Please make dua for our safety, please
Assalamu Alaikum. Please make dua for me and my family. I’m an American teen stuck in Egypt with my father and brother. I was pressured to come and my father’s behaviour has only gotten worse. I’m scared for our safety. Please pray that Allah grants us a way to safety or that He prevents him from being able to hurt us anymore. After a year of abuse and neglect before, the only thing that stopped him then was a car accident that left him physically unable to harm us. I’m a teen girl and I can’t defend myself if he suddenly attacks when I’m off guard. I’ve had to sleep with something in my room because I’m afraid he might try to sexually assault me again. Please, please pray for protection and an end to this. I’ve tried many routes: I reached out to the embassy but I’m not sure they could help even if services were fully running. I went to the police but they didn’t act and won’t remove me from the house even when I show proof. I contacted child services here, but they didn’t take me seriously after my father lied; even with evidence they just asked if I’d tried listening to him. My only hope is friends in America convincing my mother to bring me home, or for something to happen that makes my father unable to harm us. I also want to learn what Allah says about people who abuse others and what rights Islam gives to victims. I’ve been fed lies that made me doubt myself and almost made me leave. I just need hope, guidance, and your prayers. Jazakum Allahu khairan.
