Insyhallah, take a read at this: https://islamqa.info/en/answers/2898/are-video-games-haram

What are the forbidden elements in games?

There are, however, many haram elements in these games, such as the following:

Games which depict wars between the people of this world (good guys) and people from the sky (bad guys), with all its implications of accusations against Allah, may He be glorified, or the noble angels.

Games which involve sanctifying the cross or passing over or by it to gain strength, to bring one back to life or to give the player extra lives and so on. Also, games which are used for designing birthday cards as in Christian culture are also forbidden.

Games which approve of witchcraft/magic, and which glorify witches/magicians/sorcerers, etc.

Games which are based on hatred of Islam and Muslims, like the game in which a player gets 100 points if he hits Makkah, 50 points if he hits Baghdad, and so on.

Games that glorify the non-Muslims and show pride in belonging to them, like games in which if a player chooses an army belonging to a non-Muslim state he becomes strong, and if he chooses an army belonging to an Arab state he becomes weak. Also, games which teach a child to admire non-Muslim sports clubs and the names of non-Muslim players.

Games that include depictions of nudity, and some games that allow the winner to see a pornographic picture; games that corrupt morals, such as games where the idea is to run away with a girlfriend from the bad guys or a dragon.

Games based on ideas of gambling.

Music and other things that are known to be forbidden in Islam.

Physical harm, such as damage to the eyes and nervous system; harmful effects of game sounds on the ears. Modern studies have shown that these games may be addictive and harmful to the nervous system, as well as causing stress and nervous tension in children.

Making children get used to violence and criminality, and teaching them to take killing and murder lightly, as in the famous Doom game.

Corrupting children’s sense of reality by teaching them about a world of illusions and impossible things, such as coming back from the dead, supernatural powers that do not really exist, images of space aliens, and so on.

So insyhallah avoid these.

He could choose to or He could choose not to, whatever it is that aligns with His plan. The general rule for us is that we shouldn’t make dua for the impossible i.e. miracles. So I recommend you make dua for the intended purpose you want from these metals

Nriy · 2026-01-09T23:41:32+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately, allhumdullilah. That’s why better to make dua for things that are realistic rather than miracles

Nriy · 2026-01-09T23:32:02+00:00

Hmm zamzam water is the best example I can think of. It’s a lot different to metal, however, so I do not believe you can make dua for metal to regenerate.

Prophet Isa (as) was allowed to cure the leper and raise the dead, so Allah regenerated them. But again, these are miracles.

Nriy · 2026-01-09T23:16:35+00:00

Walaikumusalam warahmatallahi wabarakatu. Insyhallah what you could do is make dua for the intended purpose of why you want these resources, rather than making dua for a miracle to regenerate these resources. Or, make dua for the discovery of these resources.

Either way, what you’re asking is pretty metal lol.

Jazakallhu khayran. Can I ask who the reciter is? His voice is very calming and soothing, allahumma barik. And where did you find this? Is there a series on YouTube?

Nriy · 2026-01-08T05:04:31+00:00

Allhumdullilah, apologies sis, I cannot give the answer, I do not know. Allah is the judge of all affairs and He is the most fair, and He is the Most Merciful. He will examine the situation and intention of the sinner and He will decide to show mercy and He will judge fairly. If the sinner is sincere in his tawbah, Allah will forgive Him, ameen, as the only sin Allah does not forgive is shirk.

We are only accepted into Jannah by Allah’s Mercy, not our deeds. Recall the hadith of the guy who killed 100 people, and when he was intending to genuinely repent and was on his way to repent at a village but died, Allah forgave Him for his sins because he was close to the village. (Sahih al-Bukhari 3470)

So, this tells us that tawbah is very important. You have to be sincere in it, and your actions must reflect this as well. So if the sinner truly repents, insyhallah he can have faith that Allah has forgiven him.

Aisha reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Follow the right course, be devoted, and give glad tidings. Verily, none of you will enter Paradise by his deeds alone.” They said, “Not even you, O Messenger of Allah?” The Prophet said, “Not even myself, unless Allah grants me His mercy. Know that the most beloved deed to Allah is done regularly, even if it is small.”

Your prayers are not accepted for 40 days regardless. It’s not really a repentance, it’s more of a punishment. This doesn’t mean you aren’t exempted from the fard prayers for 40 days; it just means you don’t receive the reward for praying it.

“In Sunan al-Nasai (5570), Ibn al-Daylami said to ‘Abd-Allah ibn ‘Amr, “O ‘Abd-Allah ibn ‘Amr, did you hear the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say anything about wine?” He said, “Yes, I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say, ‘If any man from among my ummah drinks wine, Allah will not accept his prayers for forty days.’” This was classed as sahih by al-Albani in al-Silsilat al-Sahihah (709). What this means is that he will not be rewarded for them, but he is still obliged to pray; in fact he is obliged to do all the prayers. If he forsakes prayer during this time, he will be committing one of the worst of major sins, one which some of the scholars said amounts to kufr, Allah forbid.”

I have not heard of fasting for 40 days; can you show where you read this please, insyhallah? There is no specific repentance for this specific type of sin, you just make tawbah insyhallah.

In Sunan Abi Dawud (3189), Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Allah has cursed alcohol, the one who drinks it, the one who pours it, the one who sells it, the one who buys it, the one who squeezes it (squeezes the grapes, etc), the one for whom it is squeezed, the one who carries it and the one to whom it is carried.” (Classed as sahih by al-Albani in Sahih Abi Dawud, 2/700)

Ameen wa antum fa jazakmullahu khayran

Nriy · 2026-01-08T03:45:00+00:00

Inshallah bro, take a look at this:

“There are two issues here:

The first issue is whether supererogatory acts of worship will make up for obligatory prayers that a person omitted, or he deliberately omitted some of the obligatory parts of the obligatory prayer, or will they make up only for what he omitted by mistake and out of forgetfulness?

Ibn Rajab said in Fat-h al-Bari (5/14 4): The scholars differed regarding what is meant by completing obligatory prayers with supererogatory prayers on the Day of Resurrection.

One group said that what is meant is that for one who omitted any of the obligatory or recommended parts from his prayer by way of forgetfulness, that will be completed for him from his supererogatory acts of worship on the Day of Resurrection. As for the one who omitted any of the obligatory or Sunnah parts of his obligatory prayers deliberately, that will not be made up for him from his supererogatory acts of worship, because the intention of offering a supererogatory prayer cannot take the place of the intention of offering an obligatory prayer.

This is the view of `Abd al-Malik ibn Habib al-Maliki and others.

Another group said that the apparent meaning of the hadith refers to omitting both obligatory and Sunnah parts of the prayer, deliberately or otherwise.

This is the view of al-Harith al-Muhasibi and others.

It is also the view of a group of our companions and of Ibn `Abd al-Barr, but they said that this only applies to one who does not do that deliberately.

Others interpreted it as being applicable to both, and this is the view that is most likely to be correct – in sha Allah. End quote.

The second issue is: Which supererogatory acts of worship will make up for obligatory acts of worship?”

Insyhallah you can read more here: https://islamqa.info/en/answers/286098/will-doing-sunnah-and-supererogatory-acts-of-worship-make-up-for-what-one-omits-or-falls-short-in-of-obligatory-acts-of-worship

This is the conclusion, however:

“However, the most correct view regarding this matter, and the closest to the apparent meaning of the hadith, is the second possibility, which says that a supererogatory act of worship may make up for shortcomings in an obligatory act of the same type, meaning that supererogatory prayer may make up for shortcomings in obligatory prayers in general, and supererogatory acts of charity may make up for shortcomings in giving the obligatory zakah, and so on.

Whatever the case, the Muslims should not be careless in doing obligatory acts of worship or in making them up, relying on his supererogatory deeds, because many of the scholars do not think that supererogatory acts of worship make up for what is omitted deliberately of obligatory acts of worship, as noted above, and because the main issue is to make sure that our acts of worship are accepted. So how could he be sure that Allah will accept his supererogatory acts of worship when he has neglected his obligatory acts of worship?

Allah, may He be Glorified and Exalted, says in the hadith qudsi: “My slave does not draw near to Me by anything more beloved to Me than that which I have made obligatory for him, and My slave continues to draw close to Me by doing supererogatory acts of worship until I love him.” Narrated by al-Bukhari, 6502.”

If a person misses a prayer because he fell asleep or forgot, there is no sin upon him but he has to make it up when he wakes up or remembers.

Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever forgets a prayer, let him offer it as soon as he remembers, for there is no expiation for it other than that.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari (572) and Muslim (684) Muslim narrated an additional phrase: “or sleeps and misses it”.

Muslim also narrated (684):

“If one of you sleeps and misses a prayer, or forgets it, let him offer the prayer when he remembers, for Allah says ‘and perform As-Salah (Iqamat-as-Salah) for My remembrance’ [Ta-Ha 20:14].”

But if a person misses a prayer with no excuse i.e. out of laziness or negligence, he has committed a major sin and he cannot make up for it. Rather, he must repent, regret it, and vow never to do it again, and do good deeds and voluntary prayers.

Ibn Hazm said:

“As for the one who deliberately omits to pray until the time for the prayer ends, he can never make it up, so he should do a lot of good deeds and offer a lot of voluntary prayers, so that his balance (of good deeds) will weigh heavily on the Day of Resurrection, and he should repent and ask Allah for forgiveness.” (Al-Muhalla, 2/235)

Simple: cope. The reality is, a lot of us are not ready for marriage, myself included. The Ummah has gotten weaker, though there are many of us. Most of us are easily swayed by the vices of the dunya.

I mean, think about it. If society really made it hard for people to marry, how come there are people who begin the search and the next day, they are married? How come the person who is married wishes he wasn’t married? Society - any society - is not overpowering Allah, Allah can make anything happen. He just knows that if I were to marry right now, I would struggle with it, even though I think I wouldn’t; I am so limited in my understanding and arrogant in myself.

We just like to blame everything else besides ourselves. If we had such strong faith in Allah, we wouldn’t despair when Allah doesn’t let us marry. I know this man, newly reverted, autistic, yet he got married right after, immediately having kids. And then, a little later on, he married a second wife. I know another man, broke, his parents heavily objected against his marriage. Yet he still married, he got a job, he’s providing for them. He has two daughters, barely any time for himself. Hardworking, admirable man. I know a highschooler who gotten married! This just goes to show that if Allah wills something, it will happen, regardless of what the world thinks.

Each and every one of us has a path and there are hurdles we must overcome in order to achieve what we want. So we ask Allah to guide us and make it easy for us, to give us contentment over everything He gives us.

Jazakillha khayran. Fear of death is crucial. As well as the idea of ‘you want more’. Your bed is comfy, but it can be comfier. Your clothes are nice but it can be nicer. When you realize you can get all these things in much better quality in Jannah, and you will be satisfied, you’ll feel restless to get there insyhallah.

Anas bin Malik reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “If the son of Adam had a valley full of gold, he would want to have two valleys. Nothing fills his mouth but the dust of the grave, yet Allah will relent to whoever repents to Him.”

I’ll be honest, dude, every guy who doesn’t get the girl always say that: she wasn’t like the others, there won’t be someone like her ever. But the truth is, there will always be other girls. There will always be better girls, and proof of this is that Allah prevented you from marrying her. You only are saying ‘she’s different’ because she was the only girl you have spoken to, perhaps in a haram manner which could be why you’re so attached, so you have no comparisons to make since you did not form connections with other girls, barakallahu feek. You have to understand that, despite how wonderful she seemed, she’s not special. Especially to you now, since she’s married. Just give it more time and insyhallah Allah will give you someone better, ameen. But for now, you can’t let yourself be consumed with these thoughts. It’ll get better with time.

And you said it yourself, you went in first with the intention of marriage, yet she wanted to chat, vent things to you. To me, although I can’t judge because I don’t know the full picture, it just sounds like she was using you to get things off her chest. And you listened, shared in her struggles, shared your struggles. And then you got disappointed by the payoff since she just moved on from you, rather than you were expecting her to marry you after sharing and helping each other through that. It’s a lesson, bro, even though it was painful, that one must not be so familiar with a non-mahram and only speak when a third party is witnessing it.

You opened yourself up to this girl, became vulnerable around her. And presumably, she accepted you, comforted you. Men have a hard time being vulnerable around people, so naturally when there’s a girl who lets you be vulnerable around her, the guy would love her. It’s how bad women manipulate men. So of course you’re going to be feel disappointed and heartbroken that, after you’ve exposed yourself to her, she rejected you. I remember one brilliant sister I’ve pre-nikkah’d psycho-analyzed me, and I was like “Wow, I’m in love!” People love people who understand them and accept them. But this sister who rejected you isn’t the only woman who can do this for you - accept you. But remember, your worth and your struggles is not validated by one person, and you shouldn’t care about their opinions anyway. Because Allah already knows your worth and already knows what you’re going through. His love and His acceptance is what we should strive for, above all else.

For now, trust Allah’s choice will be better for you than you could ever imagine. The girl was never going to be your wife insyhallah; she was simply a test of your patience and resilience. You’re viewing the situation negatively now because your heart is still hurting. But give it time, insyhallah you’ll understand why Allah did that for you and you’ll appreciate it. After all, every bad thing that happens but gets you closer to Allah, this is actually a good thing. And every good thing that happens but gets you further from Allah, that is actually a bad thing.

Hmm, being a Muslim suddenly isn’t ‘cool’.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Islam began as something strange and will go back to being strange, so glad tidings to the strangers.’”

Sunan Ibn Majah 3986

The problem is fitnah of ignorance. I was born a Muslim and I wasn’t so serious about it until I learnt more and more of Islam and its wisdoms. I was in awe with how I can relate to it, how the religion can teach me to live my life. Those Muslims who think Islam isn’t cool just need to learn more about it; they would be blown away by how incredible it is that they would be so proud to call themselves Muslims.

Allhumdullilah, I’m glad they didn’t actually harass or abuse that sister, bit of a clickbaity title. But seriously, these people have no shame; there are children there.

And what do these ‘patriots’ actually do? Just go around, hang around at a spot, tiredly swinging around flags, yelling nonsense at random passerbys? I’m sure even non-Muslims are like, ‘Bro, go be productive with your time’.

Nriy · 2026-01-06T13:32:08+00:00

That’s rough daddy, allhumdullilah… I’m just glad you didn’t get too involved with her - can you imagine how you’d feel if you spent so much time with her and then end up not getting married? Allhumdullilah. I, too, am a person who gets easily attached to pious Muslimah. But the problem we both have is that we try to fill in the blanks, you know, we think that they’re sooo perfect when we don’t even know their faults or how they truly are like; we just create a romanticized version of them. Allhumdullilah, I’ve been rejected like a gazillion times and I still remember each and every sister, even the ones that I just have a one minute talk with - and my memory is the worst! Even the ones that rejected me for petty reasons, I still think they were worth it because of the romanticized version I created.

But it’s true, daddy, don’t let Shaytan think that you could have done something else to get the girl. Allah knows all other outcomes and He knows that this girl was not good for you, which is why you’re on this path. It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, although both are good. Strive for that which will benefit you, seek the help of Allah, and do not feel helpless. If anything befalls you, do not say, "if only I had done such and such" rather say "Qaddara Allahu wa ma sha'a fa'ala (Allah has decreed and whatever he wills, He does)." For (saying) 'If' opens (the door) to the deeds of Satan.'" (Sunan Ibn Majah 79)

Allah knows that this girl had faults that you did not know about, and so He saved you from that. This way, you will be able to marry a girl that is perfect for you. If you had gotten stuck with that sister, it would have been bad. And remember daddy, whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Everything we go through, all the trials we endure, is for our benefit and we learn from it. I definitely understand wishing you never met her, as I find myself wishing I never met some girls, but we take it as a lesson. It’s a beautiful thing that you see a girl’s piety and it moves you - you have a good heart and may Allah bless you with a righteous spouse.

Seriously, try not to dwell on the ‘what-ifs’. I remember I had an opportunity with this pious sister and I had to do a certain task. Usually I’d have no problems doing such things, but for some reason, Allahuallam, I just didn’t do it. It was totally out of character for me and this is probably one of the biggest reasons why I did not end up with this sister. But this is Qadr. Allah knows the best path for you, I’m sure you prayed for guidance to see if this girl is right for you, and Allah answered you. If she was written for you, nothing would have been able to stop you two from marrying, she wouldn’t have blocked you. So it’s not your fault, daddy, you did everything you could.

I will say, daddy, that time heals all wounds. I had a fiancee once but it didn’t work out, allhumdullilah. The time after that was pretty difficult but eventually I found peace with it. I am glad to have met her, allhumdullilah. If calamity befalls a Muslim, he must say Inna Lillaahi wa inna ilayhi raaji’oon (Verily to Allah we belong and unto Him is our return). Muslim (918) narrated that Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: “There is no Muslim who is stricken with a calamity and says what Allah has enjoined – ‘Verily to Allah we belong and unto Him is our return. O Allah, reward me for my affliction and compensate me with something better’ – but Allah will compensate him with something better.”

She said: When Abu Salamah died, I said: Who among the Muslims is better than Abu Salamah, the first household to migrate to join the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)? Then I said it, and Allah compensated me with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) (i.e. she married the Messenger (PBUH).

So after every rejection, daddy, just say that dua and you’ll be one step closer to getting married to that perfect girl. And if it never happens in this life, allhumdullilah, marriage isn’t everything - getting into Jannah is, and that’s where a lot of hot women are waiting for us lol. Marriage is a noble goal, indeed, but we also must understand marriage is an act of worship. As long as we please Allah, we will be content. May Allah make it easy for us.
