Peace be upon you my brothers and sisters in Islam,

Let me go straight to the point.


please i need your help and guidance because i am loosing my faith day by day, i begin to see more reality in science than religion. Some times it will seems to me like i am just wasting my time over religion, i don't know whether it is Satan that is trying to confuse me, but every day i will be having unnecessary thought.




Note: i have positive and negative side of me.

Positive;

I don't skip my five daily prayers, and i always pray 3-4 out of the 5 in congregation, I hardly miss juma'at congregational prayer, i don't "fornicate" in any way, i always give out saddaqa to the needy, i neither drink nor smoke.


Negative side of me:


I don't recite the Quran often in fact since after Ramadan i rarely lay my hands on the quran, i don't usually fast except during Ramadan, clubbing is now part of me, i rarely pray subhi prayer in congregation.


But the problem is whenever i pray the immann is not there,
i hardly feel the connection between me and my God, please help my faith is just dropping on daily basis.




My dad is so westernized that he doesn't care about religion, while my mom is from a well known religious family in her home state. I think i took after my dad.










Please i need help, is just like i am fast becoming an Atheist.

Peace Be Upon You. Brother indeed you have draw a battle line between you and shaytan. And not only you but all human have draw lines with shaytan. For shaithan have promise not to sleep until we all go to hell except those who Allah help and I strongly believe you are part of those Allah has helped, hence seeking for guidance.

Now look at what satan promise He said: My Lord! Because Thou hast sent me astray, I verily shall adorn the path of error for them in the earth, and shall mislead them every one, Quran 35;39

Look at what Allah told him Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators. [Quran 15:52]

Farouk no authority saitan will have over you by the grace of God.

Farouk Allah said Satan is our enemy Indeed, [b] Satan is an enemy to you; so take him as an enemy. He only invites his party to be among the companions of the Blaze [Quran 15:39]



Not reciting Quran everyday, or going to club does not take you out of Islam. The ultimate loser is one who died as not a Muslim. Look the man you think is the most pious is also having his challenges with satan.


Concerning believing in science, do you know Quran is the only scripture in the face of the earth that tested 80% scientifically true and other neither true nor false and will also be prove right when science advance.

Why dont you watch peace tv or Zakir Naikon youtube. Any question you have on science just type it in youtube and add zakir naik, some1 has asked it before you. Atheist come with all sort of question and where prove wrong by zakir.

Or why dont you ask me about the science that you are having problem, I said it before my door is open to you 24/7.

The abdelkabir you mentioned do you know his own history before? I wont mentioned it here but he is not a religious person just may be you are even better than him until he strive and Allah guide him and now he is very religious person. Hence you are even posing question to him.


On how to rebuild your connection with Allah please also be listening to mufti menk, just his few minute videos will soften your heart. If you dont have time, u dont need to download one hour plus minute video, just watch the 5 to 10 mins of their videos, they are everywhere on youtube. From then nobody will tell you to even watch the complete ones.
But for the mean time Demmzy15 and abdelkabir will guide you on what to do.


What is your question on science?


May Allah guide you, me and all of us. Ameen.

Why are you on this post??

For anyone to post here they must affirm that yhey are muslim (which you obviously are not).

Why dont you like hanging around with your ilk... Why indulge in matters that are none of your concern?

Praise be to Allaah.
My brother, have great hope in Allah, and do not let the Shaytan cause you to despair of the vast mercy of Allah which He has guaranteed for His believing slaves. What you are telling yourself about this being a sign that you will die following something other than that which Allah wants is only insinuating whispers (waswaas) from the Shaytan and his deviant ideas by means of which he wants to tempt the slaves of Allah and lead them away from their religion. So he comes to a righteous slave and whispers to him that his good deeds are of no avail, or that he is doing them not for the sake of Allah but to show off to people, so that they will think he is good. All of these are the usual ways with which the Shaytan tries to trick the slaves of Allah, especially those who show signs of being righteous – of whom I think that you are one, although I do not praise anyone before Allah – to hinder their efforts. We seek refuge with Allah from him.

You need to increase your hope and trust in Allah Who forgives all sins, and who accepts the slave who seeks His protection and refuge, for He is the Most Merciful, the Oft-Forgiving and the Most Loving.

You should increase your good deeds, such as reading Qur’an, giving charity, remembering Allah (dhikr), upholding the ties of kinship, etc. The weakness which you feel also happens to others, for it is something natural. How many people were examples followed by others and had a great deal of drive and ambition, then they lost their drive and ambition for a long time, then it came back to them by the grace of Allah. Remember the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): “Everybody has his time of energy, and every time of energy is followed by a time of lethargy. But if a person tries to follow a moderate path, then I have hope for him, but if he becomes one who is pointed out (in the street), then do not think anything of him.”

(Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2453; classed as hasan (sound) by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi, 1995).

What is meant by “Everybody has his time of energy” is eagerness for a thing, energy and the desire to do good.

What is meant by “every time of energy is followed by a time of lethargy” is tiredness, weakness and lack of movement.

“But if a person tries to follow a moderate path” means that the one who has energy does his deeds in moderation and avoids going to extremes when he is feeling energetic and avoids being negligent when he is feeling lethargic.

“Then I have hope for him” means, I have hope that he will be successful, for he can continue following a middle course, and the most beloved deeds to Allaah are those which are continuous.

“but if he becomes one who is pointed out (in the street)” means, if he strives hard and goes to extremes in doing good deeds so that he will become famous for his worship and asceticism, and he becomes famous and people point him out to one another,

“then do not think anything of him” means, do not think that he is one of the righteous, because he is showing off. He did not say, “do not have hope for him,” as an indication that he has already fallen, and he will not be able to make up for what he has missed out on.

[From Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi]

Think about this hadeeth, and relate it to your own situation and the situation of others: you will see a clear similarity. This hadeeth clearly states that man goes through a stage of incomparable eagerness and great focus and ambition, then suddenly he becomes weak and loses that focus and eagerness and ambition. When he reaches this stage, he must strive even harder to do obligatory duties and avoid haraam (impermissible) things. If he does that, then there is the hope that he will succeed and progress, but if he falls into haraam things and stops doing obligatory things, he will be lost and doomed.

So you must turn to Allah a great deal, seek His forgiveness and ask Him to make you steadfast until death. I also advise you to keep away from haraam things. May Allah forgive your sins and make things easier for you. Let me conclude with this verse ""Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah, then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account (Ali-Imran - Qur'an chapter 3:1).

terrezo2002:
Yes I do. Do you also believe man returns to the dust?

Jacksonville:


He was sent to the lost sheep of israel to die for the world . His time to redeem the world had not yet come while he was on earth. The time came for the gospel to be preached to all nations after his death and ressurection by the power of the holy spirit.

Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Jesus was sent to the lost sheep of israel, while we are sent by Jesus to the gentiles(the unbelievers)

mark16:15
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creation.

Dindondin:
Thats not a proper answer. brb to offer help

That story was adapted from earlier accounts before it
Is the Bible and Koran historically accurate?
The Genesis part of Bible lists 10 generations from Adam, its first man, to Noah, who escaped a deluge, and states of these 10 generations to cover thousands of years. It would be really naive to believe that these ten generations actually lived for that many years. So, the ‘mathematical’ statements of the Bible such as [“Shem was born to Noah when Noah was 500 years old”, “Adam died at an age of 930 years”] or such as the one that says that there were 480 years between the beginning of the Exodus and the start of construction of Solomon's temple are completely erroneous and can be ignored right at the outset.
From the deciphered cuneiform tablets available from the extensive clay tablets library of Ashur Banipal and as also dug up from around Eridu (modern-day Abu Shahrein, Iraq), the oldest of Sumerian cities, we now know the ancient Sumerian texts such as the Eridu Genesis, the Epic of Gilgamesh and the list of Sumerian kings. By going through these texts that precede the Biblical texts by thousands of years, any half-intelligent man can tell that the Genesis of Bible is nothing but a rehash of these Sumerian accounts. So, Adam of Bible seems to be fashioned after Alulim, the first Mesopotamian king (at Eridu) who descended from the heavens (the mountains), just as Noah seems be fashioned after Ziusudra/Utnapishtim, during whose time a deluge was caused by the waters of Euphrates River. Even from after Noah, up to Abraham, Bible gives 10 generations that span hundreds of years. So, the list from Adam to Noah in the Genesis is nothing but only a later forgery to lend some antiquity to the Bible and is a copy of an early Sumerian lineage (Alulim to Utnapishtim). It is simply prefixed to a possibly-real genealogy from Shem up to Abraham.

including you! Because you are here too!

terrezo2002:

You left the truth to choose your own believe. You didn't believe the Bible, but believed in some other texts.
People who think they are smart always end in shame.
The Bible is so clear and simple. It is not hidden to you. It is translated into many languages, yet you left it to read books you don't know the source. Continue

See this mumu i am trying to explain were the original stories of adam,noah were stolen from , stolen from original myths and stories predating the koran and bible by over 1000 years most of what is written in the bible and koran are plaigarised from other stories, believing myths and fairy tale stories that dont exist and never existed

terrezo2002:

Maybe you helped in the stealing of it. Use your brain correctly. The Bible is the oldest book. It's words were copied from nowhere. Don't say what you don't know. Don't help in spreading fallacies. Anybody can just form stories.

Some books in the bible contains pagan origins, Enuma Elish, Gilgamesh flood stories, etc
