I am 15 years old and a practicing Muslim, and I have been one all my life. I recently decided to become more religious and start reading the Quran more often, but the more I read, the weaker my belief in Allah became, I am sickened to say now that I no longer believe in the existence of God, I still pray and do everything a Muslim does but when I pray I feel like I am just moving and nothing else.

I can not help but to have these feelings and I came here looking for someone to convince me that God exists. I know that if there is a God, it is Allah. But here are the reasons for my sickening feelings:

The Quran always says, that the mountains were placed on the Earth to stabilize it, but this is 100% incorrect scientifically.

You're wrong. Mountains might be a by product of the tectonic movements, but without the mountains, the surface would continue to slide.

I'm gonna delete your other questions as those can easily be answered from googling the web.

If God exists why can't it be proved, it is NOT my fault that I don't believe in GOD, what is the point of sending your message through humans and making them convince people, if you are convinced you go to heaven if not hell.

I feel soooo horrible writing this, someone please help and convince me that god exists.

How do you explain anything at all that is beyond our universe? If you (and the whole mankind) can't even explain about our universe (black hole for example), can you expect we have the capability to know something that's beyond our universe? If we can't even detect an angel for example, you think we have the capacity to actually see Allah

Who is not confined to space and time?

Don't be so frustrated. There are many passages in Quran that you can study to verify that Quran is indeed from Allah

.

For example,
no where in any document found on Earth (and nothing about it from the Greek either) that the pyramids were built using baked clay. Those were information from more than 3000 years ago, and yet Quran revealed it to us. If you notice, almost all the revelations about science and archaeology were directed towards the non-believers (as if it's confirmed from the beginning that these non-believers will be the ones to find what's been revealed to our Prophet

).

[Quran 28.38] And Pharaoh said to his people: "I have not known a god for you other than myself; so Haman, light me a fire to bake clay so that I could build a rise high enough, maybe I see Moses' god whom I think is a liar."

Another good example would be the City of Iram, the City of Thousand Pillars.

You should also read about the prophetic hadiths. How did the Prophet

could tell accurately of the events that were about to happen to the Muslim ummah, some of which you could see from the latest events, including the Arab Spring?

I guess that's all for now. If you have other question, feel free to post them here.

many brothers and sisters will help you out.
