A Muslim friend told me. Why? Because:
-I don't wear hijab - I don't want to either.
-I don't pray
-I don't really believe in Islam. anymore, nothing makes sense to me.
-I don't like listening to Quran recitation anymore. I did before, when I didn't even understand what they said, really. Now I do, mostly and no...
- He said I have changed alot, and not only him, many other people from here. It feels like I woke up, that I started thinking, don't know if it's good...
What do you think?
He said something about surat al nas? That I should listen to it...what's with that sura?
surprised

Well, I was once like that too.. I personally think that doubt has a good point by itself (but don't always doubt), it will cause curiosity to study Islam even further. I felt better to follow it after I looked after it and compared it whith the other (other religion and science) than when I was just taught it from one source. Our iman won't stay on a same level forever. It will fluctuate. But we have to do our best to keep it on high level, even though it's impossible to always stay on high forever, as we're a 'normal' human. But when ours is on a low level, we have to try to raise it to even higher level, with studying further about what you doubt and/or do these. Insya Allah, you'll find that you're on the right path already (by choosing Islam as your religion, since I saw your post about asking about quitting in chatterbox). One of the reason that our level of iman is dropped is indeed shaytan's whisper. Surah An-Nas is all about asking for protection from all kind of evil, both from Jinn and human. So, yes, Insya Allah you'll be protected from those. Keep trying, Rania! we wish you luck in overcoming your problem, and of course, we'll be glad to help..^^ I know you can do it. And sorry if my answer isn't satisfying, because I'm just like you, in search for better answer myself, but I know I'm on the right path on this.

La Hawla Wala Qwata Ella Bellah!!
Surat Alnas is really good for u sis,
when i started reading it, i have got over feeling any confusion and awkwardness when it comes to prayer, and I am feeling like I am starting to make that connection with Allah, and my confidence is building in my routine all the time.
Really sis.. u need to re-organize everything that's going on in ur life..
Quitting isn't an easy thing to do!! u can be killed for that.. Have Faith!!
Praying for u.... sad

no you are not possesed by satan, every thing you stated is fine except that you don't pray, you should pray, and here is the Surah you asked about. Do the prayer and read that surah you will be fine and will make your logic out of it yourself in no time no body needs to explain to you what is going on.

Whatever happened to the values of humanity,
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality...
Allah...O.o...
Rainarai honey, all I can say is, all the best. ^^' Really though, prayer is easy - just like how in school you would learn how to figure out fractions and decimals and percentages and algebra! It's really not hard, trust me sister, with time, it could become a part of your life, just like breathing is.
First off, you don't like/want to wear the hijab - it's alright! One step at a time, besides it's not part of the Five Pillars of Islam, so consider the Five Pillars before that. =D
Secondly, you don't pray, now this is the only one I'm worried about. ^^' It's something all Muslims must fulfill, nevertheless, I'm guessing you're still a teen? If so, you have time, slow down, chill, think about it before taking any drastic actions. ^^'
Thirdly, recite the dua these kind people have provided you, and insha'allah your thoughts and emotions about Islam will become clearer, if nothing makes sense to you anymore...well...it's up to you to MAKE it make sense! Do your own individual research, find out about Islam in your own time, not by parents or over-excited friends. Again, take your time. =D
Fourthly, I myself don't listen to Islamic recitations either. If I don't understand it, why should I listen to it? I think reading a translation of it, being able to understand it, and take it in is better. ^^ Again, my own research. Plus, it isn't compulsory for you to listen to it, so discard that thought from your mind right now, k? =D
Finally, the fact that you've '...changed a lot, not only to him, but many other people from here...' - SO? Seriously, SO WHAT. Let me tell you something sister, last year? Yeah, I was as ignorant as a slug, I didn't pray, I hated wearing the hijab, I hated my parents, the people surrounding me, my family, I hated my house, I was sickened at everything, I hated reading the qu'ran, prefering to listen to music instead. And d'you know what I have to say about that? Astaghfirullah, Allah forgive me! Anyone can change, I understand that you may have seemed to change for the worse (in these people's eyes) but who says that this isn't just the beginning of something brilliant? You, confused, can go and search out your answers on Islam and find things you never knew before, things to awe, amaze and astound you! Okay, you argue points on Islam, but if you argue these points, it's better! Because then (insha'allah) someone will show you the right path, and you would have learnt something! It's better than what most people do, following like zombies, and just keeping their negative thoughts to themselves till they eventually blast.
Sister, you must understand, Islam isn't about pressure, it's about our love to Allah and if we can show our dedication to Him for creating us. We must pray namaz out of LOVE, not because someone came up to you and told you that you were satan. Try to understand allah, read the translation of the qu'ran instead of the Arabic one first, honey clear out your mind!
You are in my thoughts, Rania.
Praying for you, Az~ EDIT: IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO BE 'POSSESSED' BY SATAN ANYWAYS!!! You can only be possessed by Jinns, all Satan can do is TEMPT you to do wrong - it's you're choice whether you do what he says or not. Jinns don't give you a choice though. ^^ (I can't BELIEVE I never thought of that before >_>) ☻/ /▌ / Az says hello!~
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity,
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity...
