Rekindling Iman After Unanswered Duas: A Sincere Plea for Guidance

As-salamu alaykum, I'm reaching out because I'm genuinely struggling to find my way back to a strong iman. A few years ago, I was consistent with my salah, and my faith felt unshakeable. However, after making sincere and constant duas for a specific thing, which didn't come to pass, I felt lost and my iman began to waver. Since then, I've found it challenging to pray, and even when I try, I feel a deep sense of disconnection. I've tried to get back on track, but life's challenges have pushed me further away from my faith. I often find myself questioning the point of praying when my duas seem to go unanswered, and I worry that I'm thinking thoughts that are not in line with my beliefs. Alhamdu lillah, I'm seeking advice and reassurance from those who may have gone through similar struggles. How did you manage to rebuild your iman and find the motivation to pray when it felt like a burden? Any personal experiences, advice, or words of comfort would be a blessing. Jazakum Allahu khayran for taking the time to read this and for any guidance you can offer.
