I'm trying to build a new habit while taking the bus, and dhikr of the moment is "astaghfirullah al-Azeem"✨️🌺

"To Allah belong the east and the west, so wherever you turn you are facing ˹towards˺ Allah.1 Surely Allah is All-Encompassing,2 All-Knowing." Al Baqarah 2:115

Assalam Alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh!! Im new here and I'll try not to yap but um WHY IS HAVING A DEGREE A BIG STANDARD?!?! i want to pursue my dream which is seeking knowledge, learning about the Deen of Allah, it's my passion and it's the only thing i want to pursue as a career as well.. But then i see people pushing forth the idea that just seeking religious knowledge isn't good enough. I've been so stressed out bc of this, I don't wanna go to uni, it's not my dream, i dont want it. Why should i pursue something for other people? Even if i do end up going to uni, it wouldn't be bc i want to, it's going to make me miserable. I'm seeking knowledge and i want to do that, it's something i wanna work hard for. It's embarrassing but i needed to let this out into the universe 😔

Alhamdulillah, Allah has eased my pain from a vulnerable situation and tomorrow I have my exam. I have prepared myself mentally to give my best and work hard. I don't know how tomorrow will turn out, but I have complete trust in the Almighty.💙🤲

Sometimes, when I miss a prayer because of my sadness frustration.. I become afraid and wonder, Will Allah ever forgive me? I am a sinful servant. I commit sins, ask for forgiveness, and then find myself falling into sin again. But whenever I share my feelings here, I am not judged. Instead, I am reminded that Allah never abandons anyone who sincerely turns back to Him. Allah is the Most Merciful. Shaytan is trying to lead me astray, but I must keep my trust in Allah and remain steadfast. O Allah, accept my repentance, strengthen my faith, and grant me the ability to remain firm on the path of Iman. Ameen. And thanks to @Nisa Noor @Ismael A. @Lucas Reed 🤍🌻
