I stopped going to the mosque as I noticed when I attend regularly I feel a deviation in my heart and I feel lost in my Deen. The mosque is one where mawlid, urs, etc. is celebrated. It happens when I’m out of town for 2-3 days. Then my heart gets settled again and I know again what is good and what is not. Please advise me.
