Salam alaikum everybody, i have a question regarding dua. So we all know dua is accepted in 3 ways: granted as it is, removes harm or saved for the hereafter. My question is does making that same dua over and over again, years even, continuously, change the way it's answered ? Like maybe it has removed a harm coming my way and since i'm still making it will have a chance to be actually granted ? This seems weird to ask but i'm genuinely wondering. If there's any people of knowledge i'd love to have an answer because idk who to ask.

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “I guarantee a house on the outskirts of Paradise, a house in the middle of Paradise, and a house in the highest part of Paradise for one who gives up arguing even if he is right.”

Source: al-Mu’jam al-Kabīr 217

Grade: Hasan li ghayrihi

Often times what I see on this subreddit and others is that people start out respectfully debating ideas but then soon it devolves into an ego-driven exchange. People keep on replying because they don't want the other to "have the last word." They think stopping replying means they've "lost the argument."

Often these internet arguments devolve into name calling "you're so dumb," or something. Often, I see on reddit arguments a reasonable person who's respectfully trying to explain ideas and the other person is being condescending, name calling, and not listening. I always remind the first person that giving up arguing is aligned with Islamic ethics.

Next time you are in an online debate with someone, make a mental checklist before you hit Reply each time. It is in Islamic ethics to constantly examine our niyyah (intention). Intentions can subtly change over the course of an argument.

Checklist before everytime you hit Reply:

- What percentage of my niyyah (intention) is a genuine attempt to provide guidance or exchange of ideas? What percentage of my niyyah is out of a fear of losing?

- Am I afraid that silence will look like defeat?

- Am I mocking, belittling, or using sarcasm? Is my language pleasing to Allah SWT?

- Would I be happy if I was proven wrong?

- Has the conversation become counterproductive? Is the other person mocking, insulting, or refusing to engage honestly?

Takeaway

As Muslims, we must fight our nafs to purify ourselves of arrogance. Sometimes, this can come in the form of arguing because you're afraid of looking like you lost. Even if you know you're right.

If you have made key points and the other person isn't listening, then walk away. You cannot force acceptance of an idea immediately but you can plant a seed. Readers can read both sides and judge for themselves.

(SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE SEEN THIS POST ALREADY BUT I’M JUST RE UPLOADING BECAUSE I DELETED IT TOO SOON)

I know people say that you should never underestimate the power of Allah, but isn’t it unrealistic to make dua for “the impossible?”

I’ve finished my exams but I honestly don’t believe I did too great and I’m really worried about my grades. Not only that, but I’ve been wanting to attend a really good university and after my exams, I believe I definitely did not get the grades I needed, though I do not get my results until August. Despite the last 2 years consisting of hardcore revision and discipline, I missed many questions during my exams due to limited time constraints, and the ones that I DID answer, were not at the best of my abilities. My question is, would it be unrealistic to have hope? I really want to attend to get the grades that I know I deserve, and the university that I’ve been wanting to attend, but I genuinely did not perform to well during my exams and it’s bringing me a lot of stress and worry. I feel as if making dua is my only hope, but even with that I don’t believe I’ll get/have gotten the grades.

Assalāmu ‘alaykum

​

Since my time studying in Egypt is unfortunately coming to an end, I have to start thinking about my goals and my time in the UK. One of those goals is educating and preparing myself for marriage - may Allāh make it easy for the brothers that are/will be searching.

​

Do you all have any tips on topics to research, and any specific material to go through?

​

What I currently have in mind is:

​

Topics - fiqh & virtues of marriage & women, women's psychology and traits, reasons for Muslim divorce, gender roles, how to give da‘wah

​

Materials - The Marriage Guide by Sheikh Albānī, Marital Guide by Sheikh ibn Bāz, Marriage and Divorce playlist by Sheikh Abū Suḥaib, Words of Advice Regarding Da‘wah by Sheikh ibn Bāz

​

BārakAllāh fīkum

I am a 21-year-old Muslim from a Slavic/Eastern European background. I converted to Islam about 4 years ago, Alhamdulillah, and I take my deen seriously. My intention is to get married in a halal and proper way, Insha’Allah — not casually, but with real commitment and long-term purpose.
The challenge I face is my environment. I live in a small town in Germany where the Muslim community is very small, so it’s difficult to naturally meet someone with serious marriage intentions. The nearest bigger city, like Berlin, is about 3 hours away, but even that feels uncertain in terms of finding the right person.
Another issue is that I often struggle to find someone I feel truly compatible with, both in terms of values and personal attraction. The options around me feel very limited, and that makes the process frustrating at times.
At the same time, I try to stay patient, make dua, and trust Allah (SWT) with tawakkul, believing that everything happens in its right time. But I also feel I need to take more practical steps and don’t fully know what the best approach is in my situation.
I genuinely want to know what someone in my position should do to increase the chances of finding a righteous spouse with serious marriage intentions, Insha’Allah.

So I am Christian, and I work in a large facility with a break room/cafeteria. A few times now, I have been on a break in a semi-enclosed space within the cafeteria (couch, chairs, books etc; it's pretty neat honestly), and a Muslim man has come in and said his prayers in a corner very close to me. I have always just stayed put , looking at my phone or whatever, and he has left immediately after.

​

Do you think the more polite or respectful thing would be for me to leave the room? I just figured not making a fuss or giving the wrong impression by getting up was the way to go, but idk. I never see the guy any other time, so I haven't asked him....

I'm a Muslim currently working in Japan, and There isn't a mosque near where I live. The nearest one is about an hour away by train, What troubles me even more is my job. I work at a pig slaughterhouse. The reason I came here was because my family is burdened with debt, and the wages in my home country weren't enough for me to help them pay the debt and still survive myself.

​

Before coming here, I applied to many places, but this was the only company that accepted me. At the time, it felt like I had no real alternative if I wanted to support my family.

​

I try to keep my faith, pray as much as I can, and do my best in my circumstances, but I often feel conflicted about my situation. I know what Islam teaches regarding pigs, and sometimes I wonder whether I'm doing something wrong by continuing this job when it's currently my family's main source of support.

​

I'm genuinely looking for advice from people who may have knowledge of Islam or who have been in similar situations. How should someone in my position approach this?

Last year I was going through a really tough time in my life and it brought me close to Allah (swt). My mom kept telling me if I just stayed steadfast in my salah and continue to remember Allah in dhikr and such that I wouldn’t feel this pain in my heart anymore, but it just never went away no matter how close I got to Him. I’m not sure what more I can do anymore. Since then I’ve been having a hard time reconnecting to Allah again and I feel extremely guilty about it but it feels like nothing will make my pain go away. Feels like I either have really bad luck or Allah doesn’t love me anymore.

I've recently embraced tawheed and true Islam and I feel like I'm closer to Allah than I was before and think that I was guided by Him. however my life recently has been filling up with challenges and I don't think I can ever find solutions to these problems or get relief from the things I've lost. I try to tell myself to trust His plan and surrender the things I can't solve, because I think I'm too weak for that. even after trying that, i still feel attached to the person I lost, and the immense despair I'm experiencing from the things that I need to solve but can't

I've heard you need to put in effort if you want something, but they're out of my hands and idk where to start from

so how do I trust Allah?? I want to have faith in Him and his plan but why can't I trust him enough? how do I change my way of thinking and increase my faith

I work at a place where mostly people are Christians and Atheists. I try to keep myself in the most state of Taqwa as best I can, meaning not backbite about supervisors, do zikr and not do zina of the eyes as being in my job women wear all kind of clothes and my colleagues kind of keep on pointing this out and I keep my eyes down and keep on telling them to behave as they might be someone's sister, mother and daughter but it keeps on striking weird arguments between them and me. Now I do want to make them realize whats the best course, first of not staring at other people's body/outfits, then try doing dawah like telling them that they need to be spending time on better things like reading and indulging in self elevation and they think im either completely old school and come down even harder on me to take me to do clubbing with them or start to ridiculing me which tbh I dont feel any remorse towards. I dont know how to push this back, or ignore and not do dawah anymore or what path to take forward from here. Any help in this regard will be very helpful. Thank you

I argued that while Christianity and Islam are two different religions, Catholicism, Orthodoxy, Protestantism are different branches of the same religion. My reasoning is that the three Christian branches share the same core doctrine (trinity, salvation through the cross, etc.) but just differ on practice and rituals whereas Christianity and Islam have fundamentally different core doctrines (Trinity, crucifixion vs Tawhid, Jesus being replaced and sent directly to heaven). Of course my underlying point is that sharing core doctrines is what differentiates a branch of a religion from a religion.

My friend argued that the different Christian branches are all different religions in the same way Christianity and Islam are different religions. He thinks that not only core doctrines, but also practice and rituals are core to the distinction. So Catholicism and Protestantism would be different religions because of papal infallibility vs not, faith plus works vs sola scriptura, etc. But I find this nonsensical though because then my childhood denomination (the United Church of Christ) would fundamentally be a different religion from United Methodists or Presbyterians, which I find ridiculous. Who do you agree with and why?

My father was a Muslim… he wasn’t the greatest man. He died indebted to many people. He abused his children(especially me), and his wife a lot. He struggled with a lot of mental issues and his own abuse as a child. I loved him a lot and pray for him during every prayer. What can I do to help him now that he’s gone? In a couple years I’ll be a doctor InshAllah and all I want to do is give to my parents, the one alive and the one deceased. I cared for him for 6 months before he passed… I feel like that wasn’t enough. My goals atm are to help my mother first, as much as I can and if Allah allows me InshAllah. Also figure out a legitimate way to help my father. It’s been almost 3 years since his passing but I still feel grief and am conflicted.

I’ve been struggling nonstop with Islam since about 2 years now and I just can’t seem to bring my heart any relief regarding it.

Not only do I rarely pray, which I realise is quite a big factor affecting my belief, but I just can’t seem to believe completely either. With the rise of atheism online, I find myself so so puzzled with what to believe and what not.

They bring up some logical points in their arguments like:

-Religion was created by man to cope with the fact there is nothing after death

-Religion was created by man because they couldn’t accept the fact women make life and want to control them further

And just other science related points like how heaven and hell cannot be possible and similar arguments.

Please if someone could help me open my eyes and my heart because I want to believe so so bad, I literally yearn for it, to be secure in my faith and have comfort regarding this life and the HereAfter.

Assalamualaikum everyone,

I'm going through something difficult and I don't know how to explain it properly, but I'll try.

For the past two to three years, I've felt like nothing in life has any real meaning. Everything feels empty, not in a sad way necessarily, just hollow. Like nothing matters. I know intellectually that Islam gives life purpose, but I can't feel it. It's like there's a wall between me and that conviction.

The part that worries me most is my ibadah. I pray, but my heart isn't in it. When I try to recite Quran, something inside me resists, like I'm being pulled away from it. I don't feel khushoo, I don't feel connection, nothing. And the more this continues, the more my life feels like it's slipping out of my control. My nafs feels completely untamed.

Some people have suggested it could be the evil eye or jinn interference. I'm not dismissing that, but I genuinely don't know how to evaluate it or where to start.

My questions for the community:

Has anyone experienced this kind of spiritual numbness or disconnection?

How do you distinguish between a spiritual or psychological crisis and something like ain or jinn?

What helped you return to Allah when your heart felt completely closed off?

Any sincere advice would be appreciated. JazakAllah khair.

What actually is the meaning/translation of the shahada?

So people say Allah is the Arabic word for God, but if that were the case if you were to translate the shahada into English wouldn’t it read

“There is no God but God.”

Which doesn’t make sense, however I have seen another translation which is

“There is no deity but God.”

Which again that couldn’t really make sense because the use of the word deity isn’t just exclusive to a creator, it may be anything of spiritual nature with significant influence but not necessarily a sole creator.

Then to say “There is no God but Allah” that could not be classed as a full translation as you have not translated the word Allah which kind of brings us back in a loop to “There is no God but God”

The reason I’m seeking clarity on this is because now I’m seeing “There is no God only Allah” using “only” instead of “but” suggests that Allah is implying pre existing understandings of what God is does not exist and that Allah is of a different nature.

I’ll attach a picture here which sparked my thinking. As though the idea of God being a separate entity is redefined in the shahada as there is no God (separate entity) there is just Allah (the Oneness). And as Allah said all creatures submit to him willingly or unwillingly this supports the idea that all creation is one with Allah.

Now, what I’m about to say may raise some eyebrows and in no way shape or form am I saying this is a reliable way to think about Islam or religion in general but I’d thought I’d share. A couple of years ago before I was even certain I believed in God I smoked DMT which is a type of psychedelic, me and the other person both came to a conclusion where everything felt one and we did not feel alone. I find it to difficult to try articulate that feeling but it was as thought there was no separate self or ego there just was this feeling everything is one. Since reading the quote below it did take me back to remembering how that experience felt. I am opposed to the idea of using substances now and I do not believe it’s the right route into understanding things but there probably are a lot of reverts who at a time wanted to seek truth so badly before we heard about Islam and likely have done these things.

But it had me thinking is Allah the One or the Oneness?

I’ve also heard people say that the translation of Allah is The God rather than just God which again further confuses things.

Dear brothers and sisters,

I am a 20-year-old Muslim currently suffering from intense Waswasa.

In my family, many struggle with OCD. I personally have never been diagnosed or sought therapy. Why? I’m not sure. Perhaps I’ve been hesitant because I want to rely solely on Allah to heal me.

My Waswasa has become so severe at times that it affects my daily life. I struggle to sleep or think clearly. It is an immense burden, and as a result, I feel my Iman weakening. Every small incident triggers a spiral of anxiety.
For example, I recently created a GMX email account for newsletters, using fake details because I wanted to stay private. A test subscription was accidentally started, which I cancelled within minutes. For most people, this would be the end of it. But my brain immediately starts creating "What if?" scenarios: "What if I get into legal trouble because of the fake details?" "What if, even after deleting the account, I start receiving bills for payments I never made?"

The truth is, there was no invoice because it was a free trial month, and using a pseudonym is not illegal. I know this logically, yet my mind keeps racing. Why does my brain do this?

My parents tell me I must learn to fear only Allah, and I truly try to do that. But the scenarios Shaitan plants in my mind keep me from finding peace. This fear is consuming me. I was never a person who worried about such trivial things. When I talk to my mother about my worries, she tells me: "It won’t happen! By Allah’s will, it won’t happen! Just trust in Him."

I admire how calm and peaceful she moves through life. Her trials are often greater than mine, yet she never lets fear take over. Her Tawakkul is immense.
How can I reach that state? How do I stop overthinking and questioning every single action? How do I stop fearing things that haven’t even happened and most likely never will? Any advice or Dua would be greatly appreciated.

Ever since last year, for some reason ive been missing my prayers more and more and I feel so guilty of it. I have been praying but not consistently. For instance, maybe today I'll pray Zuhr and Asr but tomorrow I might pray Asr and Maghrib. Sometimes I dont even pray at all. I have been in a hardship for a year now and I want this to stop. Everytime I want to pray I just purposely forget although I know skipping it would lead to a hardship even harder and it being just simply sinful. How do I start praying again and tighten my iman with Allah?

Asalamu alaykum everybody. This is my very first post ever on Reddit. I have been struggling for a while now with a lot of things that have challenged me and my faith. I have just finished university and it is safe to say that this has been the hardest year of my life. Anxiety is destroying me. I have severe health anxiety. I pray so much to Allah.

I pray tahajjud. I studied 2 years for a medical school exam that I failed twice. My dream was to go to pharmacy school and I was rejected this year. I was rejected from 2 of the masters I applied for. I do not have many friends, if any. It is safe to say that we live in a time where I feel that other Muslim girls tend to give evil eye to one another and can sometimes belittle one another as I have consistently seen around me. I keep to myself but sometimes it gets too much. I never enjoyed university because I had no friends. I am so sick and tired of the endless nights I spend without sleep because of my anxiety.

I am anxious all the time and when it stops, I am lucky for a day or two before I pay attention to my body excessively and it spikes again. I would say my faith is strong alhamdullilah but can definitely be improved. I am jobless and have applied to so many jobs. My last job I applied for I did 3 interview rounds that wrecked me emotionally and physically and I ended up being let go after being trained in. I never felt comfortable in the job and prayed tahajjud that night and subhanallah the next day they rejected me and I went with the mentality and belief that Allah saw something I could not see, so of course alhamdullilah for that blessing.

But it gets too much sometimes. I am sad for no reason sometimes and I can’t help but feel that I am wasting my life away doing nothing. It was really bad last year and I was convinced it was evil eye as in my last job I was getting a lot of compliments and I talked too much which I stopped doing and have noticeably felt I was getting better. The truth is that I need advice with life. Why am I praying so much for something but it is not granted? I will spend years praying for something and that dream will come shattering down on me without reason. I want to be happy and healthy again even if my studies don’t fulfill me or I am not surrounded my friends. I just want my health back ya Allah. Thank you for reading this far.

Hello to everybody in the community!

I’m writing a paper on religious views regarding drug use, including not only illegal substances but also legal ones, whether prescribed by a doctor or available to buy. It also includes cigarettes and nicotine addiction.

The premise is simple: different religions and their views regarding drug use, as well as how religious communities prevent, address and support members dealing with active addiction.

I’ve spoken to some religious leaders but would appreciate hearing from practitioners to gain a broader perspective.

Thank you very much!

Salam everyone,

I'm actually not Muslim, I'm an antizionist Jew, but I have nothing but respect for Islam and Muslims.

I am coming here because I recently got my heart broken by a Muslim man who dated me for three years without introducing me to his parents, and who then dropped me because of them. The Muslim girlies warned me, but I didn't listen.

I'm coming here to literally beg Muslim men to, if you get into a relationship with a non-Muslim girl, PLEASE inform them of their Islamic rights in the relationship RIGHT AWAY and DON'T do haram things and lie and tell us it's halal. Please go about things the right way if you want to be with a girl. Go to your parents. Ask an imam or sheikh.

I know this isn't all Muslim men, not by a long shot, but if you are even considering dating a person of the book and doing haram things while saying it's halal, please take this post to heart. Don't get close if you're doing it in a way that will keep you from staying close.

It hurts you and it hurts us if you treat us this way.

my body is slowly giving up on me. i have been living in survival mode for so long that i don’t remember what peace feels like anymore.

every day feels like i’m just trying to make it through the next hour. i’ve prayed, made dua, tried to stay patient, but i’m exhausted. i feel like i’m carrying years of fear, stress and pain with no real break from it.

the hardest part is that i can feel my faith slipping. i don’t want it to. i still think about Allah constantly, but i’m struggling to understand why this keeps happening. i don’t know how much more of this i can carry.

i don’t want anything extraordinary from life. i just want some relief. i want to feel normal again. right now i feel physically and emotionally worn down, and i’m scared of what all this is doing to me.

Hello everyone. I’m a Muslim woman (ethnically Turkish but born and raised in UK) but I’m not as practicing as I want to be - as an example, I don’t currently know how to properly perform the five daily prayers, although I want to learn and inshaAllah become more consistent over time, I fast during Ramadan (and of course do not consume any alcohol or pork etc.) I try to do the best I can currently, I regularly make dua and read prayers, but overall salah is something I’m still working on learning.

I wanted to pray Tahajjud for a personal reason and because I genuinely want to connect with Allah. My question is, even though I don’t currently pray the five daily prayers, is it still okay for me to pray Tahajjud? Do you think it could still be accepted, or should I wait until I’ve learned and become more consistent with the daily prayers?

I’d appreciate any advice or thoughts, thank you everyone

Can you guys help me with specific prayers or stuff that I can do to dream about her?

So I lost a really loved one, a girl who accepted my flaws as it is, who didn't ever get bored from me opening up and telling her all my flaws and kept me safe and even encouraged me to do better, wether it's with my relationship with God, fighting addictions and even doomscrolling. I really really love her infact I adore her.

I didn't do her justice when she were alive, I thought by refusing any form of love would I be safe, I didn't accept my feelings till she told me her lifespan, now I'm torn if I loved her before that or after it, and it just hurts so much to think that if my feelings were only amplified by it or did I really love her that. I mean I liked talking to her, starting my day I would message her, something funny I would share with her, just talk about life, waiting for her replies, I know all of that screams love but why didn't I think of "I love her", maybe because she was 2 years older, maybe because she was much smarter, maybe because she even had a guy she would always talk about.

The thought that I might have only became her boyfriend for the last days of her life because I couldn't understand my feelings hurts me so much, I rather to believe that I was lying to myself the entire time I knew her before her telling me my span.

I still adore her now I want to be hers in heaven and do her the justice she deserves.

It pains me whenever I go to sleep and I don't dream of her "does she forgive me?", "Did I love her like a partner?", "Why doesn't she want to visit me and ease life on me like she always did?", why am I thinking of her saying 'sorry, love sorry for everything" while she's crying and turning her back and leaving, I don't want that.

Also thoughts like "why can't she visit me is she in hell?"

"Why can't she visit me is she having a hard life in barzakh?" I can't help but overthink everything.

I know that with "hardness comes ease, with hardness comes ease" I want to her to be the ease our time together was short I can't handle it.

I wanted to travel with her, hang out more, go to festivals and ceremonies.

I just want to see her again, talk to her again, I want to know if she will be my wife and partner in heaven since we couldn't even reach the age of marriage together.

I'm going to become old and wrinkle and she will always be as youthful as ever I want her to see me getting older, to guide me again, to tell me "I'm with you it's gonna be okay", to tell me "I'm happy here thanks for everything im waiting for you to put the ring here just like you promised if I had time.".

I literally can't type enough so if you guys have any questions please feel free to ask.

So please can any of you help know how to dream of her, I have been praying for it much, crying while praying for it, it has been 2 months and it just gets harder.

I recently got a job at a huge MNC and I need to know how the girls are finding corporate appropriate abaya.

I'm used wearing the hijab, and during my college I'd wear abaya but I'd remove it inside the campus since it was a women's college (yeah very normal in the place i live in) and I'm also not used to going outside alot, but since I got this job it's a struggle to find an abaya to wear everyday, sometimes it's even feel like letting go of it, but I dont wanna do that I wear my hijab and abaya for myself and my creator, but when I see people just going with their lives throwing a top and pant and calling it day, I cannot i need to think on an outfit that's breathable under my abaya, then I need to choose an abaya then I need to choose a hijab thst goes with my abaya, sometimes it feels overwhelming, but I don't wanna give on my faith, so corporate GIRLS who wear ABAYA I need you advice or just share your thoughts on this it's an open discussion

PS: DO NOT COME HERE TO TELL ME THAT MY HIJAB AND ABAYA IS AN OPRESSION, IT'S NOT.

Du’a For Overthinking & Anxiety 🌻

Today we are exposed to the suffering of millions of people in ways no previous generation experienced. A person wakes up in the comfort of their home and within minutes sees war, famine, floods, poverty, political turmoil, economic uncertainty, and the personal struggles of family and friends.

The human heart was not designed to bear the emotional weight of the entire globe every hour of the day. For anyone who suffers from anxiety, remember to make du’a, May Allah make it easy for all of us 🤲🏻🌻

Asslamu alaikum! I hope everyone is well.

A Muslimah who is close with me admitted that there are multiple Muslims and non-Muslims she has slandered and back-bitten in the past. She has been able to receive direct forgiveness from some, but she has lost contact with others.

Although it's permissible to give Sadaqah on behalf of Muslim people, she is wondering if it is permissible to give Sadaqah in the name of the non-Muslims she's wronged? Would £/$100 suffice for all the people she's wronged and doesn't remember, in addition to sincere repentance? She's really desperate for forgiveness and for being cleared of this spiritual debt, In Sha Allah.

Thank you!

I wanna talk about miswak: the sunnah toothbrush of our beloved prophet Muhammad, (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), the problem of all modern day toothbrushes is: they are toxic (releasing microplastics), and they pollute our planet, because plastic toothbrushes are thrown away everyday in the world, the miserable attempts of trying to fix those mistakes come to animal fur (usually pig or horse) but their problem is that they are haven for bacteria multiplication, and they fastly lose their cleaning effect. And the way they are trying to fix it is just hilarious, because they wanna make reusable toothbrushes, well to be exact reusable toothbrush holders, they wanna sell just the top heads with bristles separately from the handles, which maybe lower the plastic pollution while still leaving the microplastics problem.

Miswak on the other hand, is a cleaning, eco, hygienic, affordable and renewable alternative to the modern day toothbrush that was forced tonus by big companies, it may feel unusual the first time you use it ( maybe its specific smell,or that its a just a straight pick) , but overtime these weird feelings about miswak just disappear and the pros of miswak heavily very heavily overweight the cons.

What should i say, our Prophet's ,(peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), sunnah still beats brands force.

For me, this post is a vent and an attempt to understand others. I’m not trying to judge anyone but i’m in despair and i feel helpless not understanding others or knowing what to do.

I do not want any arguments about hijab, tabarruj or music. I know what i believe to be true and if you do not believe it to be true then this post isn’t directed at you respectfully. I want to understand those who believe but simply do not care and i want to know of those who can relate with me.

I do not listen to it but navigating everyday life without it is quite difficult because it’s everywhere. But i try my best to avoid functions with it. Culturally, music is ingrained in all cultures. It is a known part of most celebrations even something as simple as a picnic. I find that when I’m in such functions where music is played, i cant enjoy the whole thing. I end up being like a grinch and a downer. I am not comfortable and i end up feeling sad and helpless not understanding why everyone else is so hung up on music.

I become even more sad when i see children dancing to music and parents encouraging it because it is a cultural thing. It makes me scared for my own child and for the ummah. It feels like i am standing by a window looking into a room with people playing loud music, laughing and dancing and i just don’t understand.

I am trying so hard to obey Allah and i look around me and no one cares. Does it not matter? Same thing with the hijab and tabarruj. I do not like to snap pictures with others because it becomes weird to tell them not to post me when i am already in a picture with them. And then people take offense that i do not take pictures.

I struggle everyday with my hijab and i look around and no one else cares. It is not an issue of having a hijab journey. It is simply what is culturally accepted as modesty triumphing the legislated hijab and nobody cares. I am the one overdoing it to them.

So muslim girlies who perhaps understand all what i wrote and can relate to an extent. How do you deal with it? Your emotions and your relations with others? And if there’s anyone who simply doesn’t care.. what’s your thought process? What’s your plan? Do you really not care?

Assalamu Alaikum,

I have a question that has been bothering me for a long time, and I hope someone can help me understand it.

I am a Muslim, but the main reason I am Muslim is that I was born into a Muslim family. At the same time, I have friends who are not Muslims because they were born into non-Muslim families and were raised with different beliefs.

Because of this, I sometimes wonder: isn’t that an unfair advantage for me and a disadvantage for them? If I had been born in their circumstances, I might have followed the religion I was raised with as well.

This question becomes even more difficult for me when I hear people say that non-Muslims will not enter Paradise. If people’s beliefs are heavily influenced by where and to whom they were born, how is that justice ? How does Islamic theology address this concern while maintaining Allah’s perfect justice and mercy?

I am asking sincerely and respectfully,I genuinely want to understand.

Parents breached my privacy, forced an ultimatum, and now I’ve moved out. Am I being undutiful (Uqooq) in Islam?

I am a 24-year-old financially stable man Alhamdulillah. I work, have my own savings, and actually rent my own apartment, though I was living with my parents for Eid.
And earlier, Out of pure trust—and to ensure my family was protected if anything ever happened to me—I voluntarily gave my mother my phone and banking passwords.
Recently, while I was out at the mosque for prayer, my mother used my password to go through all of my private WhatsApp conversations. She found two things that caused an absolute explosion when I got home:
1. \*\*Conversations with my paternal uncles:\*\* My parents have a deeply toxic, bitter history with my father's brothers, and we were raised to view them as enemies. However, as I practiced my Islam, I learned the severe gravity of \*Silat al-Rahim\* (maintaining ties of kinship). My uncles messaged me on Eid to wish me well, and as a Muslim, I simply replied to their \*Salam\* and returned the Eid greetings.
2. \*\*Conversations with marriage potentials:\*\* I am actively looking to get married to protect my chastity. My parents flatly refused to help me until a certain age, so I took the initiative to respectfully contact the fathers of potential spouses myself.
When I returned from prayers, my mother was furious. She confiscated my phone, and my dad physically blocked me from getting near her to retrieve my property. She then publicly mocked my marriage efforts to humiliate me in front of the family. Finally, they gave me an ultimatum: permanently hand over my phone/privacy, or leave the house.
Because my patience was entirely exhausted and I have my own place, I chose to leave.
I did not use force or yell, but I am absolutely terrified. I know how heavy the status of parents is in Islam. I am frozen by the fear that leaving them while they are angry constitutes \*Uqooq\* (disobedience) and will earn Allah’s wrath.
Has anyone been through a similar situation, or does anyone have scholarly advice on how to navigate this? How do I establish healthy adult boundaries and protect my Islam without destroying my relationship with my parents?

Disclamer: I don’t wish to offend any practitioners or any religion. I don’t speak English; I’m using a translator. If some of my comments seem harsh or offensive, it’s really down to the translator – and that’s not just an excuse. Thank you for your understanding.

Hello, here is my concern. I was born into a Muslim family; the members of this family are either Muslim or atheist. Some are Muslim but are not practising (they do not pray). My mother is one of them. I was not raised as a Muslim and I respect that because, for me, one must choose one’s own path and not have it imposed upon them.

I am now hesitating to practise this religion. But I have a concern: apart from my health issues, which prevent me from performing ablutions with water (I think this problem can be easily overcome) and from being regular and punctual in my practice, I cannot speak Arabic. I have never learnt it. My parents speak it, but we never spoke the language at home. Yet this poses a problem for practising the religion. I have learnt a few surahs by heart, but, despite reciting them every day without actually performing a proper prayer, not only do I not know what I am saying, but I am gradually forgetting them. Some members of my family tell me that all I need to do is learn Arabic, but we’re talking about learning a difficult language that won’t be of any use to me in everyday life. It would be easier to learn the Arabic used in the Quran only.

But even then, the practice is strict and poses a problem for me. Between wearing the hijab, eating exclusively halal in a city where halal meat is hard to come by, and Ramadan (which I’ve done before but which traumatised me), the ban on listening to music, having to cover up as much as possible to avoid showing any curves, being forced to marry a Muslim, and so on. I have no desire to become a nun; I just want to get closer to God...

I get the impression that the Qur’an only talks about punishment if you don’t do this or that

But at the same time, aren’t we bound to God through the religion we were born into? Even though it’s complicated in my family, as I’m surrounded by atheists or non-practising believers (plus my father was born into a Muslim family, became interested in Christianity, and then, due to his health problems, was no longer able to think about much of anything)

There are many times people think what they are doing makes them a righteous Muslim but what they are doing is a sin. Be careful not to fall into these traps. Examples below. All Arabic vocabulary defined at the end for new Muslims.

Exposing others' sins

In Islam, the Muslim who conceals others' sin, on judgement day will have their own sins concealed. Source.

Many think they're being righteous by exposing others and calling sins out but actually it is harming them spiritually.

Often, someone will post something online and another person will spread around screenshots mocking what they say. But the prophet (ﷺ) emphasized mercy and concealment whenever possible, save for fiqhi exceptions (e.g. legal tesimony, warning against fraud, etc.) Source.

Casual Takfir

Declaring anyone a kafir is a serious matter in Islam. False accusations can turn the accuser kafir. Source.

Classical scholars took numerous steps before declaring someone a kafir. This included clarifying what the person meant, guiding them, giving them time to turn back to guidance, etc.Source.

Today, casual takfir is alarmingly common, especially online. People are throwing around accusations of being kafir like baseballs. They think they are being righteous but they are harming themself spiritually. Too many uneducated Muslims throw around takfir accusations for sins that, according to fiqh, do not excommunicate one from Islam. This is dangerous.

Declaring someone will go to Hell

Some Muslims look at a sinner and declare them bound for Hell. They think they are being righteous but this is spiritually very dangerous.

One hadith describes two men: one a sinner, one righteous. The righteous man one day declares the sinner will go to Hell (another narration says Allah will not forgive him). Allah gets extremely angry at this statement and the man's good deeds are destroyed. Source.

Too many Muslims are quick to declare someone is bound for Hell, not realizing the dangerous weight of the statement they are making.

Treating harshness as piety

Islam strongly emphasizes mercy, respect, and balance. Many Muslims think they are being righteous when they are harsh with others but it is spiritually not healthy. Examples:

- Forbidding permissible enjoyment

- Treating every difference of scholarly opinion as deviance

- Making any political ideology a part of faith

Moderation and mercy are integral parts of Islam. Practicing harshness towards others in religious matters is not encouraged.

Dictionary

Fiqh = Islamic jurisprudence

Takfir = Declaring someone a kafir, or excommunicating them from Islam

Kafir = One who knowingly disbelieves in Islam despite the full truth reaching them

Recently, I’ve been genuinely struggling with wearing the hijab and keeping it on. For some context, I’ve worn the hijab for the majority of my life, but when I first decided to put it on, I honestly felt like I was doing it more for my parents than for myself.

Over the past year or so, I’ve been having thoughts about taking it off because I feel like I’m not wearing it properly and, more importantly, that I’m not wearing it sincerely for the sake of Allah (SWT). I feel stuck in this dilemma because I don’t want to be disrespectful toward something so important, but at the same time I’m struggling with my intentions and feelings surrounding it. I also feel really scared about being judged by my family if I do take it off, especially because my mum really wants me to keep it on, which makes the whole situation even harder for me.

I was wondering if anyone else has gone through something similar or has any advice. I’d really appreciate hearing different perspectives.

assalamualaikum everyone,

I had a question regarding reading Surah baqarah daily. I can read Arabic albeit very slowly, currently im struggling to read more than 10 pages a day. I am considering whether it would be better to read the translation in english which I could probably read the whole Surah daily or try to listen to it in Arabic daily.

I guess my question is, is it better to read 10 pages in Arabic or the whole Surah in English or even listen to the whole Surah daily. Which would bring more blessing to my life?

assalamualaikum,

i’m a muslim girl finishing high school and i’ve been struggling with a situation from both an islamic and emotional perspective.

there’s a guy i’ve known through school and over time we became emotionally attached through regular conversations. nothing physical or openly inappropriate happened, but recently we admitted that we both like each other.

the problem is that we both also feel guilt and don’t know what the “right” thing to do is islamically. we already tried fully stopping contact for a few months, but eventually started talking again in a more limited way.

we’re both young and not really in a position for marriage right now, but i also don’t want to stay emotionally attached in a confusing situation with no direction.

i wanted advice on:

  • what’s the most balanced islamic way to handle this?
  • is it possible to keep things respectful and intentional without fully cutting each other off?
  • realistically, for people who experienced something similar young, what ended up happening?

i’m not looking for harsh judgment, just sincere and balanced advice.

jazakallah khair.

S.a. everyone. My mother has been diagnosed with a severe leaking heartvalve. The doctor has told us that surgery is necessary ASAP. I’m torn as it is a very big surgery (open heart surgery).

I know all things come from Allah. I leave everything to Him, but I can’t help but be very anxious. I’m an only child, and losing my mother would mean I love a big part of my life. My father is still alive and well Alhamdoulillah, but I don’t have the same emotional bond with him as I do with my mother. I can’t help but cry day and night.

I wanted to do Istikhara and advised my mother to do the same. However, as I was scrolling online, I cam across this question on one of the Islamic sites, and an Imam replied with: “As for the treatments regarding your health, you should listen to the advice of your trusted doctor as they are knowledgeable of what is needed for your wellbeing. Taking care of one’s health is farḍ and should not be taken lightly. The word of a trusted, reputable doctor is sufficient in this regard.”. Does this mean Istikhara is not necessary? Or not advised?

Can you guys tell me your experiences with it? Maybe with severe health problems that were healed after a big surgery? I think I need something to hold onto, something that’ll make me breathe out and say Alhamdoulillah for everything. I trust Allah, but I genuinely can not help but be burdened.

Thank you all in advance!

Since we are in a very blessed days which is full of mercy and kindness from Allah. I ask you all, during these blessed days, to make duaa for my mother and father to get back to their healthy days and get speedy recovery and well-being,

and for me to go to hajj while I'm still young with my mum and dad in health and well being yarab, and to have a decent life full of happiness and peace and success with full health and have a righteous, pure, and beautiful husband, me and all the daughters of ummah muhammed , peace and blessings be upon him.

Since that duaa بظهر الغيب or when Muslims make duaa to each other without knowing the other person is answered so if any one want specific duaa just say it may one of us is much closer to Allah.

I hope and ask Allah to make your days be filled with goodness and happiness and satisfaction and never lose your selves and far away from any sins.

After yesterday's shooting I believe it is very important for Muslims to legally arm themselves for protection as a way to deter lunatics from attacking a masjid. After Christchurch I bought my first gun and encouraged family and friends to practice this right as well. Now I am thinking that there should be a 2nd Amendment workshop at local masjids to teach congregants about this right as allowed to the local laws as well as first aid training. Many of the crazies in this society view us as both a "scary threat" and weak. This view has emboldened them to bully and dehumanize us. Alhamdullilah there was a guard that prevented this from being worse.

What I pray for is a change in perception of how we are viewed in this society. If many people know that we are practicing the 2nd Amendment in high numbers then this will make anyone that wants to threaten Muslims think twice and also will build respect in our neighbor's eyes.

I just want to know what everyone else thinks about this and if there are already similar workshops at your masjid. May Allah SWT accept the Shuhadah and keep us all safe. Ameen.

My parents. I don't enjoy their presence in my life anymore. They're not bad people, and they have the best intentions, but their actions have only served to make my life difficult. For far too long, I've been excusing them, telling myself that "they just know what's best for me" or that "they're just trying to help" and it has caused a constant internal war with myself. Only recently have I started to accept that maybe I do, in fact, hate them. It's left me feeling liberated. What angers me the most is, they're under the illusion that they're "on my side" and "supporting me from the sidelines" but they're really just an obstacle to me. I percieve them as an opposition, enemies, even. I hate to play the blame game, but I really don't think it's my fault that I feel this way. It's tragic that at some point, at a more naïve period of my life, I used to love them and even look up to them; those feelings aren't completely gone, but they're much more outweighed by the negative feelings I've cultivated. Allah says I should love them regardless, I know that, but it's so, so difficult; it's an uphill battle I'm tired of. Every time I convince myself to forgive them and love them again, they make me regret it once more. I've started to hate all their mannerisms. The way they talk, the way they laugh, the way they cry, the way they love, the way they hate, all of it. It's like they're unknowingly supplying me with fuel for the hatred. I'm exhausted. I don't know if things can get back to normal. I still have years upon years of living and interacting with them daily, which I dread. I don't want to sit and talk with them and "sort things out". I've done it before and I've only regretted it. They made me regret it. I can't be honest and tell them any of this either; that would be too hurtful. It leaves me not knowing what to do, or if I should even do anything. I hope one day I can look back on this and know things have gotten better.

My faith in islam is always regenerated when I read a hadith or a verse describing the behavior of a prophet or a thing God did.
For me, it's the verses where the mercy and the kindness of Allah are depicted, or hadiths showing the patience and kindness of the Prophet ﷺ. It's heartwarming.

Here's one hadith that has changed all of my vision of islam. And sometimes I'm crying on it because we often heard our God is always talking about punishment, about the Hell etc. But when you read the Quran or when you see your duas granted, you can't reduce Allah to punishment or severity.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

I heard Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying, "When Allah created the creatures, He wrote in the Book, which is with Him over His Throne: 'Verily, My Mercy prevailed over My Wrath"

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

Allah says in the Quran that giving sadaqah never decreases wealth, rather it brings barakah, mercy, and increase from Allah. And the Prophet ﷺ taught us that charity protects a person, removes hardships, and becomes a light for them in this dunya and akhirah. Even a small act of kindness given sincerely for the sake of Allah is عظیم in the sight of Allah.

I recently adopted a 1 month old kitten who was separated from her mother, and because of that she didn’t get the necessary antibodies from breastfeeding. She came down with 2 viruses and a bacterial infection and we have been treating her for the past week, she isn’t getting better or worse but I am deathly scared for her as I’ve grown a bond with her and she’s very precious. The vets say her chances are 50/50 at this point, and we’ll have a clearer idea of whether she’ll recover in the coming days. Is there any dua I can make for her to get better?

I have kind of gaslighted myself into being a follower of God. I always called it "Im walking with God" through life - still figuring out which religion is the truth (studying the Quran, Bible, different philosophies...)

This year, I have had A LOT of prayers where I cried for help, sometimes for an hour straight, suicidal thoughts, begging to get ANY feedback.

My religious friends (no matter which) tell me about their encounters with God: "God told me...", Gods spirit in their life, God answering their prayers, one friend even said she saw a physical biblical angel.

...and im like: GOD WHY THE FUCK DO YOU TALK TO ANYONE BUT ME. I AM REACHING OUT, IM TRYING TO FIND YOU - TALK BACK TO ME. I cant do this anymore bro.

Am I doing everything in my power to find God?
No, of course not, I could read more, pray more, less screentime - BUT FOR GODS SAKE, I am sincerely asking for him FOR YEARS to show up in my life, and still nothing that convinces me. He is God, he is the more powerful one.

Im really starting to think that there is no one watching over us, maybe there once was someone who created all this, but he is long gone.

24 y/o.

Any Advice? Im pretty sure a lot of people have gone through this?
