Salam everyone!

So throughout my childhood me and my siblings have noticed little innocent shady lies but also some big ones my oldest siblings accuses them of that they have never admitted to. I have never known what the truth is because they both are so intense when it comes to that topic. I’m the only sibling who still lives at home since I’m the youngest. Since I am the youngest as well it’s been tough for me to see most truth inside my household bc there’s a big gap between me and my siblings.

This morning my dad was basically gaslighting me, saying he never said something when he clearly did, I even asked my mom and she agreed with me and that’s when my dad finally put his guard down and said we can still do whatever he was first not admitting to, and I said wallah I don’t care if you are busy then we don’t have to I just want you to tell the truth. Then my mom got so mad and said we don’t say that stuff. It just reminded me of all the past times as well when we would even catch them lying but we weren’t allowed to call them out. It seems a bit unfair so wanted to see if it’s actually haram to call out/accuse your parents of lying.

Thank you!

Dear friends, for a long time I am planning to do something for the elderly people of the community. The rampant loneliness, and sadness that I have witnessed in elderly people is heart ranching. This is my last semester in university and am currently looking fir ways to help them especially seriously considering to open a non profit for their help. But before jumping into this new arena; I am scared. Scared of failure. What are your guys perspective. I live in California

Salam! I just had an inquiry about you know how people say that their children should always respect their parents? However, what happens if the parent makes a bunch of hurtful comments and the kid is suppose to be silent? I never understood how kids are just supposed to quiet and calm, while the parents get to say whatever. Kids are still human; they have emotions, so why do the parents always use the rule of respect to shut them down? I don't know how to feel about this, I feel yes parents have authority to parents the kid, but not be so rude and outright mean.

Even after communicating, the parent's never listen, they always think they are right. Communication should be understanding both sides, but if one person just insits you are wrong, like what is even the point. I just depise how the whole system and brought up, it's not fair.

As the title says, I’d really appreciate any advice I can get! I prayy 5 prayers, try to be on my best behaviour (had a history of using foul language, bad friend groups etc., which are no more because I wanted to make amends in life), and try to learn more about Islam every passing day. I’d love to get inputs with things in aspects of Deen and the Dunya. I’m currently a computer science major, on track to graduate next year in sha Allah, so i currently have jobs and grad school on my mind.

Jazakallah khair!

I was in a Hospital waiting to get admitted for Surgery (This is a Govt Hospital in India), In the OPD Ward (Where a doctor sees patients), there was a young poor couple ,in mid-20’s, their child was born with cleft palate and they were waiting also for their turn, that child started crying because of hunger, and his parents started preparing milk, they both contributed in that, as children born with cleft plate have trouble sulking mild, they have to be fed with pipe, (No, they didn’t had that special bottle, they were poor). I really felt bad for that couple, they were going to start their lives and suddenly their world turned upside down. There was a sense of sadness on their faces. They were young but that sadness had taken their youth away.

Now, when I was scrolling my social media feed, I came across another couple whom I know , on vacation with their child in Bali. They were enjoying their time. That couple were sitting on a beach, while their child was making a sand castle.

And I thought with myself. Allah why so injustice, on one side there is a couple who cant afford basic amenities and on other side, there’s a couple who have got everything from house, wealth, health and not to be bothered about anything.

Maybe there’s a wisdom behind this, that I can never understand. But sometimes when I think about it, I ask Allah swt? Why me? Why them? Why not those who do wrong? I never got the answer, may be in afterlife I will.

Hi, I was curious about the teachings about Sufism, I heard somethings and wanted to know the actual truth about this from people who practise Sufism, untill now I just know that this is a branch of Islam practised by many Muslims, a branch which prioritizes Islam and the relegious practises over everything else and what I was really confused about was the Fana and Baqa things, thanks for your help though.

In my country there is a tradition of laying flowers on a monument on the 21st of February to show respect to the martyrs. I personally have never done this (not because of any particular reason, there was never a need for it to be done) but recently I was talking to a friend about this and she told me this was shirk. Is this true?

(I am not saying this isn’t I honestly have no idea, I just want to know whether this is shirk or not so I can warn people in the future if it’s ever necessary)

Asalamu alaikum
I see alot of muslims argue that the ability to reason is from god and is not some random chemical process. some atheists argue that if a person gets brain damage their ability to think is less so it is a chemical process after all, Hamza tzortzis give an answer to that, but i didnot understand can anyone explain it in simple terms.

Today, when praying behind an Imam, and during a certain Tashahhud, I vaguely remember saying Wassalawatu wattawbat as in Tawbah (or something like that), instead of wattayibat. The problem is, I don't remember of which Tashahhud I did this, wether in the first (obligatory) or second (pillar). To make matters worse, I don't even remember of which prayer this happend. What should I do? It's already way past isha and I don't remember of which prayer it was

Hi everyone, I need advice. I feel like a failure,freak and you a loser in this world, nothing good has ever really happened to me. Alhamdulillah, I am healthy, my parents are still alive, and I have food and water and a bed to sleep in. I’m truly grateful for that. But aside from that, I’ve never experienced much good in life. I feel like the biggest loser, freak and failure and it seems like everyone around me makes it clear that I am one. Why should Allah let someone like me to enter Jannah? Why would He care. I I feel like since good things have never happened why would I receive something good on judgment day (which is Jannah) He doesn’t need me, but I need Him.I’m a quiet person and pray 5x but I’m not that righteous I try to stay away from sins. Will I really be a loser in this world and in the Hereafter?

As-salamu Alykum. I'm a muslim raised in a muslim family. Growing up my parents always wanted me to be a better muslim but I didn't care about islam. We were the the only muslim family in my town to I wanted nothing to to do with islam. Astugfurallah I even hated that I was muslim. Islam felt like a prison to me. I felt like I was never good enough, and thought iwas just going to hell so there wasn't a Point in trying. So I gave up.

Then 2.5 years ago I had a tramatic experience and afterwards became deeply religious, like I never had before.

The problem was, because I didn't care about Islam my entire life I didn't learn about Islam, I knew nothing. So in a matter of a few months I tried being the perfect muslim and naturally it was exteamly overwhelming. Everything has rules and regulations and it was so much to learn.

I also have OCD, and as many of you know, ocd and weak islamic knowledge aren't a good mix. Long story short it was horrible, I had a fear of najas (ritual impurities.)

And practicing islam was a nightmare for me, I was terrified constantly that I may have touched something That May have touched something that may have touched something that may have had najas on it so my Salah was invalid. It's may sound funny or illogical but rest assured, it's a nightmare. Ocd is a nightmare, and me trying to learn islam to quicky by myself was just fuel to the fire.

At the worst point My anxiety got so bad that I was getting a few hours sleep and crying constantly. I was scared. I thought Allah was out to get me and put me in hell.

Anyways after about a year of practicing islam strongly. I slowly fell off my Deen over that last year. And have just completely fallen off and given up. And the worst part is- my life is more peaceful now. I'm not scared all the time. Recently I have had this feeling like a calling back to islam but the thing is I'm scared because I don't want It to be like the last time I practiced islam which was stressful. I feel like im actively trying to not fall back towards islam.

I want to fall back in love with Islam It's a great religion and I love Allah. I really do. But im scared it will be a stressful nightmare again.

Advise me. Help me out brothers and sisters.

Assalamualaikum I have been alone all my life. i am not a bad looking guy im decent and im tall but no girl has ever been interested in me. i have had a complicated relationship with islam, until a year ago i barely ever prayed. I have abused cannabis and alchohol since i became a teenager. I have sinned all my life and i believe this is my punishment

I now try to pray regularly and try to do nafl prayer whenever possible. for Shab e barat i prayed 100 rakat nafl with 10 surah ikhlas per rakat, twice. once the night before and again the night of shab e barat. I prayed to have someone. i dont wish to sin. i wish for companionship, someone to know and marry them. Am i going to be forced to be alone for my past sins?

Quick FYI, I am not writing this post to create conflict I am currently reading a variety of religious books and trying to better myself with the wisdom contained within them, if anything I say here comes across as ignorant or disrespectful please correct me and teach me more about the subject as I was raised Christian (agnostic now) so my exposure to Islam is very limited.

What is Alah's objective or end goal? is there something huwa (Am I using this correctly?) gains from the faith/love his followers provide huwa?

Also is there a better site for me to speak to followers of islam as for a english only reader i find it difficult to understand a lot of the context and also I have a couple friends who are muslim and would like to be less ignorant of their faith and beliefs.

I converted to Islam from Hindu; it's been more than 10 years now. Never prayed salah; I'm ashamed by that. I have no excuse for that. Me being born from an orthodox Hindu family, it is very hard to follow Islam. Now I got some privacy from my family; in fact, my mother supports me. even she is interested in knowing Islam. Please guide me; I just ordered a Quran with an English translation. I'm ready for this year's Ramadan, inshallah. I need to know some basics, brothers and sisters. Like, can I pray Salah by watching videos from online while praying because I'm very new? I'm very ashamed now, like it's been 10 years; I don't even know the basics.

I’ve always been kind of overall dumb. I lack common sense sometimes, I don’t pay attention a LOT and I have ADHD, I take adderall but it doesn’t really help. I don’t understand how to do certain things, and if I do it takes me such a long time and I start feeling extremely overwhelmed and have so much anxiety in me that I feel like screaming in front of everyone.

I had a midterm that I didn’t get to finish, I hate talking and thinking about this again but it was and still is driving me absolutely insane. I wasn’t the only one either necessarily, I know some people rushed towards the end because they didn’t have enough time. I get it, im not the only one but im 99% sure I was behind the most out of everyone else. I should be able to pass my class still but I really needed that A, but I am more frustrated at the fact that I take FOREVER to complete assignments in general.

EVEN with the help of ChatGPT, im still slower than most people! One of my classmates, she doesn’t seem to know what they want to do with their career, or has any internships or anything, somehow completed assignments so much faster than I do. Even when I rush im still slower than her. A lot of it has to do with the fact that I don’t want to copy what ChatGPT says word for word because I still make my answers as human as I can and sometimes do it myself, which is obviously good, but even if we are at the same pace it doesn’t matter I STILL struggle.

This is one of the biggest reasons im so depressed and so stressed out. I’m trying to seek therapy and/or look into any anxiety medication, because I was so upset after my midterm was over that after I waited 30 uncomfortable minutes on the subway back to where I parked, I legitimately started screaming and bursting into tears when I get in my car. I’ve always, ALWAYS been slow, whether it’s understanding material or completing it, I am slow as hell and im just so sick of it.

I made a post similar to this 2 weeks ago, but I go deep into detail with the other personal issues of my life.

I come from a culture where men do not have female friends on social media, and women do not have male friends. I’m curious about how others who married a revert wife have dealt with this. How did you find a balance between her past and Islamic values? Did she distance herself from her male friends, and how did that process go? Any experiences or advice would be greatly appreciated!

When I ask why there's so much evil in this world, I'm often told that it's bc of free will. But why must animals suffer? Whether its in the hands of other animals, bc of the environment or from diseases. Even if they get compensated in the afterlife, there's no reason for them to suffer in the first place. Someone pls explain

I was in a relationship with someone. Yes not halal and i regret it but i loved that person with all of me. Marriage talks were happening. They broke up with me citing some reasons. I did not pray before that. At all, i would miss all prayers and regret it and would just pray during ramadan. I have gotten close to Allah, praying and even doing Tahajjud and fasting because i like it and its extra form of ibadat for me.

I am thankful to them for this. I pray for them to come back, to have all of the good in the world placed in them and for them to come back and for it to become halal, for them to become my naseeb and fo us to have a happy and peaceful marriage. I pray for them in tahajjud crying my eyes out, i try to do any wazaif i come across but my heart still thinks tahajjud is the best way. I think it will happen, even if its not what is good for me i ask Allah to make it good for me. Is that okay? Allah can do anything. Sometimes I am so scared that this will not happen and i fear that this uncertainty would make my dua not as strong. I just, i think i just need some validation and confidence from here.

Assalam Alaykum everyone, I posted here a while back talking about apostasy now i'm curious if for example someone reposted kufr stuff on their tiktok account and repented later, lost their email to the account so worked a lot to find their account and couldnt find it

Would it count against them still and would they still be a kaffir or sinner?

I pray in the morning and before going to bed most of the time, but I don’t perform my five daily prayers. Am I still considered a Muslim if I pray once or twice a day, or am I considered a kafir for not performing my five daily prayers?

P.S. I’m not performing my five daily prayers because I’m extremely exhausted, which is basically laziness.

Salam Alaekum,

I recently returned from Umrah with my wife, our 2-year-old daughter, and my wife's parents. I like to share my experience in hopes that it helps others planning a similar journey.

eVISA and Airline Tickets

  • Application: I applied for the Umrah eVISA using the only legitimate and official website: ksavisa.sa. (There are other options like the Nusuk app, but this is the only 100% official source.)
  • Process: The application was very straightforward. Once I paid the online fee, the eVISA was sent to my email immediately. It felt almost too fast at first, but it was indeed correct!
  • Multiple Applications: You can apply for multiple people (e.g., family members) from the same account. I applied for both my wife and my daughter using my own account.

Airline Tickets

  • I booked my flights with Turkish Airways (I wanted to increase my Miles points, lol!).
  • My itinerary was from Munich to Madinah, and then from Madinah back to Munich.

Trip Planning

  • Our entire trip lasted 9 days.
  • We spent the first few days in Madinah and then moved to Makkah.
  • Since we landed in Madinah at 12:30 AM with a 2-year-old, I booked an airport hotel for one night to rest and avoid exhaustion.

Hotels

Madinah

  • Hotel: I stayed at Bosphorus Al Madinah
  • Location: It is located very near Masjid-e-Nabawi—a 5 to 10-minute walk.

Makkah

  • Hotel: I stayed at Makarem Ajyad Makkah
  • Location: This hotel is extremely close to the Haram (just a 5-minute walk from the King Abdul Aziz Gates, which is specifically used by Umrah pilgrims).

Experience and Practical Tips

In Madinah

  • I booked the Riaz ul Jannah and Roza Mubarak appointments using the official NUSUK (again, the only legitimate app for this purpose).

In Makkah

  • During Umrah:
    • Carry a small bag and enough water with you.
    • The area gets very crowded and can be overwhelming.
    • Safety Warning: Be extremely cautious when attempting to touch the Hijra-e-Aswad. It becomes very crowded, and people can get pushy quickly. This might be particularly dangerous for those with lung or breathing issues. I tried once and felt like I was going to faint due to the pressure from the crowd. Please use your judgment and stay safe!

Final Thoughts

Overall, it was an amazing and fulfilling experience—Alhamdulillah. May Allah accept all of our prayers, Ameen!

If you have any questions or need further details, please feel free to ask. I will be more than happy to help.

Salam Alaekum!

Assalam alykum brother and sisters,

I recently was diagnosed with a mental health disorder. Something I've had over the years but have suppressed. A part of me believes l've been affected with ayn (evil eye) as I have accomplished a lot in my years and considered attractive. I'm trying my best to overcome my thoughts about myself and the future. I feel that over the years it's gotten worse. I did have a rough childhood so it could be the PTSD and trauma but I want to know the best way to go about this. I was prescribed antidepressant medication, was thinking of giving that a try. I believe Allah has led me to this as a solution as l'm a practicing Muslim. I pray my 5 daily prayers, l even pray extra nafl prayers like tahajjud and even fast Monday and Thursdays. I want to have a good future, get married. I make dua to Allah to help me. Alhamdulilah for everything. I'd appreciate any advice! JZK

Do not forget to recite Surah Al Kahf on Friday

Do nor forget to perform Sunnah Prophet PBUH did on Friday, one of them is reciting Surah Al Kahf as PBUH said:

“Whoever reads Surat al-Kahf on the day of Jumu’ah, will have a light that will shine from him from one Friday to the next.” (Narrated by al-Hakim, 2/399; al-Bayhaqi, 3/249. Ibn Hajar said in Takhrij al-Adhkar that this is a hasan hadith, and he said, this is the strongest report that has been narrated concerning reading Surat al-Kahf. See: Fayd al-Qadir, 6/198. It was classed as sahih by Shaykh al-Albani in Sahih al-Jami’, 6470)

As-salamu alaykum People. I have a question.

If I woman gets into a haram relationship with a man with the promises he will make it ‘Halal’, aka marriage, but he doesn’t fulfil this and leaves her. She knew it was wrong to have a relationship, but loved him so much thinking he would ask for her hand. Who is in the wrong, or are they both in the wrong? Both are the same age, 20 years old. However the sister is a revert and doesn’t have any family that are Muslim. If any more questions are needed to give a more clear view on the situation I am happy to answer. Thank you for your responses…

Assalamu aalaykom wa rahmatu allah taala wa barakatuh. Peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah.

To be honest I wasn’t sure if I should post this on this subreddit, but I told myself why not.

So what I know is that my dopamine receptors are fried due to extended consumption of short form content from Covid onwards.

Which makes remembering stuff more difficult on both short and long terms, something I wouldn’t want as I would prefer having the ability to not only remember stuff about the deen with ease, but to also remember meaningful memories.

What would be a great way to achieve this goal?

Jazakum Allah khair.
