For Sisters Wrestling with Inner Doubts, Listen Up: When You Think Allah Doesn't Love You, What Do You Do?

AOA everyone, it's Duha here. We all know having insecurities is pretty common, but mine feel super intense. I end up questioning myself over every tiny thing, and I keep getting this heavy feeling that everyone around me dislikes me and doesn't really want me around. The main reason is, I had some really negative friendships a while back, and that left a deep impact. Even now, more than two years later, I still think about it, and it's where all these doubts, trust problems, insecurities, hurt, and constant worry come from. And then there's this-I'm someone who notices everything. I pick up on mood changes, tone shifts, and even small differences in how people act (yeah, I'm your typical overthinker 🙃). For a while, I've been pushing all this aside. But lately... I've been having these heavy thoughts. I keep feeling like everyone hates me, and now, this idea that my own Creator hates me. That Allah isn't listening because I miss prayers. Because I don't read the Quran enough. Because I'm not a good enough Muslim. Because I sometimes don't obey my parents. I know it's wrong and irrational and not true, and it's from Shaytaan. But I can't shake it. I'm only human, and I'm nowhere near perfect. I wanted to share this because I've seen so many Muslims helping each other out. I pray that Allah sends someone my way, since help from Him is the best help. Insha'Allah, I might also connect more with my Muslim sisters and brothers ❤️‍🩹 AOA and thanks for listening, because this was a real heart spill 🥹

I relate so much, especially about noticing every little thing. It's exhausting. But Allah knows your struggle and He is Al-Wadud, The Most Loving. Never forget that.

Your honesty is beautiful. Shaytaan loves to attack when we're down. Say 'Audhubillah' and seek refuge. You're loved more than you know.

I could have written this myself. The guilt over missed prayers is real. But we're works in progress. He wouldn't have brought you this far to abandon you.

Been there. Remember, Allah's mercy is greater than any sin. The fact you're even worried shows your iman is alive. Take it one prayer at a time sis. 💕
