Prayer Request: Very Insecure about height

Request:

Asalaam Alaykum Dear Shaykh,

I am very insecure about my height. I am only 5’6, which is quite short in America. Everywhere I go, I am just focused on observing other peoples height compared to mine. I am 24 years old and have not grown since age 15, which eliminates any hope for my growing taller.

Do you think it is possible for me to grow taller through the dua of a shaykh? Either this, or I need a dua to become “blind” to caring so much about height.

I would also like to become a police officer, where having a strong height and body is very beneficial. I’m quite physically weaker than most guys also, even though I go to the gym regularly.

Salaam Alaykum Thank you for your guidance.
