- In this video I will share my religious back story, the timeline leading up to me reverting, and what made finally choose Islam.
This video was very vulnerable for me to create because Islam is truly my safe place that I feel no one can infiltrate & it's scary to open up about such a personal thing, BUT if my story can give someone a new perspective & teach them some things about Islam, then I am happy :)
Please feel free to ask any questions if there are some things I can clarify, and I would also love any ideas for what I can share next about my journey.
This is a safe place for a religious discussion, as a reminder it's important to always respect out brothers and sisters 🩷
Thank you so much for watching, Inshallah I'll see you in the next one!

I grew up Muslim. My mom was raised Christian and for reasons similar to yours chose Islam before I was born. I’m not the perfect Muslim but Islam is the only religion I have ever truly connected with. I love how you did not bash any other religion and just said your truth about how you found your journey towards your peace Allhamdulilah, may life bring you nothing but blessings and peace 🩷
Mashallah for your connection to Islam❤ may God bless us both with peace & blessings 😊

I grew up as a Muslim, but reverts are always something like a role model for me. It fascinates me so much, the way you found the truth besides the fact that you grew up in a non-muslim family. All the struggles you go through within yourself, within your family, maybe losing them or losing friends. And yet you continue on your path. It's really fascinating and I'm pretty sure, that the reward will be great in this dunya and in Akhira insha Allah.
Well said! and so true!
This is a poem I made long time ago when I reverted. All I can say is take it slowly.
STEP BY STEP
Welcome to Islam.
Take it one by one.
Every step forward is winning,
every step backward is learning.
So stay focus and never stop walking.
Allah only count your steps and intention,
the result is up to Him alone.
Beautiful!❤
very beautiful
Beautiful poem, Ma Shaa Allah
Very beautiful poem may Allah swt bless you ❤

Assalaamu alaikum Quai, it's wonderful to see you embracing your reality. I submitted to AL Islam in 1974 when I was 22 years old. At 72 years old in June, because of AL Islam I still feel and think like that 22yr old 50 yrs ago. It never stops being intellectually exciting. Never stop developing yourself by learning more and more every day. Especially the Qur'an and the history of our Prophet. Reading is the best method to grow and flourish.
Assalaam Alaikum, my dear sister in Deen. I too reverted to Islam from the JW Faith. I was born into that faith, even was appointed as a ministerial servant, but Alhamdulillah Been a Muslim now for 14 years and I truly thank Allah for his guidance and blessings bestowed. May Allah keep you upon the straight path and Ramadan Mubarak!
What made you leave JW ? And what attracted you to Islam ? I’m just curious ☺️
unbelievable. You turn your back on the redeemer God provided, to carve your own path to redemption from original (Adamic) sin. You understood nothing.
😂😂@@93castle really? I would wish you to dig more.
@@halimasauzande2514 This is serious. Where would you suggest I dig?
@@93castledidn't God say we must not judge for you too be judged as well
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with reverting to Islam. I’m currently in the research phase right now, and I’m dipping my toes into fasting for Ramadan for the first time. Your story is very helpful to hear 😊
This is one reason muslim women wear hijab. Muslim ppl believe it is protection for society/woman.
As they cover their beauty it makes it more important for them to develop their personality, morals and intellect, to be defined by.
This makes them pleasant to talk to and hold real conversations around shared values, beliefs and long-term life goals that are also deep and transcend in nature.
It prevents ppl getting arrogant and getting a superiority complex based on superficial trates.
Keeps ppl down to earth, modesty. Trys to prevent self entitlement and Princess complex.
It trys to prevent the commercialisation/weaponising of "beauty", by it not being a publicly displayed and traded commodity/currency.
Trys to give women a break from having to compete with each other on just beauty, in open public. That can cause feelings of jealousy.
Helps to try to prevent an army of simps and street pestering. As her beauty is for HER and the special people SHE chooses in her life.
Helps to try to prevent insecurities trying to maintain unrealistic and unsustainable beauty standards, that are forever changing and expensive to uphold.
This can cause mental issues in people and the sense of constant judgement and body shaming from people that don't know you or care about your long-term good.
Peace
Stay focused and keep searching in a step-by-step way. You will be there.
Thank you so much for your support. Ramadan Mubarak 🌙 ❤
@@jfarmer911 you're welcome. Ramadan Mubarak
May Allah bless you & your loved ones with success, happiness & prosperity in this life & the hereafter 🤲
My sister in Islam may Allah increase your faith and make the journey easy for you, I pray everyday is beautiful day for you sister
I’m really happy for I became Muslim Jan 27, 2023
I love that for you. May Allahu SWT make it easy for us all
One cult to another 😭🤡
Alhamdulilah, so lovely to hear your account. ❤ I was also a former Jehovah Witness. I'm so grateful that Allah brought me to his deen.
One cult to another cult doesn’t mean ur in the right 😭 research more about islam quran and hadith 😭 not a book from god
Welcome back to Islam my sister, may Almighty Allah guide your steps
_Asalaamu Alaykum_ I'm so inspired by you! As one who was born into Islam, I find it very star struck by those who take the leap back to Islam based upon truth. I pray that you achieve and maintain peace, happiness, and success; in this life and in the next.
I have similar sorry as yours I just reverted to Islam. I was born in the JW. Faith for 27 years but finally am so at peace ryt now as a revert Muslim
As salaamu alaikum wa rahmantul Allah wa barakatu dear sister i enjoyed your video i too was raised JW and then converted to Islam which is quite easy due to so many similarities between the two also when digging deep there are connections al hamdu Allah im greatful to Islam because ot was my road to finding my true self and purpose and ultimately reverting to my true ancestral traditions may Allah and your ancestors keep guide and bless you Ramadan Mubarak
i am very happy for you from the bottom of my heart, seriously i want more western people to accept islam so that we can pray togather in macca and perform hajj
The way you speak and what you say reflects how intelligent you are 💓 So happy for you Allahumma Barik
I love the part when you said that you don't face any social pressure as a Muslim where you need to conform to be a Muslim. It resonates with me growing up as a born Muslim in a secular society like Singapore. One thing is that, while Islam is a one of the major religion in Singapore, this is somewhat a liberal country where you are free to practice Islam and not having societal pressure.
And like you, I take it as a blessing that being a Muslim Singaporean, God had bestowed me with His Bounty of freedom. The only thing that I have to think about is my accountability as a good person in general. And only He knows what's in my heart. Yet being a flawed human being, I too am given the choice of free will in that the gift of logical mind it's up to me to do the right thing.
Masha allah 💕 may allah keep you steadfast and guide all your loved ones 💖🤲
oh beautiful sister you most welcome in community of Islam congratulations from India
Yayyyy i got a new sister, welcome to islam sis i really like how you knew that Quran never changed ! And it is a claim in the Quran itself that god will preserve it cause it is the last message of god to us , ilysmmm u look so cute and girlyyy i love your calm voice and your style in hijab i never saw it before and the colors omggg, brown and biege looks great on you , your sister from yemen💗💗💗
Really I am pleased and surprised to see a Jehovah's Witness accepting Islam. I see it as difficult and impossible however to you it is possible. Congratulations on your accepting of Islam uninfluenced by any social pressure or any pressure; but a plain wish to worship God
May Allah bless your journey in Islam. It's truly a gift to understand and to be a part of this faith.
Alhamdullilah! May Allah continue enabling you to "Express Your Journey in Such a Clear, Loving and All Embracing Manner"! I thoroughly enjoyed your sharing and Pray it "Opens the Minds of Other", especially young people like yourself, who have so much to Offer!

I love that you’re not feeling any social pressures to practice Islam. May Allah keep you steadfast on the religion 🤲🏾🤍 thank you so much for sharing your story 🥺 can you also share which Quran you’re reading?? I grew up Muslim but I really struggle with the understanding the old English translation
Ma shaa Allah
Alhamdulilah
Welcome To Islam sister🥰
Masha Allah ❤ proud of your 21 year old self! Welcome to the deen !
Ma sha' Allah, may Allah strengthen your faith and guide us all.
Salaamu alaikum to all
I think it's absolutely incredible how you already understand these things about Islam that I have always felt like a lot of Muslims I meet don't really get. Allah really does guide the heart He wishes.
Another thing this proves is that we as Muslims make mistakes(and seek repentance from Allah everyday) but Islam is perfect.
So please follow Islam and not Muslims.
MashaAllah welcome to Islam sister may Allah Make it easy for all of us and keep as close to him ❤😊 and may God make this journey easy for you and for all of us.
I have a similar story, I love this 🩵
Ma sha Allah, may Allah, swt, keep you on His path dear sister and give you many blessings
asalamu alaikum sister! may Allah continue to guide you and bring you closer to Him always. listening to you speak makes me feel like we would be great friends! im also a revert as of 3 years and Allah swt absolutely changed my life. my small advice to is to always come back to the Quran and you’re relationship with God. i hope Allah swt makes your path easy and increases our knowledge in Islam, ameen.
Wow journey sister... Thank you for sharing your story... I wish you the best reward from Allah..❤❤
Mashallah sister, I know that it’s Ramadan but you’re beautiful, I pray for you to stay blessed.
0:02 haven’t watched this yet, but I’m so glad I found this channel. Your situation mirrors mine. For me something that put me off be8ng a JW (I was brought up as one) was the constant changes.
Masha Allah, May Allah continue to guide you and grant you your heart desires
I’m so happy I found this video. I was raised Jehovah’s Witnesses and recently became Muslim. So this is very relatable …❤
I seek refuge in God from the cursed satan in the name of God the most merciful the most compassionate . I really appreciate your purity of faith... jazak Allah khair for your beautiful words. Your words were the most genuine words I have heard after so long .
I pray that you find all that Islam has to give. I hope you find the inner peace that comes with understanding how faith works. I hope that you understand how Allah drives us to happiness here and in the hereafter. Salam alaikum, new sister.
Welcome to Islam sister ❤
May Allah protect you and grants you steadfastness.
may allah keep you steadfast sister subhan Allah how Allah chose you out of anyone else genuinely happy for you even tho I don’t know but nothing makes me happier than seeing people worshiping their one creator and accepting the truth🩷
Ma's ha allah congratulations to be a Muslims Allah bless you Aameen.

I fully listen to your testimony. God bless u dear
You spoke of personal relationship and connection with God, yet also that God is away from everything while being high up there. Other points too, which I'll like to discuss with and ask you, Godwilling.
Mashallah may Allah continue to bless you :)
MashaAllah! Barakallahu Feeki...
Mashallah. Allahummma barik. Congratulations and welcome. 🎉
Sister you are very lucky to have the religion of Islam.
Mashallah, you are such a smart girl. Good for you. Hopefully this will rub off on the people around you.
I can relate sis. This is Emmanuela from pip. I grew up Jehovah's Witness with my grandparents. I also had some family and friends which were Muslim and JW.
In my 6th grade year after officially moving to live with my parents in the states I became Athiest. I questioned my belief in God and dealt with some sins that made me doubt if God was real and if he was whether he would forgive me or not. I was a sinner.
I had a void in my heart, to find my identity or feel thag void up, i turned to things such as having the best grades, alcohol, sexual immorality etc. None of this did fill up the void that I was having.
Times past, during covid something changed. I went through a tough time and left my parents house. My aunt is a Christian, pentecostal. She prays with her kids every night before bed. She invited me to pray with her. Reluctantly I agreed to but when I finally closed my eyes, I said "God I don't know if you are real but...." idk what else I said.
But the next moment I felt his peace that surpasses all understanding over me. For the 1st time I felt his peace and presence. He had been there the whole time..I had yet to know..
He also showed me Jesus Christ the way, the truth and the life. He is the only way to heaven to the Father. He is the son of God.
Man could not stop sinning. Al have sinned and fallen short of the glory of the Lord.
Before Jesus we had to make atonement for sin. There was no guarantee that any of us will make it to heaven because we had all fallen short. The blood of goats and sacrifices could not save us actually, it was very temporary. So Abba Father God sent his one and only begotten son, he took the wrath of God that we deserve for our sins on the cross and that anyone who believes in him will not perish but shall have everlasting life.
Through faith in him then we can actually truly follow the law of God. Without Jesus we are nothing. I got to know abiut the grace of God through Jesus Christ. That it is not by my works that I am saved but through faith, believing in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This is just to share my story. I became a Christian and I was blessed to know that I cannot do anything to please God or get to heaven because my own strength constantly fails me but God gave mercy and grace to me. He gives this to me through my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
I am blessed to hear your testimony and continue being a light. Don't give up on God cause he won't give up on you.Jesus loves you and died and rose again for your sins.
Jesus (Peace be upon him) Is not God nor did he die for anyone's sins, No where in the bible does it ever call Jesus as God directly or indirectly. There are absolutely tons of video's to make you question the origin of Pauls Christianity and so many intellectual arguments to prove the false Trinity. Your post was another brainwashed (Jesus loves you) indoctrination message. You said at the start of your comment that you closed your eye's and prayed to know if God exists and then you stopped, Rather Ask God Almighty to guide to the truth away from polytheism to pure monotheism, ask with a sincere heart.
Thank you for sharing this testimony. I was looking for messages from Christians to shed the Truth and Good News of Jesus Christ 🫶🏾
Masha Allah Sis Welcome ❤
May Allah grant you eternal peace and happiness !
Loved this ❤
welcome sis! love from Bangladesh
Somebody said Muslim fasting is easy because we eat breakfast but only misses lunch
And I said yes! Allah has made Islam easy for us
The Glorious Qur'an in chapter 3 verse 286 says:
"Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear…”
No Sheikh or Imam can increase the number of days (fasting) or extend the period beyond sunset.
It's just 29-30 days in a year, other ones are voluntary
And It's not only our fasting that's made easy
Even our way of worship is made easy for us
A Muslim can worship in any mosque
And If you can not find water to perform ablution, Allah permits use of sand
Furthermore, any Muslim that can not stand to pray due to circumstances can also do so while sitting and even in sleeping positions
Our Zakaat was made easy, it's just 2.5% of ones wealth per annum provided you're not indebted to anyone
Yes! 2.5% per year not monthly
And if you are to marry in Islam, just get both parents or representatives and conduct the program in less than 5 minutes, you're done
Every other ceremony is man-made.
Burial in Islam is most easiest.
No need to start borrowing to give your parents or loved ones unnecessary befitting burial.
Once the person is proclaimed dead, get white clothes, bathe the dead, offer prayer and burry the dead. Finish, nothing else
To name your child is also easy, once the child is born, name him/her and...
...if you can afford sheep, buy and if unable to do so, forget it. No need to borrow
If you are to lend or borrow money, do so without collecting interest on loan.
And it's forbidden to hoard goods with the aim of re-selling when the price goes up
Just imagine if these are practice globally today
And if anything happened whether good or bad, just link it to Allah and not anybody
Islam is made easy, to become a Muslim
Just make sahada that "there's no gods but God and Muhammad (SAW) is His messenger"
Then know and practice the five pillars of Islam and believe only in the six things Islam enjoins us to believe. Nothing else.
These are just a few of the beauty of Islam.
Islam is beautiful, I'm proud to be a Muslim.
#Ramadan 🌙 Mubarak .
mashallah. could you do a video on how you did your hijab like that?
May Allah guide you and protect you from bad things insallah
Mashallah Allah is the only Mighty God that has always been communicating but they corrupted the script ! Islam is the final version of of all the script ! May Allah keep you steadfast in this beautiful way of life
Mashallah may Allah bless you and your family.
Hey Sis, thanks for sharing! I am a Christian and just stumbled on your video that I found very interesting. I have questions that I would love to discuss with you as I am learning more about the Islam faith. I wish there was a way to connect
Welcome sis, if you are looking for a sisterhood I'm here for any questions or assistance; Ramadan mubarak! 🥰💜
Jazaks lahu kheir
Call other sisters to do the same to all new reverts. Unfortunately I am a man will try to do same.
Wow Shukr To Allah.Lovely Story
Well done you chose the true even me i am a muslim now!
