Q: I am really very frustrated with everything. It looks like I have nothing to do with life. First I was not obedient to Allah but I prayed namaaz. Then from the past two years I started to go to Dars and attending lectures on Islam and I got so near to Allah. I told each and every problem to Allah and I felt so happy with that. It was just like Allah is in front of me, listening to me, understanding me. Sometimes I just cry and I feel like Allah is listening to my cry and I don’t have to say a word. I am so alone from the past two years. I left every sin that I did but there is no sukoon in my life from the past few months. I am going far from Allah and I don’t know what is the reason because I left every sin. Now I am again getting into some sort of them because fear surrounds me everywhere. I never made Allah Happy neither human being. I do a work with good intentions, for helping others, but that thing goes wrong and people start thinking that I am not a good person. Now I am just barehanded. Nothing is with me neither Allah, nor my family, nor anyone else. I have lost my way. I just want to die and meet Allah. Bas, I need nothing more. Zindagi ka maqsad khatam ho chuka hai. Kindly help me. I have no friend to tell my problems. I can’t trust human beings.
A: There is no need to feel that you have nobody. Allah Ta’ala is with you. Be happy with His decree and He will be pleased with you.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Q: But what about the fact that I have no one with whom I can share my problems. I dont trust human beings. I feel very alone sometimes.
A: Self sympathy is not a solution. Be positive, turn to Allah and Insha-Allah you will come around with greater determination, happiness, and direction.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
