Why won't Allah listening to my prayers?
i'm trying to become a better person & i cry almost every night but it just seems like Allah refuses to answer my prayers ;( every time i pray, i cry SO much.. what am i doing wrong? i'm human and i make mistakes but now i regret them! i just want Allah to answer this prayer and i will be the happiest woman alive! i don't why Allah, out of all people, chose me ;( i really don't like it! please help me.. what can i do to get Allah to listen to me, understand me, and help me? also, don't sit here and tell me Allah doesn't exist because no matter what you say, it won't change my mind. I believe in Him! and i know he is the one & only God.. I'm not saying everyone else is wrong but this is just me & what i believe!
Why Allah doesn't answer prayers?
hi, first of all, I am very sorry for the way that you feel , I know what it feels like, I am Muslim too, & may times I feels the same but , it is totally wrong, second of all, I have seen a lot of Muslim people which have very good life & Allah ANSWER their prays, they have good life , successful Carrie , happy marriage , good family with Righteous childs.... so it is not true that Allah doest answer Muslim , & akso there is only one god for every religious & he love everyone , he love every single man & woman on this planet & he will listen to them every second & he will help them in their life because he love them & he Create all of us with his love. Last but not least, once I feel the same as you because I felt alone & no matter how much I prayed , my life does not get better & I didn't even have simple halal things in my life, then I blame God & even didn’t pray any more ,but after while & thanks to Allah, he help me to find my way & I realize that how much he love me , I start to pray again & apologize to him , I find out , I am responsible for many of things which I did not have in my life & many dreams which does not come true, god(Allah) wants to help me , even he show me a way , but I was blinded & I was not thankful to him & I did not appreciate what he done in life time, I feel so sorry for those days….. any way I suggest you to start praying more than before & talk to Allah , ask him that he show you the way & read Quran , read about Allah & his characteristic in Quran(you will understand how much Allah will listen to his people & answer their request & you will understand how much he love you & every single person on this planet), go to mosque & talk to clergy man & remember we are human & we don’t know what is best for us , but god(Allah) knows everything & he knows us better than us & even if our halal dreams & goals do not come true , maybe it is not right time to happen & even maybe , he have better plan for you which you aren’t aware of that… just trust him & don’t suffer of your life & be thankful & most importantly don’t compare yourself with anyone even with your Muslim friends( I have done this mistake before!) . The fact that they have everything & you even don’t have halal things in your life doesn’t mean that Allah doesn’t love you or care about you…….. I hope this will help you, & I pray for you to feel better & find the right way to successful life, god bless, good luck.
In Islam, why do Muslims only pray 5 times a day?
Elliot, To tell you honestly, I know that God protects me when I am driving to not get in a wreck, etc... I pay about direction when I drive places. Since 9/11; I realized that I wasn't listening to Gods direction. And I don't want to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. So God directs me to take a different rout at times or not go any where at all. As far as sleeping goes, I sleep every night since the 1yr breakdown that I didn't sleep for that year (late1990-1991). When God filled me with the anointing, the Spirit of Truth; I slept then. That was the biggest healing event. I have been sleeping mostly every night since. I do have dreams lately. I also have visions. And I did have a nightmare of terror shortly after that Al Zaquari terrorist was killed. It was only for a few moments. But I stood on my bed in my dream & prayed to Jesus! Then I woke up. I asked Jesus if he wanted me to have this nightmare?. He said he did (pause) And if I am glad terrorist go to hell?
