Guys, how's your experience with du'a/ personal prayers
-
Peace
I know I've made very SPECIFIC prayers sometimes and next thing you know, those specific prayers came true! However, other times I've prayed and it almost feels like there's nobody listening. I start to almost feel this sort of 'existential loneliness'...yeah, I struggle with that sometimes / Does this mean I haven't been good enough so God leaves me alone in my thoughts? Because sometimes you make a prayer and then God can make you feel like He's listening even if it's through people or animals around you or even just a certain atmosphere or just anything really...
And then sometimes (in fact a lot of the time) I make a prayer and I get an answer in my head but I can't figure out if I'm just answering myself by talking back to myself in my head (or if my subconscious is helping me out) or if it's God helping me out. How do you know?

The Quran encourages believers to seek their needs from God through prayer and supplication. Some of the verses that mention this include
Surah Al-Baqarah, 2186
Surah Al-Baqarah, 2263
Surah Al-Imran, 38
Surah Al-Muminun, 2338
Surah Al-Muminun, 2397
Surah Al-Furqan, 2574
Surah Al-Shura, 4226
Surah Al-Isra, 1711
Surah Al-Kahf, 1810
Surah Ta-Ha, 20130These verses emphasize the importance of turning to God in times of need and seeking His help and guidance. They also emphasize the power of prayer and the importance of having faith and trust in God.
The idea of God answering prayers is a common belief in many religious traditions, and the nature of this interaction can vary greatly between individuals and belief systems. Some people interpret answered prayers as evidence of God's direct intervention, while others see it as a sign of divine guidance or encouragement.
As for the feelings of existential loneliness that can sometimes accompany prayer, it's not uncommon for people to feel this way at times, regardless of their beliefs. It's possible that these feelings stem from a variety of factors, such as feelings of isolation, uncertainty, or stress. It's important to remember that everyone experiences different emotions and thoughts when it comes to their spiritual beliefs and practices, and there is no right or wrong way to feel.
Regarding the question of whether you are simply answering yourself when you get an answer in your head after praying, it is a common experience for many people to feel like they are communicating with a higher power, regardless of whether that power is God, the universe, or something else. Ultimately, what is most important is how these experiences make you feel and what they mean to you personally.

The above reply from an AI Based Computer system. Link https//openai.com/blog/chatgpt/ . You can ask just about anything.If you ask my personal opinion, you will know in your heart why some times there is no answer. and why at other times there is. only you can know as this is a very personal affair between you and your creator.

Is AI beneficial or a massive threat to human life? It may look it has its advantages but it is not like a technologocal products which gives more convenience to human being... It has a huge threat and now people won't understand it coz they see only good side of it.. coz human is so lazy and always wants a easy lifestyle..
So the question on faith also an answer from AI... If someone is searching a numerical pattern in Quran and if he feels tired of manual way of exploring then get the aid of computers.. no harm in the end the results are same but computer is quick human is slow...
But is AI doing the same job? Very dangerous... Yes one would say in a mocking way, this is what people said when TV was invented it isn't good to use blaa blaa.. But go in depth in to AI and think of it and anyone will perceive the reality of AI... Iblees has found a new way to dupe and destroy human being through human beings creation itself... 4119 is good example for that...But those who depend on them let them depend... It's their life. For sure real believers would not depend on AI for their faith...God questions self and not AI..
Note ..one of the modern day very famous American scientist does say that "when AI take over the world, whatever God is He will be a Pet"... Well Iblees is powerful don't get duped.. Who will get duped unless who are meant for hell fire..

At first, I thought, why is this brother writing from such a neutral standpoint? Then it made sense lol
ChatGPT seemed to have surfaced out of nowhere. I read about it for the first time randomly a few days ago...
If you ask my personal opinion, you will know in your heart why some times there is no answer. and why at other times there is. only you can know as this is a very personal affair between you and your creator.
I mean if for instance, I prayed for x person to become a friend and then it doesn't happen, I can assume that either said person is not good for me, I'm not good for them or we're just somehow incompatible...
But if I have a question about anything else for example, I need an answer to why I'm going through a struggle in a certain area of life and maybe I can't understand why it's happening to me OVER AND OVER again- maybe a health problem or something else like if I had a neutral yet confusing dream that seems to try to teach me something yet I can't figure out the moral of the story or a random real-life experience where something strange happens and you don't know WHY...From a secular point of view, we assume that life is random and things happen for no reason sometimes but I don't think that's necessarily the case in reality. I think God is an intelligent God who created this life and all it entails for a reason and purpose so consequently, things that happen to the test subjects within life, do not happen just for the fun of it. Every weird dream or life experience must have some sort of lesson within it.

I think AI is not evil in and of itself. It can be used for good or bad however since humans are not angels something bad is bound to happen. They might use AI to create future armies like in horror movies etc. It has always scared me. I partially agree that it is a threat to human life in the wrong hands.
I had a dream years ago of a human-like robot with an eery face and unfamiliar, otherworldly demeanor...a strange presence. It followed me as I ran up the stairs of a dark house where I could hardly see anything like in a dark room at night. Its footsteps were as if drums were playing, louder and LOUDER. Nerves were kicking in...I think I was shaking. I slowed down out of fear. I looked back at it, my muscles tensed up and I froze at the sight of its face, staring right back at me in a simultaneous manner.
Coming back to the main topic, what's your experience with personal prayers like?

You have good memory of your dreams... That's abnormal when it comes to me.. Meanwhile nice dream.. I wish I can interpret.. But i am sorry... Lol
Well Dua/prayers or supplications are imperative in life.. We need to communicate with God with every aspect of life but ensure to supplicate more for the life to come..
Most important part of prayers especially when you ask for something of this worldly matter be it material pleasure or physical pleasure or mental pleasure, is faith and patience after requesting from God... No wavering or no hurry or no dissapointment... Wait for it and even if the supplication is answered never slacken but still approach the same God for all your necessities...
My person experiences ... I don't ask much from God for this world but I do ask for others some have become true some not... After they are supicationa and God is not meant to grant Green signal to everything his true believer ask... God gives what He wills.. So be patient... Without patience no future ...
