No Friends

[Alone11]

Salaam bros and sis,

I don't think I have a single friend in the world and its probably because I live in this Jahannami country called America where everyone hates me for some reason. In school no one talks to me or even acknowledges my presence. They speak amongst each other but I'm always ignored and plus I think I'm the only Muslim in my class, surrounded by kaafirs.

he (or she) who has no freinds, has Allah swt and has Ummah forum! :love:

we love you :D

go to your local mosque and meet people there Inshallah :)

Assalam alaykum :)

Not long ago i had similar feelings to yours but i made dua to Allah swt which were answered and i met some lovely sisters. I think it really is important to have sister/brothers in your life because it motivates you. I really suggest you go to your local masgid or try and find some events or gatherings with sisters/brothers - i dont know which you are! :p Don't feel shy or whatever, the first time i meet a sister its like ive know her for years, its like an instant connection :) But yeah please don't let it get to you, and remember that Allah is always there for you.

ofcorse ur not alone!...u have all that a person neds Allah :Swt:

remember Allah tests those who he loves most.. so dont eva be sadened :)

[salam786]

your not alone! Like said ^ above Allah swt is with, and anyway look at it in a good way that your not mixing in with the kaafir, may Allah swt reward you with plenty of muslims friends to make up for the loss you feel, if not now surely in the future you may inshallah be compensated with many friends so don't lose hope and being on your own isn't a bad thing either so don't dwell on things

[Alone11]

Jazak'Allah for your duas and posts :D

Well I think I'm also to blame for my current situation, I really don't want to befriend the people that go to my school and that are in my class because of all the nonsense they do and speak of (you know how these people are, especially around 17-18 yrs old). But I'll be graduating this year and going to college next year where they're will hopefully be more Muslims around, Insha'Allah.

Alhamdulillah I did get a chance to go to Jum'ah today and felt MUCH better. Just stepping inside and being in the presence of other Muslim bros relieved me, Subhan'Allah.

:salams: Register on Ummah.com to make TONS of friends :D, don't worry about those losers.

[the path to]

you are not surrounded by kaffirs but by other human beings

this is our problem..we think every none muslim is our enemy..they are not
many of them are searching for the truth,many are fed up with western life and want a better way.peace..
many campaign against the wars in iraq and afghanistan and the palestinian occupation
some of them are just brainwashed into hate too..just like some muslims are brainwashed into hate aswell

prophet s.a.w. managed to affect people by repeling evil with good..the most patient and well mannered man ever

we must try to show the NONE MUSLIMS that we muslims are there friends and we have a way of life which brings harmony in the family community and society

avoid political debates and angry rhetoric towards foreign policy
make none muslim friends
as most people who will speak against what im telling you .will work for none muslims/shop from none muslims/and be friendly with none muslims in some way ,neighbours etc
this is islam
and how they will come is by our akhlaaq,character
not by returned hate but by showing them we rise above their ignorance

[path 2]

in a nutshell win there hearts

then expose the lies/hypocrisy of their government and foreign policy..without hate speech and anything that could be mistook as terrorist support


but first they must trust and bond with you..then they will take from you
unless there seriously stoic..hard hearted ,as some people are unfortunately

BEHAVE LIKE A HUMAN/MUSLIM

[Strict2TheSunna]

like the person above said, make dua, Wallahi, You you just cant understand how merciful Allah is.

Where abouts do you live in America, maybe someone from this forum also lives there and could befriend you!! :hidban:

with this attitude you are sure to make alot of friends. Just be yourself,a nd be confident. And if you have the attitude that all the ppl around you are jahannami and kafir then how are you going to make friends? It is the same everywhere, muslim countries are not better in any way.
I know it can be very hard sometimes to make friends, because ppl usually form groups early on in school or colleges but just try your best.

[PATH 2]

wonderful speech which was given 23 years ago by Shaikh Abul Hasan Ali An-Nadwi (author of qisasun nabiyeen)..... the speech was given at the opening of Dewsbury Markaz in 1982....however the message is more rellevent and important today

excerpts.....

APPLYING THE LESSONS OF SEERAH HERE AND NOW

This incident also contains abundant lessons on how Muslims should live in this country.

Their conduct should be sublime and captivating.

Whosoever should see us should accept Islam. Whosoever sits with us should be inclined towards Islam.

There should be no need to convince anyone to accept the Truth.

Therefore, in this country if you wish to live peacefully and have an opportunity to present Islam to the host community, you will need to inculcate and manifest sterling qualities, not just inside the Mosques but also outside in the streets, in the markets, in your daily activities, and at home.

A life of Taqwa will immediately attract non-Muslims towards Islam.

DANGERS OF LIVING ISOLATED AND INSULATED

As an ordinary student of Islam it is my religious responsibility to warn you.
If you do not lead an upright life, if you continue to live an insular lifestyle, and if you fail to manifest the beauty of Islam to non-Muslims, then you face some real dangers. In such a case, there is no reason for you to feel content and secure in this country


EARN YOUR PLACE IN YOUR COUNTRY

My dear brothers, you must earn your recognition in this country.

You should earn your place and leave an imprint on the host community of your value and significance.

You must show your exemplary conduct is far nobler than that of other people.

You must impart on them the lessons of humanity.

You should demonstrate such commitment and noble virtues that impress on people that there cannot be found more upright humans elsewhere besides you.

You need to establish your worth, showing what blessing and mercy you are for the country.


If however you decide to live in an enclosed environment simply content with your Prayers and Fasting, apathetic to the people and society you live in, never introducing them to the high Islamic values and your own personal qualities, then beware lest any religious or sectarian violence flares up. In such a situation, you will not find safety or protection.

I pray to Almighty Allah my prediction is totally unfounded.

But remember, you are guests here. Your Tabligh, Mosques, Madrasahs, Ibadah and religious sacrifices are all worthy of commendation.

May Almighty Allah grant you Barakah. But do not forget to earn your place in this country.

Gain proficiency of the national language and use it to effectively propagate Islam.

Prepare writers and orators to convey the message of Islam.

Although you will distance yourself from their religion, do not distance yourself from them.

Establish your credibility to the extent that if you are entrusted with onerous responsibilities, as was Prophet Yusuf (alayhis-salam), you do not shirk but embrace all challenges wholeheartedly.


YOUR PRIORITY SHOULD NOT BE WEALTH AND LUXURY

You will have to present a new pattern of life to this country.

You will not earn recognition by exerting yourselves in the workplace.

If you overwork you will looked upon disparagingly and be likened to horses and bulls.

In fact, you will be labelled as money-making machines.

However, if you can show to the people here that you are worshippers of Almighty Allah and not wealth, you do not bow before power but only before virtue, you are humans and think like humans, you are concerned not only about yourselves but also about others; and you are compassionate about your own children as well as theirs, that you are earnestly concerned about the path of destruction they have chosen for themselves, you will then earn their respect.

They will begin to respect Islam and become desirous of studying it. They will ask you for literature concerning Islamic beliefs and practices and an opportunity will arise here for you to promote Islam.

On the other hand, if you remain preoccupied in eating and working,
engaged in Prayers, remaining indifferent to what is happening in the country,
insulated within the Muslim community,
totally apathetic to what is happening outside,
which direction the country is taking -
in such a situation if there is trouble you will not be able to save yourselves
