Assalammualaikum wa rahmatullah wabarakatuh

Hello all

I live in USA for 5 years now but from S.E.Asia.   When my parents died, I felt lonely, unmarried and after some years, I got married in USA.  Now I have never been more lonely in my life.  I feel I am on a different planet.

Greetings salwa,

I am sorry to hear of your troubles.  I hope that you can find friends and support, and a way to feel fulfilled and less lonely.
I have heard it said that there is no loneliness worse than feeling lonely in a relationship.  I think we feel all our problems are at an end when we marry.  When we are alone and lonely at least we feel there is something we can do about it.  You need to have that same attitude even though you are married.  Seek things outside yourself... things that serve God.
Blessings and peace to you.
Heart

Dear Bro.,

A Muslim should never feel " that" lonely, you could recite Quran be with Allah, learn more about Islam, join some Islamic centers, I'm sure there are many in US where you can learn more about islam and meet new Muslims and even make new friends.

God Bless you.

Assalammualaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh
Thank you for voice of concern.  I am a born Muslim sister and quite old, over 40.  I married a convert Muslim American.  Although he is a generally a good Muslim, but we have differences and dispute. Poor communication by him.  The bottom strong point is I cannot live with him anymore. I always want to go but no money, nowhere to go and with lots of personal stuff. I seek help from Muslim organization but they are not willing to offer help but open to receive donation. 
HASBUNALLAH WA NIKMAL WAKIL ..... being in a terrible emotional situation, alhamdulillah I seek ALLAH's help with desperation.  Alhamdulillah, I have a place to keep my stuff with a non-Muslim organization, and get a loan from a non-Muslim friend (of my origin country) who instantly said YES to help. 
I am on my way to another state and into a home Muslim shelter, alhamdulillah.  I seek ALLAH'S help again to find my independence soonest and can get my stuff back.  
 
Ramadan Mubarak to all brothes/sisters
