Struggling with Faith and Seeking Signs

Assalamu alaikum, dear brothers and sisters. Lately, I’ve been feeling shaky in my iman, and it’s weighing heavy on my heart. I think it started when I began seeing more content online-some of it from Christian speakers who challenge Islam. At first, I’d check their claims with knowledgeable Muslims, and things made sense. But as these videos kept popping up, doubts started creeping in. When I tried talking to my parents, they’d brush off my questions and just tell me to pray, which left me frustrated because I wanted real answers. I’ve been doing my best-praying all five on time, adding sunnahs, even waking for Tahajjud and making extra dua. But honestly, my life hasn’t improved much, and I couldn’t help but notice how some non-Muslims seem to get what I’ve been asking for without all the effort. I know Allah delays things for a reason, but it’s hard not to feel bitter. Worst part is, when I pray now, I feel disconnected. It’s like my heart isn’t in it anymore, and I’m just going through the motions. I read a page of Qur’an daily and say the recommended adhkar, but nothing changes inside. I keep hoping for a sign that I’m on the right path. I even asked some AI tools about the most logical religion, and they pointed to Christianity-of course, I didn’t take that as truth, but it added to my confusion. I’m reaching out to fellow Muslims: has anyone else felt this emptiness even while trying so hard? How did you find your way back? Jazakum Allahu khayran for any advice.

Allah tests those He loves. Your struggle is beautiful, akhi. Keep knocking on His door, even when it feels dry. This is the real jihad.
