![]() Topic: getting religious againPosted: 30 December 2005 at 10:09am |

I wanna know what people can do if they feel they are loosing their faith, or they feel they don't give importance to religion any more. Especially if the concerned person doesn't like this state and feels annoyed. |

Asalaam Alikum, Everyone feels that way in some point of there lifes, and insha'Allah they can get out of it. Try doing dhikr, and salat. Do you think you are loosing your faith? or are you just asking this question because you want to? i don't what else to say in less you give me some more details ( you can pm me if you want) |

Auzubillahi minash shaitan ir rajeem, Bismillah ir rahman ir rahim, The following points are taken from a longer response on a similar problem, addressed by a scholar.
Al-Haakim reported in al-Mustadrak, and al-Tabaraani reported in al-Mu’jam, that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Faith wears out in the heart of any one of you just as clothes wear out, so ask Allaah to renew the faith in your hearts.” (Reported by al-Haakim in al-Mustadrak, 1/4;. Al-Haythami said in Majma’ al-Zawaa’id, 1/52, “It was reported by al-Tabaraani in al-Kabeer and its isnaad is saheeh.”) This Hadith tells us that our faith will become weak but we will have to strengthen it with various actions and different good deeds. If we try to implement the following, Insha Allah it will help us all.
May Allah give you success in strenghtening of Iman, insha allah. ameen. Maa salaama, Nausheen

Auzubillahi minash shaitan ir rajeem, Bismillah ir rahman ir rahim, Another advice taken from similar sources... 02.153 “O you who believe! Seek help in steadfastness and prayer. Lo! Allah is with the steadfast.” As for when one fears non-acceptance when they find hardness of heart and weakness in resolve, then one should make remembrance of Allah and istighfar (seeking forgiveness). It has been related in a hadith from the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) that he said, “Truly, hearts rust just as iron rusts, and their polishing is La ilaha illa Allah (‘There is no god but Allah’) and seeking forgiveness.” Thus, if a Muslim seeks to polish their heart, they should adhere to the remembrance of Allah until their heart is purified and illumined. As for loss of motivation, this is natural to the human temperament, and is the reason why the acts of good and worship are variegated—so that the lower selves of creation not get weary. Thus, if one finds weakness in one’s resolve, then move to another type of good, while being wary—when given success—not to take on too many voluntary acts of worship, lest this lead to loss of motivation and a sense of being fed up. Allah Most High enjoined upon us certain obligations which we cannot leave. After this, He encouraged us to supererogatory works from which we should take that which our selves can handle, sustain, and remain avid for the good.

Auzubillahi minash shaitan ir rajeem, Bismillah ir rahman ir rahim, Assalamualikum wa rahmatullah, Wa iyakum Knowledge1, I am glad to see you are frequenting the boards regularly. I had once promised to share something on repentance, which I have not yet been able to write. Please forgive me. Now that I have a slightly better schedule than in all these past months, insha allah I shall be posting a number of things and this is on my agenda. Maa salaama, Nausheen |

Assalm-u-Alykum, i live in USA. and the best way i think to keep our Iman stron is to read namaz regularly. i work and go to school but i pray Qizaa namaz . andi read Sura, Yaseen alot . so, since i am living in an Islamic country, i still have strong faith. KH |
