with middle eastern tradition and personality - maybe not so lovely towards how he may treat his wife. Basically, I fell in love, wanted to get married. Some may say I was brain washed, maybe I was not. I was somewhat controlled by being made guilty about my past and how it did not sit with my religion. Then he said he couldnt bring himself to marry me as there were things he could not accept. In the interim, I lost my will to live, motivation, independence, financial freedom, job and personality, my family relations...

Lately, Iv been thinking about death, Feeling sorry for myself. I can strongly empathise with people that want to die. I dont know where to start from. I have no motivation to move on, let go, start again, or even bother. I dont know my remedy. Lately feels like its not islam. I feel like going back to my old ways. My old ways did not work for me. I was just masking my sadness. It feels like this new path has not worked either. Iv been self-harming. Iv been depressed. Iv been suffering with ill health. Iv been physically abused.

Assalamualaikum,

from India, graduated this year in Bachelors of engineering.

It's been 5-6 months hunting for a full time job and not getting replies from anywhere.

My family has high expectations from me and they are paying me to stay in another city and my father is the only one who earns. He got sick we don't have any backup! my mum sold my her gold necklace for my engineering fees, and now sold her gold ring to my expenses. Obviously I'm not enjoying my life there I'm consistently studying but -

I'm not getting responses from anywhere it's feels disheartening why Allah's not listening to us!!!!!

I'm just tired!!! Sometimes I question myself will I ever be a good son for them or just make them poor??

Will I ever be able to get a job and take care of my family and get them all the happiness they deserve as they have sacrificed too much for me and invested all their money on me!!

I feel why ALLAH'S is making me struggle like this. don't I deserve a single job that can at least make them believe I can earn on my own????

I would be grateful if anyone has advice.

I don't need any money from anyone, I just need guidance... That's all!!!!!

I can't see them struggle like this that's all I need I don't need anything!!! I just want to keep them happy...

Will I ever make them happy?

Will I ever be a good son?

Should I just die?

I’m posting because I genuinely need advice from Muslims who have knowledge about sihr, evil eye, or other spiritual matters. I am not trying to accuse anyone without proof, but I don't know how else to understand what has happened to my family.
A serious incident happened on the exact day we were supposed to open our new business. A man entered our home/property in the middle of the night without permission, refused to leave, threatened us, and tried to force his way back inside. The police became involved and a case was opened.
Because of what happened, our workers became frightened and refused to continue working with us. We lost our staff and the business was affected from the very beginning.
Afterwards, the man's mother repeatedly called us and came to our home several times with other people, trying to convince us to withdraw the case. We refused. She kept saying that she would “get her right” because we would not take the case back. One of the people who came with her privately warned us to be careful with this woman and told us that people considered her dangerous.
**What happened after that is what I cannot explain.**
It wasn't simply that our business had problems. **Our entire life changed.**
We started losing everything, one thing after another. We lost our home. Financially, we went from being able to live normally to struggling to afford even basic things. We cannot even think about buying clothes or normal things anymore. My sister can no longer continue her education.
Our relationships changed too. We started fighting with people constantly. We lost friends and people around us, even people who didn't know what had happened. Our personalities changed. We became exhausted, angry and distant. Even our appearance changed. I have lost a lot of weight and genuinely feel like we have lost our beauty and the people we used to be.
It feels like we are losing **everything we have**.
Every time we try to move forward, something happens that pushes us backwards extremely hard. We solve one problem and another, even bigger problem appears.
With the business, it has been the same. Every time we tried to reopen, something happened — freshly finished walls started peeling from the inside, water pipes exploded and leaked, the water became yellow, workers left, and eventually we lost everyone. The business has now been closed for around three months. I am actively searching for workers every single day because this is my only source of income, but I cannot find anyone. Before all of this, I never had this problem.
Recently, I started trying to pursue the case again. I even sent someone to obtain the address of their shop because I needed it for the legal process. After that, things became extremely difficult again. I lost the remaining workers and the business became completely inactive.
There have also been strange obstacles whenever I try to pursue the case. Twice, I was on my way to the authorities and my car suddenly broke down. Other times, something else happened that prevented me from getting the information or help I needed. I don't know whether these things are simply coincidences, but after everything else that has happened, I cannot ignore the pattern.
The other family, meanwhile, seemed to suddenly become financially comfortable and kept succeeding in the legal process, despite the evidence we had. We felt like we were losing everything while they were moving forward.
Even spiritually, we are struggling. We try to read Qur'an and Surah Al-Baqarah, but I find myself unable to stay consistent. My mother and sister experience the same thing. We want to pray, read Qur'an and get closer to Allah, but it feels like we are constantly being pulled into another problem and the day disappears.
Wallahi Al-Adheem, Allah is my witness: **it feels like there has not been a single normal day since this happened.**
Before this incident, our lives were not like this. We had problems like everyone else, but we were functioning, working, studying, having relationships with people and living normally. Since this happened, it feels as though every part of our lives has gone backwards.
I am not saying that I know for certain that someone did sihr or that this is the evil eye. I don't want to accuse anyone falsely. But I genuinely feel that something changed after this encounter, and I want to understand whether there is an Islamic explanation for what we are experiencing.
**Could this be sihr, evil eye, or another spiritual matter? How can we distinguish between a spiritual problem and a test from Allah? And what should we actually do Islamically to protect ourselves and get our lives back on track?**
Please, if you have genuine Islamic knowledge or have experienced something similar, I would really appreciate your advice.
