Every time I get out of salat I make dua afterwards but every time I do I feel like I did something wrong and want to remake it is this normal?
I've reverted to islam a while ago but before that I told my wife and mom I've been thinking about it my mom Said okay like I was joking and my wife whos not Christian or Jewish who I love dearly didn't support me fully because of all the rules like times for sex and what I have to wear and eat and I won't force our 2 yr old son wich I never planned he can make his own choices when he's old enough and id love to teach himhow do I tell them I'm serious about this tell them I can't eat pork etc
I’m trying my hardest to live for the sake of Allah but all I really want to do is sleep and not wake up again. I know it’s trials and to be patient but it’s not that, it’s that I’m in too deep and there’s no getting me out. With the state I’m in, I think Allah has also given up on me.
Greetings to my fellow Muslims. My father died almost 4 years ago and it really affected my family. I was still in middle school when this happened and it was the worst moment in my life. I wanted to ask if you guys could pls make dua for him and me so that I can one day by the will of Allah meet him again in Jannah.
I’m stuck in a state where I’m scared of future poverty and struggles (I REALLY HATE lack of money) due to the way my life is going this year.
And the closer I get to Allah, the more I’m tested with this particular issue which I really can’t bare.
This causes me to be irritated and clouds my gratitude. Causes some depression as well
What do I do about this?
Im in a difficult place in life where i have to choose between love and duty in marriage. Not just duty but also personal comfort and relief. I want the person i love to be happy , i know our personalities are suited but our goals and desires and families are very different. How can i pray to Allah to guide me to make the right decision for both of us?
Please keep me in your duas; I’m going through a tough time right now and really need positive outcomes.
I struggle with waswas and used to struggle too much with urination and stuff. I used to think I have urinary incontinence even though I'm mostly positive I never did. So I realised this like around 4 months ago and so I started doing the process of answering the call of nature and istinja like a normal man would. Now suddenly I felt the need to check if I'm leaking urine or anything else.
So what I did was, after doing istinja, I wiped my private part with a tissue. Then I waited around 20 seconds and checked my private part then and there on the washroom seat itself (I didn't open the private part or anything). Then, I saw that there was like a line of water emerging from the opening of the private part. I'm sure this water or urine that came out actually DID come out and wasnt just inside because I checked with a tissue and the tissue became wet.
So my question basically is in this situation what do I do. I dont think this situation is under the ruling of incontinence because I don't leak urine at random intervals, this happens only after I do istinja. I'm absolutely confused because there's no way for me to stay pure if this water that comes out makes me impure.
Follow up question is just to ask if this water that comes out is normal ? It's not me being delusional because I see it coming. Is this normal for men ?
Maybe this isn't the right place for this, but I could use some advice. I'm younger so I've never been to therapy. A few months ago I had a blog page on instagram and I had chatted with a lot of people online, nothing personal, just casual things. One of those people was some 18yo guy from India and he suddenly opened up to me about being svcidial. I panicked and I kept texting him because I felt like I had to help him. After some time, when he had gotten better, I deleted the page because my mental health got bad. I sent all of the online friends a goodbye message including him and that's the way things ended. I keep feeling like I'll be responsible if someday he commits svicide because one of the reasons why he was like that at first was because his online girlfriend ghosted him and disappeared. I talked to my parents about this a few weeks ago and they lectured me about talking to strangers and told me he is responsible for his own actions and perhaps his intention weren't pure. I did notice some signs that he liked me and that was one of the reasons I had to leave because it was uncomfortable since he's much older. I sought forgivness from Allah, I prayed, made a lot of duas but I still feel guilty and don't know what to do.
Asalam walaikum, I am an Arab Christian that grew up with many Muslims around me and one thing I picked up was that the Torah and Gospels were corrupted at some point and Islam existed before the 7th century but ended up turning into other religions. But what archaeological proof is there to determine that there were Muslims much longer than the 7th century, and that the Torah and Gospels are fake?
Assalamu Alaykum, Today I was approached by this Christian man who asked for my time and then began to tell me about Christianity and the role of Jesus and how he died for their sins and was the son of god. I am not writing this because my faith is shaken but rather because I wasn’t able to give dawah to the man and atleast debate with him because my knowledge is surface level. I would like to gain more knowledge as a Muslim and be able to negate the ideas of those who believe in something other than the oneness of Allah swt and that Isa pbuh was his prophet and not his son. So if someone could point me to sources or tell me themselves about what I could’ve said and what I should know as a Muslim, that would be very helpful.
A commiting suicide, not by using iron (like a knife or so) but by overdoasing on pills a sin? Will i be able to enter paradise?
I just got done cutting off my entire family for disrespecting my and years and years of manipulation and gaslighting. I’m planning on leaving in a few days and I hope they accept me at a shelter and I’ll just go from there. But I need some encouraging messages. Please don’t tell me I shouldn’t have done this because this was my breaking point. What happened last night was my breaking point.
I’ve had persistent neck and head pain that’s getting worse for the last sixth months. Exercise + sleep + hydrating helps but the pain is still pretty bad (sometimes gotta sleep randomly throughout the day or spend an hour or two not doing anything or massaging my head/neck to offset pain).
Caffeine + ibuprofen + allergy meds help offset the pain temporarily with caffeine giving me the best symptom relief but only lasting two hours while 400mg ibuprofen giving me four hours of symptom relief but the pain is still higher than what my baseline was half a year ago (basically no daily pain besides some mild lethargy and nausea).
Anyways this makes it hard to study or focus anywhere longer than an hour unless I use energy drinks, coffee, meds, or I exercise every time the pain comes (I have to lift like super heavy till absolute muscular failure to offset pain symptoms so not really a possibility of doing it multiple times a day).
Her favours and efforts towards me is something I can never pay back….. no matter my upbringing or what type of mom she is blah blah. For the sake of Allah it is my duty to be the best that I can be to her and be Patient!
My question is, why do I physically heat up with my mother? Every time I try and do as we are ordered, I get stuck on petty little things… no matter how hard I try I end up offending or hurting her in some damn way and I feel like absolutely shit! How can I overcome this?
So recently ive been learning about zipfs law, and i was wondering if the Quran follows this sort of principle. I've seen people say that it does follow the law/principle, but zipfs law is more a statistic phenomenon rather than a linguistic one. I've also seen people argue the Quran doesn't follow zipfs law.
Hypothetically, even if the Quran does follow this principle, would that necessarily undermine the Quran?
I have a habit of overthinking things, but if someone more educated on this topic could help, it would be much appreciated
Alsalam alykoum, i got this advice for y'all it helped me to never skip prayers alhamdulilah, So what u gotta do is go on google , search the time of the prayer ur gonna pray next, and go do whudu before that time with like 10min , than u just gotta Keep waiting for salat ,like don't go do something that might make u forget the salat , And that's it , just think that allah is inviting you to come and talk to him and tell him all u want , so don't be late , our lord is inviting us May god guide us all ❤️
I had a disagreement with my mother which made her upset. I admit I was in the wrong and I should’ve listened to her advice but I chose to be selfish and made an impulsive decision. Seeing how it made her feel I instantly felt bad and thought of sitting her down to apologise to her sincerely. I knew it would be awkward as we don’t openly communicate when problems occur and instead she prefers to stay silent and let time pass which I wish wasn’t the case. I wish we could be more open about how we feel and we can both listen to each other open heartedly.
So for the first time in my life I sat her down and expressed that I’m sorry for how I made her feel and I’ll try my best to do better. Instead of receiving a hug or accepting my apology, all I got was her reminding me of all the things I’ve done wrong in the past and the things I don’t do right. I let her speak and didn’t interrupt her once. I was holding back tears as I couldn’t believe I was getting criticised more after apologising instead of receiving forgiveness and being able to reconcile our relationship. I am now completely put off from openly communicating with her about any problems as the first time I tried ended up like this and I’m not sure how I would handle situations like this again. If anyone has dealt with similar experiences or has any advice it would be much appreciated. Jazak’Allah Khair all.
I'm a non-Muslim in America. At my local grocery store, I would guess that roughly 25-50% of the employees, and especially cashiers, are Muslim women. I fairly regularly buy pork and alcohol products there, and every time I do I feel a little twinge of guilt if the cashier is a Muslim. Is it permissible in Islam for a Muslim to sell pork/alcohol? Is it even permissible to touch them? If not, is there an easy way I could be more accommodating to the employees? I know that on a certain level they've made the personal decision to work in a grocery store, but I also understand that sometimes you have to take whatever job you can find. Being a kind person is free and if there's a simple, discreet way that I can make things more comfortable for them I'd be happy to do it. But I also don't want to make things awkward or embarrass them.
Salaam, please give me some experiences.
Keeping it straight to the point.
Why do you guys believe Islam is the right religion? What makes you so sure that Islam is the truth? Do you 100% believe that it is the truth?
I can’t say that this always happens as I have yet to finish the Qur’an, but I’ve noticed this. Any tafsir behind it? Green grapes are my favorite fruit.
I am just here to share my own experience my and my current thoughts. I was born muslim, and have been surrounded mostly by muslims my whole life.
However, for my lack of faith or maybe my own laziness, I lacked in many departments. For the longest time I would rarely pray, skip fasting often during Ramadan, and just sin daily doing the most stupid things that honestly didn’t add any value to my life.
My girlfriend (I am 100% aware that it’s haram, but needed to mention for context), for some reason last week decided to start praying. I was really shocked as I’ve never seen her pray before despite both of us being muslim and honestly, despite our sins, firm believers.
That lit a fire in me, I got up and immediately prayed all the prayers I missed that day and prayed for forgiveness and for God to strengthen my faith.
Since then alhamdulillah I haven’t missed a single prayer and I have been very diligent about it.
Subhanallah guys when I tell you, I genuinely don’t want to sound like those Whatsapp moms lol, but when I tell you EVERY single problem in my life got resolved in the past 2 weeks, I am not exaggerated.
Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah, it is genuinely unbelievable how more at peace I feel and how happier I am now compared to 2 weeks ago.
I am aware that we are only human, and “motivation” to practice Islam can come in waves, but I am doing it this time with a sense of discipline more than motivation. No matter what happens that day I will at least pray all of my 5 prayers on time.
I am now taking steps to make my relationship halal, I have already spoken to her parents and we are planning our marriage insha’Allah
Even before I started praying properly, it is genuinely such a blessing to have been born in Islam. The values this religion had given me have taken me out of situations where I could’ve genuinely lost my life.
For anyone reading this that was in the same situation as I was, start now today, just pick up your prayer mat, do your wudu and go pray. Islam teaches us to be strong willed, caring, loving, faithful and compassionate. Nothing in this life will bring you peace more than prayer. And even in hard times, pray, this dunya is only temporary.
Allah bless all of you and Allah strengthen our iman everyday.
Can we make Wudhu with lash clusters on? Is it permissible? ( not the same such lash extensions)
Can someone tell me the most correct view of this please? Barakallahu feekum
To preface, I am an agnostic and I have seen a post from somewhere in which the OP mentions how, within the Quranic taxonomy, there are four categories of people: believers, disbelievers, hypocrites, and those who have not heard of the message. But there is no mention whatsoever about "honest disbelievers," who, despite their best efforts, try to look into Islam and the truth objectively but still cannot wrap their minds around it. I can understand many of you will object to this and say "But if you search sincerely, you will find Islam". However, I feel like this is a dogmatic claim with a presupposition of Islam being true, and this could be practically applied to all beliefs. People try to begin their search for the truth and end up on different paths with no fault of their own. They might have some presupposed dogma, some sociological factors, imperfect information, etc. that may cause them to arrive at a different version of the truth, which is really human when you think of it. Do they still end up in the Islamic hell? Also, does the term kafiruun predominantly apply to disbelievers who know the truth yet deny it? Thank you very much, looking forward to insightful discussions in the thread.
As Salam Wa 3eleikoum. So I (F) noticed when I was in the toilet that I had some kind of white spot on my underwear and thought yeah I’ll take it off when I’m finished. But then I totally forgot and prayed with it and realized after. But when I checked again I realized I couldn’t actually tell if there was really any nejassa or just my eyes playing tricks or maybe an old king of stain that stuck even after washing it . So now I am wondering if I should be praying Maghreb again or not? (Maghreb is already out)
So my bank account earns interest there is no way to opt out. Its 1%, now what do i with the money do i withdraw and throw it out or donate to the mosque? Can i even donate it?
I’m female and have a few ear piercings around my ear different ones and have always wondered about nipple piercings and if it’s haram to get them. Obviously they wouldn’t be shown or anything but I’ve seen a mixture of views on this some say it isn’t haram and some say it is and some say it’s just disliked by some scholars. Obviously again they would be concealed and not shown or anything like that so no one would know but I was just curious in general if it is or isn’t. Thank you 😊
Assalamualaikum everyone, I just did zuhr prayer and in second rakah I forgot to do Tashahhud position so at the end of third rakah I realized then did it at the third rakah, then went to fourth and after fourth I did extra two sujood. Is my salah still valid? (Sorry if this is a obvious question or not I’m a revert and new to Islam)
Assalamualaikum!
What does Islam say about pre-Adamites & general life before Adam (AS)?
I reverted, though this question has lingered for a while... I don't ask it out of disbelief, instead curiosity, as I get myself acclimated to historical Islamic timestamps.
My apologies if the flair is inaccurate.
If I told you to tell me about your favourite person, you'd be talking for hours, right? If I tell you tell me about Allah, who is Allah? Would you last even 2 minutes?🌹🌹🌹 If not, then we really need to check our Emaan. Knowledge of Allah is the greatest knowledge of all sciences and subjects. Your Rabb has 99 names, how many do you UNDERSTAND? 🌹How do you expect to love your Rabb enough to leave that sin, to be consistent, to be among the people of Taqwa, when YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW your Rabb? 🌹
Honestly, GO. Get to know your Rabb. That's really dissapointing that an ummah doesn't know their Allah, their Rabb?🌹🌹
Help me with youtube links that can help to understand Quran better.
Hi everyone, I’m a 16-year-old girl, and I’ve been trying my best to live a modest and righteous life. My parents often tell me I’m the perfect daughter, Alhamdulillah, and I try to live up to that by balancing my faith, studies, and character.
I dress very modestly to the point that if I decided to wear the hijab, I wouldn’t even have to change my outfits—they’re already hijabi-appropriate. I make it a priority to read 10 pages of the Quran every day, pray all five prayers on time, and fast the three white days of each month.
I’m also very good at school, and Inshallah, I’m planning to go into dentistry school in the future. Even though I’m just 16 and don’t have much money, I still try to give to the poor whenever I can, even if it’s a small amount.
I don’t talk to guys at all, don’t post anything on social media, and I avoid gossip completely. I also don’t cuss or use bad words at all. I don’t listen to music except for the snippets that pop up on Instagram reels, and I listen to all the morning and evening athkar regularly.
Alhamdulillah, I’m not unattractive—if I wanted to date, I could, but I’ve chosen not to because I want to stay true to my faith and values. I’m focused on doing what’s right for my deen and my akhirah.
But here’s the thing—I’m not a hijabi. I often wonder: Am I still on the right path? Will I still go to heaven?
I’m genuinely trying my best to stay close to Allah, but sometimes I overthink whether what I’m doing is enough. If anyone has any advice or reassurance, I’d love to hear it.
Jazakum Allahu khair.
Assalamualikum As a Muslim, what do you do when you face continuous problems in your life ?
I am a female and it has been almost a year since my nikaah. Before that, I was engaged for four years. During our engagement, I discovered that my husband had an affair with his cousin (from his mother’s side), who was pregnant at the time and she took pills and abort it. Despite this, they still wanted to continue their physical relationship. He only proposed to me while I was in college, speaking directly to my father about marriage. When I caught him, he apologized and sought forgiveness, and eventually, we got married. Since then, I’ve faced many challenges. His parents dislike me because I exposed his cheating to both our families. I find them disrespectful and lacking in values, even though they pray five times a day. They seem neither God-fearing nor modest in their behavior. My husband gives me a monthly allowance (30% of his salary), half of which I save by investing in gold for our future. However, his parents want that money too. For the past six months, I’ve been pleading with my husband to complete our ruksathi (the formal tradition of a bride moving into her husband’s home), but he keeps avoiding the topic. A few months ago, I found out I was pregnant. Instead of supporting me, he was scared to tell his parents and pressured me to keep it a secret. When I refused, he began insisting I get an abortion, saying he wasn’t ready for a child and that his parents would be upset because ruksathi hadn’t been done. The constant stress and lack of support from him led to a miscarriage. That night, I was in unbearable pain and begged him to stay with me, but he refused, fearing his parents' reaction. He even told me not to inform my own parents and left me to go through it alone. Now he says he doesn’t want a child in 2025 or 2026 because of the ongoing conflicts between us, yet he won’t admit that his parents are the real reason. His parents manipulate him emotionally—his father cries, saying I’m taking him away, and his mother stops talking to him whenever he visits me. Even though we live just 10 minutes apart, he only visits for a few hours before rushing back to them. When I beg him to stay, he refuses. I’m afraid he might leave me. I’ve repeatedly asked my father to discuss ruksathi with his father, but my father says, “You’re already here in front of me. Let them come and talk.” But they won’t. ( also after my marriage he’s constantly having business losses) recently he lost 50Lacs which he’s going through a lot) Now his family is planning to move to another city where his cousin (the one he had an affair with) lives. I feel stuck and helpless. Recently, I discovered I’m two weeks pregnant again. I haven’t told anyone yet because I’m terrified of how he will react. Whenever I bring up the topic of having a child, he tells me to shut up and not talk about it. My mother advises me to stay distant from him to avoid getting pregnant, as she fears he might leave me for his parents if ruksathi doesn’t happen. She worries I’ll end up alone with a child, making remarriage difficult. But I don’t want to remarry—I just want a loving, healthy family. And my parents are really amazing Alhamdulliah they have listened to me understood me and supported me, and I have a elder brother hes unmarried and my parents want him to get married too, but because of me being at home… he’s not thinking of marriage. I’ve complete my studies and not working… I’m torn. I desperately want this baby, but I’m scared of being a single mother and raising a child without support. Should I keep the baby and tell him, or consider an abortion since his family refuses to move forward with ruksathi? I feel so alone, and all I’ve ever wanted is a family of my own. also I have anxiety and overthinking issues and constantly health issues, and under weight too. Please guide me on what to do… Allah should be pleased by my actions…
It’s paralyzing to think that one day he was here, and now he’s not. I was closer to him (typical daddy’s girl) than my mom.
Salam my brothers and sisters. lately my life has been going down the hill yet i try to stay positive and put up a smile but sometimes, i compare myself alot to my best friend. her life is so different from mine. it’s like everything i want is in her. her studying a major i wanted yet couldn’t get into because of many reasons, the way she gets friends so easily while i’m struggling to even make more than two friends, the way she seems so close with Islam while i’m struggling, the way her life seems busy while mine feels so slow and just so much more.
i really am happy for her. truly. but as much as i am proud of her, i keep feeling that itch of envy and i hate it. it eats me up so much that sometimes i begin to tear up or even cry at the most random times. i know it’s wrong but what can i do to rid of it?
This is probably gonna stand as one of the dumbest questions asked, but my dad always said that "if you're gonna do something, become the best at it". And I'm aiming for the world championship!
I reverted a couple years back, after having had some tough years in prison, on drugs and homeless. And i ended up with s bunch of bad tattoos, anda few I did myself, and I'm kinda reminded of that even at the completely lowest point of my existence and completely inebriated. I still managed to finish all 3 og them. One is a rifle for my fallen brothers snd sisters everywhere i served regardless of flag. Second is a bleeding snowflake, symbolising how we're all unique both good and bad but regardless of how divided we are. We're wll judt gonna melt into the same afterlife and spend it in peace as one unit instead of a billion different drops just crammed over eachother. Stay together and we'll float easier.
3 is a cross i took with to of what was my best friends. It's a cross. Which they later used to promote neo-nazi crap that I stood behind for a while, as a stupid uneducated and thinking I knew everything about everyone. And I became a raging racist, anti-islam, we were even against the ones who had the exact same opinions but they let in Albanians, Croats, Serbs, and the fucking chechcens. And as a Bosnian it's my only task in life to hate most of them. Told to give them a chance which I did. Few days later they show up with Thai girls. They couldn't even be racists without messing up, I was with officially the dumbest people around.
I got out of that crap and changed my circle to the opposite around my own age who smoked weed. And after having been through 6 years of sexual molestation, physical violence st school wlth teachers more or less condoning it, and my only rolemodel was the angry ex-bully victim who became a kickboxing phenom and happened to be with the same club. So he brought me to a bar-hang (one club has an open house and everyone's invited. Small CC at the door we send 80% to charity and the rest went to keeping the house from falling apart. Suddenly i had a prospect vest and life was nice since you sign a literal contract with the club that ypu refuse to touch any substance other than alcohol or "approved supplements" which was prescription stuff, steroids and melanin. Then we went for the Europe run, and my chapter had more cocaine with them than I've seen irl. Even the national president said "Clubhouse rules aren't road rules". Snd the hypocrisy was like a kick in the taint. But scared of being alone and in bad stand (the club will attack you on site. Every single time, harass family, or fine you for the rest of your life".
I was in one the big 5 (Hells Angels aka HA aka 81, Bandidos, Mongols and The Outlaws aka SYLO aka 15) where this id usually how it goes unless you're going to jail or did something big for the club. Then they'll even be as friendly as you like when you're back. And we had a little situation where our national pres lives and someone shot at his house. I happened to be close by with another prospect, and whoopsie fucksy we pushed the wrong csr off the road and beat up some random 20 year olds.
I got 6 years in prison and did 4, 7 years sfter i took the shahada. But the cross still bothers me and i hate having to lie and say "i just liked it"... I know tattoos aren't permissible, but is there ANYTHING I can cover it with to permanently write over that chapter with a brand new one? Send DM if you don't want to reply publicly.
And I apologise for forcing you to read it al, whoever made it down here, you're the kind of friend everyone needs 🙏🏼
As you might know that telling your sins publicly is prohibited or unlikeable in Islam and Lying is also prohibited. But what if someone asks. For example someone drinks But no one knows and someone asks him so you drink? So should he tell his sin? Sorry if my question sounds weird. It's just a thought came in my mind.
Assalamualaikum! I have just booked my flight to Jeddah and am trying to figure out if I should do Makkah or Medina first. Most folks recommend Medina first but I only have one Friday to spend and am trying to figure out what would be a better experience. Would you recommend doing Jummah at Makkah or Medina and if so where should I go?
