confused, losing faith and need some help to restore

Question

i feel like im losing my faith. im starting to feel less of a muslim, i dont agree with all the rules and im even starting to wonder if there is a god. i dont want to feel this way and i want to have more faith and feel more connected and not like im just living a lie and being muslim because my family are muslim. what does this mean, and what can i do? i dont necessarily want to become more islamic, but just more faithful and religious overall

Answer

It appears that you are keeping the wrong type of company and environment. As a matter of urgency, try to identify some pious people in your vicinity and try to keep their company.

If there is some pious Aalim close to you, establish contact with him and take guidance from him. This is an emergency, and you need help quick. Delaying may cause the situation to reach a point of no return.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
