My king wasn’t directly attacked (my bishop was protecting it from white’s bishop) I didn’t move my king or my rook. However I want able to castle my king ( I was blacks). Why does this happen ?

when you tried castling, would your king have crossed  a line of check ?   If so, that is not allowed.   Otherwise show us the moves of your game and where you attempted to castle.

Sounds like your king might have had to cross a square controlled by white.  Your king can never put himself in check.  Everything else seems to be OK.  Let me get you the article on castling...

This is one of the things you can’t castle: when you move you king!
