How often do you recite Istaghfar each day? Have you noticed any changes in your life since then?

Not enough number of times these days and I need to do it more. But it’s sure to bring positive changes. There was a time in 2020 when I was in trouble and I used to do more back then and now when I look back I have come a long way. Allah not only eased the consequences for me but there were other things that happened without me realising like I found my current job at almost double the salary of what I was getting back then and I knew that I didn’t have any special skills but Allah made the interview and negotiation and everything easy for me. I should get back to doing more istighfar. According to Hadith, if you do istighfar a lot Allah will give you from places unknown to you.

I don’t have a number because I don’t make a conscious effort to do 100 or 200. I just recite couple times in a day. But In Shaa Allah I’ll try to do it at least a 100 times

I do that everyday, i did it once took a decision that i thought i screwed up and 5 years later i looked back and noticed my life was so good as if i planned it with surgical precision. People tell me i am very strategic and know what i am doing, actually i barely use my head. Moral of the story is do not treat Allah or your prayer as transaction but rather a guiding star that only when you look back you will say “Alhamdulilah, indeed i am in the best possible path”

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Salam. 23M here - all my life I’ve had my back on our faith - never really prayed but had imaan (I guess). After bouts of depression from girl problems (🙄), issues within immediate family, being disappointed expectations I had for myself, etc. I’ve been working on bettering my situation over the years. Faith is the only area where I think I need more guidance. Having trouble relating to friends or family about this. Anyone else been thru something similar? How have you connected back to Islam?

There’s no excuse that by the age of 25 you have never tried therapy. I’m speaking directly to the demographic in this group who I’m sure over 95% of people in here are earning 6 figures. Key word: TRY. I understand it’s not for everyone but to have never even attempted seeking therapy is a injustice to yourself and the people around you.
