Seeking Allah's Guidance in a Time of Hardship
As-salamu alaykum, brothers and sisters. I'm really struggling with my nafs right now. I feel so much self-hatred and disgust towards myself. Every day, I end up crying because I feel like such a burden. My appetite is gone, and even basic self-care feels impossible. What hurts most is that I'm struggling to pray my five daily salah consistently. I keep telling myself 'insha'Allah tomorrow will be better,' but it doesn't feel true anymore. I can't keep pretending everything's okay when it's not-everything feels like it's falling apart. I've lost all motivation and am just going through the motions, feeling completely numb inside. Please, make du'a for me and share any advice from our beautiful deen that might help. Jazakum Allahu khayran.
