Why does Allah never test some people?

By asking this question i am in no way being ungrateful to what Allah has blessed me with but i admit my life has been very difficult since childhood with lots of trauma, suicidal thoughts etc. And one thing i dont really understand about islam is why some muslims have perfect lives, and have everything in this world while others are tested so extremely to the point of suicide?

I understand that people will say wealth, health etc is also a test but i am not talking about that, i am talking about psychological tests that break you down completely and seem to destroy your life and the way u see everything, why is it that some people experience this their whole lives while others die without having gone through any sort of emotional hardship in their whole life, is it because Allah does not see any benefit in testing some people?

I mean i was kinda thinking Allah is very generous and kind and loves us so i think it might be because by testing some people in that way it only hurts them and doesnt bring any sort of benefit to them so maybe thats why?

As-salamu alaykum, I'm new to Islam and am trying to understand the basics of prayers and such, but one thing that I need is a praying mat to start off with. I'm looking for one that I can use at home, but the problem is that when I searched on Google on what it shouldn't have, it says 'animals or people, mosques and Ka'ba, occult symbols (understandably) and "complex designs".

I don't really understand what it means by the last bit, but I do want to be fact checked if the following I mentioned was wrong or not. However, I see a lot of mats using mosques or the Ka'ba on the designs, which confuses me. Thank you if you know any mats that I should choose instead.

Assalamualaikum,

In a Hadith Qudsi, Allah mentions that a servant continues to draw near through voluntary عبادات until Allah loves him, and then becomes his hearing, sight, hands, and feet.

I’m reflecting on this deeply:

Is this describing complete alignment of a person’s will with divine guidance?

How should this be understood without falling into literal or incorrect interpretations?

Would love thoughtful reflections grounded in authentic understanding.

ALLAH is the true Deity; there is no god except Him, and none deserves worship except Allah, the One, the Unique. He possesses the attributes of absolute perfection. There is nothing like unto Him, even though He has affirmed for Himself attributes such as life, knowledge, power, hearing, sight, face, the two hands, might, greatness, beauty, exaltedness, and self-sufficiency... and other attributes established in the Qur’an and the Sunnah that befit the majesty of His Noble Face and the greatness of His authority. The creation cannot comprehend or imagine Him, and they do not encompass anything of His knowledge except what He wills — Glorified is He.

Allah, Glorified be He, was alone in eternity, distinct by Himself, and there was nothing besides Him — neither water, nor the Throne, nor anything else — as He, the Most High, said: “He is the First” [Al-Hadid: 3].

Then He, Glorified be He, created the Throne and the water, and He created the Pen and the Preserved Tablet, and He created seven heavens and seven earths.

And His Throne was upon the water, and He is established over it in a manner that befits His greatness. He wrote in the Record everything, and He commanded the Pen — which is one of His creations, the true nature of which we do not know — to write the decrees of all things until the Hour is established. So it wrote, by Allah’s perfect knowledge, what was, what will be, and what would have been had it been. Then whatever Allah willed came to be, and whatever He did not will did not come to be. Then He says concerning what He wills: “Be,” and it is.

To be continued...

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
