need a polite way to say "im not engaging in a discussion on this topic with you because the conclusions you have reached are based on so many interwoven layers of misconceptions it would be easier to just like, hard reset your whole brain, just start over as a baby and try again"
Just the thought that you need to be a better Muslim shows that light still exists in your heart
Tawakkul is more than just trust; it's a deep reliance on Allah, believing that He is the best of planners.
In every difficulty, know that He has a plan for you, one that is filled with wisdom and mercy.
Embrace tawakkul, and let your heart find tranquility in His divine care.

Ibn al-Jawzī (رحمه الله) said:
“I do not know of something more beneficial than isolating from people; you don’t come across anyone except one who complains about a calamity, or is envious of a blessing, or looking for your faults.”
[Ṣayd al-Khāṭir (p. 275)]
“Be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.”
— Max Ehrmann; Desiderata
Knowing that what Allah have in store for me is the best gives me so much ease about my future
