Wondering if anyone can relate/has advice
I have OCD symptoms and for the past few months, I’ve been trying my best to turn to Allah (swt) whenever I’m struggling with something rather than doing compulsions. A main reason for this is that I had an episode during the fall and did make dua but also gave into my compulsion. I ended up finding out that the thing I was so worried about was actually nothing serious at all and I shouldn’t have done the compulsion. That was a lesson to me to trust Allah (swt) and his guidance rather than just listening to my head
Unfortunately though, I’m now stuck in another episode and struggling with tawakkul. I got upset about it today and made dua for guidance/sign and literally got a Quran ayah about guidance on social media right after. But of course I had thoughts come up like “oh that doesn’t apply to me, maybe that’s not actually a sign” 💀 lol how do I fight this? I’ve been trying so hard but the constant feeling that I’m doing something wrong/making excuses/misinterpreting signs is always there

Salaam everyone
I am a Muslimah in the deep south, USA. I recently, due to Ramadan and some amazing things thst occurred in Ramadan, have grown closer to Allah and am so thankful.
I've wanted to start wearing hijab but have already experienced aggressive behaviors from people and its making me so afraid to go outside.
for context, I am a single parent and none of my family is Muslim and they definitely do not appreciate hijab and wouldn't feel comfortable being seen in public with me wearing it.
all this to say... I feel scared and I do not have any support navigating amd building strength to begin wearing it outside of masjid events and praying. I would sincerely love to. however I am so fearful and afraid for my safety that I no longer want to go outside and I am extremely hypervigilant of my surroundings when I do wear it, for my safety.
the women I know who are successful in wearing hijab fall into several categories that make it possible for them
wealthy wives who dont need to work
medical professionals - society has no choice but to accept them due to extreme need
professors-- around educated people
recipients of Social security income, so they do not need to work or try to find work while observing hijab
I am looking for a middle ground and support to begin the process of becoming a full time hijabi who works and can become fearless wearing hijab in the Bible belt deep south.
thanks in advance. jazak Allah khairan

My depression is getting too much for me to handle and deal with. I genuinely think about ending myself life every single day, there is nothing left for me in this world. I’ve been thinking about it ever since i knew we have the option of ending ourselves. I can’t do this anymore, i really cannot. The only thing that’s stopping me is Allah, i do not think i’m ready to face him because i don’t think i’m a good muslim, just like i’ve disappointed everyone in my life i think Allah won’t/is pleased by me either. I want to end it, i can’t live like anymore, I just want to know if Allah will forgive me? Would forgiveness be possible in my situation?

I got my exam results today. I had been making dua for these marks for so long especially during Ramadan, Tahajjud, and almost every prayer. When I saw my result I was happy… but it was 2 marks less than what I had asked for.
In that moment I felt disappointed and even said something I regret that Allah didn’t give me what I wanted so he didn’t keep his promise and so I won’t pray shukrana salat.
An hour later I had an Islamic class, and the topic was about Surah Fussilat about how we should never be ungrateful or doubtful towards Allah. It hit me so deeply. I felt like Allah was directly reminding me.
I realized my mistake, prayed shukr, and felt at peace again.
Maybe those 2 marks weren’t meant for me because something better is planned. I have another exam coming up and now my trust in Allah is even stronger.
Allah is truly the best of planners.
