Hi, Ahmed.
You may be switching the < / > signs. When the p-value is less than the significance level, the null hypothesis is rejected and viceversa. Let me know if this doesn't help so I can keep assisting you.
Best,

We can automate the answer :) decision rule:
accept if : P > alpha
reject if : P< alpha
