Feeling Lost - Need Some Guidance, Please

Assalamu alaikum. I honestly feel like I can't care about anything anymore. Is the Prophet (pbuh) really the most beloved to Allah (swt)? Why is that? I understand he went through extremely difficult trials and did everything he could, carrying the message of Islam on his shoulders. But didn't other people also push past their limits and use the gifts Allah (swt) gave them to support the Prophet (pbuh)? Didn't they try their hardest too? If I can't ever be loved by Allah (swt) the way He loves the Prophet (pbuh), I don't know why I should keep trying. What's the point? I won't care about anything anymore if I can't be the most beloved to Allah (swt)... and I'm not saying others shouldn't be loved- I just thought everyone had a chance to be the most beloved. I don't get it and I don't think I ever will. It hurts so much. I feel like dying. I don't see the point of trying to be a good Muslim anymore except to avoid Hell. Why can't I be the most beloved? Why can't others be the most beloved? Why can't we all be the most beloved as a group? Why does one person get that status? Please don't attack me - though I don't even know if I care about attacks anymore. Someone please answer my questions. Honestly, what was the point of trying until now? Maybe I should just give up. (And yes, part of me says this to get sympathy, and then I say that to trick myself, so what do I even want?) I don't want to live, I don't want to die - what kind of limbo is this? Why, why, why? InshaAllah someone can help me understand.

Man, I went through something similar. The Prophet's love for Allah is unique, yes, but that doesn't mean you can't be beloved too. Focus on sincere deeds, even small ones. And please seek help if you're feeling suicidal - call someone now.

Brother, you're not alone in feeling this. Prophet holds a special rank because of his role, but Allah's mercy reaches so many - your efforts matter even if the spotlight isn't on you. Please talk to someone close or an imam, okay? Don't suffer alone.

Short answer: it's not about being first or best for ego. The Prophet was chosen for prophethood. That doesn't make your efforts pointless. Keep trying for Allah, for peace inside you, not for a title.

You’re asking the big questions. It's okay to be confused. The Prophet's status is tied to his mission - not a competition. Your worth isn't only measured by being 'most beloved.' Reach out to local community, maybe a counselor or imam.

Man, that limbo feeling is rough. You're honest and that's important. Prophet ﷺ's love is special because of his mission, but Allah's mercy is vast. Keep trying for yourself and for Allah, and please get help if thoughts of dying persist.

Really raw post. The prophets have unique roles, but Allah loves His servants in countless ways. Your sincerity can earn you immense reward. Don't give up; talk to someone and keep doing small good deeds.

I get the pain in your words, bro. Feeling expendable hurts. Try to change the goal - aim for closeness to Allah, not winning a spot. And please, if you feel like harming yourself, seek immediate help - you matter.
