How long do hardships last? I’ve been struggling with my studies for 4 years, constantly making dua for Allah’s help

As-salamu alaykum. Honestly, everything feels like it’s falling apart. I’ve been having such a tough time with my studies for the past 4 years now. I’m giving it my absolute all, working as hard as I can, Wallahi. But it’s just led me to feeling so much self-hatred and disappointment-it’s really demoralizing. No matter how much effort I put in, things keep going wrong, and it’s like nothing comes easily to me. It’s just obstacle after obstacle 😞😞😞 I keep wishing Allah would bless me with intelligence, because maybe that’s what’s missing. I do have dreams and things I really want to pursue, and it would break my heart if all of this ends in failure 💔💔 How many years of making dua does it take for Allah to change your situation, to fix these heavy struggles that are weighing me down, or to grant me some ease, contentment, even a bit of success? Please, if you see this, say a sincere prayer for me. The angels will pray for you in return.

Sis, I feel you so much. Struggled with uni for 5 years, crying in sujood every night. Then one day it just clicked. Keep going, Allah's timing is perfect. You're in my duas.

Maybe this struggle is protecting you from something worse. I know it's tough, but keep making dua. It took me 6 years to finish my degree, but now I see the blessings. Stay strong.

4 years is long, but maybe Allah is teaching you patience. My mom always says hardships are a sign He loves us. Don't lose hope, okay? Sending love and duas.

Oh honey, your post made me tear up. Please don't hate yourself. You're doing your best, and that's enough for Allah. I'll make special dua for you tonight 💕

Wallahi, I've been there. It's so hard when you work so much and still fail. But remember, success isn't just grades. Allah sees your effort. I'll pray for you.
