Where Can I Find Good Company?

Where can I find good company?

Dear questioner,

May Allah bless you and increase you in good.

The best thing that I recommend is to build your relationship with Allah Most High. He is our Lord and the Creator of our actions as well as our feelings.

There is no one to change the condition of our hearts except Him!

A recommended dua is the following:

(Yaa Muqallibal-quluub, thabbit qalbi ala dinik)

“O Changer of the hearts, make my heart firm upon Your religion. [Tirmidhi]

You may also pray the Prayer of Need.

At times many of us feel lonely or desire company and often, we may not find it at that particular time or place. However, have hope because I am sure in time, with Allah’s help, you will find the company you desire. I am not sure how old you are, but many other organizations out there may help you connect to other Muslims. There are also MSA’s in many places, are there any close to you? Some areas have gatherings of knowledge or dhikrs etc. Are there any near you? Do not give up without a thorough search.

Consider spending time with family members. If you have siblings and cousins, perhaps you can connect with them? Family can sometimes be healing. Even connecting via a platform online to speak to your family is noble and rewarded by Allah if you intend to please Him.

Finally, loneliness is something that may need further analysis and help if it is more serious. Please consult a health expert or a local scholar for further assistance.
