Self help Islam and Anxiety
We all experience difficulties in our life’s and as Muslims we should know that this is a test from Allah. In fact that this is something Muslims firmly believe in, that going through difficult times is inevitable.
{Do people think they will be left alone and they will not be tried? …} ( Al-`Ankbut 29:3)
And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.). Al-Baqra Verse No:155
Even the Prophet went through difficult times. For examples when his son Ibrhim passed away to the next life. The prophet felt sadness, expressed his emotions through tears and grief.
Then he wept more and said, “The eyes are shedding tears and the heart is grieved, and we will not say except what pleases our Lord, O Ibrahim! Indeed we are grieved by your separation.” Bukhari; Book 23, hadith 1228
Allah gives us reward through affliction
It’s important to remember that as Muslims Allah has not left us but rather he wants us to get closer to him however we must also seek professional help where necessary. For example when we re ill we go to see a GP to aid recovery. Just like if you are suffering from a Mental Health condition you should seek help from a Qualified professional Counsellor that is in congruence with your faith.
Allah encourages us to seek help
Anxiety is something that we cannot escape given the adversities that we may experience everyday. Anxiety is a condition that doesn’t show itself out of nowhere. It slowly gets on us without us really knowing.
Depression is a condition that brings us down and makes us feel like life is not worth it anymore. It slowly creeps its way into our system and turns us into a kind of person who isn’t enthusiastic about life anymore.
What makes matters more alarming is that both of these mental conditions are very common in every part of the world and may inflict anyone. Fortunately, they can be overcome by knowing how to cope with anxiety and depression.
I will be discussing some of the ways on how to know if you have anxiety or depression, how anxiety leads to depression in the long run and vice versa, as well as some tips on how to overcome them. Overall we’ll discuss how to cope with anxiety and depression in the comfort of your own home.
What is Anxiety and How it May Lead to Depression and Vice Versa
What exactly is anxiety?
Anxiety is often described as an unpleasant feeling that we all experience such as always being uptight, nervous, tense or irritable. It may affect how we think and behave as excessive worry may prevent us from doing things that we need and want to do. Anxiety causes us to feel worried for a long period of time even if the worry doesn’t have any basis.
But it’s normal to worry or feel anxious about some things in life. In fact, it can often be helpful. For example, worrying about how you’ll pass your exam, driving test, acing that interview, you then prepare yourself by studying and as a result of being motivated by that concern is good. How do you know if it is good or bad anxiety? Well according to research It’s been found that symptoms of anxiety are much more frequent when the condition known as generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is present. General worriers tend to spend an average of 56 minutes a day worrying, while people with GAD often spend over 300 minutes a day worrying — over five times as much.
Another thing to know about anxiety is that it goes hand in hand with depression. They are two very different conditions but are often seen in tandem with each other. If you want to know how to cope with anxiety and depression, then you need to understand how one relates to the other.
Sometimes having anxiety may lead to depression because being constantly worried will drag you down, filling you with negative thoughts that eventually lead to depression. Having depression may also lead to anxiety because depression slows productivity which eventually leads to long-term worries and anxiety. Once you know how to cope with anxiety and depression, you can relax without having to worry about one condition breeding the other.
Symptoms of Anxiety
For symptoms, there are four categories of symptoms to know whether you have anxiety or not, namely: physical, thoughts, emotions, and behavior.
- Let’s start with the physical symptoms that you may have. Some symptoms would include tension, muscular pain, dizziness, chest pain, trembling, shaking, and palpitations.
- For thoughts, you would often ask to worry about if something bad happens, you would always look at the worst case scenario, your mind is always on alert, and you often worry all the time.
- For emotional symptoms, you would often feel nervous, panicky, or stressed. You’d also feel very irritable and would have a short temper.
- Lastly, you would have behavioral symptoms. If you feel like wanting not to do things you like, often pace around, get spooked easily, talk too fast, and get angry at people too fast.
Self-Help Tips for Anxiety
Now that we know more about anxiety and its links to depression, let’s go deeper into knowing the tips on how to cope with anxiety and depression. In the next two sections, we’ll be learning effective and proven methods on how to cope with anxiety and depression.
The prevention tips are split into two kinds, the mental tips, which are tips that are focused on trying to change our state of mind and the lifestyle tips which focus on lifestyle changes that may affect our mental state.
Mental Tips
- Understanding more about anxiety
If you want to know how to cope with anxiety and depression, you have to understand them. Let’s start with anxiety.
One thing that we should understand is that anxiety is a daily part of our lives. We experience anxiety every day when we look at our unpaid bills, when we are called to the boss’ office or before we receive our report card. The anxiety that is caused by adverse situations is known as a fight or flight response that we develop in order to help fight away the danger. This is actually an evolutionary response that our ancestors used back in the days of primal survival. However, our minds have already been accustomed or used to the fight or flight response, so even if there is no need to turn on our “survival mode,” the mind still turns it on. It is because of this that we still experience anxiety even if there is no danger but just some small adversity. In a sense, anxiety is our fight or flight response which is kicked into auto-pilot.
- Control Unhelpful Thoughts
What makes anxiety a danger to our mental state is the fact that when we worry about adverse situations that can be rather unrealistic. When this happens, it’s very important to know how to control these unhelpful thoughts. For example, a person with social anxiety who is about going into a room full of people may think that no one will like him or her. This is an example of a ‘worry’ feeling that really has no basis. To control unhelpful thoughts, we must first identify it.
Below are the cues to show what an unhealthy thought is:
◻ Predicting the Future
◻ Assuming What Another Person is Thinking about You
◻ Exaggerating or Blowing Situations Out of Proportion
◻ Pressuring Yourself to Follow a Societal Standard
◻Using the Outcome of One Situation as a Generalization for the Outcome of All Other Situations
◻ Labeling Yourself
When you are thinking thoughts that fall into any of these categories, it will help if you list them down. After you do, ask the following questions:
- Does My Thought Have Any Basis?
_____________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
- What Category Does My Unhelpful Thought Fall In?
_____________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
- What Would I Tell a Friend If He or She Have This Unhealthy Thoughts?
_____________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
- What are the Advantages and Disadvantages of Harboring this Thought?

- Is There Any Way to Perceive the Situation?

- Improving your problem-solving skills
Beefing up on your problem-solving skills is one very good way to help your anxiety problems. We would generally develop anxiety whenever we have problems piled in our thoughts. When these unresolved problems just pile up and pile up, we would drown in them and not solve any of them. Just think of it like getting a credit card loan– if you don’t pay the principal amount, the interest just piles up until we drown in it. In order to fix this, we have to create a system on how we can fix our unresolved issues one by one until they’re totally wiped out.
Here is a systematic outline on how to approach problems one by one:
- Make a List of Your Problems and List them in Order of Priority
- Identify the Problem (What exactly is the problem?)
- Make a List of Possible Solutions for the Problem
- Choose the Best Solution from the List
- Create the Steps on How to Carry Out the Solution
- Carry Out the Solution and Evaluate Whether it Worked
- Choose a Different Solution if it Didn’t Work
With these steps, you can systematically solve each of your problems one by one.
- Learning how to reduce the amount of time you spend worrying
Lastly, you have to learn how to decrease your worry time. One technique to do this would be to create a “worry time”. Outside of your worry time, probably for just 20 minutes, try to take out all thoughts in your head. When you’re in your worry time, time yourself with a timer so that you can limit it. While you’re in your “worry time,” try to make up as many solutions as possible and list them down. Try to solve them again in the next worry time.
Lifestyle Tips
Those are some mental tips on how to curb your anxiety. However, for you to overcome anxiety and depression fully, there are some lifestyle changes that you need to obey, such as:
- Eat Well
Always eat a balanced meal curbing unhealthy processed foods, too much sweets, and too much carbs.
- Exercise Regularly
Regular exercise helps you emit happy hormones and create a “high” that can curb anxiety.
- Learn to Relax
Pick up some activities that can help you relax like sports, yoga, or meditation.
- Do Something You Like
One of the symptoms of anxiety is that you stop doing things that like to do. Try going back to doing what you like to do so that you can be happy.
- Avoid Alcohol and Drugs
Whatever you do, avoid drugs and alcohol because it won’t make your anxiety go away. It would make you even more destructive.
- Talk to a Loved One
Lastly, talk to a loved one. Opening up to a trusted family member or friend will help you, not only to vent out your worries but also to make you feel that there is someone there for you.

assalamu alaykum, I am suffering from negative thoughts and feelings with regards to my religion, Islam. I keep getting thoughts and feelings which sometimes overwhelm saying I don’t believe and Islam is a lie. However, when my mind is in the right state of mind I reject this notion and is clearly false as there is too much evidence to prove it is true. Then again, after this I feel confused even by the reality of this world and get panickly and have strong thoughts and feelings that I’m going to die on kufr. Also it’s like everything I say, although I feel like I’m being sincere, I’m just lieing, causing me more distress. I ask for your help as the situation has been escalating quickly.
Walikum salam, dear Read Quran with Translation you will know all the answers of your questions, and try to stuck to The basic principles of islam.
Read quran with translation.
Offer five times prayers.
Do Charity
Eat well
Do exercise
And dont wory about this world, this is temporary world. In Quran Allah says that ‘’give limited knowledge to humans’’
Try to understand limited knowledge. Dont allow shaitan to make you astray from your paith, trust on Allah inshaAllah everything will be ohky soon. JazakaAllah!
Remember me in your prayers.
Salam alaikum ramatoulahi wa barakatou. How are you?
My problem is i feel like I don’t do enough. I feel like I’m wasting my time when I do other things beside praying, reading Quran, fasting, ect… I am always praying and I feel really happy when I pray. When I end my prayed i can’t relax. I can’t breathe, or do anything. Even when I finish praying and I feel tired and should rest i feel scared . I always feel scared. Everyone sees me as being a strong confident person. Which I believe I am. But I feel scared to think high of myself or I might become arrogant. I am always doing things for people but not for myself. I am going to get married but I am scared. I did my Istikarah and gave no doubt in Allah. That is not my worries. I feel close to Allah and I am always speaking with Allah but I am worried that i need to do more or i am not living my life wise. When I make a small mistake in prayer i cry like I am broken. I know Allah is Al Gafar and Al Gafur, etc.. I do. But the only thing I care about it just to pray not not spend a second without making dikr. Even when I am sleeping. I wake up and do dikr and fall asleep like that. Even on my period. Which is the worse. I hate when my period come because feel like it causing to be to far away from my prayer. I spent the whole 7-8 stressed. And when a small bad though come to me I feel like screaming.
I can’t take it anymore. I always ask Allah to help me and forgive me for the way I am acting. I don’t have doubt i just need to get myself together and relax. But I can’t. Even when my brother say let go to the movies i am watching the movie but stop and do dikr and think maybe I will die now lie this. I am always thinking of my death. Every spend of my life but I barely lived life cause i ma only 18.
Oh Allah. Please help me. I feel like o can’t really explain how i feel and when I tell my parents, my mom say relax and my dad say it’s okay to watch movie, okay, hang out with people.
But it’s not easy for me. I am always surrounded my personal people but I always feel like I am alone in the middle of the group. Allah is the only i keep close and I am always in the fighting mode. Even the person I am supposed to marry i just can’t accept the marriage. But I will still marry because Allah said yes in my Istikarah. And I put all of my hope and trust in Allah. But I am still stressed by doubting myself. I can’t stop. My head and heart always hurt. Like right now my head hurts really badly.
Salam, i’m sorry that your are going through this and its not your fault that your experiencing these hard feelings and thoughts, i have this problem also although its not as bad as yours, my advise for you is to really calm down, these unhelpful thoughts your having are just thoughts, they are neither true or you, learn to be a little more compassionate and comforting to yourself when you see yourself scared and if it helps spend sometime in nature and doing some breathing techniques, be patient with yourself and don’t rush, anxiety really makes the mind and body rush therefore it really heats up the body and face, so cold showers or splash of cold water on face and neck should help you feel a little calmer, hope these tips will be of some help, take care and i pray that Allah gives you ease in your struggles or with whatever else you are going through, remember this too shall pass.
When you’re in menses spend more time in dhikr. All the time just make dhikr in replace of prayers. Also listen to inspirational Islamic advice . May Allah easen your stress
Assalamualaikum I am suffering from debt and his so much that I my salary will not clear it and it make me to be worried and depressed

You really really need to consider therapy.

Asalam alaikum warahmtulah wabarakatu. Dear sis. Remember we are not perfect,. I would advise u try to watch lectures of Yasmin mogahed and Nouman Ali khan. May Allah make it easy for you
Hey man Assalamualaikum I just saw this. I went through this exact same thing. Get a psychiatrist Asap, this is ocd. I suffered for months and it went to the point where I couldn’t live normally anymore and I was in bed all day, randomly shrieking whenever these thoughts would come to me. Please find help soon it will work. These thoughts will come more the more you try to get them away. Let the thoughts be there, you’ll slowly learn to stop caring about it. While I agree that movies are haram since you’re not lowering your gaze what you’re going through is extremism and our Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam strictly prohibited extremism. There’s a time for prayer and worldly duties. Engage in worldly duties, I assure you it’s not haram. Our Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam did everything and recited Qur’an, prayed and remembered Allah. Don’t try to do more than him, your body has rights over you, your mind has rights over you. Take care of your health! You’ll be cured by the grace of Allah In shaa Allah, we’re making Dua for you
Assalam alaikum! Before marriage i used to be like no worries & i used to be happy with my self…but after marriage I’m suffering alot ….my mood swings my nature all turns into worst….first i used to be more calm & have a lot of sabr & no angryness….but these days even a little word stress me alot i used to cry all over the time… I’m very far away from my parents…. Now a days I’m very much worrying about my life ….. Everything changes🥲i dono how to deal with the people’s who blames me all the time indirectly… I’m very sensitive in my nature..even a single word hurts me alot….please help me through out these…..is there any effective surah that’s help to get rid of such people’s & i don’t want to have in my life…my angryness also increasing alot….how to maintain it with sabr….
WalaikumAssalaam Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu
Yes, and it is important to maintain a balance in life. Your body has a right over you, your family has a right over you, etc. and we all have limited fuel
Please consider therapy ( you might need to try more than one to find the right person)
Also, read Surah 94 (it is a very short surah with translation as it might make you feel better in sha Allah)
I have depression anxiety and anger issues. I make dhikr on a regular basis but I’m getting negative thoughts. I act on the first thing that comes in my mind. I try to give time and control but i lack patience .it’s like torture
I feel similarly. Did you found any advice on this. Pls pls do share with me.
Evolution is not a real thing as you said it’s (anxiety) an evolutionary thing it’s there from the very beginning of the human creation. Anxiety was needed for human being from the beginning because he was not a danger-proof creature back then so that he didn’t needed to be anxious and at a certain time he developed it. That’s just nonsense. Sorry for being out of topic but it was important.
JazākAllāhu Khairan…
salam sis , you absolutely no need to worry rather you should be happy , just think if you weren’t on the right path why would you be worrying about it , this worry is pure emaan , keep living like this , because we all have a qareen shaitan attached to us and he wants us to live miserably the possible but constant practices of islam is beloved to ALLAH and if there’s no nudity in the movie then there’s no harm in watching movie,just think if we want to be happy by practicing islam and not getting it then it means our invisible enemy is casting doubt in us by whispering and hides and how he hides ! by matching his voice to our voice in head and we think that this is our voice in head but its the enemy which doesn’t let us have peace in islam and complain to Allah , remember you gonna do only those deeds which is written in taqdeer , and shaitan tells you oh the prayer is ended now what youre in the state of sin and creates a false image in our head that god is unpleased with you and will punish you try to be smart and continue praying and living a happy life and when anxiety hits you just remember that its from shaitan and wants you to complain and create a misery in your life
Brother u are doing well
Allah is with we live in duniyah. A temporary illusion so do your best allah hu akbar you are blessed. Be happy take care be safe. Islam
Dont worry. Just sit tight, only pray, read quran n exercising, say 1 year or even 90 years to die n get rewarded in afterlife.
Brother, that is a sign of true Emaan, as mentioned by the prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam. I hope it’s gone now and Allah makes it easy for you. You can search up the Hadith about evil thoughts. You’ll find more than 1 ahaadith mention that what you’re feeling is shaitaan trying to draw you away as hard as he can, because you’re doing the opposite and obeying Allah. So he’s trying harder because your iman is increasing and he doesn’t want that. Barakallahu feekum
Brother I have these deep thoughts where I feel like my deeds aren’t being accepted because my intention is that I want to heaven and not hell but my intention is not really for the sake of Allah
Wa alaikum Al-salam
Brother, check what intention is in islam.
I think that it is simpler than what I used to think.
Didn’t Allah created us in this world, that is operating in a certain way, and made us live in societies…so helping others is a thing that Allah want us to do.
That is one example, you just gotta help others with a smile, loving to help others, and thanking God that you can help others.
Working to gain money for your living and your family is doing your responsibilities, you are not neglecting these responsibilities because God did not create you to neglect them, they are part of your life and purpose. With this you are thanking God with your deeds by doing your best in terms of your responsibilities (to your self, your family, your work, etc..)
It’s just doing what God created you for, in other words, fulfilling your purpose. And your purpose includes doing things and fulfilling responsibilities, communicating with people, smiling, helping, even petting your pets and taking good care of them.
Sorry if this was long, but it really deserves pondering on.
I might be right or wrong, I am just writing what I reached with my thoughts so far.

It makes me unhappy I have no interest in doing anything at all. I’m trying so hard to get that thought out of my mind but haven’t succeeded. To make it worse I sometimes feel dizzy and weak

Assalamualikum ,
Everyone in here . I am personally suffering from anxiety from last 14 years . You cant imagine on what my body has gone through. Allhomdolilah by the grace of all mighty everything is fine.
I have recently started Talbina – (Search google for it). Trust me this is something will help you cope Anxiety and depression.
One personal tip from my experience . Mind and stomach are connected and anxiety had a diverse effect on stomach. Make sure to eat less and eat talbina 3 times a day. I cant belive i was not able to eat because of my anxiety but allhomdolilah after eating talbina i can eat the food. Bloating, belly pain, too much gas were all part of my life which is reduced to 60%.
The talbina gives rest to the heart of the patient and makes it active and relieves some of his sorrow and grief.” [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5325)]. “It (talbina) soothes the grieving heart and cleanses the ailing heart just as one of you cleans dirt off his face with water.” [Saheeh Sunan ibn Maajah (3445)].
Try this one my brothers and sisters . Eat it 3 times a cup for atleast 3 months. Add dates and honey as well inshallah you will see a difference
Jazakallah
JazaakAllah Khairan, I will try talbina.
Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu ,,
I am having death anxiety, i always think about death , and panic ,scared and can’t sleep or focus ,or do anything ,, i pray 5 times alhamdullillah , but always think like if i die now what will happen? How it will feel and all that stuff,,, what should I do?
waalaikumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,
Pokki, I am also feeling the same as you for the few weeks. I know and understand that it feels extremely terrible and scary. You want to get rid of it but can’t. Have u tried anything that helps.
Asslam O Alaikum,
ALLAH SWT and believe in ALLAH SWT is the only solution/remedy.
Do sincere Tauba, repent on your gunah no matter how small they were. Cry in front of ALLAH and ask for HIS help. Keep crying in your Duas as like you are feeling the paing you are going through. you will start improving INSHAALLAH
1. Pray 5 times a day on time.
2. After Fajar read the Quran (with translation) as much as you can in a loud voice so that you can hear your recitation.
3. memorize the morning and evening Azkar and read them after fajar and maghrib prayers. Read suran falaq and surah nas three times each after fajar and maghrib prayer, blow the air on your hands and move the hands on almost all your body wherever you can easily approach.
4. Every time you have negative thought or waswas, Just think that this from Shaitan, spit on your left side three times and say Tauz.
No one know about the future except ALLAH ALMIGHTY so shaitan whispers you negative thoughts about your future, so never believe in that. Also shaitan whispers that you have done a lot of bad deeds, Your TAUBA is worthless, so dont get trapped and do TAUBA with hope as ALLAH is the most forgiving.
Hope this will help you and others here, INSHAALLAH
Asalamualaikum everyone I have a lot of problem I am fighting with depression and anxiety I got engaged to a guy but that broke and he got married it’s being one year my parents are worried but few days back my parents decided a guy for me (May allah make us the best couple in d’uniya and jannah Ameen) but I’m getting very bad thoughts that I should not marry him or he is going to die or something like that should never happen to him may Allah give him 100 years to live Ameen Ameen he is good because who will Marry engagment broken girl and thinking allah is not there but deep down I don’t want to think because I love my allah so much I’m not able to be happy with news of marriage please help me sir
Me too. I love Allah so much that o feel like I don’t want to bother with marriage. I can to just pray my whole life and not bother with anything, but then again. Allah wants us to get married. If he wanted us to pray 24/7 we would have been created as Angels and not humans. But Allah wanted us to be human and his choose is the best. Marriage is a way to worship Allah, eating, sleeping, relaxing, talking to family, working, school everything is a way of worship Allah with the right attention.

I want relive from anxiety. Actually it start with my thoughts like I will go market I will surely face anxiety and when I go it comes to me. Kindly some one guide me I really need. Thank you
Hello I’m 16 years old and I have some moderate anxiety, I pray Alhamdulillah but sometimes I miss some prayers inshallah I will pray all 5 everyday, I’m having anxiety or this intrusive thoughts about my religion I know deep down that I’m a Muslim and believe in Islam but sometimes for example when I read something about Islam when someone is hating for example saying Islam is false, Quran is false I get so scared that I will become a non believer and won’t believe in Islam and won’t be granted Jannah,or for example when I see video about Christianity, when they see in the comments Jesus is Lord I get scared that J believe Jesus is Lord and that I’m not a Muslim and that I don’t believe in the Shahada which is every important it’s my biggest fear the thought that I don’t believe in the Shahada and that I’m not on the right path, but deep down I believe, I’m scared and don’t wanna one of the ones that are daleen
Salaam. I’m really sorry you’re going through this. It seems like you may have ocd induced anxiety where you feel the need to constantly pray and not be able to have a good time.
What you could do is look up ocd and how it could be treated. Most definitely go to your gp because this requires medical help.
One question to ask yourself is why do you feel the need to constantly pray. I can see that it’s because you think you’re going to die. However, it could be that the shaitan himself could be trying to scare you by constantly reminding you of death.
One thing to note is that simply following the 5 pillars of Islam is enough to get you into jannat. Please keep that in mind. Let yourself know that you’ve done enough
Yoga is not allowed in Islam because it is worship of sun. Please remove mentioning yoga. Jazakum Allahu khairan.
Insha’Allah I will try talbina as well. I been suffering from anxiety for years and it’s exhausting plus worrisome. Thank u for your suggestion. Jazzak’Allah khairan.
Assalamualaikum i am suffering from anxiety, i have negative thought issue … i feel tense and stress on little things… i am Nikkahfied the next year i will be married soon … i am concern about what i will do after marriage … i am suffering alot these day .. i am unmotivated feeling down every time … no one is assuming my condition

I am facing a huge issue whenever i am thinking of allah or talking to allah i feel like i am talking to shaitan nauzubillah even i am feeling like that i am asking things from shaitan which i really dont want but i am not pretty sure about the time i did it actually my imaan is in danger i feel like doing shirk..
Allah is Oft Forgiving Most Merciful.
Allah has Power over all things and it is Allah who has given us life not Satan the cursed.
Satan the Cursed will be in hell.
Satan can’t even save himself from the punishment.
Allah Hu Akbar.
And recite Qu’ran and know Who Allah is and don’t let yourself fall into such delusion…
Read Quran Paak with translation. Insha Allah your all doubts will be cleared and you will get strong Faith.
I am suffering from anxiety fir years and I am very isolated I cried so much during Salah today asked for paradise and made a dua to put my trust in Allah my living situation is been hard its now 20 years on my health is low pray for me and my sister we live together
Wa’alaykum as salaam wa Rahmat Allah brother Guled. The feelings and thoughts you are having make you feel as if you’d rather be reduced to charcoal than believe them or bring them to your lips. Alhamdillah! This a great sign of Iman. Clearly Islam is the truth and you have acknowledged this in your comment. Don’t forget that your nafs is sometimes with you and sometimes against you. You’re a solider due to your patience and consistency. So do exactly that, remain patient and constant in your Salah and do not succomb to the evil whispers of the shaytan. He disguises his whispers with your inner voice, trying to ‘hazin’ or grieve the believers. He doesn’t play by rules so whatever you do keep striving and you will be successful in sha Allah. And have hope in the mercy of Allah, he knows you don’t like these thoughts and in sha Allah will not hold you to account for them.
Assalamu alaikum. Am suffering from extreme thoughts that borders around my Iman and it really scares me. I fear from loosing my Iman and straying away from Islam. I usually gets thoughts that really distress me that l rather die than accept them. Whenever a person dies and his buried a Muslim l count them as really lucky..l fear for my Iman in the midst of this was was on my mind all the time. Any suggestion or remedy for me.
These issue gapped when some black energies attach with us. Those can be attach by soany ways and reason. How attach by you it can be confirm by checking you in detail and which requires your full name and mother …. But initially you always be in wazu, recite 70 times Ayat kursi. Give sadqa on Saturday of any black eatable , cloth or fruit.
Assalam walekum, I am going through extreme level of waswasa no matter how much i pray namaz make dua these doesn’t go.And it’s started happening since i started taking Islam seriously.Trying to take my conscience.I need a help
Please contact your gp. These are intrusive thoughts and can be a form of ocd.
One thing you need to remember is that it’s impossible to pray to shaitan. Shaytan cannot hear your thoughts. The only one that can is Allah.
When you find yourself thinking you are praying to shaitan, ask yourself this question : can shaitan read your mind or hear you pray… he cannot. Only Allah can
your worry over these intrusive thoughts proves you have a strong faith.
recite astaghfaar
Assalaamualeikom Guled,
I don’t have a solution to your problem but I just wanted you to know that you are not alone, I experience the same thoughts and feelings sometimes. Last Friday I heard a Jummah khutaba that said that part of the deception of this world is to make us doubt ourselves and doubt Islam. I guess the best thing to do is to always try and stay connected to Allah which I’d admit, I fail to do most days. May Allah make it easy for us Aameen.
This is a form of OCD, intrusive thoughts about your faith. Read about OCD and ways to treat it.
I am helpless….feeling that I am burden on everybody….I am unable to do anything…..my husband is too disturbed because of it…. neither I take care of me nor him I don’t cook everything feels burden I just lie on bed….. anxiety depression OCD issues harmonal imbalance…. medicines going on….now I am fed up of everything…signs of schizophrenia also…
Assalamu alaikum…I’m facing anxiety..I’m having all the symptoms mentioned above…I really don’t know what to do…does the things told above work?.. please help me to resolve it… JazakAllah hu khair
For real Same I wish it will be fine for both of us.
I am suffering from unrealistic thoughts which is affecting my behaviour towards my family and I feel discomfort around my family and I cannot even make eye contact with them it causes me anxiety and I get negative thoughts about Allah and I kept myself distancing from Allah because I am afraid of myself that I would harm anyone because of myself and I dont know how to deal with this I am so depressed about this situations i want prevent these negative thoughts from my mind
Guled it sounds like you could have a clinical disorder, possibly OCD. OCD stands for obsessive compulsive disorder. I have it with similar symptoms like you mentioned. Get mental help please. I promise that it will get easier eventually. I used to think that I didn’t truly believe in God and that He wished that I would die soon because He hated me, despite knowing that these thoughts are nonsense.It has taken me several years to overcome this. Learning more about God’s true nature helped me a lot.
Alaikum Salam
May Allah help you
You should know that these are not your thoughts these are the thoughts of satan and you should fight them and also try reading Quran daily after fajr prayer it will help you a lot In Sha Allah
Assalamualaikum, May I please speak to you? I have to talk about a similar concern. Please if you could help.
My wife suffers from this but the problem is that she is unwilling to admit to this and discuss this properly. For example, before every wedding on the journey down to the venue she would pick a fight with me and then throughout the wedding she wouldn’t talk to anyone and display very clearly that she is upset. It is heartbreaking where people look at me thinking it’s my fault.
How can I get my wife to be genuine and honest and to proactively do something about this? It is having a major impact on our relationship where she is masking this issue by blaming me.
Hi, I am a teenage girl and I think I am suffering anxiety because my heart beats very fast and sometimes I completely zoned out or blank whenever I interact with new people’s as what they gonna ask with me and by their questions and I also am scared of doing things if something gone wrong

Hi, know that anxiety never lasts forever. But you need do your part in fighting it, don’t let go of your connection to God no matter what your feeling force yourself to pray if you have too, and trust Allah it won’t overtake you. The feeling can get too much sometimes and I know that it may feel like any moment your going to end up committing the vile thoughts that go through your head, but at the end of the day these are just thoughts you are in control, you can change the way you think, think of all the things Allah has given you focus on the positives in life, be greatful for the blessings that Allah has bestowed upon you even on your darkest days and inshallah he will never abandon you and you will never abandon him. Cry out to him and ask for guidance just as he made a path for prophet Musa, he will pave a path for you too. Have faith it will all work out.
Asalam o alikum. It is wrong dear. Whatever start it must have an end. This is something else if we don’t know way how to end it. I do heal people alhumdulilah Allah has provided to human so many ways to solve such issues.
Assalamualaikum.
Me and my wife had deceived by all my family members like my mother, my brothers, sisters, uncle some of my relatives and also her parents, brothers.
All used me financially and physically we I was fit and rich. As today I’m unhealthy and living an unemployed life due to health issues everyone kissed my as I’m fit for nothing, and today I’m living worst life from past 3years.
I have 2 kids. Due to all this my wife also lost her health.
Every day one or the other degrade us in any other way like using bad words as we are poor, or we suffering from diseases and we will not recover any more or sometimes says that no one likes us etc…
I struggle for food today, but i don’t want to beg for help.
Every day me and my wife get lot of negative thoughts, sometimes we discuss to commit suicide. But we could not able to make it for our childrens happy life.
Please advice what to do in such situation as per Islam.
Do not kill yourself and put your hope in Allah no matter what
Assalamu alaikum sis
I just read your message I hope your well. I just thought if we were to talk as I am going through something similar
I understand you are going through a rough time. It may seem that there is no hope in life but please remember suicide is a major sin. You do not want to die on committing a major sin. I advise you to turn to Allah and beg for help. Only he can help you in this situation.
I pray that you and your family are well and will receive the help you need.
Can we start a Muslim help group for all of us who are experiencing anxiety intrusive thoughts depression etc? I recently lost my small sister and it all started there, my life has changed completely, I have been holding on to my swalah reading a lot of Quran and doing istighfar…Alhamdulillah I am getting better but the anxiety keeps creeping back especially at night. My sleep is no longer the same. I pray Allah heals and guides all of us Amiin
This will be coming soon in the App. http://www.muslimmoodfit.com
I do feel fast heart beat weakness no hunger but due to fear
Assalamualikum ,
Everyone in here . I am personally suffering from anxiety from last 14 years . You cant imagine on what my body has gone through. Allhomdolilah by the grace of all mighty everything is fine.
I have recently started Talbina – (Search google for it). Trust me this is something will help you cope Anxiety and depression.
One personal tip from my experience . Mind and stomach are connected and anxiety had a diverse effect on stomach. Make sure to eat less and eat talbina 3 times a day. I cant belive i was not able to eat because of my anxiety but allhomdolilah after eating talbina i can eat the food. Bloating, belly pain, too much gas were all part of my life which is reduced to 60%.
The talbina gives rest to the heart of the patient and makes it active and relieves some of his sorrow and grief.” [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5325)]. “It (talbina) soothes the grieving heart and cleanses the ailing heart just as one of you cleans dirt off his face with water.” [Saheeh Sunan ibn Maajah (3445)].
Try this one my brothers and sisters . Eat it 3 times a cup for atleast 3 months. Add dates and honey as well inshallah you will see a difference
Jazakallah
Hi I keep constantly thinking I’m going to pass away. That scares me the most. I think too deep into it. My anxiety’s comes from
The fear of something bad happening to me. I fear what’s going to be like in the next life. When I think like that. I then start thinking A person knows they going to pass away 40 days before hand.
I can totally relate with you, this is me for past few months, hence im awake now too.
My child is suffering from depression as some of his close friends have cheated with him n now not talking to him. My child is depressed plz suggert me any solution
Brother give him water of Masjid and recite upon it 41 times surah e Alm nashra for 21 days your son will be normal inshahAllah
Hi. Same here. Iam very much worried about my child
As salaam aleykum sister
First think that 40 days have passed and Alhamdullilah you are still alive
I have the same feeling but by constantly reading quran everyday makes me feel good
I wouldn’t say that the anxiety is gone but the episodes are much less
If Allah wills you will be cured and this is the test for which we are here
So be patient and put you wheel of life in the hand of Allah
May Allah give you healthy life
Regards
Your brother
As salaam alyekum
I feel like that too..it started mid November and I just don’t know which way to turn..I’m soo scared and I don’t know how to control myself, I like to understand more about why I feel like this because its not a nice feeling it also sometimes makes me very emotional and its hard to talk to anyone what I’m going though..
I keep thinking about a loved one passing away and it keeps me from sleeping because I have extreme panic over it. I don’t know what to do
Just pray for your loved one and seek forgiveness for him/her from Almighty Allah. That’s the best thing you can do to benefit your loved one and release your pain.
Praying to Allah Almighty is a great source of strength and relief.
Hi Fazina, I go through the same exact thing as you and I usaully would think I’m the one only thinking this way and yes that all scares of when I’m going to pass away and the 40 days thing is what I’ve learned is the last days of the world but I really try not to think of that because it could really effect you in your life.
I think of death and how harsh it would be and Allah’s forgiveness ..ithink of all the dangerous fatal sicknesses I fear tht I don’t end up taking antidepressants going on those medicine is my biggest fear for what ever reason A simple head ache makes me feel it’s something serious and y is it hpning .. I hate medicines I feel the alopathic medicine will give me serious side effects and can be fatal to my organs ..then I think about all people who already go through it and think it’s in Allah’s hands n nothing can be changed ..
I use homeopathic medicine and home remedies like chemomile tea and other herbs to control panic attacks ..
I think of this that Allah will not change the situations of the people who do not change them selves .. so I try to eat healthy and stay active but because of pcos m so worried ???? I feel my anxiety is because of me being lazy n overthink n indeed a test from alllah may Allah protect us all may Allah cure us all ammen ya rabb ..
I have the same feeling sister !! And worrying about things I can’t control
Assalamulaikum,
Brother
Try eating Talbina 3 times a day with honey and dates inshallah you will feel better
Don’t worry inshallah you will have nothing serious apart from the mind which pushes us to negative thoughts
You have no idea I am going and gone through the same. Train your mind ..training , training and training is the key and pray salah
remember whenever you feel something is not right with your body do sadqa and pray .
Eat talbina now and then .
Stop smoking slowly . dont go cold turker if you smoke
eat , exercise , pray , enjoy , and leave everything to allah
Do repentence …remember my brother this is a test .. it will pass soon .. trust , try , pray :)
Jazakallah
Hi zainab I am also going through Same thing I am so depressed about it everytime thinking about death like i ask refuge from Allah n definitely he will take us out from all this IN SHAA ALLAH
I am going through an anxiety phase as well but it is regarding work.
I am a uni graduate looking for work and i constantly feel stressed because i keep thinking about what if i fail in the job or not good at it.
How will i survive if i cant earn money for my family and me.
Is this a sign of weak iman or something?
I am going through the same situation as you right now, been suffering for months and unable to sleep. Which in turn makes the whole situation worse day by day.
Salam Alaikom Fazina,
It is surreal to read your story sub7an Allah. Im going through the same thing right now! I know what you are going through. It is very difficukt. We have to stay strong. May Allah relieve us from this anxiety.
Ameen ya Rabbul alameen
Sister, please read the hadeeth about the death of a believer. That will give you true joy and will turn the fear of death into yearning. Plus, you can read or watch about jannah and about the day of judgement for a believer. Barakallahu feekum
Don’t stress too much. Allah (swt) is the only one who knows when your time will come. Just follow the principles of Islam and focusing on what you’re focusing on is good, but don’t worry about it.
Salaams Fazina
I came across your post and am going through the exact same thing now
If you get this message can you please tell me how you are doing nw and if there was anything specific that helped you
Shukran

Hello, recently I’ve been going through all this and mostly overthinking situations and keep blaming Islam for it. Astaghfurallah…
I sometimes take actions that the back of my head keeps telling me it’s haram but I know that action have been granted to me for a reason because I’ve benefited A lot from it. It led me to become closer to Allah and read Quran and do zikr, and sometimes I think I overthink too much that the though of leaving this behaviour (leaving my only best friend of opposite sex) gives me anxiety and makes me depressed. We no nothing haram btw, we only have talked online for the past 3 years. Recently I’ve developed this anxiety and I’m trying to overcome it. Definetly will use your methods and hopefully it works. (I’ve been doing breathing exercises and saying zikr before I sleep)
Anxiety and stress and sleepless
Stress and anxiety and sleepless
I am suffering from back pain which is now almost gone but in these difficult times i suffered from anxiety attacks which make me think worse of my self in future because of this pain but i am still fighting with it reading islamic things and listening islamic scholar hopefully it will get over . Keep belief in ALLAH , pray every day and pray for relief . IA it will get better with time
Salam
I have terrible anxiety I wake up worrying go to bed worrying and live the whole day worryibg.
You see i know the truth we may have money then get fired and have debt.
We may have health and then get sick i get that.
Iam worried that I maybe considered as I lacked faith truth is I rely on Allah so much because I know Iam helpless but I cant switch off my anxious thoughts
Aoa I am 22 years old one night I suddenly feel like my hearts beat faster and I can’t breath properly and I feel like its my last night I cannot sleep at that night next day I google the symptoms of death and they are similar with the condition at that night. I consult a therapist he said that its normal in your age and the level of serotonin is low that why you have excessive thoughts of death but now it become serious because when I do something like take shower I feel like its my last shower now my mom goes on a shopping I felt like I will never see her again I don’t no why this happens why I have excessive thoughts of death in my head. I feel like its the sign of death from Allah now a days I relate everything with my death. I don’t know what to do.
Subhanallah zainab I’m 24 years old and been struggling with the same exact thoughts. I had it really bad last year when I lost 4 friends of mine who are all young age. And now it’s back again. But what worked for me the first time was a true cure. It was salah, tasbee7, and dua, and drinking zamzam water. It helps to talk to someone about it that is also struggling with it. I’ve been told by some scholars is getting married helps. I advise anyone that’s going through it to get married.
I am experiencing the same feeling. I am relating everything with death . I go to bed worrying that I don’t wake up the next morning .Could anyone help me with this ?
I am experiencing the same. I go to bed worrying that I dont wake up the next morning. I relate everything to death. My uncle who passed away recently came in dream. Was that a bad sign?
Could anyone help me with this ?
Salaams Zainub

I have been struggling with this for a few months now
As much as i try to be positive and replace my thoughts i still fail

Fiza
Subhanallah zain, I have been feeling the same way as you…I can’t sleep because I’m scared all the times.
Can you please tell me how you are trying to overcome this?

because Allah is the only hope
I suffer from health anxiety and the smallest thing makes me feel I have a terminal illness and it plays on mind and I keep prodding and poking my body for symptoms. I have had this for years but Kobe advise on this it really triggers my anxiety
İ am a 20 year old muslim girl. İ feel that no one around me is able to understand me. On the contrary, they criticise every of my action, even if i am in the right myself! Whether i speak in defence or not, i receive same criticism in return. İ do not say i am not wrong! No, maybe i am wrong mostly but yet not in all cases i am wrong. Being right in some situations hasn’t made a change either. İ only and only trust Allah(s.w.t.) for He is my only hope. Maybe, i know these are tests fom Him and i accept them with all my heart.
But, i have taken so much since that now it seems unbearable. People do not understand me. İ am not usual. Allah made me this way. İ can’t help it. When our thinkings do not coincide, i receive criticism.
Maybe, i am not able to figure out where i am wrong. İ need to know so that i may act according to the situation. May Allah guide us all.
Hi fiza this is me faryal sister em also going through same situation I am very worried can u plx help me
I Love You Dear And Everything Gon Be Alright With You By Allah Grace Just Put Ur Trust On Allah (S.W.T) He Knows The Best 4 Every Soul And In Life Ain’t Nobody Is That Perfect #LoveFrom_Nigeria 🇳🇬
I worry about my cousin, she is a non-believer of Islam Sunni. She always argued and uses David Wood to contradict my encouragement. She said there’s no signs yet….am I not a sign as instrument by Allah (Hidayat)?
Hello sister, i had a similar problem with a family member. I felt upset and distant with them cause he always contradicted anything islamic. It really angered me and made me upset that it almost really affected my relationship with him.
I realized that no matter what you say or do until the person changes what is in themsleves saying anything to them to convince them won’t work until they really want to hear it themselves.
I realized this could be a test for me and shaytaan could also be trying to make me more irritated with the person by using my anxiety and develop hate. I stopped arguing and prayed fro forgiveness and guidance cause I also suffered anxiety and it made me feel worse about myself whenever I got into arguments, cause I felt I committed a sin against him by hurting his feelings and going against Allahs ways of having good character and mannerism. Instead of proving my point I instead opted to work on my relationship with the person and work on becoming a kinder and soft hearted person. I cried my eyes out to Allah and kept praying for guidance and control of my anxiety. I pray that through my actions they can see the right way if my words do not work.
My Father Shot himself in the chest And Alhamdulillah,Allah Saved him! It was A Suicide attempt And He is A drug addict, he’s in a critical condition right now. As we know the hadith if someone commit suicide he’ll suffer it for eternity like how he killed him self. Now my question is, he didn’t die on spot but anything can happen now, if he dies now, will he still suffer for eternity or Allah Will Be Mercy Enough To Reunite Us In Jannah Again? I Know It’s Allah who Will do What He Wants, But wanna know if there’s any hadith or ruling regarding this matter. I just pray to Allah to Survive my father and give him Hedayaah .
Ameen.
Hi. i’m an 18 yr old girl. I’ve been through a lot these past few years. I made some silly decisions such as accepting an engagement marriage which then I found later on that it was not what I wanted as the relationship was not ‘good’ lets say. i broke off the engagement which broke ties in my family including between me and my parents. now I feel like I’ve rented a room in my house as my relationship with my family is not good. I’ve got strength to pray and make dua as I know allah will help me through this but I feel like i’m being tested too much. i’m also an a level student and the stress just adds on to this.
i am always feel lightheaded and anxiety i am always find a way to Allah help me in this issue but i am too much tired of this condition i have too much fare without any reason even i cant go out but i am responsible for a family and i dont want to lose them please show me a way in islamic way to help myself and to recover my illness every day is a new challenge for me but i want to be a healthy person who spend time for warship of Allah and to serve people and be kind with my family but now a days i feel that i am a useless person
I have been having anxiety and panic attacks, but recently it has gone severe. I am just thinking about death all day and this thought never leaves me even during praying ,eating etc. But since my last panic attack all i hear , read or just see any random video its all comes back to death in that also. I am really traumatized as it is affecting my daily life routine.
Lately since my grandpa passed away during the pandemic! I started having rapid panic attacks and I didn’t know the reason !! No I’m suffering from deep anxiety fear of death fear of the future and I’m too weak to help my self . Sometimes I feel good the days I try to keep my self busy ! But sometimes my body feels too quick to get up .. any help tips from my sisters will be really great ! I do not want to rely on medications as well .
Salam Fazina,
I am feeling the same and my anxiety due to this is affecting me very badly. Can you share what helped you because when i go deep in to this thought, anxiety affects my thinking, speech and sometimes blur vision and shivering
Assalamu Alaikum, i am also going through this test, although i related the issue with Mum and she gave me some best tips and advice which i will share them here.
1. she told me that she have also went through the same thing but what help her most is that she have a well grounded islamic knowledge, she easily relate the problem with what she read in one islamic book written by renowned islamic scholar, the book expatiate suratul ikhlass’s verse which state ” min sharri was waasil khannas” translated as “From the evil of the whisperer (devil who whispers evil in the hearts of men) who withdraws (from his whispering in one’s heart after one remembers Allâh)” then my mum told me that there is a devil shaydhaan called khannas, that his work is to keep whispering evil in hearts, then she told me to be reciting surat ikhlass anytime i experience such again, that Allah will only take my soul when my time click, and that if it surest that jannah is our abode inshaAllah what are we doing on the surface of earth. we should try and worship Allah till our last breath, mothers mercy is the biggest mercy on earth but it is just a tip in an ocean when compared to Allah’s mercy ,likewise all the good and bounties of duniya compared to Aljannah. May AllahSWT take our souls when he is best pleased with us and our deeds. Aameen yaa hayyu yaa qayyum.
Assamulaykum,
I been having severe anxiety for months now. Due to my work. There are certain areas at work the triggers my anxiety and I think about it for the whole day, I lose my appetite and I feel like I don’t deserve to be happy and enjoying myself. Sometimes when I do something right, and my mind says I didn’t so I think and worry about it all day. It disturbs my praying. Should I tell my manager that this is affecting me???
Really appreciate seeing this to be honest. I suffered from anxiety and depression from a young age. Growing up I came closer to Allah because of it. There is so much haram in the world and these are signs of the end, but ended up worrying about all things but knowing that Alhamdulliah Allah is our protector and protects us from all things. also when something. Goes wrong I end up panicking of all my old anxious thoughts. Allah has provided me a sign through your comments and this post so Alhamdulliah.
Rightly said, i read it that: World is heaven for non-muslims and world is hell for muslims.
This is true, because muslims faced many big problems.The big reason behind this that: we are muslim that the non-muslims cannot tolerance us.
Otherwise if we talking about the problems in our daily life.We can solved all those problems with active and positive mind.
As you explained in very long topic. keep it up.
God Bless you.
Assalamualaikum

Honestly I’ve been going through the same thing for a month now. Iam trying really hard to get rid of the fear. The fear is so intense and also panic attacks.
waalaikumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,
Pokki I hope this finds you well. I am going through the exact situation as yours. I know and understand that it feels terrible. But still at times the thoughts are so intense it’s hard to ignore. For now I am also praying and putting my entire trust into Allah. R u doing something else that works. A Wazifa or something.

I am going through a very tough time. I am getting extreme waswas about my belief and about Allah, about our beloved prophet Muhammad PBUH and about Islam. I get so scared that I am unable to sleep during night. I feel like the waswas that am getting is making me a kafir. I sometimes get so frightened that what if I have believed them. I do dikr but sometimes it won’t help. Sometimes I feel so scared that I don’t even feel like doing dikr. I feel like if I do dikr I’ll get more waswas. Am unable to sleep during nights. My waswas gets terrible during nights. When I close my eyes and try to sleep I feel like my heart would explode. Please some one suggest me something.
Salam,
I am currently about to get married, I am having an arranged marriage. I am experiencing severe anxiety, negative thoughts towards myself and get easily irritated with others, especially if they bring up the topic about the wedding.
I have struggle with anxiety for most of my life but it seems more consistent now and harder to control. I feel like I am pushing everyone away because of this and making them and myself unhappy.
I have pray to Allah about this marriage and have not received any signs not to go through with it, however my anxiety is affecting my decision making.
I feel like I am losing faith in my religion. my confidence in myself and in my faith is decreasing rapidly.

Assalamualikum
I am depressed and it’s all started with anxiety. My parents didn’t understand my feelings. They never let me study what I want to. They want me to study what they want and this is the reason I failed twice in my entrance exam for medical. And now I have no way to get out of this situation. They kept telling me ” Don’t worry whatever Allah will plan for u will happen and these are tests from him just have faith in him u will be rewarded ” Yeah I know and I have faith in Allah. But now I’m losing it and now I’m afraid about my both world. I have no one to share all these. No one is understanding the pain I’m going through. I was very good student as I achieved rank 1 among 500 in mathematics in my 10th board but they don’t let me study that. I’m very weak in biology and now I’m so depressed and I think I can do anything in my life. I feel like a failure. My parents are very caring but demotivating as well. I just want to die or to escape from this world plz help me.
Hi, I’m turning 34 this year. And it all started about 4 months ago when I lost a really close friend. She was 28 years old. The first week after her death, it was all about just being sad that I’ve lost someone close to me.
One night, I lay in bed and had the thought “she died really young. You could die anytime.” My chest tightened and I couldn’t breathe. My stomach went in knots. And I couldn’t sleep. I was constantly looking around the room thinking the malaikat maut is going to show up and take my life.
I’ve always been living the carefree YOLO life. I am a Muslim but I wasn’t practising. And eversince that incident, I asked my best friend to teach me how to perform the 5 daily prayers. Alhamdulillah I try not to miss any now. But my mind and heart is still not at peace. I can’t read Arabic so I have trouble with the Quran but I try to read the translated version. I haven’t donned the hijab but I try to wear more covered clothes now like long pants and long sleeve shirt.
4 months plus later I am still living with the same fear. About a few weeks ago, I received a news that one of a relative passed away because of breasts cancer. And I had an extreme panic attack thinking I was going to die from it too. I am praying so hard Allah will grant me rezeki in a form of good health. Because cancer terrifies me. I sometimes lay in bed all day and cry and begged Allah not to take away my health like that. I am terrified. I worry every day. I can’t sleep properly. I keep thinking about how I will die or how someone I love will die. And it’s causing a lot of stress.
This is health anxiety or just anxiety in a general sense… It is the result of our own thoughts… Of course if you think you are in danger the bodies fight or flight survival instinct is going to kick in.. This will feel usual because we aren’t supposed to be in this mode unless there is an actual danger.. Also death is a natural thing. We live and we enjoy the blessings of Allah and we return to Allah and then we are judged on the day of judgment… And if you are worried about your current state and your akhirah then this is good but it is only good when it makes us productive not when it paralysis us.. And you already know this which is why you are seeking help.. May Allah help all of our brothers and sisters who are going through hardships and make it an expiciation of their sins and shortcomings and oh Allah bless us with paradise and let us not be amongst those who are losers and disgraced in the hereafter.. Ameen.
Learn about Islam sister and keep learning.
And go see a therapist and they may help you understand what you are going through as they have experienced this either themselves or in their previous patients..
And there are deep breathing videos on YouTube they will help as well insha’Allah. And just try to meditate throughout the day.. This will teach your body to be in a relaxed state rather than tense all the time…
Yes we are sinners and the best of sinners are those who repent.
We should remember that Allah is Oft Forgiving Most Merciful.
And never lose hope in the mercy of Allah.
And for the believer death leads to nothing but goodness.
We aren’t judged for our thoughts we will be judged for our words and actions and intentions…
So I hope what I’ve said helps you put things into perspective insha’Allah.
And hope you start to feel at ease we are only distressed when we don’t understand what is happening.
So salaam sister and say Astaghfirallah and Alhumdulillah constantly
Asalaamu Alaikum sister.
So you have what they call health anxiety..
And it’s the result of what you’re thinking about and then you are in fear of it..
So you think about some deadly disease and now you think you may get it and then it will kill you..
And now our body feels like it’s in danger because we have told it we are with our thoughts..
Now the survival instinct has kicked in fight or flight mode and this feels odd so we get more scared or anxious..
And this keeps happening over and over..
The treatment for this is to break the stress cycle..
And I’m just someone who is going through it so I can just tell you how I myself cope obviously Islam is the best source of help.. Recite Quran listen to it.. Perform the salaah.. Wudu make extensive dua.. Connect with Allah in the true sense. ..
And relax and other things that help with relaxing are chamomile tea peppermint ginger etc
Deep breathing excercises help there are videos on YouTube and mediation videos.. These teach you to relax the body and this then relaxes the mind..
Now we have always known that there is danger in this world but we didn’t let it bother us before why?
Because we were busy we didn’t have time to overthink…
So keep the tongue moist with the rememberance of Allah and find something that will keep you busy and don’t just worry all the time worrying doesn’t fix anything action does.
Hope this helps sister may Allah bless us all ameen.

I have health n death anxiety It’s been 2 weeks n I have this I am very worried I always think I will die then I get panicked plx guys help me ۔
Assalamualaikum, I am 20 years old. I am always taught that boys shouldn’t cry. They don’t have to show their emotions. But I cry whenever I feel overwhelmed in front of everyone. Is it a sign of weakness?. Or it is normal.
i don’t think its a sign of weakness, all the prophets cried and they were male, Allah didn’t create men as robots w no emotions, in fact I think its a weakness that some boys think showing emotion is a weakness
Assalamualaikum,
I recently wrote a comment. It’s been 6 months struggling. I keep counting days of when I will die. The information about 40-100days before death is driving me crazy. My heart doesn’t race like before but I am crippled by the thought of death.
My friend who passed away, did ask me “are you afraid of death?” And a year later she died. I am really worried if this is a sign that I am actually dying or is it just the whispers of syaitan. Can someone please help.
what if you have no one to talk to, or when u want to talk to someone u cant because u feel like they won’t care, and I don’t want to get professional help, I speak to god all the time but I feel like I need human help, and an actual human to talk to and seek advice from
I’m going through the same thing. I feel like no one understands what I am going through. I am tired of pretending to be strong when I am actually not.
Something similar has happened to me.. 4 months ago I lost a family member and I was just 7 days into postpartum… and 1 month ago I had the first panic attack… all I can think of is death.. at times it paralyzes me completely…. I cnt sleep at night and my daily life is hugely impacted… my 4 month old child is affected by my situation… I feel hopeless… and this fear of death gets so overwhelming. Remember me in yr prayers… I went to the psychiatrist but cnt take medicines out of fear of addiction.
Walekum as salam warehmatulahi wabarqatuhu
I’m going through with the same phase.
Are you okay now?
As Salam aleikum warahmatullahi wabarakutu.
I am suffering from anxiety, negative thought and depression for some years ago. I will be thinking that someone will do evil to me, even though that person want to do good to me. I am always thinking that I will fail if l write exam.It’s even make me restless in all my deeds. What can I do?
Assalam o Alaikum!I was feeling so embarrassed to write this but I’m tired of crying alone. I am 21 years old. Not married, I’m a student. I don’t know how to explain this but its been a few weeks and i am hearing a voice in my head that is me, in my head i am saying “Oh Allah let my child to be born a ______ (not normal). I am so worried when ever i do something when ever i am busy what ever I do i feel that voice praying same words. I have apologised to Allah, i have cried but it doesn’t go away. I am worried it may come true in future. I don’t want this to happen i want to stop this but i have no control. Please PLEASE someone tell me that this won’t happen. I’m scared i don’t know how this is happening.
Walekum as salam warehmatulahi wabarqatuhu sister. Dont worry at all, you’re getting waswasa from shaitaan which is normal for every Muslims. The only thing you need to do is to seek help through prayers. Recite Durood upon our Prophet MUHAMMAD (S.A.W) and recite ayatul kursi more often. InShaaALLAH if ALLAH (S.W.T) your situation will be fine soon.❤️
You need to do ruqyah, recite Surah Baqarah and between every ayat, make a specific dua for shifa on any type of affliction you are going through.
Repeat this dua between every ayat, continue doing so until you have finished your session or too tired to continue on. Repeat daily or regularly until Allah gives you shifa.
If Surah Baqarah is difficult try the Kuls including surah Fatiha and make dua between each surah.
Assalamoalaikum

I keep getting sad about the events that is going to happen. I mean I keep getting sad about the signs of the day of judgement, especially about the Dajjal, Injustice and thinking about how the world will easily be trapped by dajjal’s tricks. How do I stop being sad and stop thinking about all this? Is it right to think about this a lot and get sad?
Please reply.
Assalamo alaikom Warahmatollahi Wabarakatuho.
For few months, I’m suffering anxiety and depression cause by someone threat in my life. Firstly, a lot of money I loss. My car also loss because of one. Secondly, someone threat my life because of his credit to me in which I never say bad words to him. Now I am suffering serious anxiety and depression. I always put in my mind such threat in the future. The only hope is by Allah s.w.t.
I never go with any supporting scientific medicine. What is the best way for me to overcome this mental health crisis of mine aside from religious method. Thank you very much in advance.
I’m 20 years old and I have suffered from social anxiety since I was a teenager. I have difficulty speaking up or starting a conversation with any one. I start to panic and sweat if I have speak to strangers. Please make dua for me. I have suffered from this for a long time.
Aslam o alykum… Sister.. the case is same with me…. Same situation…. How are you feeling now a days.. i hope you will reply ????
Hi um I have been going through some weird thoughts like I can’t sleep at night my mother says I am sleeping although I think I’m not im constantly over thinking about whether I’m gonna die or not when I sleep im really scared. I went to the doctors yesterday and they said that there is nothing we can do we can’t give u sleeping pills at this day and age cause I am 18 they said that we could give u a psychologist but I don’t want one tbh, I went through these thoughts about 2 weeks ago and Alhamdullilah I felt better but it came back again and I don’t know what to do I feel like because I am getting too scared that means that I am not fearing Allah (swt). As of right now I have promised myself that I will fight and that I will try to get through this because I am scared that I will give up and die. I pray that Allah (swt) helps each and everyone of us scrolling through these comments as well as the people who are commenting. I hope someone who relates and who recovered from this or could just offer advice does. Thanks
Salam my dear friend you seem to be in a very anxious state of mind .I hope it gets better I relate to this feeling of being trapped in my mind and getting stuck in thoughts. I suggest you see a psychiatrist and explain them your symptoms and problems
In my case it was ocd because in it thoughts are repeating ,unable to get rid of ,filled with doubt and guilt ,I hope you see this message I am also struggling like you but content of thoughts is different like what if I become a very bad person and it affects every aspect of my life
Fortunately,medications and understanding symptoms and dealing with them helped.may you feel better soon ameen
Salam aleikum!
SubuanAllah.
av been struggling with this thoughts for months. I’m a mother of three beautiful children. I keep prodding and poking my body for symptoms.
Sometimes comes with dreams, I always tried to be positive and replace my thoughts but don’t no what to do..
Assalamualaikum, plz I really need help.. How can I heal my heart from the disease of Kufr, how can I stop myself from submitting to my ego and starts to re-establish my connection to Allah?
Assalamu alaikum i m having negative feeling anxiety from past one year after my close relative die due to COVID. I feel like I might have heart attack or stroke as I have developed BP n diabetes at the age of 34 yrs. I feel how ll look after my kids if anything happens to me. I can’t understand how to handle this situation. Please help me.
Salam!! Listen I’m 17 and past 8 months ago I went through depression since I’ve mdr tuberculosis and it’s medications are too strong later i however manged and fought back against depression but later after 1 months that is since last 7 months I suffered from panic disorder that is anxiety. For 2 months I fought it by myself like within those 2 months at times I used to feel all oky but then later after few days I used to feel anxious unnesserily…every day I used to face this but the next day I used to rise again… I was tired but didn’t loose hope… when I used to tell my parents to take me to the psychiatrist they used to say that you are all well it’s the side effects of TB medication…. I was getting tired day by day at last I cried out in front of my parents and they realized that it’s really serious. They took me to the psychiatrist and he started medication and that helped me alot to get better and regain my confidence. Now I’ve stopped that medication and yet I’m all well… so in saying all these things my point is that going to psychiatrist does not mean that you are mentally weak or anything related…. and seeking someone’s help to fight against your anxiety or depression is not bad at all. Speak out. Seek help from one who understands you. Remember one thing your thoughts aren’t always real. It’s just your thought. Just see them. Don’t react to it. This message is for everyone struggling though anxiety or depression or any mental illness… Eat healthy. Pray. Excercise. Feel the positive energy around… I know you can fight back through every bad and worst situation. God loves you????
Salaam
I am getting married soon inshallah. I have been speaking with my fiance majority online and been getting to know her in a way I am not used to. We have built a very strong emotional connection. We have made mistakes with each other in the past but have to turned to Allah for forgiveness and have moved on. I have done my istkihaara a few times and have had positive feeling after each time. However, time to time I have negative thoughts and start questioning everything and this always makes me anxious. I start to overthink and spiral. I chose her because of her deen and I know it is right but we have been doing a long distance relationship and I am worried about the future. It’s been around 8 months so far and I believe Allah has brought us so far for a reason but I just been so confused by everything. Any suggestions?

Assalamualaikum.
I have been having bad anxiety since more than an year now. And it keeps getting worse day by day. I have been having constant burning sensation on my head. My family has been pressuring to get married to such an extend now that my family has boycotted me. I have been telling them that when a proposal comes I dont get a good feeling or feel attracted to the person regardless of all the checks. But they are now giving me the silent treatment for not accepting any proposals this is causing me to have more anxiety and depression. I also have fear from thinking what if i end up with a person who will not let me be by myself. Everything that has been happening in last few months is giving me constant headaches, i cant smile anymore, i cant eat anything and i have been having thoughts of hurting myself. However, I am praying and crying to Allah since before the time all this started. I just feel like i am praying and still all doors are closed. Things are getting worse day by day. I ask forgiveness from Allah everytime i have such negative thoughts but I am losing my control over it. I just dont know anymore how to change anything in my situation. I am losing myself. Please help.
Salams. Its just been 3 months that i have been living with my husband. It was an arranged marriage. We never met before marriage but got along well and spoke on the phone. I shifted abroad from india. Its just been 3 months and his family is being so bad to me, treats me like a maid and plays mind games with me all the time. I feel so depressed that i want to end my life at this point, my husband stood for me once or twice but he just acts as if he cares, but i can see that he doesn’t. He is just living his life playing games, doing sheesha and doesnt care about me at all. He doesnt talk to me all day. I feel so alone and lonely here. I cant even go out for a walk or anything alone. I am so trapped in this house. I thought things will get better as at least my husband is with me but now i am completely alone and depressed. I want to speak to my parents and run away and file a divorce. I am afraid to say this to my husband because he has no control on his anger and will threaten me. I am not happy with this marriage what should i do
Assalamualaikum
I am 21 years old.I suffering from anxiety too much since past few months.Whenever I get happy about something within few seconds I get negative thoughts and eventually I get sad about everything.
I’ve done so many past mistakes however I’ve repented but I frequently get the thoughts like what if my family will come to know about my past and what if my future husband will get to know about my past,these thoughts frequently is occupying me too nuch much that I’m unable to concentrate on my daily activities.
The next thing is I’m getting frequent thoughts of death that I’ll die soon these thoughts are so much that I’m unable to eat and sleep.
Please help with this because these thoughts are effecting me really bad
Salaam!
They should not treat you like that, but I’m sure they have their own reasons from prejudices against your or stress and other things. Regardless, you deserve respect and emotional comfort. I hope you can reach out to someone you trust so that you can have a healthy but straightforward conversation with your husband’s family. And if you don’t love him… well, as far as I know in Islam one cannot go against the will of the daughter in the context of marriage. Slowly but surely, please take care of yourself! May Allaah grant you an exciting and happy life ahead, without having to compromise on YOUR dreams.
Assalamualaikum, Great article. May Allah bless you for helping the society with great tips.
I have a very controlling nature , I just hate or feel extremely depressed when things go opposite. Minor issues just snatches my comfort. just wake up like zombies . Cry like babies trouble in sleeping & breathing even I feel fast heart beat. M pregnant with hypothyroid taking medicines regularly
Salaam all,
Put your trust in Allaah and don’t forget that depression is ALWAYS lying to you (whatever your negative thoughts may be — like you are worthless, or that Allaah will not forgive you for something particular), that’s the way depression works. Remember you can turn to therapy and see a doctor because it DOES help and there is no shame in it.
I have recovered myself and am truly blessed and grateful for everything that is now and was in my life before, Alhamdulillah. All the best to all parts of the world! May you all see a bright bright future in front of you.
Salaams I’ve been having death anxiety and I even googled the 100 days sign before death which gave me more panic is anyone still here…that has recovered from it … Please help!!
How are you doing now
I made a big mistake, I lied to my bestest friend and we stopped talking, she blocked me of all social media. It has now been a year and no contact at all.
I have had alot of guilt building up inside me and I really want to apologise to her.
I gathered courage and called her number withheld only because she blocked my number.
As soon as I said Aslam-o-alaikum she recognised my voice and put the phone down before I could say anything.
I am worried if I keep trying to call her she will think I am harrasing her or she will probably get family involved so I have now stepped back.
Will my good intention count? As in I tried to call and speak to her but she cut me off before I could say anything.
Surely Allah knows out pure intentions and knows I rang because I was feeling guilty and I would have apologised if she let me speak.
Can please anyone advice as I am feeling very guilty still.
JazakAllah
