There are different types of depression. Some of the depression cases can be avoided or treated by remembering Allah and sincerely seeking His Help. Some depression cases are out of control and can not be treated but by medical experts. Such uncontrolled depression is an illness like other uncontrolled illnesses. If the person loses control and goes out of his senses, then he will be considered behaving out of his senses. Allah only Knows the real feelings and status of the senses of people. Allah Judges people and we are not entitled to judge others. We just pray for the well-being of depressed people and for the forgiveness of late believers.

We should not mix between free will which covers our behaviour  and destiny which covers other sides of our life which are out of our choice. Everything which out of our choice like our parents, our place of birth, our gender, our ethnic background , our skin color, our language, our body etc are destined, hence no question will be raised on any destined matter. Our faith and acts and morals are not destined on us but left to us to chose and decide, that is why we are fully responsible of our faith, acts and morals.

Failing an exam does not mean a sign to stop trying. We need to put more efforts to reach to our lawful aims as much as we can. There is no question of haunting our efforts to achieve more as far as the aim is practicality possible and good for us and others.

‘Failure should encourage us to work harder avoiding the reasons of the failure.

‘Supplication and seeking from Allah (SWT) is our weapon as the Hadeeth states: Supplication is the weapon of the believer الدعاء سلاح الؤمن

We need to seek help from Allah to achieve our noble aims.

Wassalam.

Firstly, I would recommend you watch this presentation, and although it might be bit technical for her, you would be able to hopefully explain it in a way that she understands:

Basically, in Arabic language, pronouns do not always necessarily need to refer to gender, and we most certainly know that Allah ta'ala is above gender, but we must refer to Him with something. 

In the English language, he/she in most cases only refers to gender, so the problem could be due to the language as well. Whatever the case may be, we still need to address Almighty God with something, as long as we know and understand that it is not a gender based usage, because Almighty God does not have a body or a gender. 

And Allah knows best

It is allowed to name your business after any holy name as far as the full respect of the holy name is kept. Sometimes some mistakes in the business can cause disrespect by some unhappy customers. In general, we should always keep the full respect of the holy names and never expose it to business ups and downs.

The Prophet (SAWA) and the Infallible Imams (AS) who have been martyred are alive and never dead. Allah says in Quran ( Never say dead to those who were been killed in the way of Allah, in fact they are alive but you don’t feel. (Sura Al-Baqara, verse 154).

All Muslims greet the Prophet (SAWA) in every Prayer by saying: ASSALAMU Alayka Ayyuhan Nabiyyu Warahmatullah Wabarakatuh. Which means that the Prophet is alive that is why we greet him from where ever we are.

'The Prophet and Infallible Imams listen to us and pray for us.

Thank you for your question. Fully surrendering to Allah is a process that only a few manage to achieve. As such try and treat it like a process instead of something that should just happen at once. Keep struggling and working towards that lifetime goal.

May you always be successful

Yes, of course you can do that, and it is rather recommended to do charity work and noble deeds on behalf of others, alive or passed. 

You will indeed be rewarded equally, if not more for your consideration of doing good deeds on behalf of others.

Allah, The Glorious, never gives false hope to any one. On the contrary, every promise from Allah is True with out fail. Quran states in many verses that (Truth is the promise of Allah).

You might be misunderstanding some situations, then thinking that there is a false hope. Our misunderstanding is from us and never from Allah. Every promise from Allah is the absolute truth.

Allah, The Glorious Has Created us and Showered in us all the bounties. He never Creates hardships for us but we create hardships for ourselves because of our misbehaving and errors. We need to be grateful to Allah and thank Him for His endless bounties on us and in every one and everything. When we thank Allah, our bounties will remain and increase. More thanking Allah and seeking forgiveness for our sins is the way to get better.

We believe that Allah (SWT) Listens to our prayers and Responds to it whenever He Knows best for us. We should never think that Allah is not Listening to our prayers. He Has Promised to respond to our prayers (Invoke Me, I Will respond to you) Sura 40, Verse 60.

Keep on seeking and praying and be sure that Allah Will Definitely Respond.

‘You might wait for some time till the suitable time comes, but be sure that Allah’s response is definite.
