    Question: I have a very big problem with me. I have not offered salah for 1 month as I am suffering from depression, anxiety and some mental tensions and in the night every day I remember Allah (SWT) and in mind ask him to please forgive me. I recite surahs and ayahs and then keep taking Allah's name and go to sleep. I have not told this to any one as I think I am guilty for this and if I tell this to any one I will get scolding. Please help me.

    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 300/237/B=1433) Make qaza of one month salah which you missed. In-shaAllah, with the blessings of salah your depression and anxiety shall be removed. Also recite the following dua extensively to remove your mental depression: لا حَوْلَ وَلا قُوَّةَ إلا بِاللهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيم May Almighty Allah grant you peace and ease and save you from all kinds of troubles! Amen!

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
