I really have no more trust and what is worse then that is that the only duaa that Im able to utter during ramadan is that Allah should extract revenge on those that have deeply hurt me.

What the f*** am I supposed to do about these feelings

I really cannot take it as I can only hate myself & my life.

I feel like Allah has abandoned me as nothing I ever do is good enough.

Asalaamu alaikum.

My brother no matter how we feel about wgat someone has done towards us we must be forgiving and move on and find friends who are good for us in this world and the next. Those of us who are forgiving towards others then Allah is forgiving towards us.

It is true that there are very few "true" friends we will find in our lifetime. But also we live and we learn. Most of us hace gad friends who are only with us for their own reasons and agendas. But once we learn about who are true friends abd who are not then we must stick with those who are true friends. We must never wish bad upon anyone but make dua for them abd ask of Allah to give us true good pious friends.

I would advise that you pour your heart out to Allah especially during these blessed nights abd ask of Allah to forgive you and those whom you wished bad upon abd ask Allah to guide you and them bitterness will only eat away at you. In order to move on we must forgive for it is better for us.

I would also advise you stick to the Masjid as you will find true good friends wgo like you want to be closer to Allah. By connecting with the Masjid we are connecting to Allah and also to those who are fearful of Allah and want to be closer to him.

So my brother grieve not for Allah could have seized us the amount of times we wronged him and done bad and sin that angers abd displeases him but he forgives us again and again. So he wants that we also forgive others.

Greetings and peace be with you Jasonsk;

Im here seeking advice as I have truly lost all trust in people. Everyone I know is a backstabber, they only remember you when they want something from you.

I listened to Glen tell his story, he had been signed up to play football with Leighton Orient, alongside David Beckham. He had an exciting life ahead of him, but he was stabbed in the back shortly after, he has now been paralysed from the waist down for the last 27 years. They caught the man who did this, he served four years in prison, he was then able to walk out of prison on his own two feet, and justice had been served.

By this time, Glen had learned to drive a disabled taxi, he learned where his assailant lived, and then stalked him with the intention of running him over. Glen said at that point he came to understand that true justice could not happen. Justice is not that two people should be crippled, rather, it is that neither of them should be crippled. He knew this could never happen, he came to understand that he had to let go of his hatred. If not, he would become worse than his assailant, because his actions would be premeditated.

He said he had to live with two diseases, being crippled, and the greater disease was the hate burning away inside him. Forgiveness and letting go of the hatred was a gradual process, his wheelchair has been a daily reminder of the past injustice.

I really have no more trust and what is worse then that is that the only duaa that Im able to utter during ramadan is that Allah should extract revenge on those that have deeply hurt me.

After we heard his story in Manchester Cathedral, we were asked to say a blessing and we were to keep in mind all the people that had hurt us, and those whom we should forgive.

Now may the peace of the Lord be with you,
May the Lord bless you
May the Lord keep you
And may God's face shine upon you always
And give you peace.

You will know when you are starting to heal, that is when you can pray a blessing for your enemies.

In the spirit of praying to a just and merciful God.

Jasonsk, are these backstabbers practicing Muslims, praying daily and fasting during Ramadan? I am curious because I would assume that people who practice a religion are more trustworthy than others, but maybe I am wrong. One thing I am certain of from personal experience is that virtually all people who don't practice any religion are backstabbers?
