I’m Syrian but born in Europe. Since the war in Syria started, I stopped thinking about enjoying life and started focusing on fixing the world — Syria, global warming, poverty, injustice, etc. I know I can’t fix it all, but I still feel guilty enjoying anything while others suffer.
I understand the dunya will always be full of problems and that we’re tested, and I believe Allah gave each of us a personal mission. Like someone with a child with a disability might be more fit to dedicate their life to that cause — while I might have a different path.
Still, when I try to enjoy halal things like family, games, rest… I feel like I’m wasting time. I tell myself it’s ok to focus on what I can impact (like helping my parents), but deep down it feels like it’s not enough.
I feel like only those who spend 90% of their life fixing the world deserve Jannah, and if I want to live 70% joy / 30% mission, then I don’t deserve it.
How do you deal with this inner conflict?

Salaams sisters,
I am struggling to find smart casual modest summer friendly outfits as I do not like to layer too much, try not to have my arms out, do not like tight fitting tops and am also quite short (5'). Any ideas/recommendations?
I live in the UK so I feel as though I have limited options - my work dress code is smart casual, so I like to wear smart trousers rather than jeans etc but not like to look too smart if that makes sense.
As I mentioned, I am quite short but open to wearing dresses!! Unfortunately I have been unsuccessful in finding any that fit me properly and modestly.
Jzk sisters!

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,
I hope you are all doing well.
I wanted to share something I’ve been struggling with for about a year now. I believe I am facing OCD, especially related to taharah (purity).
I constantly feel that everything in my house — doorknobs, switches, appliances — is najis. I even feel my bed is najis. It’s gotten so bad that I struggle to use my phone, and I avoid university because I fear others’ hands might have najis, and it could transfer to me. This has badly affected my studies and grades.
It has also made me avoid praying Salah sometimes, because I fear my shoes touched najis, which then transferred to my jeans and places I sit.
I know it sounds strange, but this is my reality.
I also wash my hands so much that my skin is now badly damaged, dry, and painful.
The stress has become overwhelming, and sometimes suicidal thoughts cross my mind, which terrifies me.
I remind myself that Allah (SWT) does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear (Qur'an 2:286), and I am trying to seek help and stay hopeful.
If anyone has experienced something similar or has advice or duas to recommend, I would be very grateful.
Please keep me in your duas.
Jazakum Allahu Khairan.

Im traveling to Rhodes in Greece in september. A quick search show that there are several mashids in Rhodes, but it looks like most of them are not open for daily prayers except Ibrahim Pasha Mosque. Can any brother or sister confirm if this (or other mosques) are open for daily prayers or open in general?

Hi everyone, So for context im currently in the new school that i moved to around 6 months ago. The school is not very good. They have a very low budget so the school is small. I dont have any friends and the other people are not very kind to me. They make fun of me and laugh at me so i try my best to avoid them. There are only 2 rooms in which you are supposed to eat and these rooms are usually packed full. There are very rarely any seats available and even if there are i dont sit there because as i mentioned before people make fun of me and laugh at me. So my Question is: is it permissible for me to eat food in the toilet? I make sure to eat in the washroom with the cleanest toilet and i even use a tissue to clean my surrounding as best as possible.

Hi everyone! I grew up saying I was Muslim but it wasn’t until recently that I knew I need to officially begin my relationship with Allah. I have been reading a lot on this subreddit but one thing I am very lost on, is praying.
I downloaded the Deen app and it has the time which is helpful for learning when to pray. My problem is not knowing what to say. I don’t know Arabic only English. I looked up a video for Duhur but it was extremely difficult & long. It would take a very long time to remember it & I don’t even think I said anything right. I’m at a loss for what to do because I want to be a better Muslim.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I’m from India and the recent attack in Kashmir has made the whole narrative about Muslims even more fragile. I see every Muslim posting against it voicing their opinions and yet it’s like all their eyes are on us on how we react. It truly was a heart breaking incident and as a Muslim I know this is not what Islam preaches. I know this is not Islam. But how do I explain it to all these people? They’re going on a hate spree. I didn’t know the terrorists I don’t believe in their ideologies and I still am a Muslim why are you blaming me? I’ve been telling myself Sabr is the answer but till when. The entire world thinks of us in a bad light. I’m mad at everyone who kill in the name of religion and I’m mad at those terrorists who asked the names of the victims before they shot them who asked them to recite quran because if they really were the saviours of Islam and preaching Islam then they just put all their brothers and sisters in the spotlight exposing them to hate. I just want to skip to the part where Allah swt fixes everything. I may not live long enough to see that day but my soul truly will get peace the day Isa a.s comes back and restores peace.

I have 2 and and the thing I like about Quran.....1st man that book speaks....as an Indian here people teach how to read Arabic but don't teach translation or don't say to read translation so I recently read it...(I am in middle and man this book speaks...my so many doubts are cleared and I got answer of many things which I was thinking)🤯 . .. .........2nd I am also seeing other religion and found out that In other religion there book Sugar coat there readers but Quran warns it's reader........._______________________ And here is verse I like 1. When the sun is wrapped up in darkness, 2. And when the stars fall, scattering, 3. And when the mountains are made to pass away, 4. And when the camels, ten months pregnant, are abandoned, 5. And when the wild animals are gathered, 6. And when the seas are set on fire, 7. And when the souls are reunited with their bodies, 8. And when the girl who was buried alive is asked: 9. For what sin was she killed? 10. And when the scrolls are spread open, 11. And when the sky is peeled away, 12. And when Hellfire is set ablaze, 13. And when Paradise is brought near, 14. Every soul will know what it has brought. 15. So, I swear by the falling stars, 16. That rush and then disappear, 17. And by the night as it grows dark, 18. And by the morning when it breathes, 19. That this is the Word of a noble messenger, 20. With great power and high rank, 21. Who is obeyed by the angels, trustworthy. 22. And your companion is not mad. 23. And he has seen him in the clear horizon. 24. And he does not withhold knowledge of the unseen. 25. And it is not the Word of a cursed devil. 26. So where are you going? 27. This is a message for all the worlds, 28. For those who wish to follow the path. 29. But you will not wish unless Allah wills, 30. The Lord of the worlds. 31. (This is the Truth) For your God is One, 32. The Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything in between. 33. And He is the Lord of the east and the west. 34. Verily, We have adorned the lowest heaven with stars, 35. And We have made it a means of protection from the devils. 36. They cannot hear anything, and if any of them dares to listen, they are struck by a burning flame. 37. And the earth and the sky are filled with Allah's signs. 38. So, what will they do when the appointed time comes? 39. They will be punished for their deeds, and they will not be able to escape. 40. But those who believe and do good deeds will be rewarded..........

Basically, Judaism said there is going to be another prophet, and there was another prophet. For Christianity, there is no way a human is God, and why would God clear my sins if this life is a test? (Also, the amount of Mithraism in Christianity is crazy.) So the closest answer was either Islam or Zoroastrianism, Zoroastrianism because it's the only religion that explains the concept of free will somewhat well, but they said there would be another prophet—and it's widely agreed that they were talking about Jesus.
Also, the things all of these religions say to do are pretty much similar—like veiling, and not eating pork or drinking (which Jesus didn’t do, and they’re supposed to act like Christ). Another big thing is that all of these major religions come from a Semitic languages, and Abraham’s language was likely Proto-Semitic, which is more similar to Arabic than Hebrew. But I don’t literally believe in the story of Noah’s Ark and Adam and Eve—I think these stories are probably symbolic Also, Zoroastrianism had its own version of Adam and Eve and Noah’s Ark. Really cool, and you guys should research it and it predates the semetic one, jesus also said their would be one last prophet. and the last reason all of these relgion have a end of the world event with Jesus coming to help them ( Saoshyant in zoroastinism which is probably Jesus).
also with Cyrus helping the Jews ( first semetic religion) because god told him to do it and the jews also saying that he did it because god told him too, which is kind of crazy if you think about.
anyway the coincidences were way to much
their are still some things of islam i dont like, like having to belive in god to go to heaven instead of being a good person for the sake of being good and being granted heaven, but its the only religion that makes sense and it makes allot more sense if you think of it symbolically instead of literally.

All praises to God.
Salamu alaykum,
I don’t know how to say it but I have a girlfriend and I don’t know what to do now. I am very lost in this scenario. Should I break up with her or should I not?
Plus to tell you guys, I’m not in a position to marry right now. And I know it’s not good breaking someone’s heart. She is too sensitive and too attached to me. I don’t know what would be it impact on her.
Can I be with her without physical intimacy?

Hello reddit! I needed some advice about my immediate family members.
Long story short, I met a fellow while out with some friends and we started playing video games together. I was playing video games with him and we were talking about different aspects of are life. We actually got into a really great discussion about different aspects of different religious practices. He was talking to me about Hajj, Ramadan, and a few other things. While I discussed Easter, lent and so on.
Ok now thats done.
While I was talking to them my mother over heard us apparently. I was told some very blatantly racist things about my friend. I just walked away because I was getting super upset with my mom. Well she ended up telling me my immediate family about it and I have been getting lots of messages reiterating the things my mom said. (My some of cousins have stood up for me but still).
What should I say to my family? I talked to My freind about what happened to see his input, but he told me to just leave it some people are just ignorant.
I just really want to stop being harassed by my family and I am not willing to not talk to my friend like they have told me too.
Anyway Thank you very much for your input and have a great rest of your day/night!

I have many kaffara payment due on me due to breaking oaths. What I previously did was pay 50 pounds to any donations without looking if they're feeding the needy for example I would just click on counties that are the most needy or help build a well, etc so various type of donations. Is this the wrong way and do I need to repay again all those oaths I made due to this error?

As salaam alaikum, are we suppose to remain silent at Jumuah? When Rasullah (peace and blessings be upon him) name is mentioned, I don't say anything but here others giving saying "Sallallahu alayhi wa salaams" and others say "Ameen" when the speaker is making Dua.
Am I in the wrong for remaining silent?

So I have been studying really hard for my exam and have been putting in the work and effort so that I could pass my exam. I made several duas asking for guidance to help me prepare for this exam and for me to get a good grade on my exam. I was extremely confidant in my dua and had no doubts whatsoever ever. I took my test and I didn’t do great on it and I’m disappointed because I actually believed that I would do well on the exam. I know that not every dua you make will be answered but it hurts when you believed that your dua would be answered the way that you want and it wasn’t. I don’t know how to feel. I thought that studying hard, making dua constantly, and praying a lot would increase the likelihood of my dua being answered. Does anyone have any advice?

Hello.
I am a coach of a youth football team, and amongst our players we have two Muslim boys.
We are currently just a few games away from winning our league; and if we do so (not counting chickens yet), we'd love to have a real celebration with the boys when the title is secured.
Obviously a traditional champagne celebration wouldn't be suitable (the boys are 12/13); but I've come across some Halal-certified non-alcoholic sparkling grape juice, which looks like it might do a similar job.
I don't want to get ahead of myself just yet (as we have three games still to play), but will broach to subject to the parents of the two boys shortly. However, does anyone think there would be an issue in using this product as a substitute for champagne (similar to how F1 drivers use Rose Water in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi)? The last thing I want is to generate a massive cultural faux-pas.

I know Allah says that he will not burden one more than he can bare. But I just can’t help to think that if one had reached to the point where they believe death is the only answer, they couldn’t bare it. And it saddens me that for them, they might have to go through hell, twice. I know that Allah is the most merciful and he knows best. I just can’t fathom this
May Allah make it easier for everyone in this cruel world subhanallah

I keep going through this constant cycle of sinning, then repenting to Allah and returning to my prayers. then sinning and leaving prayers, then repenting to Allah and returning to my prayers. What do I do??? This has been going on for a while, since Ramadan ended specifically. And I'm trying my best to break this cycle but I just can't.
I want to also ask, how come I prayed almost every single prayer during Ramadan but I keep missing prayers after Ramadan??

Okay so there's this old tablet in my parents room which they no longer use and so now I have it. If they ask about it or askfor it back I will delete my stuff off of it and give it to them but they don't remember it nor do they know I have it so would that make it haram if I have it?? Theyeach have phones and tablets of their own so this wasn't being used

I have been reading on this topic and watching videos. Moulanas are going back and forth arguing if three talaq in one sitting is considered three or one. The deobandis believe it’s considered three and Ahle sunnah believe it’s considered only one. All school of thoughts agree on three talaq in one sitting counts as three. I am very confused

Allah says: "Who is it that would loan Allah a goodly loan so He may multiply it for him many times over? And it is Allah who withholds and grants abundance, and to Him you will be returned." [Surah Al-Baqarah: 245]
And He also says: "You will never attain righteousness until you spend from that which you love." [Surah Aal-Imran: 92]
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever relieves a believer's distress of the distressful aspects of this world, Allah will rescue him from a difficulty of the difficulties of the Hereafter." [Sahih Muslim]
In these days—filled with trials and hardship across many parts of our Ummah—perhaps one of the greatest doors to Jannah is to help ease the burden of others, whether through a kind word, a sincere prayer, or a quiet act of charity.
I write these words from a place where these hardships are not just seen—they are lived daily. May Allah grant us all a share in quiet, sincere acts of good that weigh heavy on the scale.
A reminder to myself before anyone else.

As-salamu alaykum, I’m a young man who has been practicing Islam my whole life, Alhamdulillah. My father is Chechen, and my mother is Bosnian. I was born and raised in America. I serve as an officer in the U.S. Army and work as a critical care nurse. I am truly grateful to Allah (swt) for giving me this opportunity to help others in my career.
I don’t own a car, and since I’m an officer, I live off-base. A coworker of mine, a young Muslim woman, offered to carpool with me. I know she’s sincere in her faith, as she wears the hijab and attends the mosque every week. I told her I’d think about it. We are both young, single Muslims, and I’m unsure whether it’s permissible in Islam for us to carpool together.

Yk I made a post a month ago or days ago and these WONDERFUL people helped me out n stuff! But my laziness got the best of me :/ I don't feel that Islam speciality and sometimes when I'm asked to pray n stuff like someone is TELLING me to pray I don't feel the growth to Allah.. I don't feel like the bond between me and Allah is worth or somesort and sometimes I question why am I still alive when I'm the worst servant out there? I've done so many sins and sometimes when j think that i don't think Islam is real in general.. it's like I'm not scared of Allah anymore and I want to deep deep down but I can't? I keep doing sins and I feel like it'll never get better.. my biggest fear is dying without knowing the true religion or dying to know Islam was the true religion and end up going to hellfire. I hate myself truly so much I just wish I could be some perfect Muslim
All this talk about telling me to read Quran, learn about Allah, etc isn't helping me at all.. I don't know what to do :/ it's like I'm starting to become some atheist or whatever or maybe not an atheist just no belief in anything.

And is it permissible to pull out your phone during prayer to make duas during prescribed times of dua? (I.e Sujood)

Attaining Khushu in Salah requires both spiritual mindfulness and practical effort. It begins with sincere intention and the recognition that you are standing before Allah, the Most Merciful and Majestic. Before starting your prayer, take a moment to clear your mind and heart of distractions, reminding yourself of the purpose of Salah. Understanding the meanings of the words you recite helps deepen your connection and allows you to engage with your prayer on an emotional and spiritual level. Performing wudu with care and remembering that it purifies not just the body but also the soul can set the tone for a humble prayer. During Salah, focus on each movement and word, imagining that it is your final prayer. Avoid rushing and instead move with calmness and presence. Seeking forgiveness regularly and making du'a for increased Khushu can also help soften the heart. Finally, creating a peaceful environment and limiting distractions around you will support a more focused and sincere prayer. With consistent effort and reliance on Allah, Khushu becomes easier to attain and strengthens your relationship with your Creator. 🌺❤️ [link] [comments] |

Assalamualaikum everyone I'm Muslim & I've a non muslim girlfriend. We've been in a live-in relationship from more than 2 years now. I want to marry her & asked her to convert, but she doesn't want to. She also got pregnant & we've to abort the child 1 year back early in pregnancy, because we were not married yet & because I was terrified. My father follows shariah & tabligi jamat very strictly. I'm also a good Muslim (may Allah forgive me), at least I'm trying to be one. What should I do in this situation? Should I tell my father about her. If yes, what should I tell my father. I feel very attached with her. But sometimes I get the feeling that this is a haram relationship. Should I end this relationship? Please guide as soon as possible. Thank you, jazakallah in advance.

Salam all, I was having a conversation with a friend that left both of us confused so I am seeking the answer here.
Since the tashahhud is an obligatory part of the salah, and the salah itself is considered invalid if you do not recite the tashahhud, should someone who is learning the tashahhud continue to pray even though they do not know it by heart? Or is this not advised because since they do not yet know the tashahhud, their prayer would be considered invalid?
Should they first fully learn the tashahhud before continuing prayer and then make up for the missed salah after?
What is the ruling on this and how is it navigated?
