How can I become the best servant of Allah (SWT) after feeling hopeless and ashamed due to my past sins?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

We need to sincerely seek forgiveness and pardon of Allah (SWT) for our sins, and decide not to repeat our mistakes and sins and perform our duties and avoid sins.

Allah Says in Quran: Say: O My servants who exceeded the limits and committed sins, never lose hope from the Mercy of Allah, surely Allah Foregives all the sins, Verily He is The Fore-giver, The Merciful. (Sura 39, verse 53).

Wassalam.
Why does God sometimes seem to give us false hope?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Allah, The Glorious, never gives false hope to any one. On the contrary, every promise from Allah is True with out fail. Quran states in many verses that (Truth is the promise of Allah).

You might be misunderstanding some situations, then thinking that there is a false hope. Our misunderstanding is from us and never from Allah. Every promise from Allah is the absolute truth.

Despite praying for my father's well-being and increased sustenance, I haven't seen the desired results. How can I maintain hope and overcome the feeling that Allah is not listening to my prayers and Duas?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

We believe that Allah (SWT) Listens to our prayers and Responds to it whenever He Knows best for us. We should never think that Allah is not Listening to our prayers. He Has Promised to respond to our prayers (Invoke Me, I Will respond to you) Sura 40, Verse 60.

Keep on seeking and praying and be sure that Allah Will Definitely Respond.

‘You might wait for some time till the suitable time comes, but be sure that Allah’s response is definite.

How can I perform a true Niyat? I always lose hope and resolve after making an aim and I lack patience for hard work. How can I get out of this state?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

We always need to strengthen our will power and that does not come through just wishing but through hard work and constant training.

Fasting is one of the practices which help strengthening will power, and also Night Prayer (Salat Al-Layl or Namaz e Shab) and any good work which your desire does not like but you do it for the sake of Allah.

Wassalam.
