Salam Alakem
I am a 17 year old sister, i was born muslim however my parents are not really religious my mother brought me and because a lot of reason she didnt teach me about islam.
She always told me she would pay for someone to teach but that never happened, i went to the Mosque on a sunday for quran classes but the teacher istafullah put off even more he was rude, he was laughing at me because i didnt know a great deal, when it comes to prayers i never went again.
Now i am trying so hard really i got to islamic website try to find information about my religion i am teaching myself how to pray, alhamdullah i started covering. I just find it hard at times i am givin up music and so going out with friends who are muslims and covered but they attend cafe and bars where men and women are mixed. I am stopping all that, at time i cry at night because i feel so weak like the devil is getting the best of me i feel so useless when i see 5 years praying and i cant even do that, i cant rely on anybody. Is like my memory is blanked, i wil never give up though i know islam is the right religion i love and fear Allah swt i just wish at times i was smarter and much better.

My Dear Sister youngsister, pray to Allah Ta'ala to help and guide and I repeat only Allah Ta'ala has the power to help you. We Muslim Brothers and Sisters can help and guide you but at the end of the day you have to ask for forgivenss and help to Allah Ta'ala.
Inshallah Ta'ala all Muslim Brothers and Sisters shall pray for you and may Allah Ta'ala help you along this test that the Almighty has put upon us.
Assalamu Alaikum

If you fail in your exams, there is always a next year.
If you lose your spouse, there can be a second marriage.
But if you die, there is no second chance. This life is only one opportunity.
Salam alaikum, thank you so much, may Allah swt bless you all. Your right i will never give up, if i always remember Allah sww, Allah swt will remember me on the day.

youngsister,
what you feel in you is Islam. When you see that 5 year old kid praying, and you unable to do so - is a reminder to you - that sight of the kid praying should increase your strength. Allah[swt] is showing you - that if that 5 year old kid can do it, then so can you. And you are making progress, and He[swt] knows it. Just keep it up - and do not lose the hope. Remember that kid.
ps: have you been peeking into my biography - cuz that story seems very similar kay:
"What can my enemies do to me? My paradise is in my heart, it goes with me wherever I go. To put me in prison is to allow me to have a private devotion to Allah. To execute me is to give me martyrdom. And to kick me out of my land is for me to journey in the path of Allah." -Sheikh ibnu Taymiyyah
i think you are brave sister, in taking that first step and helping yourself...ALLAH(swt) is there for his beleivers, inshallah, ask ALLAH(swt) to help you...
for ALLAH(swt) is the best of helpers....
wasalam
"1. Qull huwa Allahu ahad Allahu alssamad Lam yalid walam yoolad Walam yakun lahu kufuwan ahad"
Say: He is Allah the One and Only Allah, the Eternal Absolute He begetteth not nor is He begotten And there is none like unto Him.
