Misconception of dua, wake to the reality without depressing yourself! VERY IMPORTANT

​

‏اَلسَلامُ عَلَيْكُم وَرَحْمَةُ اَللهِ وَبَرَكاتُهُ‎

Everyday I read atleast 3-4 posts saying, "i made dua during tahajjut, did this and that, cried all night but why isn't my dua being answered, so now I'm losing hope" and almost 90% of those duas are for a guy or a girl.

What did you think? Did you expect whatever you ask is going to happen exactly or immediately?

If you are to get whatever you ask for, then this should be jannah. That's where all your wishes come true, not in this life. But often people that are blind, sorry to say especially women (I'm not offending just talking after viewing all the posts), most have lost touch with reality, where they expect everything to happen exactly they want like a wishing well or magical elf granting wishes.

Let me tell u one thing, no matter even if you cried tears of blood, certain things won't be answered in the exact way you want it to be for millions of reasons that only allah know why, it won't happen, trust me ik. I have made simple duas that's so easy to happen for idk how many times, but i never got what i wanted, again I've made duas which seemed impossible and سبحان الله they got accepted, i can't even remember the amount of duas that got answered الحمد لله.

----------‐----------------------------------------------

Allah has guaranteed "Ask and he shall reply," but he never said he'll reply exactly for what we want. He will grant you your wish, or he will replace it with something better. He might save you from something harmful, or he might save it for the judgement day.

Does this mean you should not make dua? No. You have to make dua, at least once per day. Ask dua, but don't get too attached to what you ask for because that's what blinds you.

Keep hope in your dua like this. "Whatever allah gives and decides it's what's best for me." Ask your dua, do your good deeds and pray tahajjut for allah's sake not for the sake of making dua to get married to someone, because when your intention becomes that you lose hope and taste in your ibadah.

----------‐----------------------------------------------

When you make a dua, try your best to achieve it and do all the physical tasks that are necessary to make it come true. Try your level best while making dua, but if you find blockages from achieving it, then change your dua to "Ya allah if this thing is not good for me help me see it and guide me to what's good for me" and make your other duas.

Recite this dua

رَبَّنَا آتِنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ رَحْمَةً وَهَيِّئْ لَنَا مِنْ أَمْرِنَا رَشَدًا

Rabbana atina min ladunka rahmatan wahayyi lana min amrinarashada

Meaning: Our Lord, grant us from Yourself mercy and prepare for us from our affair right guidance.

----------‐----------------------------------------------

Remember! this is not jannah for all your wishes to come true, and don't follow these quotes that says "Allah would not have guided you to make this dua if he doesn't want it to happen for you", no hadiths or quran ayah says that. That quote is wrong, IMO

Our Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) made 3 duas, one of them was "his ummah not to be destroyed by fighting among themselves", he also made dua for his uncle abu talib's hidayah and prophet nuh (a) made dua for his son. Those weren't granted the way they wanted. So that quote i mentioned earlier doesn't make sense.

You want more proof, fine. Some people get the urge to make to dua die immediately, and it's 100% clear in islam. we should not make such duas, so it's very clear that it's from shaitaan.

I hope you understand this.

Allah granted me this knowledge through experience. It's islamically and logically sensible. May allah grant me hidayah and beneficial knowledge

If i am wrong or made a mistake, please correct me.

Read the below post on my personal experience of what i did to see my duas come true

Marrying outside our culture

‏اَلسَلامُ عَلَيْكُم وَرَحْمَةُ اَللهِ وَبَرَكاتُهُ‎

Is anyone here married to a person who's not lankan or do you guys know someone who married like that?

Could you share the challenges you/they faced and how did you meet your spouse?

Nature cures a troubled mind and here is the proof (Read description)

So this place is closer to kandy, and it's known as delthotha. It has similar vibes to nuwera eliya but is less cold and more beautiful. The view cannot be described, i couldn't post more videos because of doxxing

The video shows me holding a paintball gun and next to a building (where we stayed), that place is called "Wind Valley". They have nice games and activities such as paintball, ATV ride, zipline, rifle shooting, etc. I couldn't upload more videos of us doing the games due to privacy reasons.

At night, we light up a huge bonfire (end of the video, sorry for the blur), had a nice bbq, and drank some tea in that chill environment. I promise you that's an experience you will not forget

It's a good place for a small trip with your friends (8 of us went) i will recommend you go with your bikes for the best feeling, as for family i would recommend at least 8 people should go with at least 3-4 men accompanied (important).

The place has been upgraded more now. The video is from 2024.
