Please pray for me

Please everyone, please make dua and pray for me. Lately, everything has been going badly in my life. And at this moment, I'm pretty much at rock bottom. I'm away from friends, family, everything familiar, and I have absolutely nothing save religion to keep me going; even then, I've been sinking deeper into depression. I've never felt so alone in my life before, life itself seems so pointless to me. Each day I'm struggling just not to break down.

If this is a test, I'm near the very end of how much I can bear. I feel like it'll be nice to just fall asleep and not have to face the day anymore.

Sister you are in a similar situation as mine. Always try to remind your heart that everything we face is the decree of Allah (subuhaanahu wata'aala) and He is the Most Merciful. Try to remember the Hadiths of Rasoolullah (sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam) that the road to Jannah is filled with difficulties and hardships. It will NEVER be easy for us to enter such a place so easily. Its very expensive, so the price cannot be cheap.

Also try to remind that the status of our Iman is known by the level of the tests we face. Is our tests difficult than that of Bilal, Ammar bin Yasir , Mus'ab bin 'Umair (radiyallahu 'anhum) etc etc? Wallahi NO. Its not even comparable. So we need to be patient.

In Surah al-Asr, Allah (subuhaanahu wata'aala) says about the four compulsory subjects to pass the exam to Jannah. If we fail in any one of them, then Jannah is not for us. One of the four is advice one another for patience. Inorder to advice someone, we should be the first to believe and act upon it.

Get up sister. Wipe out the tears and make Wudu. Pray 2 rak'ahs and ask Allah (subuhaanahu wata'aala).

InshaAllah I will pray for you.

wassalam 'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh

Salaamalaikum respected sister,

Insha'Allah we will make dua'a that Allah swt makes it easy for you.

I know that you are currently in US, away from home from your previous threads. And you have also mentioned that you miss your friends from back home, which is something very very normal.

I would like to strongly encourage you to go to a closeby masjid and spend a lot of time there and try to make friends in the masjid. You will quickly make a lot of friends and perhaps some of them can also help you in other things that you are finding difficult currently.


Do not despair sister. Allah swt will soon make everything for you. It is always difficult to settle down in a new country in the beginning. But slowly, things fall in to place and all the difficulties go away one by one.

Sister, just remember that even if something didn't work out on a particular day, that day is still important for you. Because you made your fardh salah 5 times a day and carried out other tasks of worship to please your lord. You don't want to sleep through it,sister. You would rather want to have your good deeds multiplied and please your Creator as much as you can.

If there is any kind of information that you need about Houston, I can try and ask someone about it, so please let me know.

Insha'Allah I look forward to hear some good news from your end.

May Allah swt make everything easy for our sister. Ameen

Wasalaamalaikum waa rahmatullahi

sister, my heart goes out to you, please be strong. life is a big test, Allah says 'do you think you will be left saying 'we believe' and will not be tested'. the fact that Allah is testing you shows you that He prefers you and will test youre faith. we all have our ups and downs and im sure many of us have felt this lonely feeling. Allah says 'verily after hardship comes ease' it will work out for you. you have the Quraan as youre friend and Allah is there 24/7, ever listening. I also recommend you say 'lahawla wa la quwwata illah billah' many times and also 'astaghfirullah'

i hope things work out for you soon

we are always here for you

Beloved sister, you are definitely in our prayers :)

Just remember, that Allaah is always with you no matter what. I really think you should listen to Zain Bhika's nasheed "Allah knows". Ive put it here for you habibtii, i hope it makes you feel better inshaAllah :) Personally i like to listen to it when i feel like i cant cope with anything any longer.

Sis, Allah says in the Qur'an:
[We do not impose on any soul a duty except to the extent of its ability-- they are the dwellers of the Garden [Paradise]; in it they shall abide forever.] (Al-A`raf 7:42)

I was reading this online, i hope it helps you too inshaAllah.

Allah never burdens us with more than we can cope with. It is good once in a while just to think about others around us in the world. When we compare the little things that make us moan and complain with the genuine heartbreak and tragedy that others face, we should really be ashamed of ourselves.

We get over even the worst times in our lives. Although unbearable at the time, they pass and we can look back and learn from them. In fact, what had seemed a disaster can often turn out for the good.

As Muslims, we should try not to give in to those moments of doubt and unhappiness. At those times, especially, we can turn to Allah in prayer and pour out our troubles before Him. He knows about every leaf falling from every tree, so He knows what is troubling us.

If we are put through bad experiences, then our trial is whether we show perseverance and patience (Sabr) in these times or not.

Both good times and bad times come in all our lives, generally. Both times are our real tests.

Our hardships may appear to be problems much bigger than everyone else’s, but we must also remember that Allah (SWT) will not burden us with something we cannot cope with.

Our objective as a Muslim is to surrender to His Will since we know and should have trust that He always means well for us. This is the spirit of Islam.

Surah 94: v6: "Verily along with every hardship is relief, (ie. There is one hardship with two reliefs, so one hardship cannot overcome two reliefs).

Surah 3: v 286: "Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope…"

Ukhtii, i really hope you feel better soon. If there is anything we can do for you then please don't hesitate in asking, we would be more than happy to help you out :) *hugs*

Uhibbuk filLah sis

TC always and be strong
May Allah help you.

As-salamu alaikum sis

The prophet(saw) said, "The world is a prison for believers, and a paradise for non-believers." sister if you feel lonely, that's just a part of this dunya's test...if you need a family, you always have one here....and if you need a companion, there's nothing better than the QUR'AN.
I've been away from my family for 8 yrs and wallahi, i still feel like a part of me is missing...but this is allah's doing, it was meant for you and I to get seperated from our families.
sis, don't forget allah, keep him close to your heart...he'll surely guide you through this insha'allh.
If you need a friend, i'm always here and i'll definetly pray for you
ma'salaam

Thank you everyone, and jazakumallah khair for your kind and helpful words. I can't express my gratitude enough. :)

I'll try hard. Alhamdulillah, I had two job interviews today, and a whole bunch of new job applications to fill up. Lol, my education seems like nothing compared to not having too much work experience, but I must build up everything from scratch. I'm curious to know where Allah will place me regarding jobs. I'm trying in every single field, I want to see what happens next. Inshallah, something good.

This Sunday, I also went and volunteered in the office at the masjid Sunday school. It was just an okay experience. I mean, there were just kids mostly. Anyway, once I pass my driving liscense test (still a long way to go. could take a good few weeks), I can become mobile and travel on my own and regularly visit the mosque and lectures, inshallah..

Again, alhamdulillah for your very very kind words. I will try and do my best to stay focused and optimistic.
