What if before everything you thought you thought of ? first? Sounds impossible for sure, who can keep track of all those thoughts. Some of them I'm fairly certain I didn't even "think". I'd have to pay attention to what's going on in my mind to catch all these thoughts and then I'd be reminded to think about ? , but then it's to late because the thought is already had. My other option is to constantly think about ? instead of "other things", and then for sure I'd always be ready to have another thought because before I thought anything I thought about ? .


* whether ? exists or not, whether ? is real or just a mere concept, this is what "? "/? has done for me lately.

    Just ? . Whatever "? " is, whichever ? "it" is, whether or not "this/that" ? exists, the fact remains ? is on/in the mind.

    The original post did not make sense. ? does what he wants if he exists. So, the answer is he has done what he wanted to for you lately

    This.

    Nothing in my life can be attributed to ? . During repeated times I have seen this ? doesn't exist.

    OP did make sense. Maybe think on it for a while, but think of ? first ;). Everyone runs around wondering what they can do for ? , the way I got it figured, and infinite being would be doing for me.

    don't think i've ever seen it worded that way

    you've SEEN proof for His NON-EXISTENCE but not for His existence?

    to answer the thread it would be easier to answer what Allah does not do you for you than to answer the opposite

    If ? existed, I should've seen him already. Maybe in spiritual form or maybe just in a blessing, but there's none of that in my life. Everything that's happened in my life is JUST.

    It's actually surprising to be honest, because I've gone through a lot of ? . Especially w/ my son when he was born. The first 3 years were horrible, because of what he was born with. You would think that I would be MORE religious, that actually was the turning point of me being LESS religious but still religious sorta (at the time)

    My son was born with:

    Hyperplastic Left Heart Syndrome - rare congenital heart defect in which the left side of the heart is severely underdeveloped.

    Double Outlet Right Ventricle - A DORV is a very rare congenital heart defect in which both the pulmonary artery and the aorta known as the great vessels -- arise from the right ventricle.

    Little dude went through his first surgery at 2 weeks old. He has his last surgery in 2008, 3 between 2006 (born) to 2008. In this time he went through not being able to eat, so he was fed through a tube that was in his stomach. Then he had to go through therapy to walk, crawl etc because he was in a hospital bed so much.

    Now he seems like a normal kid, who does everything normal.

    I blamed ? and hated ? , then I came to that ? didn't do this and went back to being a "believer". That was a turning point in which I just starting becoming distant w/ religion and ? . I tried to keep it, keep believing etc but now it don't even exist anymore in my mind....

    I see. Glad to hear that you son is doing fine now. It's a hard process to digest whenever a loved one is going through a situation and we ALL have to wonder and question ? , but I at least understand where you're coming from though. Sometimes it's hard to figure out if you should or shouldn't stick with your faith because of those situations and since yours was a delicate one, I can see why you feel ? doesn't exist anymore in your mind. The faith walk was never a claim to be an easy road to travel on. I'm glad you came to that conclusion that The Most High wasn't to blame.

    I've noticed that most of the time people tend to become disbelievers in ? it's because they feel like they've been wronged, if you believe that you will be paid in full for all of your deeds (as well as your son) then what's the problem? Especially with how hard his life has been at such a young age do you honestly believe a just and merciful ? won't reward both of you for persevering through that and remaining thankful

    and how somebody can say they don't have any blessings and/or have never been blessed but then turn around and talk about how their son has survived all types of surgeries and is completely healthy now is a little bit nuts if you ask me
