You know, whenever i talk to my father, he does not believe me that i have been learning about islam and he still thinks i am stupid because i cant learn and stuff. I really get annoyed and i tried to tell him things from the qur'an and he is like yea yea yea.
when will my father able to be aware of me learning about islam?
When he sees you are steadfast in namaz, fasting and reading Qur'an. When he sees you are leading by example and you have proved its for real. He will become proud of you for it just have patience and Allah will reward you brother
"O ye who belive! Endure, outdo all others in endurance, be ready, and observe your duty to Allah, in order that you may succeed"
and even worse. i m deaf. lol. he still thinks i m retarded. haha.
lol, u dont pray infront of him until you are teaching him how to do it inshaAllah. let us know how it progresses. dont worry about him thinking your retarded when u get to Ramadan he will probably think your totally bonkers lol

The best advice I can give you, my brother, is to make Du'a to Allah subhaanahu wa ta'aala about it. Although simple, I think this solution is too often neglected. Instead, we seek more complicated solutions to our problems when Allah subhaanahu wa ta'aala says clearly in the Qur'an:
وَقَالَ رَبُّكُمُ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ And your Lord says: "Call on Me; I will answer your Prayer..."
~ (Surah Ghafir:60)
"I spent thirty years learning manners, and I spent twenty years learning knowledge."
mashallah. hm, u guys r givin me a bump in confidence, but i dont know why hes still ignoring me. hes more into my other young bro who is way way worse than me like, clubbing, drinking etc. and looks like he picks the hearing one as he judges the deaf to be inferior to hearing. I dont think he has known about equality. hm. they seem to be blaming over my stupidity on just being "deaf".. arrrrghh.. *chill*
Praying with more people is more good deeds then praying alone. If you as a son feel embarrassed how do you think the imams felt leading prayer for the first time in their life? You should stay patient and pray to Allah that your Fathers eyes open and see your heart and intention. What matters is that Allah is seeing and watching your actions/intentions and what your heart contains. If you pray only to show your father that will not be accepted in the eyes of Allah,pray only for Allah and only care what Allah thinks,you should only fear him no one/anything else. The Shytaan will tempt you to ditach you from your family and Allah but thats a hardship everyone goes through at some point in their lives.

hmmm. good point. but, i v been tellin him to pray and hes like, "i m too old and i v prayed since 7 years old" and i m like what are you on about?.....
Salam you should prove him wrong- Allah created you, you should prayer infront of ur dad... u shouldnt hide ur feeling. Ur dad will come around soon, take time, bro! InshaAllah!
So remember Me; I will remember you. And be grateful to me and do not deny Me.
We have a senior Admin here called Woodrow he is mashAllah a proper muslim and is older than your Father,yet he still denies to pray because of his age? You should keep encouraging him and pray that insh'Allah he will redeem his guided path.
Alhumdulilah praise Allah for that brother. Ask her to try to convince your father too,maybe you could lead the prayer in your house with your mother behind you so your father gets some influence? Give him motivation. Search up stories on converts 55+ if needed I can assist you in almost anyway you want me too insh'Allah.
