Ask A Question About Islam And Muslims

15 Questions

The Quran is used to guide people through real-life events. Why did that process stop, especially when today’s world needs guidance just as much? Especially since Imam Mahdi is in occultation, how are we meant to receive guidance today?

Amina Inloes

This is a big question and one that many people may have different answers on.

In my view, we have to have faith that we received what is necessary for us via the Qur'an and hadith, and ethical principles stated in them, and that we are meant to put forward effort to try to deduce the right answers for our time. This is part of our test and struggle as individuals and as a human race.

We still receive spiritual guidance from Imam Mahdi (A) and of course from Allah, even if it is not in the form of texts.

I am going through a lot of hardship and stress. I have school, so I struggle to find time to apply for jobs. Can I make Dua that the job that is written upon me or best for me should find me or l stumble up it?

Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

All of us need to seek from Allah, The Glorious to Grant us whatever He Know the best for us and never rely on our wishes and thinking and imaginations which are based on our limited knowledge, while Allah (SWT) Knows everything which is good for us. Relying on Allah's order is the best for us.

Wassalam.

Where can I find comprehensive knowledge about the Shia perspective and guidance on how to follow it?
