So my cat is young only 3 years old. He has been inactive and lazy and very sick, so I took him to the vet a few days ago. Turns out, he has an upper respiratory infection, so they gave him some shots and fluids and let us take him home - they are a daytime clinic and don’t keep animals overnight. He was starting to get better yesterday and the day beforem but last night something changed and I don’t know what. He became weak and very very sick and the vet says he will most probably die (la samah allah) and they kept him overnight for observation meaning he isn’t doing well bc they don’t do that for anything else. Just called, no good news, still doing terrible. Please keep him in your duas and prayers please, even just wishing for a gentle passing maybe at least. Thank you everyone.

So I did umrah and I am currently in Madinah for two more days and I got my periods.
It makes me sad because I will miss out on praying and I was planning to enter Rawdah, looks like I can’t anymore?
Also, is it correct that a woman is not even allowed to sit in the veranda of Masjid Nabwi if menstruating?
What do I do?

I humbly request everyone to please remember my family in your duʿāʾ.
My sister left home yesterday with a non-Muslim boy with the intention of marriage. She has clearly told us that she is cutting ties with our family and even distancing herself from Islām because of him. We are completely heartbroken and helpless.
My parents are in extremely poor condition due to this situation. My mother is currently admitted to the hospital, and the entire family is suffering immense pain and distress. We have tried everything within our limits, but nothing seems to be helping at the moment.
I sincerely request you all to please make duʿāʾ that:
Allah ﷻ guides my sister back to the right path
Allah ﷻ opens her heart to the truth and protects her īmān
Allah ﷻ removes the influence that is leading her away from her family and religion
Allah ﷻ grants patience, strength, and shifāʾ to my parents, especially my mother
Allah ﷻ saves our family from being destroyed and reunites us upon khayr and guidance
Indeed, Allah ﷻ is Al-Hādī (The One Who Guides) and nothing is impossible for Him.
Jazākumullāhu khayran for your duʿāʾ and support.

Allah says:
Every soul shall taste death, and you will only be given your full reward on the Day of Resurrection. (Qur’an 3:185)
The dunya was never meant to last. Allah did not create us to chase it, argue over it, or break hearts for it. He created it as a test, and He warned us lovingly that it will come to an end.
The Prophet Spoke of the End of the Dunya
The Prophet said that a time would come when, Truth would feel heavy Patience would feel painful Holding onto faith would feel like holding fire
Yet he did not tell us to harden our hearts. He told us to hold onto mercy, to character, to kindness.
Because when the dunyā is ending, what remains is your heart and your deeds.
When the World Is Fading, What Matters?
When the earth shakes, when wealth disappears, when faces are turned pale with fear no one will ask how much you owned.
Allah will ask, How did you treat the people I entrusted to you? Did you forgive when you were able? Did you choose mercy when you could choose anger?
The Prophet said that the heaviest thing on the scale on the Day of Judgment is good character.
Not arguments. Not pride. Not winning.
A Soft Heart at the End of Time
As the dunya weakens, hearts are meant to soften not harden.
If Allah is taking the world away, it is because He wants us to return to Him.
Return with, Apologies before it’s too late Kind words before silence becomes permanent Love for the sake of Allah, not the dunya
The Prophet lived simply even though he could have lived like a king. Why? Because he knew where real life was.
A Final Tearful Reminder
One day, the sun will rise from the west. Tawbah will close. Time will end.
And all that will remain is, A prayer you prayed sincerely A heart you did not break A soul you brought peace to
Allah is Merciful, but He is also Just.
So before the dunya ends, Choose forgiveness Choose gentleness Choose Allah over ego
And the life of this world is nothing but enjoyment of deception. (Qur’an 57:20)
End With Hope
Even at the end of the dunnya, Allah’s door is open until it closes.
Do not delay love. Do not delay repentance. Do not delay goodness.
Because the end is closer than we think.

Assalamu alaikum,
I’m the eldest son of five siblings (three sisters and one brother). Our relationship with my mother is quite complicated, and I wanted to share this here to seek advice and perspective from an Islamic point of view.
My mother is very short-tempered and gets angry quickly, especially when she is stressed. During these moments, she often curses and makes very unpleasant du‘aas against me and my siblings. This has been emotionally heavy for all of us. At the same time, when she is calm, she is genuinely a sweet person who deeply cares about us. She worries a lot, and I believe much of her behavior comes from that worry, but unfortunately it often comes out in harmful ways.
My father is usually busy with work and travels frequently. Even when he is around, he doesn’t help much in resolving these issues, and my mother ends up being the dominant and most feared figure in the house.
Because of this environment, I feel like I matured early. I started asking for very little, helping around the house as much as I could, and trying to rely mostly on myself. I can’t say the same for my younger siblings, especially my sisters. My mother takes everything upon herself and refuses help, particularly in the kitchen. She doesn’t allow my sisters to help at all. I sometimes joke with her, saying that if she doesn’t teach them basic household skills, they’ll struggle later in life. She responds by saying that no daughter of hers should burden herself with such things and that they should focus only on education. While I agree education is extremely important, I still feel that learning basic life skills and sharing responsibility would help ease her burden.
I personally had to learn basic kitchen and household chores through YouTube just so I could try to help her, but even then, my help is often rejected.
Over time, the relationship between my mother and my sisters has become more strained. They argue frequently, often ending in shouting and harsh words. She has softened toward me more than toward them, which puts me in a very difficult emotional position.
What weighs on me the most is that I’ll be leaving home to study abroad soon. I feel immense guilt about leaving my mother with all these responsibilities, especially since my father is often absent due to work. It feels like I’m her only support inside the house, and I’m afraid of what will happen when I’m gone.
I’m trying to be a good son and fulfill my duties toward my parents, but I feel overwhelmed and confused. I would really appreciate advice grounded in Islam—how to navigate this situation, how to deal with a parent who is loving yet emotionally harmful at times, and how to leave home without feeling like I’m abandoning my responsibility.
Jazakum Allahu khairan.

If a Muslim who is feeling confused asks—when we talk about the punishment of Hellfire—the only thought I have is: If Allah is the Most Merciful and the Especially Merciful, why would He create a reality of eternal suffering? And if He created desires, yet asks people to restrain those desires, is that truly mercy? How should we think about this, and how should we respond?

Salam everyone, I wanted to share something I woke up to this morning that really rubbed me the wrong way. I actually have a Premium subscription to Muslim Pro, but I guess the app glitched out this morning and didn't recognize my account status. Because of that, I got a glimpse of what the "Free" experience looks like now, and I was shocked. As you can see in the attached screenshots, the widget on my home screen was completely locked with padlock icons. Even the notification drawer had the prayer time blurred out. I understand that developers need to make money, and paying for premium features like Qibla trackers, Quran recitations, or removing ads makes total sense, infact I subscribed because of all the great features and content the app has. But gatekeeping the actual Salah times—the entire purpose of the app—feels exploitative. Since I have Premium, I can fix this by restoring my purchase, but it made me realize that people who can't afford the subscription are being subjected to this. Hiding the time for Fard prayers behind a "lock" or forcing users to watch ads just to see the time on their home screen feels unethical and, honestly, almost haram. I'm honestly thinking about cancelling my subscription over this. Any one got any good recommendations? [link] [comments] |

As-salamu alaykum! I apologize if this post comes of as offensive. I mean no harm and want to show respect for your religion and culture while learning more about it.
I was doing research on intermittent fasting and came across mentions of Ramadan. I've heard of Ramadan as religious fasting and know of a few Muslims in college who participated in Ramadan. From my understanding it's a sacred period of time when strict fasting occurs for religious reasons. There was a mention of eating only during sunrise/sunset (or maybe I have that wrong) and fasting outside of the sacred hours.
I want to improve my health and diet so I can be healthier. My current diet consists of highly processed foods, high fats, and high carbs. Sometimes I have high sugar when I'm stressed/anxious. I got fatigue, sleep issues, worsening of ADHD symptoms, and low stamina.
I have started 16:8 intermittent fasting yesterday and noticed a dramatic decrease in acne. It made me want to continue fasting but doing it in a healthy way that allows me to maintain nutrients and improve my overall health. Then I thought about how Muslims fast during Ramadan and how cleanliness is a part of the religion. I also realized that I have never seen a Muslim with bad skin. Every Muslim person I have encountered has beautiful skin free of blemishes and acne.
I've always been curious about Muslim culture and do take bits and pieces of it and incorporate it into my life. However, I don't want to give off the impression that I want to convert. I don't eat pork because growing up my mom called it "the devil's meat" and said it was bad for you. As I got older I used to sneak pork to eat and it made me feel very sick afterwards. I think about how Muslims don't eat pork and that Muslims probably have the ideal clean diet that allows them to maintain their health and beauty.
Sorry for the long backstory I thought it was important to include before asking questions on Islamic culture/religion. I'm curious as to when do Muslims eat during Ramadan and what do Muslims typically eat in a day? I want to actively incorporate food suggestions into my diet. I'm moderately allergic to peanuts and have OAS (oral allergy syndrome) so I struggle with raw fruits/vegetables that are pollinated with ragweed, birchweed, or grass pollen. If it's cooked veggies/fruits then I can eat it without problem.
TLDR; When do Muslims eat during the sunrise/sunset during Ramadan and what does a typical Muslim diet consist of?

I understand how important it is to respect your parents and obey your parents but I feel like I'm actually going insane. I am a young Muslim female, I have studied and this is currently my first year of working in the field I studied. I don't even know where to start. My mother always told me how she's trying to raise me to be independent but her words and her actions do not align. I'm not good with words so I'm just going to jump straight into it.
When I got my first car, I was told that I'd be allowed to go out with friends so long as its nearby and I'm back home before Asr. Understandable but when the times came, she said I couldn't go because it's too dangerous. This was around the beginning of my university years. During university, I was not allowed to do anything besides drive to uni and back home. I couldn't stop for any errands, couldn't buy something to eat, couldn't go out with friends if we had a break between lectures, couldn't fill my own gas, my dad would fill my gas over the weekends and it would suffice for the week. University ended, I graduated, I got a job and the car is fully paid and in my name alhamdulillah but the story continues.
As a working adult I am not allowed to go anywhere or do anything by myself besides drive to work and back home. When I get to work I have to text that I have parked and then text again that I am inside my place of work. If I somehow forgot to say that I'm inside, my mother would call me a billion times and then I'd be called irresponsible and so on because it's reckless and something could've happened to me. I have to check in during the day even if I have a full day of patients booked, I have to still check in from time to time so that she knows I'm okay.
I work near a pharmacy which is a 1 min walk away. The one day before I went to work, my mother asked me to get a throat spray when I get a chance. Later that day, I did go get it and then I just texted her that i got it and when I got home, she exploded on me saying "how many times have you went and done things by yourself? Does that mean you take the car and drive wherever you want to as well without telling me? Anything could happen to you and I wouldn't know because you didn't tell me? You think just because you're big you can do whatever you want to?" and I felt so defeated because I ran an errand without saying anything. If I go do anything, I need to text I'm taking a walk to the store next door and then text that I'm back at my place of work.
A while ago one of my friends have a lunch get together and I was invited. My mother said that I can't go myself, my father will drop me off and the excuse was that there might not be enough parking space if other people are invited and coming in their own cars. When this same friend was getting married, I was invited for several dinners and small events and for the same reason, I couldn't go myself because "it's too dangerous to go by yourself" or there might not be enough parking space.
My parents and I went for a flea market thingy and they ordered food from one stall, while i ordered food from another stall which was a little bit of a distance walk from where we were sitting. Their food came first but mine was taking long so after a while I said okay I'm going to check if my food is ready. My mother then said no, I can't go alone because it's too far and it's too crowded and someone might take my seat so she'll come with me.
I can't go out with my Co worker because it's too dangerous to go alone. We spoke about playing padel together and when we did arrange it, my parents had to take me with, wait for our game to finish and then take me home. This was a little late at night so it's more understandable but if it was during the day, I still wouldn't be allowed to go myself. My Co worker and I spoke of going for a zip line ride one early Sunday morning and my mother said they'll take me because I can't go myself as it's too dangerous. So they took me, I did the zip lining all while my parents went shopping at a nearby store and then they came back to fetch me when I was done.
There's more details that I'm not getting into because my head is so clouded and I'm so angry right now but that's the gist of my life, all while she also asks me about marriage so often and I constantly wonder "how am I not responsible for a quick errand such as filling gas or just wanting some alone time but I'm somehow ready to be responsible for marriage".
In conclusion, do I always need my parents permission for everything? Am I not allowed to do anything until i get married? Am I not allowed to move out on my own and actually live my own life and know what kind of person I am by myself before committing to a guy for the rest of my life? Do they always need to be around for everything? I don't even want to get married or hang out with anyone or do anything with any friends because I'm so tired of my mother trying to incorporate them into plans that might arise with me. If I say anything to her it becomes an argument or a fight. I can't remember things properly so I can't bring it up with her because then I'll fumble. All I want is freedom. I just want freedom. I just want to live without having to constantly check my phone or constantly ask for permission, I just want to live. I just want to breathe.

Suppose someone is given shelter by their family but they leave so as to stop being a burden on them and avoid accruing sin being undutiful to their parents and family members, and working is too difficult for them. If they go on to be homeless and avoid begging or trying to seek food/water/shelter, only taking it if they are offered without asking, with the intention of preferring to die but not directly taking any action towards that just avoiding the actions necessary to survive, is this considered suicide and would Allah punish you in the same way He punishes someone who commits suicide?

This is my appreciation for Arabs and Muslims.
Many of them grow up and live under far harder conditions than the West, yet they carry themselves with strength, discipline, creativity, and resilience. Their connection to work, art, family, and perseverance feels deeply rooted and earned.
When I look at that, I feel humble as the skinny, jobless European that I am. It forces me to reflect on comfort, privilege, and what real strength looks like. There is something powerful about people who keep building themselves and their communities despite struggle, and that deserves respect.

I don't wish to expose my sins as it is obviously haram and I am quite ashamed of it but in the past when I would meet women through social media with impure intentions, things would either not work out at the last second and the meet up wouldn't happen or I would get several signs from Allah to not meet x person and I would still wouldn't listen and get punished and humiliated in the end. This has happened so many times to the point where I feel like Allah is preserving me from zina which I am so thankful for today but what I wish to know is why Allah would preserve me from such things and not the friends and relatives who actively do such things? JazakAllah khair.

Salam everyone.
I suffer from a condition called intermittent explosive disorder and borderline personality disorder. Over the last decade of my life has been very turbulent. A lot of trauma, abuse, blackmail etc has happened to me. It results in me being very bitter at the world and people around me. I often question and blame Allah for my issues. I know life is a test but sometimes I over react (due to my condition) and will say such harsh and disgusting words about the religion and people around me.
I have forgotten how to pray. I remember parts of it but I would not be able to do it without guidance. I had this feeling after getting married that I wanted to go to Umrah, so I booked the trip.
It would be our first time going to do Umrah.
I also have quit Marijuana (i used it to keep me from getting to rage) and I am ten days off it alhamdullilah.
I just want some advice. Should I still go to Umrah? I feel like I want to, but then something is telling me no. That i dont know how to pray so why go? I still have a few months before I go so I am trying but I feel so far away from deen at the moment as I have been quite ill recently as well. I keep blaming Allah and swearing. I am very mean to people around me yet I try to be great. I get triggered and get into rage over any little thing. I just feel like I am a bad human and dont deserve to go anywhere.
Please advice me brothers and sisters. I want to be better, I truly do. But I feel like I am too far gone. Has anyone been through this situation before?
Jzk much appreciated for any help or guidance.

Let me explain more I don't believe in those books who passed the profet's saying like "sahih muslim" amd "sahih bukhari" They can contain wrong saying , the problem isn't here. The real issue is how to convince someone that thinks our practice for prayer (salah) is wrong and we are not in need to do that whole process like "rouku" and "sujud" because in the Quran there wasn't any explanation for how to practice salah. it is mentioned in the profet's sayings that for him are not correct. So i am in need to prove to this person that the only way to practice our salah is in that way and that's a "fardh" Thank you for your help

I have a family member who immigrated to Germany and studied there and apparently she was with someone german but he reverted to islam (because he was an atheist beforehand) to marry her. I'll never be able to ask her these questions but I'm just wondering how does it work? How does one bring that up in conversation? Like, how does someone decide to enter a religion with such commitment? Or more like, what would make a non muslim person be interested in someone muslim and maybe thinking about Islam and then getting married?? And I want actual stories from people who reverted. I want to hear from their point of view. Thanks.

Is it normal and fair to take selective meanings of words of Arabic in the Quran?
For example, the word Alaqah was understood to be blood clot by majority but now we take the other two meanings: Leech-like & clinging thing. Do we just reject 1 or more meanings and accept 1 or more meanings as the context and facts suit? Is this justified and not selective, subjective interpretation?
If so, why would Allah reveal verses that is prone to such subjective interpretation especially in this case where the false meaning (blood clot) is understood to be the meaning fairly since it was the most likely meaning to the previous generations?
Jazakallah Khairan.

As-salamu alaikum! First of all, I want to apologise in advance for my bad English, it isn’t my native language. I used to read various books -romance, mythology, classics… Every single improper topic you can possibly imagine. Obviously I don’t believe in any of that, but after giving it more thought I wondered if I had committed a very bad sin and I am really sad, stressed and regretful. Those books were really expensive and I don’t know how to get rid of them (literally ENTIRE bookshelf) and eventually explain that to my family, because we aren’t really well off financially… Any good advice would be appreciated!

I’ve seen this argument made by a lot of Muslims, but I can’t seem to make sense of it since they consider both Jesus and the Holy Spirit to be God. It seems to me that many Jews I’ve heard recognize this, and most of them acknowledge that Jews and Muslims pray to the same God but not Christians. On the other hand, Christians say that Christians and Jews pray to the same God, but not Muslims. I’m not really sure if we do pray to the same God, but it seems that many Muslims just say we pray to the same God as Christians because we want to appear more friendly to them.

1) How do you empty your bladder all the way? It seems impossible. Despite sitting I still have small amounts of dribble come out. I have tried waiting longer but this doesn’t help and it can take up to 30 mins for it to stop. I am struggling to understand how one is to fully avoid urine. This is causing a lot of hardship and stress for prayer.
2) I have tried tissue but the urine droplet(s) will get through so my clothes become impure. I have tried pads but big ones are too noticeable and difficult to bring multiple of when traveling so I can run out. Whereas the small ones can move or your private can move spreading the impurity.
I hate having to wet my clothes and it’s difficult to avoid it spreading since wet impurity can spread so easily with contact. Does anyone have any advice or fatwas on the subject? They say in Hanafi that some impurity is overlooked but from my understanding it is speaking about impurities too difficult to see (the size of a tip of a needle or the eye of a locust)
Also if you are just going to comment this is waswas know that I have concrete proof something comes out.

I used to be someone who used to love being around people and show mercy to my family and everyone around me. After a medical scare and meds it was almost overnight when I discovered that I lost it all. The warmth of His Love and His Mercy all gone overnight.
How is that possible? From being grateful to ungrateful. From loving children and babysitting them 24/7 to not wanting to be around them.
I feel so disconnected and discontent with how I lost it all overnight.
I feel stuck.
FYI I tried therapy and hijama and did umrah. But I still feel like my heart has been cut off from any Mercy and Love and it has impacted every aspect of my life. I will continue to seek forgiveness.
But I would like to know if anyone practicing has gone through this and overcome it? Call it what you want but I truly feel the love and mercy is how it feels like.

So both of my parents are both very toxic, and I would say that I have grown up in a very toxic household,without any love,nobody has ever said to me I’m proud of you , I love you etc. and that is okey by me because it made me stronger but on the other hand more not knowing of my soft side. I have always been beaten by various objects in the household and their like was that a stick came from Jannet. It was always a crazy household,they are both very controlling,antisocial,like that old Bosnian parents that u would imagine. They have so many loans,dad always struggled with jobs and they make good money but most of it goes to loans(which are haram),but they always say that they didn’t have a choice,in my head it means that they didn’t trust Allah enough but ok. The problem is that they come home from work and waiting to die,basically like that. They don’t have hobbies,don’t care about anything,don’t go anywhere. It’s like they are waiting to die estaqfirullah. They make me do hard things around the house,they have so much problems in their lives ,and everything is always my fault. I know that parents are always right,especially when it comes to parents in islam. And I never mean them no harm, but it’s just such a controlling,depressing environment that I’m just waiting to get out of. They see me do Dua and they say ,don’t act like that u just finished prayer etc in a bad tone. I honestly don’t know that to do to them anymore. I guess that they just have a victim mentality,that they didn’t pursue their goals and that’s why they put me down. So the question is : if I know that they are like this ,how should I behave in theirs space/with them etc.

So my father wants me to invest in a CD to avoid bank fees and protect my money from scams. The problem is that there will likely be interest involved.If I refuse, there's a good chance my father will catch on to the reason. And he really hates it when I abide by rulings of islam. Like not touching the opposite gender, refraining from listening to music....etc I don't know what he'll do if I say no. What can I do?

Assalamu Alaykum brothers and sisters,
Alhamdoulilah recently Allah has drawn me back to him through hardship and I am fortunate to have that happen to me.
I am past the honey moon phase and have changed my niyyah with the way I live and alhamdoulilah it has worked wonders no matter what trials I still go through but I feel like I'm falling short... I know for a fact that If It wasn't for his mercy neither me or you would even be worthy of jannah but he is the most merciful. I have a feeling of fear that no matter how much I refine my ibaadah, he might still not be content with me because of something I did.
By ibaadah I don't mean just praying and fasting, I mean also trying to live by the prophet's pbuh way and always fight my nafs on a daily basis to avoid anger and sins.
But I am fearful, I don't want just jannah, I want closeness to Allah, because he was there when no one else was and I want to be as close as I can be.
Is there a way to know if I'm in the right path or do I just keep refining my deen?
This is not out of fear, this is out of love.

Salam brothers and sisters.
Before I begin, I want to make one thing clear: I do not need assistance of any kind. I am managing. What I truly need is for someone to hear me, to acknowledge me, to simply say something encouraging. I feel so invisible sometimes, and a kind word is worth more to me than anything else.
For context, I am in Canada.
Four years ago my life was ordinary in the best possible way. I had a stable career, a home, a wife, a child, and a family that loved me. Everything a man in his early thirties could reasonably hope for. Yes, my marriage had its issues, but nothing unmanageable.
Then one day, while standing on a ladder to change a curtain, I fell and struck my head. A week later the migraines began... chronic migraines with aura.
The first doctor I saw brushed me off or simply lacked the competence to help. I was prescribed a harsh anti-inflammatory medication. It did nothing. Over-the-counter painkillers were useless, and the only thing that dulled the agony was alcohol. I did not want to go down that road, but the relief was the only relief I could find.
I eventually learned that migraines affect each person differently. Mine were not the worst in terms of pain, but the postdrome was devastating. After a migraine, my cognitive ability dropped by what felt like seventy percent. Concentration vanished. My ability to form coherent thoughts or make rational decisions collapsed. By the time I recovered, another migraine was already approaching... and the cycle repeated endlessly. Alcohol was the only thing that cut through the fog. At a certain level of intoxication, I remembered what it felt like to be myself.
My employer noticed. My attendance slipped, my performance suffered. They were kind enough to move me into an easier administrative position, but nothing improved. Eventually my contract was not renewed.
Money began running out. By then the world was deep in the pandemic.
I could not afford the mortgage on the house my wife and her mother had purchased for us... I had no savings to contribute to the down payment in the first place.
My marriage finally collapsed. As I said earlier, we had our problems even before the injury. Losing my ability to function, to work, and turning to alcohol was simply too much. I do not blame her.
I had no choice but to figure out how to survive. I moved thousands of kilometers away... from Ontario to Alberta. Through a friend I found a good job, and I pushed myself as hard as I could. But after four months, my attendance again became an issue and I was laid off.
By that time the Canadian job market had deteriorated to the point of despair. When I could not find work in Alberta, I moved to New Brunswick, where my father lived. Things calmed down for a while. I worked a minimum wage retail job... nothing glamorous, but my manager understood my condition. My migraines even eased for a bit, and I believed I was ready for full-time labor again. I joined an electrical company as a laborer.
I lasted three months.
That was when I finally accepted that I needed proper treatment. New Brunswick has poor healthcare access, so I saved every dollar, every cent, and returned to Ontario. There I found a neurologist who actually listened to me, took me seriously, and began trying different treatments.
This brings us to 2024. The neurologist kept cycling through medications but nothing worked. The job market was still frozen. I eventually became homeless.
I left southern Ontario for Ottawa. Soon after arriving, the neurologist finally found a medication that helped. Not perfectly, but enough that I could function again. Unfortunately, by then the damage to my life felt complete. I could think clearly again, but inside I felt hollow... as if I no longer knew how to rebuild.
During all the years I was sick, I fell behind on every financial obligation, including child support. In Canada, missing child support leads to wage garnishment, suspension of your driver’s license, and even having your passport cancelled.
Today I live out of a storage locker because I cannot afford rent. I am afraid to pursue full-time work in my field. It is a small industry, and there are only so many companies I can pass through before my name becomes synonymous with unreliability.
I pray often. I remind myself that Allah tests those He loves. I know, intellectually, that suffering often hides a purpose we cannot see. But emotionally... I feel invisible. I feel frightened. I never imagined that by nearly forty years old, this would be my life. If someone had told me in 2017 what was coming... I would have laughed in their face for speaking such a curse.
Yet here I stand.
I did not choose Islam. I was born into it. And for that I feel deeply blessed. But sometimes I wonder if reverts appreciate the beauty of faith more than those of us born into it.
I feel alone far too often. I fear that I have ruined my life beyond repair. At my lowest moments I even feel abandoned by Allah, though I know that feeling is only a trick of the mind.
What can I do to feel closer to Allah again?

I am a person with anxiety disorder in the last stage of the disease's development. I understand that sins lead to hell, and good deeds to heaven, but I heard on the Internet that people with mental illnesses cannot receive either sin or thawab and that Allah will definitely bring such people to heaven (if they were born that way). But I was not born with this disease (the disease began when I was already an adult in Islam). Therefore, the question of where I will go after death is still open. Therefore, I want to know if I can receive thawab or sin to get to heaven.

i grew up in a religious family and in Saudia so aH ive always had proper islamic education influenced on me. however, i never knew the power of Tahajjud until only a couple years ago. i believed it and wanted to practice it but would only wake up for Fajr not Tahajjud. 2 years ago, I prayed my first tahajjud and got what i wanted THE DAY AFTER. i also prayed recently since i was goign through something and pretty much begged to Allah in Tahajjud to ease my pain and i dont even want anyone back in my life i just wanted my mind to be clear and my heart to be at ease. i swear the next morning i woke up with a completely different mindset. i was seriously so positive and suddenly it felt like everything will be ok. it doesnt necessarily have to happen overnight but it WILL happen. and its guaranteed for all of us and WILL help you get anything you want if you truly pray with your heart and stay consistent.
i genuinely believe tahajjud is the reason i am where i am. and i dont just pray it for when i need things, i have been trying to make it a habit to just pray consistently because if it can get me what i want so easily, i cant imagine what else i have in store for me.
please please please pray tahajjud and lock in, you are so close and it really is that easy. Allah is seriously the most merciful.

Hello everyone. I’ll try to make this post as short as possible without rambling too much.
I didn’t grow up very religious, in fact my parents were agnostic pagans (less emphasis on deities and more emphasis on traditions following the seasons). Although I did have Christian grandparents and attended Lutheran Sunday school for the first 9 years of my childhood. My parents have always been open to religious exploration but never declared or practiced a religion of their own. I’ve always been open and spiritual but never declared any specific faith of my own.
A few years ago out of curiosity I decided to learn more about Islam because surely it is not a faith weapons and violence my country (the U.S.) loves to portray Islam to be. I do not know Arabic so I’ve listened to an English audio translation of the Quran and played around with following along a translation while it’s been recited in Arabic. I have found much peace in all of my interactions with Islam and the Quran.
I am currently a college student and finishing up a world religion course where we were assigned to explore another faith and attend a prayer or service and I took this as the perfect opportunity to visit one of my local mosques.
The service was beautiful and although the Arabic was in parts hard to follow the warmth and glow in the room was very real. Being lovingly called “sister” in a room full of people I’ve never met will forever sit with me. I have never felt more welcome. My time at the mosque is the only time I’ve prayed as well.
I love Islam, the faith, the people, and the practice. I don’t know that I could convert though. I worry that I have far too many vices, interests, and behaviors that go against the piousness required and if I were to convert Id want to do it right and respectfully but I don’t want to completely reconfigure everything I am and everything I love. Islam is a very big commitment. A beautiful commitment, but I’m just really not sure it’s something I could do.
I also find the language barrier to be extremely overwhelming to overcome to pray and follow along fully during service.
