Just remember that Allah tests the believers in various ways and he purifies them through trials and that after even the hardest of trials you are a better person than before because of the dedication to Allah and submitting to his mercy, remember the persecution of the Sahaba and where they ended up in the end.
but what are your thoughts on Nur jamaat? the teachings of said nursi? here is a video of him from one of the gulf states: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmAAgr3MMEg although Islamqa gave a fatwa on him warning muslims to leave his Risale i Nur to students of higher knowledge due to its theological and general errors here: https://islamqa.info/en/121124 But they are widely regarded as being an authentic Islamic movement in Turkey where my parents are from, and even as having revived Islam during and after the wretched era of Kemalism, as Said Nursi (and this may be a deviant belief) even implied in the "fifth ray" in his book " the rays" that ataturk was the sufyan, or islamic dajjal, and that Lenin (or stalin? im not quite sure.....it had to have been communism because in the same chapter he mentioned how libertarianism led to socialism and socialism and socialism led to communism and communism led to anarchism and many other great evils) was the great Dajjal who would lead the unbelievers and the whole world astray, and cause great fitnah to the whole world, and both dajjals, or only the sufyan would have 4 periods of despotism according to the hadeeth "his first day will be a year (in his first term everyh year he will acomplish what could not be accomplished except in 400 years), his secon a month (40 years), his third a week, (10), his 4th a day (struggling to hold on to rule )......in other words, he believes the dajjal has already come. but that the right eye being blind and the left eye being swollen is symbolic of the right eye being blind to the hereafter and the left eye being adoring of materialism (in other words, what im trying to ask is , is this jamaat deviant).......what about gulen jamaat?
said nursi also believed that the word "kaafir" being written on dajjal's forehead would be a symbol of the sufyan ataturk forcing muslims to wear non islamic headgear and him wearing it himself.
