What advice can you offer to someone facing challenges in their relationship with Allah when their supplications feel ineffective or insufficient?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

1, Beware from the worst enemy Shaitan (Satan) who always tries to distance you from Allah and seek Allah's protection from the evil of Shaitan by repeating أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم

2. Keep on seeking from Allah and never lose hope in His Mercy and Grace.

3. Repeat Estighfaar especially at night when you are alone.

4. Repeat Salawaat as it opens the gates and treasures of every bounty in this world and hereafter.

5. Night Prayer (Salat Al-Layl or Namaz e Shab) is very important recommended prayer every night which makes you near to Allah and purifies our hearts.

6. Long Sojood (Prostration) makes you more near to Allah and more far from Shaitan.

7.  Seeking the Waseela (intercession) and Du'a if Imam Al-Mahdi (AS) is the best way to gain nearness to Allah (SWT).

I have come across many videos about signs of Allah on YouTube. I worry that not watching them might indicate arrogance towards His signs. Do I need to watch all of them, or is this just a Waswasa from Shaytan?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

We don't need nor require to watch all the materials of the signs of Allah on You Tube or Internet. We watch whatever we can or need. Wassalam.
I have heard two views on Allah SWT, one saying He has the power to become a man but it is not in His nature, citing a Hadith about Allah's limitless power. The other view is that He cannot have power over impossibilities. Which one is correct?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Allah (SWT) Have All Powers  on every thing but He does not Do any wrong . He never resembles any of His creatures as we read in Du'a Al-Sabah : O Who pure and higher than resembling or similarity with His creatures. وتَنَزَّهَ عن مجانسة مخلوقاته.

Allah does not become a man because it is wrong.

Does Allah SWT ever stop individuals from engaging in specific sins such as Zina, drug use, or Haram business practices?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Allah (SWT) Helps His sincere servants to avoid damaging themselves when they are sincerely seeking His help. Nevertheless, it does not mean that He stops every sinner or criminal. Human beings were granted intellect  which guides them to the right as well as the messengers who guided people to the right path and warned them from the wrong ways. Every human being is responsible of his own deeds. Allah (SWT) Helps those who want to do good, and even protect sincere servants from falling in sinful acts under certain circumstances, but Allah Has granted human beings the option to decide their their own deeds with out any pressure from Him and Promised to reward the good deeds and punish the criminals in their own evil deeds.

Wassalam.
