Big thanks to everyone in this community for keeping me sane (also making me overthink, no doubt). Moved to Canada in 2019 for post secondary education at 18, 3 years study permit, 3 years and 4 months PGWP. Left Canada September 2025 due to PGWP expiry, moved back home, stated working in same NOC and started learning French immediately and now I am at B2. I guess the language will help me long term!

Prayers for everyone out there waiting for their PR! Everyone who deserves it should have it coming soon!

Salaams everyone,

I had made a post on here a couple of months ago about my father and his abusive habits. Some people told me to be patient, keep up with prayer and not to lose hope in Allah (swt) and his Ahlulbayt. I have done so, and have done so for a long time too, I have kept up with my ziyarat Ashura and have tried to pray on time almost every prayer.

Unfortunately the situation is worse than it was. My father is even more abusive now, more towards my mom. They have been married 25 years and his abuse started in the first year of marriage, throwing things at her face, yelling, abusing with bad words and taunting. It’s been 25 years and the abuse is worse now. He has been out of work for 2 years and he has no interest in working again - he is a pretty religious person, praying on time and doing extra ibadat too, but lately he has been tiktok-obsessed and has gotten into music, to the point where he has been asking me (25F), about some artists. I have left listening to music a long time ago, but the fact that he is exposing it to me again, im only getting angry at him. He wakes up and uses tiktok up until dhuhr, sleeps again after dhuhr, wakes up mid evening and tiktok again, maghrib, then tiktok again. He only talks to us when we are on the table for lunch/dinner, and doesn’t respond if we talk to him when he’s using tiktok. Then he complains that we don’t talk to him (obviously, the man has terrorized us for years and we have no love left for him).

Long story short, he is getting worse by the day and talking to him doesn’t help, I’ve tried and I’ve been told by him not to “give him my crap”. I am studying for some pretty serious exams right now and my progress has been delayed for a long time due to family stress. I want to get my mom out of this house but we are lacking support. We are in dire need of prayers and duas from everyone who has a single minute to please pray to Allah for us. Even one minute of your time to ask Allah to help us escape this situation is something I will be extremely grateful for.

There are a lot more things he does to us, the physical beating - towards his wife and daughter - it is beyond limits and unacceptable, but without support, we are unable to do anything or go anywhere. I know this is a test from Allah and he does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear - but I genuinely cannot bear the abuse anymore. The words he uses when talking to us, the utter disrespect, the beating over absolutely nothing - leaving bruises, slamming our faces onto walls and doors, I can’t imagine a father would do that to his family but here we are.

This time is very vulnerable for us and we have nowhere to go. Societal shame is big where I live, and my mom wants to avoid all external involvement - atleast for now - the priority is leaving the house. We have some family we have spoken to for help, we are now only praying they decide to help us. So to this community, I ask all of you from on the bottom of my heart, please take a few minutes to pray for the safety of me and my mom and to soften the hearts of the family we have spoken to, to support and help us along this way.

Tawakkul is big, but Allah definitely hasn’t told us to endure abusive situations in the name of patience. This is getting out of control, the pain on our bodies is even worse. Please everyone, please pray for us.

Ps. Our country’s legal system is unfair, calling legal authorities will only be worse. We cannot trust them, and if nothing ends up happening, the consequences of what’ll happen to us at home will be even worse. I don’t want my mom and I to die this young.
