Q3. How do you know when a door is closed by God?
As I told you, you will not have peace about this way. When you ask many people, they will not be comfortable about this way. As I told you, God is not the author of confusion. God will send you certain signs or verses or messages, assuring you that this is not the way. When you try to knock on this door or to pursue it, you will find may challenges.
So, when you put all these things together, then you will know that this door is not for you. It is closed.
—H.E. Metropolitan Youssef, How to Know the Will of God
