Struggling to Grasp Why Someone Learns About Islam Yet Turns Away

Assalamu alaikum, I really need some help wrapping my head around this. For six years I’ve been making dua, praying tahajjud, istikhara, and seeking forgiveness, but I can't understand why this is happening. I know we have free will as humans, but since Allah guides whoever He wants, I thought He could have shown him the truth of Islam so he’d feel close to it. Instead, learning about the deen has only pushed him further away.

I feel you, sis. Happened with my cousin. You did your part, now leave it to Allah. Maybe this is a test for you.

Ya Allah, reading this hurts. Guidance isn't in our hands. You made dua for six years, that's beautiful. Don't blame yourself.

This is so heavy. I went through something similar. Took me ages to accept that guidance is only from Allah. Hugs from afar.

Ukhti, sometimes the heart is sealed. Keep making dua but don't lose yourself in the process. Allah knows best.

Sis, you gave your all. Sometimes people choose dunya over deen. It's not on you. Keep your iman strong.
