In reply to Zakariyaa.

Asalaam Alaikum

What you said, is like that of the man who made du’a for 20 years, also what you ask from Allah (swt) is not always the blessing he gives you. Also sincerity, and patience are unbelievebly important when making du’as, Your have to believe that they will get answered for them to happen.

Not soo religious ppl get alot of pleasures and success at times, ie, the best jobs. Those things are not always blessings, their tests, as to how that person handles those things. Usually ppl fail and become less humble, Don’t think Allah (swt) is punishing you, there is a reason and a test behind everything in life, so DON’T DON’T like the scholar said in the lecture give up on du’a, its one of your strongest channels to Allah (swt) along with salat, which is number 1.

Giving up on Allah (swt) and his mercy is harem in itself.

@ Zakariyya
I went through the same thing…..sometimes we expect things to happen. We pray, serve God, follow the commandments, attend masjid/church daily expecting good things to happen to us. When something bad happens its like a piano dropping on you crushing you. We don’t expect the bad because we are too busy focusing on that ‘good’ thing to happen.

Why does good things happen to bad people? why is good not rewarded with good and bad rewarded with punishment? why does a muslim who messes about get better things then one who doesnt?. i dont deny the existence of Allah, Allah is here then why are my prayers never answered. i spent 7/8 years of my life learning the quran becoming hafiz studying the deen then why am i not happy?
