#AskUs Questioner: AOA,i need your advice...i am very depressed and dishearted right now...i got rejection from several companies and my research paper got rejected...also one university rejected my admission....I am not able to concentrate on study. but above all the most terrible thing that is happeing is that my faith has started to shaken(May Allah forgive me)...i am not able to concentrate on prayers as well...The result is more depression..I mean my GPA is above 3 and my parents spent soo much on my education.....any advice on how to increase my concentration on prayers and the develish thoughts on atheism should get controlled???. what is the solution??? JazakAllah khair. Answer: Walekum us salam wr wb Ur asking me this question and showing concern is a proof that faith is in ur heart and insha Allah u will not let it go from ur heart no matter how much shaytan tries to tease u. Because only a rich man shows concern that he might be robbed. A poor man who has nothing to be robbed, will never show concern. Hope u understand. Trials and tests are a part of life and they keep coming every now and then. U shud understand this. If every person starts reacting in this manner, then 100% of the world will be atheist. Imagine what is happening in syria. Families losing their father, mother, brother, sister, husband, wife, son, daughter. Women getting raped infront of their familys eyes. Imagine what is happening in afghanistan and palestine. People getting snatched of their homes and property. Imagine what happened with aafiya siddiqi. All these people should be atheist by now. Leave current situation, think about the sahaba of prophets. How they were tried. Allah said about them: Or think you that you will enter Paradise without such (trials) as came to those who passed away before you? They were afflicted with severe poverty and ailments and were so shaken that even the Messenger and those who believed along with him said, When (will come) the Help of Allah? Yes! Certainly, the Help of Allah is near! (2:214) Compare urself with all the above. What has Allah tested u with? Ur father got killed? Ur family got killed? Or someone got raped? Or you got kicked out and snatched of your home? Or you have leprosy, aids, tuberculosis, cancer? Have faith in Allah brother. Do istaghfar much. Prophet pbuh said whoever does istaghfar much, Allah will make a way out for him from every difficulty. Keep doing wird of Astaghfirullaha wa atuubu ilayhi. Also keep offering farz prayer. Do not leave them. Just pray however u can. Struggle karke. Also keep doing zikr of La haula wala quwwata illa billah. Prophet pbuh advised to do it to fight sorrow. As for rizq, then dont worry. Allah has written it for u and it shall come when it is time. Do not worry. Allah does not deny even a kafir the reward of hard work in dunya. So how can He deny a muslim? Infact thank Allah much. He has given you so much to thank for. I.A things will be better. And lastly, ponder over this ayah much. And among mankind is he who worships Allah as it were, upon the very edge; if good befalls him, he is content therewith; but if a trial befalls him, he turns back on his face. He loses both this world and the Hereafter. That is the evident loss. (22:11)
