Witnessing something with a lot of potential.. make dua’a!

so basically i am studying in the library & the table next to me, 2 people sat there; 1 Muslim and the other is an atheist i believe.
The ‘athiest’ one has a lot of questions and was talking about the part where Allah is closer to us than the jugular vein and all of that. Anyways, decided to make this post so we can all collectively make duaa for this man to revert.

May Allah accept all our duaas and for us to get the good deeds too.

May Allah guide him to the path of Islam🤲🏼🤲🏼

I know I’m going to jahanam I’m having panic attacks

Please help with the fact that Allah has forsaken me. I know the ayat about Allahs mercy but I’ve exceeded Allahs boundaries. There have been other signs. I keep having panic attacks.

I’ve tried to turn back to Allah but I kept sinning and breaking my oaths and not praying. Help me please. I can’t even make it to umra

I'm scared to revert

I'm a white American girl (18) raised in a (nominally) Catholic family. I was first attracted to Islam at 11 when I started studying Arabic and learning about religion in class. I researched heavily on my own outside after, trying on a hijab at home and praying in my room when my parents were gone. I even said the Shahada, but I don't think it counts as there was no witness and I returned to my Catholic faith and even atheism to align with my family following.


This summer, I spent 2 months in a Muslim country. I made dear Muslim friends, sat with them while they prayed and memorized the Quran. I was awestruck by their devotion to community and God. When I got back, I fell in love with a Muslim boy who drew me even closer to Islam.


But I'm scared to revert. I know that I could never be with a boy like him because his family wouldn't accept me. I'm scared I will struggle to find a husband. I don't drink nor do I have a history with alcohol and drugs and I haven't committed zina. But I fear that my status as a revert will alienate me from the community and no one will want to marry me.

I'm scared to leave certain parts of my culture behind when I don't know if I will be accepted as a revert. I'm scared to wear a hijab and lose friends because I abandoned Christianity. I'm scared people will think I'm doing it for attention.

I love Catholicism and my Christian faith but I can't help but feel the truth is with Islam.

I would appreciate any advice or guidance ❤️

Revert looking to announce my Islam

Hi All,

I have recently converted to Islam, I grew up in a catholic household however never practiced the faith much myself.

Over the years I’ve learned more about Islam and after meeting a Muslim girl I wish I marry, I’ve decided to revert to Islam, of course the girl is not the only reason I made the decision, however it was the final step if you will.

I have taken my Shahadah however it was in private with no witnesses, I have of course said it many more times during my prayers.

I would like to announce my Islam and take my Shahadah in a Mosque, however I’ve never been to one so this would be my first time.

As I’ve never been to a Mosque before, I wouldn’t know what to do, who to speak to etc.

So I suppose my question is, how do I go about this, I’m sure there are rules I have to follow whilst in a Mosque (taking off shoes) etc. But also who would I speak to about doing this ?

I am hoping someone may be able to help.

My christian friend believes jesus a prophet

Salam alayekum !

Yesterday i was talking with a friend and she said something really interesting. We were having a conversation about religions (she’s christian and i’m muslim) and she was educating me about her beliefs and i was teaching her some stuff about islam too. At some point i asked her if christians believe jesus is god or son of god to which she responded that it’s complicated, some believe he’s son of god and some believe he’s god, and then she said that she doesn’t believe that jesus is either of those, she believes that jesus is a prophet.
After that she was telling me about trinity and how christians believe that god come in three forms (human, holy spirit, father) but then she said she doesn’t believe that god ever came or will ever come in a human form and she doesn’t believe he’s the « father ». Doesn’t all that technically makes her a muslim ? since all believers who followed the earlier prophets were muslim in a general sense, and she believes that there is one god and that jesus is a prophet

What are the best european and arab countries to work and live as a hijabi and as a muslim more generally ?

Im a student from france, i would like to wear hijab, but it is illegal to go to school, find internship and de facto impossible to work with it or find a place to rent, you can add the pre-holocaust vibe of the country towards muslims, and you get why i'd like to leave.

For cultural reasons, i dont see myself living and really integrating long term in a non european or arab nation. The problem being: most arabs countries are either poor, war zones or dont give a lot of rights to women. The europeans ones are either nearly mpossible to work with a hijab, or are low wages places with high emigrations rate

Do you know of any countries from these areas where muslims arent seen as savages and our women are allowed to be modest and work ?

Islam & sexuality, I'm confused.

Hello, I'm a new revert Muslim and I've got a very confusing question, so, I identify as an Asexual Aromantic, which means I do not feel any sexual desire and I really don't, it's been this way and it's not even a medical condition, I'm all well, and not traumatized in such sense, both of my parents are heterosexual as well, but Islam, I heard, denies sexual orientations, what does this mean? I don't get it, I have been this way? How do I agree that it doesn't exist?? When I've been this way myself, and I don't want to get married, even if I accept ot, I don't want to have Seks. But I'm told I'll be punished for it and now matter how good I go, I'll always have half of my Religion?

Can't ask Allah SWT for what I want

The thing is I am in a struggling state in my life, now by struggling state i mean I don't have a job gonna turn 27 soon yet to be married, etc etc. If i put it like this I have a lot to ask but when i am about to ask Allah for what i want I remember all the basic and fundamental things that i am blessed with, so out gratitude nothing comes out of my mouth or can't form a sentence about what i want. I end up saying I know whatever is happening is happening for the best just give me the strength to hold on. No matter how hard i try the desperation doesn't come in my dua thinking i have a full belly, my parents are all alive and well, i don't have any fatal disease, etc. Etc. I don't how to feel about this.

Taking what is not yours is a severe crime in Islam. What about strategically paying lower taxes?

The motivation behind my question is that, recently, we have started to get into partitioning our ancestral property. Boys have a tendency of undercutting their sisters. However, it has been mentioned that brothers who deny their sisters what is theres is 'taking a piece of fire', and that for every mound of earth he takes, 'seven earths will be put above him'.

The underlying principle here, from what I can understand is, be fair in your dealings. Don't try to deny someone what is theres.


But in that case, how does paying taxes factors into this? We all strategically structure our wealth, income etc to pay the lowest tax possible. In many cases, it's not even a crime (e.g.Tax avoidance vs Tax Evasion). But, are we denying the government their right to their fair share of our wealth? And what if the government is an un-islamic government, or a government that is actively trying to oppress islam? Does this change how we should approach taxes?

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala may not immediately punish a sin, but He immediately removes a blessing from the heart of a servant. That is the joy of worship

A servant by no means finds full joy and full enthusiasm in his acts of worship until he sincerely repents after committing a sin.As a result of committing sins, the peace of mind is lost from his heart.As a result - he cannot concentrate on Salat, cannot concentrate on reciting quran, cannot concentrate on Zikr.

Although there is no visible punishment for sin, there is no greater punishment for a believer than lifeless worship.

What are yall wishing for in jannah?

I personally want quite a few things and will use it as motivation!
1. A tray of tiramisu and no weight gain
2. A huge crunchy green grape. Like the size of a watermelon kind of big
3. Eat a tide pod (I want it to be frozen and taste like slushy)
4. Invite my Christian friends if they haven’t converted by that time
5. This might be a bit controversial or even judgmental but I really want to relive this earth just like how shifters shift to be kids of celebrities,be mermaids,be an actor and all that.
Inshallah we will all make it to jannah!

Why are most of the duas in Quran start with the word rabb instead of Allah?

I have encountered different duas in the Quran where Allah mentions himself as Rabb. My question is, while in our daily life, we use the word 'Allah' to mention Allah or to ask something from Allah, why rabb is used in those duas instead of Allah? Given that those duas are highly prescribed.

Homeless man pissed all over my good deed

I know there is virtue in helping and being kind to the homeless. There were great sahaba who were homeless part of the "Ahlus Suffa".

But my interaction today makes me feel reluctant to interact with them.


I work at a sandwich shop in a busy downtown area in the US. Tonight, as part of the "closing up shop" duties, I went outside to pick up our tables and chairs to bring them inside. I saw an elderly gentleman who appeared to be in very bad shape, visibly looking homeless. There was also a bad smell, but in the rush of trying to close up, I didn’t immediately associate the smell with him—it didn’t even cross my mind.

The old man asked me if we had any leftover sandwiches or something he could eat. I knew we didn’t have any, but I felt bad, so I told him I’d check. I had already eaten my meal, which was offered to me as part of our shift. I asked my supervisor if we had any leftover sandwiches, and he said no. I then asked if I could buy the homeless man a sandwich. I’m not very rich, so I was planning on just getting him a basic turkey sandwich, nothing fancy. But my supervisor saw that I felt bad and told me I could use his comp meal to give the man some food.

So, I went out and asked the man what type of sandwich he would like. Still, like an idiot, I didn’t pay close attention to his condition. I ended up making him an expensive steak sandwich and gave it to him. I left him to eat, then came back about 30 minutes later to get the tables and chairs. The bad smell was still there.

When I turned the light on, I saw:

1. Nasty yellow, dark pee all over the chair and the floor.
2. The sandwich was only half-eaten and scattered and trashed all over the table
3. Cigarette ash was scattered all over our table, and there were holes in it. These tables were brand new—we had just gotten them a few days ago.

I wanted to help the homeless for the sake of Allah, and it blew up in my face. I wish I had just told him we had nothing and that we were closing up shop.

Seeing black figures or a person hanging for a split second around my house.

Hello, my Muslim friends. I've been noticing unusual things in my house, which my family moved into 5 months ago. Just today, I woke up several times, and each time I woke up, I kept seeing black figures for a split second, which scared me for a moment. Just now, the black figure was really close to my face; it felt like it was staring at me, and I had to force myself to wake up. There was also a time when I walked past our office room and saw feet hanging, like a person had been hanged, but only for a split second. I've already resorted to reciting Ayat al-Kursi, Al-Fatiha, and praying before sleeping, but it still happens. I'm not taking any medications or vitamins.

I'm starting to get used to it, even though it feels really, really scary at times—like, genuinely very scary. I still try my best not to tell others, but I'm kind of worried now about the other people in my house. I know I'm not crazy because my sister told me that she's seen black figures often in the house as well.
