Sometimes I think people here mix up Islamic guidance with general halal tips

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. If I say something wrong or you disagree, please tell me kindly and explain why. I'm just trying to help - finding fresh, non-recycled advice in these spaces is hard. I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but have you given up asking for help in places like this? I know it's ironic I'm posting about it here, but maybe this will help people who give advice. Often when someone asks for support, the replies are the same things you always see. The problem isn't that the suggestions are bad - it's that many regulars have already heard them and they don't always help. There’s a difference between Islamic advice and halal advice, in my view: - Islamic advice: reminders like doing more dhikr, offering extra nawafil, making sincere dua, increasing Qur'an recitation, turning to Allah first. - Halal advice: any permissible practical suggestion - like getting more sleep, speaking kindly to your spouse, organizing your time, seeing a therapist, changing habits - basically anything allowed that might help the person’s situation. Most posts I see seem to be asking for halal advice - concrete, practical steps that fit within what’s allowed - rather than purely spiritual reminders. Of course the best replies often combine both: give usable tips and encourage dua and tawakkul. So yeah, when you reply try to mix things up a bit. There's a decent chance the OP has already heard the usual spiritual reminders, so adding specific, permissible actions could be more useful.
