I'm going through an issue right now that has layers to it. I'm making isthikhara and dua in general to Allah SWT to guide me through this time overall and in each step asking specifically.

My question has 3 parts to it:

  1. Can I ask for an overall guidance for the problem or should I ask for each layer as I tackle it.

  2. Also should I ask generally for the problem itself or should I specifically talk about each layer as it comes?

  3. Let's just say I feel and based on my actions I have been a terrible Muslim for the last while. And I understand what I am going through is more of a test than a punishment because it had made me realize I want to get closer to Allah SWT and during the bad times I have always felt guilty. So I'm grateful that Allah SWT has given me the opportunity to return to him. However, despite me working towards fixing myself is it ok to constantly expect Allah SWT to help me with my problem? I don't want to believe that I'm trying to be a good Muslim just so I can have this problem resolved but what if I am? I genuinely want to be better but what if I return to my old ways after Allah SWT helps me out of this? I will try my best not to but I'm worried.

I want to balance the fear of Allah SWT anger and hope in his mercy.
