A Request for Du'a and Guidance
Assalam'alaikum, my dear brothers and sisters. I'll keep this short - I only ask for your prayers. About my situation: I'm running a small business and basically working all day. I feel like I've been through a lot for my age. Growing up my parents had a very toxic relationship and they still do, which affected me and my siblings. It sometimes feels like that legacy is still with us. I struggled in school and faced many setbacks in my career. I've had trouble with rizq and I'm still finding it hard. I don't have the finances that many people my age seem to have. I can't afford a car, travel, or buy myself nice things. Alhamdulillah I make enough to eat and survive, but I want more. I live with a close relative who is also my business partner. He's much older and constantly disrespects me - it's on another level. I've heard things said behind my back, I've been yelled at, and he never speaks to me kindly. He always looks for chances to put me down. I've been in this city for two years and I don't have any friends here. I feel very lonely and surrounded by negative energy. I don't have anyone to talk to, and I feel stuck. I honestly don't know what to do, and I lack the financial freedom to leave right now. My days start and end with stress and negativity. What I ask from Allah: Please make du'a that Allah grants me a way out of this situation and places me in a better condition. Pray that I find peace, kind and compassionate people around me, more joy, and halal financial ease. Specifically, I ask that Allah opens doors for me professionally to do work I truly enjoy - something I can pursue with passion and interest, without having to constantly seek approval from others. Jazakum Allah khair for your prayers and any advice. May Allah ease our affairs and grant us better company and halal rizq. Assalam'alaikum.
