- My Journey to Islam [Part 2/3] - My Turning Points
I know in my heart that I want to accept Islam but I am hesitant.
What is stopping me and how am I to over come this?
As I move on from seeking validation to preparing my loved ones of my reversion to Islam, are they or arent they supportive?
Following this there will be a part 3, so keep a look out but for now please enjoy this and dont forget to share this video if you feel this might help someone in their journey.

Salaam Sister...I am a Brisbane revert (ex-Anglican) and have been Muslim for over 30 years. At the time of my reversion I heard it all...”you’re brainwashed”...”its just a faze”...”you don’t know what you’re getting in to”...The best teacher for the nay-sayers is YOU..be consistent in your practise and the negativity will melt away. I lost every friend I had...but the family eventually came around...Alhamdulillah
Wow sister, looks like you have scarificed a lot. Allah bless you.
May Allah reward you with the highest stations in Jannah for whatever you sacrifice for your Faith, ameen
You lost friends but got a family sister. We are one big Ummah as muslims!
Wow awesome
As some on who borned Muslim, i envy to you 😭😭
I reverted to Islam a year back. Salam from Germany 🇩🇪. Allah guides whom he wills. Subhan Allah. Alhumduolilah.
Welcome to Islam brother ❤️
MashAllah brother Herold. My wife reverted 23 years ago in US>
Ich hoffe, es ging gut bei dir. Ich bete für dich, dass du Paradies betrittst.
Mashallah subhanallah, welcome!
Mashaalah brother. Welcome ❤️
As a Muslim in a dark time in my life, I have found myself lacking in putting in effort to be a better a Muslim but then I came across ur journey and it’s really changed me for the better! I really believe that I came across this video for a reason. Thank u for sharing ur story 💗
My Dua for you, give me a shout bro if you want to bro, we can perhaps chat. Allaha will fix everything, dnt you worry, just pray and make Dua.
SAMMMME ! I was bron muslim and i don't know i'm slacking so much and i see my converted friends that are doing so good and are happy. I feel sometimes unhappy and weirdly after sometimes i started to think may be because i don't know who i am. I just bought a holy book again and i will start to read. I used to pray etc do good and what made me feels good when i was doing is having a meaning in my life that is more than juste AH i need to pass this exam etc... And a routine aswell: was waking up at better hours sleeping also, i was eating at the same time everyday i was HEALTHY. So i would say not only it helps inside your spirit but also your body! I hope i get better step by step i hope Allah gives you what you need !

Salam sister
I reverted to Islam 10 years ago. It is a personal journey. It took me 2 years to put my hijab on.
Thats perfectly fine sister.. every one takes their time.. yours was 2 years some one maye take less or more... thats perfectly fine.. may Allah bless you with a bright future ahead
Masha Allah welcome to the sisters & brothershod , the same here I am Jonathan from Amsterdam reverted to Islam last year during the Ramadhan on the 21st day , I did fasting before I reverted . Finally I found a faith and peace after searching for 4 years alhamdulillah
Mashallah! That is truly amazing. Alhamdulilah that Allah guided you and

wa alaikum salaam. Thankyou so much for your kindess and support brother. Great advice. I was going all a bit quick and taking on to much as the start and i did overwhelm myself (ill talk about that in part 3) so I have taken a small step back and slowed down and now I am really enjoying the process again :) May allah bless you in this life and the next.
@@theunconventionalaussie7279 Aamiin, you too sister; may Allah blesses and guides us all. I was pretty much like your husband on my religious journey; I embraced Islam (again) through my own research, not because I was born into a Muslim family. From my experience, after I regain my faith in the Deen, the most influential things to me are: 1. The daily salat, 2. Reading and understanding the sirah of our Prophet SAW. I found it helps me a lot in understanding and practicing Islam when I get to know more about Prophet Muhammad SAW. Wassalamu'alaikum sister...
Salaamu-alaikum brother, Inn Shaa Allah must be in three separate words otherwise it means something else... Allah (SWT) knows best. Peace.

Your eyes are glowing as you talk about taking the shahada. So special

As an irreligious person raised in an evangelical Christian home, I'm very impressed by your personal courage. What you've done is a very difficult thing, but you've stuck to what you truly believe, and that's amazing! Much love to you and your family.
I dont know how she did it, i wish i have some of that courage for my journey
@@CorvetteTeaser As she even brought up, change should not happen over night. Even if this is your first sign of Islam, the world awaits u with knowledge everywhere on Islam. It’s important to figure out what u r ready for and when u r ready for the next step. There is no rush and no need to compare ur journey with other reverts. InshAllah, everything will fall into place with the trust in Allah. If u r lacking support, as a Muslim I am here for u 😊🤍

Isaiah 9:2,6 KJV. THE PROPHECY CENTURIES BEFORE HIS BIRTH
The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined. [6] For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:7 KJV

John 1:10-12,14 KJV
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. [11] He came unto his own, and his own received him not. [12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

[10] The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. [11] I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
John 11:25-26 KJV

Revelation 3:20 KJV
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
To complement and stand with .... is a sign of a Noble Soul
To anyone struggling with being different in society because of their faith, remember that the Prophet of Allah ﷺ said “Indeed, Islam began as something strange, and it will return to being strange just as it began, so glad tidings of paradise be for the strangers.”
O my god that's insane. I was in a horrible mood today and was thinking to myself, maybe I wouldn't have had these horrible things happen to me in life if I didn't stand out so much in my hijab. Your comment is a literal god-send. I feel comforted.
@@maplesap Wow I’m so glad to hear that! It always helps to remember that we weren’t supposed to belong to this world anyways. Allah is Al-Waarith, everything is from Him and everything shall return to Him. Everything belongs to Him and with Him is our true belonging 💓
@@maplesap I wear the hijab too! please don't feel any type of way :(
the hijab protects us in a beautiful way and enlightens the beauty of every woman wearing it.
the sacrification we make in this world (hiding our beauty for the sake of Allah), will be rewarded 10x in the Jannah.
Keep your head up Queen, you got this! Just remind yourself you're doing this for the sake of Allah, and you're not alone
جزاك الله خير جميل جدا قراءة الأحاديث النبوية با الإنجليزية ❤
I love how this lady is so keen about keeping family ties an relations with friends. In my opinion she made necessary lobbying. This is wise. I expect a video in the future with the title " an exchristian teaching her husband his religion"
Assalamu alaikum. Thankyou for your support. Absolutley. My Family and friends are so important to me and my family in particular I prioritise them and their feelings alot. However in saying this as you will find out in my next video, I needed to find a balance between making my family happy vrs comfortable and still making sure I was doing the best thing for me. HAHA! its so funny you say that, Osman jokes with me all the time about ill know more then him soon.
Lmao
People who born to be a Muslim, I found some of them are not really appreciated the chance the god gave to them. They are not really want to learn about Islam. They fear to take part in dakwah too.
I'm a born Muslim and am still far from being a perfect one. I try little by little to be a better muslim. So, don't worry about being perfect in doing what you have to do as a muslim, especially since you are a new muslim. As long as you are going that way, you will and can do better as a practicing muslim. And may Allah will always lead us to Him. In sha Allah.
I was born Muslim as well and it’s reverts like her who actually make me appreciate being born into Islam and remind me to be a better Muslim. Us born into the religion are far from being the perfect Muslims 😊
Reading this I remembered Nouman Ali Khan said "Allah doesn't expect you to be perfect but Allah expect you to improve" :')
U cant be perfect only God is perfekt but trying your best will earn you the Love and Merci of Allah s.w.
Love your videos, yes my family 2 years in still do not accept my reversion. They thought I did it for others and not for myself. InshAllah one day. I pray for the best for you, sister!
May Allah protect n support u n bring your family to the family straight path aamiin
May Allah guide your family too
stay strong bro..
InsyaAllah
I pray your family accepts your reversion. I have heard when other reverts accept Islam their parents come around after seeing a positive change
Brother dont forget the prophets Muhammad's uncle never accepted Islam and became the enemy of his own nephew .. be patient Insha'Allah with the grace of Allah SWT if they are going to accept you they will just keep strong and keep praying as this is a test of faith for you also
I am a born Muslim from Imdia . And these revert stories keeps me inspiring when I look at the difficult choices they make compared to us who had it easy.
May Allah show us all the right path.. God bless.
Allah is your Creator, follow him! you will find peace!! He has given it to me!
Being Muslim is a healthy lifestyle. Staying away from alcohol, drugs, fasting, all have proven health benefits. Practicing gratitude 5x a day through prayer also good for mental health.
Just some of the benefits !
Staying away from fasting?
@@osman_0394 sorry didn't mean to say staying away from it
Absolutely Right..
MaShaAllah, congratulations and welcome to Islam, sister! I am a German revert to Islam and my wife is from Bangladesh. The first part of your journey came up on our suggestions - we were very intrigued and had to watch both videos back to back. Your journey was amazing and Alhamdulillah, you made the right decisions despite your internal conflicts. Looking forward to the next part 😊 Would be great to get to know your husband in one of your future videos as well! May Allah (swt) make everything easy for you, keep you on the right track and guide your family as well ❤️
P.S.: The way you talk in front of the camera is awesome, barely any cuts and no stuttering, MaShaAllah! 😁
Hi tamu 😊

So glad to know that I have a new sister in Islam, such a beautiful person. May Allah grant you more and more knowledge and faith.
“Do not lose hope, nor be sad.” Quran 3:139🤍🤍🤍

Beautiful story! Very emotional to me, because I found myself in it. You are very brave. Telling to everyone is not easy, especially your Christian mom. Mashalla.
Well done sister ... love from a fellow Aussie Muslim. ✨💕
Gosh the strength you and all the reverts have is unbelievable, subhanAllah. May Allah give the rest of the Muslims this strength. Ameen.
In today’s world we’re all struggling but I’ll use your story as an inspiration to learn more about islam thank you 🙏
Plz do
I have goosebumps sister. Eyes welling up and all. I was born into Islam and as a lot of humans, have strayed off the path. Your shahada epiphany and acceptance is so beautiful and inspiring. May Allah continue to bless you and guide you.
Assalamu Alaikum! Welcome to Islam! Thank you for sharing your story. I'm sure you've heard of them already but I find lectures by Yasmin Mogahed, Mufti Menk and Yasir Qadhi (just to name a few!) very helpful. All the very best in your journey. Kristen
I would like also to mention Noaman Ali Khan. He speaks about Qur’an and it’s hidden meanings amazingly. He amuses me whenever I watch his lectures and talks over many things related to Islam and especially Quran. He founded the Bayyinah Institute for Arabic and Qur’anic Studies after serving as an instructor of Arabic at Nassau Community College.
Expecting someone to become a "perfect" Muslim overnight is .... unrealistic. Everyone goes to personal challenges, it's a journey, and we just ask Allah to keep You and us firm and help us and be with us along the way.
May allah bless you and the sunnah of prophet Muhammad peace he upon him warm your heart
AMEEN

@alivereti ratu yes, but ur ignorant about Islam dude

This is my poem, a gift for someone just entering Islam:
STEP BY STEP
Welcome to Islam.
Take it one by one.
Every step forward is winning,
every step backward is learning.
So keep walking.
Allah only count our steps and intention,
the result is up to Him alone.
Allahu akbar
Subhanallah that's beautiful
clearn and simple msg. ALLAHU AKBAAR!!!😍 OUR CREATOR IS JUST AMAZING right?? We make mistakes and learn from it and HIS forgiveness are wide open, to talk or in silent or cry your heart out in sajda (prostratetion). I just love that empowering feeling that i can go to my CREATOR no matter what.
Christian religion they make God so spokey and needy, he kills his son for us. Whhhat!! Someone with real brain knows that's not true God.
Brother can I use your poem?

As SalamuAllakum my Sister…I reverted to Islam also by the grace of Allah. It’s truly a Blessing a country boy from Macon, Ga. Allahuakbar (God is the Greatest).
Its miraculous how the Quran speaks to us and is relevant to us in our life eventhough we live in modern times.
I am a Muslim.. I was born and raised in a Muslim Country. Hearing stories like yours story makes me think couple of thoughts. First is that you are a very brave woman for just leaving everything you believed in behind and the inner struggles you had before converting to Islam...it takes a lot of strength to do so...I really appreciate that....it is not easy at all. Second thing is that I say Alhamdullillah for being born a Muslim and not going through that struggle 😀. May Allah guide you always and guide all who are seeking the truth out there and grant us forgiveness.
I’m a born Muslim and watching these videos made me reflect on how much more I have to learn. Thank you for the reminder and I wish you all the best in your journey. May Allah ease everything for you and your family 💞
I cannot describe the emotions that overcame me after hearing about your journey. No doubt about it. Allah chooses His people. You have made me believe again that Allah knows best and that our knowledge is limited but He is limitless. May Allah keep guiding you and you may become a source of hidayah for other people. Very Very Happy to found your channel too!!!
When I heard your story, I never stopped shedding tears. Thanks for Sharing
Wow, sister, your story will help and encourage so many others to replicate your success! A very warm welcome to Islam and I wish you all the very best for you, your family and loved ones. May Allah help you and guide all of us to the right path. Amen. 🌹 lots of love from Qatar ❤️

Sister listening to u help me improve my Iman.
mA just watching you light up while talking about the shahada is amazing -- the way you describe it, i can genuinely feel how happy you were at that time
Practicing islam takes time
True and thats the beauty of it. Every person have a whole life journey to find God and every persons journey is different.
My Heart Is Just Beating So Fast.....I Just Cant Tell The Level Of Respect I Always Have And Always Will...Inshallah...For People Who Reverted To Islam....Cuz You People Remind Us The Real Meaning Of Islam....Which Is Not Only To Believe But Also Inspire Other Hearts By It.....Thank You So Much For Sharing Your Journey....It Opened My Heart Towards Islam Once More💖💖💖
This was beautiful. I was listening to this like a podcast and then tears started streaming down.
Yaaaay Mashallah .. all the love sis💜💜💜

There were so many times I just wanted to give you a big hug! Welcome to the ummah sister. As a born Muslim, I can too say it is most definitely a process that is personal. I myself only began wearing hijab this year and am trying to make small improvements in myself. One thing I've learned is deen (faith) is like a roller coaster....you have your highs and lows, but you gotta keep going forward! Best of luck on your spiritual journey because it is not always easy but definitely worth it ❤️
Masha Allah sis. Me being a born muslim, I think reverts are much more stronger Muslims because of the research it takes to actually revert to Islam. This is very motivational even for someone like me who’s a born Muslim. Thanks a lot sis. May Allah bless u and ur family. Please make Dua for me, my family and the Ummah at large Insha Allah.
You said it right

@@jayay5881 Dan Gibson the sacred city film on CZcams theres a good starting point. Islam was established further north in Arabia inbetween Syria and Iraq at a much later date than suggested during the ummayad caliphate of Abdal maliks time. The quran hadith and seerah of Muhammad are all latter day forgeries and heresay. Islam was established much later and the quran is a copy and paste of Judaism and christianity with mythical fairytales and stories. All religions are man made nonsense including the pagan arab cult better known as Islam the religion of peace

So far I’ve been able to watch part 1 & 2 of your talk and very much enjoyed the story of your journey. While I’ve always considered myself blessed to have been born into Islam, I might also have been a bit jealous of folks like yourself who find it on their own for I see that folks like me take it for granted too often. Welcome to the path, may Allah Almighty always protect and bless you and your loved ones and bring ease to your learning and to your journey, Amen! 🙏🏼
Subhan'Allah! I have tears in my eyes. May Allah make this journey easy for you. Welcome to islam and virtual hugs! 😭💕
It's amazing, i'm crying right now 😭! May Allah meet us in paradise.
Mashallah so many beautiful comments from fellow Muslims. So proud of you sister. May Allah always keep you on the straight path. Also Allah bless your daugthers ♥️🤲
SubhanAllah! you are exuding peace - your internal satisfaction and certainty with your decision is reflecting onto your face; in your demeanor. MashaAllah! Your journey is an inspiration to not only reverts or converts but to practicing and aspiring Muslims as well. May Allah's blessings be with you in this world and the next. May He give you ease and blessings at every step of this journey and the rest of your life. InshaAllah. Ameen
Great and inspiring . Be the best you can be . I love your phrase . I am sure you are aware enough that you might receive diffrent instruction on what is right and wrong . The most important thing , that you be the best you can be . Do not worry a lot about other people comments,notes , or instructions as long as you will be the best version of you and always be good towords others.
Happy for you .
Thank you for this series it really reminds me that the most valuable thing in my life is Islam and one our main responsibilities as Muslims is to spread the message of Islam in any way we can as the prophet peace be upon him said "Convey (my teachings) to the people even if it were a single sentence" (Sahih al-Bukhari 3461), and even though you're a new revert to Islam you're still doing a better job at this than me - i'm a born muslim -, May Allah bless you and your family.
You’re just like my sister, and I feel like want to hug you🥰
Watching your videos are so cathartic and calming. Thank you for sharing about your life journey.
May Allah bless you and yiour family with all the goodness in this world and hereafter. Your story is an eye opener for me, as being a born Muslim, how easy it is to ignore the internal struggles that you encountered throughout your journey to `islam. while we were blessed with the guidance of our elders. Hearing you really brought me to tears.
Subhanallah Alhamdulillah Allahuakbar.. Welcome to Islam dear sister. May Allah bless you always. Aameen
From Malaysia.. Alhamdulillah
It makes me really emotional listening to this. Much love. xx
This video is too emotional, happy tears come out of my eye, especially the last part. May Allah grant us all jannah.
Same! This video really made me emotional becuz as someone born and raised Muslim, sometimes I catch myself taking it for granted.
Mashallah subhanallah, so happy to hear your story. Your story is so relatable in your questions about culture and family. I'm still navigating those aspects, too. You don't have to get rid of your cultural stuff, you can find your own middle ground where you can feel comfortable amongst your friends and family who are not Muslim and your Muslim community. My mom is still partly in sweet denial and not fully accepting it after many years. I'm easy on her, too.
MashaAllah ❤

So happy for you !!! Stay strong !! Much love usman sounds like a great person wish u guys the best
Mashallah sister. May Allah guide you and your family more each day.
It's amazing how honest you are with yourself and how deep you are in your self-reflection. Thank you for sharing your wonderful story, sister.
Salaam :) Your journey resonates so much with me sis. I’m a born muslim but I can’t stress enough, faith comes in waves. It’s how we grow, understand, build our knowledge. It’s how we appreciate. Little step by little step. Every step even if it’s a little one is such a huge progress in our imaan. That wisdom lays with The Almighty alone but with time you’ll realise just how much it glorifies you, your life, your family. To this day, every time I ride another wave of increasing my knowledge, it changes my life for the better in countless ways. The goosebumps you feel when you realise that The Almighty had your back all along. You my friend are incredibly lucky, your test has led you to discover your imaan via a path that wasn’t necessarily straight forward. You weren’t born a Muslim but my goodness are you an incredible one. And so incredibly lucky, He chose you to take this path. You’ll achieve so much in this life, just wait and see, I hope we’re able to witness it. P.s. listening to Yasmin Mogahed, was a turning point for me. I had knowledge, I knew the requirements of my religion but I can honestly say there was a huge gap in really understanding the why. She opened up my mind to understand our relationship with The Almighty. Who is He and what is our purpose. I recommend her podcasts, she did some in Ramadan a good few years ago but they were just magnificent. You’ll understand when you listen inshaAllah. I don’t know how to explain x
You are amazing and helping me. I’m in a situation with my girlfriend almost exactly like the one you were in.
My gf is American and i was born Muslim and I got into my faith more in the past year and I’m trying to see if she’s willing to be Muslim. We’ve been together 7 years since college and it’s my dream she does what you did.
I will show her your videos and hopefully it will be in an inspiration.
I don’t want to put pressure on her tho so Inshallah Allah guides her where she is meant to and inshallah that means to be Muslim with me.
You are amazing and brave and you’re doing so much good for Allah and Islam with these videos. May Allah put you in the highest of jannah and all of us and our loved ones Inshallah.
Surely you can be a Muslim if you want, and she should be allowed to choose her own faith?
@@sarahlaing1688 there’s far too much risk in that. My children deserve to have the best guidance and Islam is that. And the mother is the most important person in a family and the most influential on the kids. She needs to be able to teach them those values. Literally every Christian family we know isn’t religious and her family is decimated from a lack of guidance. Adultery, the parents not caring about the kids or where they go, divorce, not caring about the family unit, alcoholism, is rampant in her family and the Christian culture surrounding her family.
My family snd all of our friends have none of that and it’s because we properly followed Islam. Leaving the opportunity open for my kids to fall influence to that is not something I can risk.
@@onaaap Religion has nothing to do with raising your kids properly, there's no reason you can't raise a well grounded child with good values without religion. You can make the choice not to commit adultery etc on your own, no-one needs to read a set of rules in a book to know that it's immoral.
Ultimately, I just don't think it's fair that it's always the women who have to change their lifestyle and beliefs in this situation.
@@sarahlaing1688 that’s literally the point of religion though. To give you guidance. You’ll never be perfect but having those values instilled in you and believing in God from a young age (if taught correctly) are proven to keep you from doing harmful behaviors to yourself and others. You focus on community, trying to be better, not doing drugs or alcohol, etc. All those values were derived from religion. Without believing there’s a higher purpose for your behavior, it’s really really likely you start behaving poorly. Even ppl who claim to be atheist derive there benevolent behavior from religion. If there truly was no god you aren’t beholden to any form of behavior, you can do whatever you want. It takes an extraordinary person to not do fall into poor behavior if they believe that and that’s taking a chance. I’ve seen far too many kids not be taught religion correctly and they fall into drug use, alcohol abuse, rampant sex etc. And the more we forget the true teachings of god the more we fall into that as a society.
And it doesn’t always have to be the woman, I’ve seen the reverse plenty of times. The difference between other religions and Islam is that it is usually more devout, it requires actual change in behavior to become Muslim. Most other modern religions don’t even have you practice. They just convert as a formality.
She’s free to do what she wants but we’ve talked out the tenets of her religion and mine and how our families and friends have implemented them and even she knows that, in this context, Islam has done a lot more good for us than her religion of lack there of has done for her.
@@onaaap Religion began in a time before there were advanced societies, it isn't necessary now. If you feel that belonging to a religion gives your life purpose, then that is your choice. However it is not your place to decide what gives other people purpose in their life. If they don't believe in God and just want to enjoy their life and live a hedonistic lifestyle, then that is their choice. The same goes for raising children. You can guide them and raise them with certain values, however what they do as an adult is not the choice of their parents. No one has to follow a religion just because their parent believes in God.
This lifestyle you don't agree with can obviously produce decent adults, since you are in a relationship with one. To be honest, I just don't think you should have entered a relationship with someone who isn't a Muslim if this is such a problem for you. Religion puts a lot of restriction on a person's life, and is a big ask to give things up for a God they don't believe is real.
May Allah’s peace and blessing be upon you and your family
It brought tears to my tears hearing your Shahada story
It refreshes my Iman(faith) as a born Muslim
All the reverts in my eyes are more more special as they go through lot of reading, research, hardship and sacrifices (specially with the immediate family you were born and raised with) unlike most of the born muslims who take their faith and religion for granted
May ALLAH give us all the guidance to the right path
In Sha Allah(God willing) may ALLAH provide you and all the reverts greatest rewards in this world and the hereafter. Amen!
It brought smile to my face watching you and your experience on reverting to Islam. Thank you!
May Allah Bless you on this beautiful journey. Aameen.
Assalamualaykum sis Natasha ma sha Allah your story really touches me .May Allah make it easy for all of us to worship him .
Wow! Amazing. Frank, sincere and well detailed. You made me live your experience moments as it was me!
Waiting forward the next videos.
Alhamdulilah! Thankyou so much for your comment and kindness. Its comments like yours that help motivate me and help me push through the negativity and hate out there. InshaAllah my next and final part of my journey will be out soon! After that I will be doing a video on my misconceptions about islam and the answers I found to combat these. Which I hope inshaAllah people will benefit from :)
@@theunconventionalaussie7279 I would be really interested in hearing about the misconceptions you had and how you went about resolving them. That’s the hardest part!
Assalamu Alaikum. I am a practicing Muslim and was born in a Muslim household, and I am telling you that some of the things that you spoke of in this video did not even come into my mind, MashaAllah.
May Allah make your journey soulful and beautiful, make your trials easy, make you a source of light for those around you, especially your family and friends, fill your life with happiness and grant you the bounties of the hereafter.
Ma sha Allah, I’m so happy for you. May Allah guide as all and keep us on the straight path. Ameen
MashaAllahh sister... We are here to support you through this journey all the way insha'Allah ❤️ may Allah continue to guide you through it all

Thanks again really 🤗 and may Allah give you more strength in 2021 Inshallah ❤🙏🏽🤲🏾
Mashallah!!! That is so great. Alhamdulilah!!
I'm so so glad that I have helped you in some sort of way. You say I have made your day well you just made mine. Thankyou for taking the time to comment and thankyou for your support. May Allah bless you and keep you strong!
Alhamdolillah dear, you are so honest about your feelings and also very strong. Keep it up 🤲💕
I loved your story. Alhamdulilah Allah blessed you♡
SUBHANALLAH...may ALLAH blessing you
*You are right.*
*Islam is not all about Hijab and nail polish. There are bigger things to worry about in Islam than nail polish. And then indeed there are also some Muslims who in their ignorance open flood gates of do's and don'ts in Islam on new comers. When you come across such people, put a smile on your face and politely say, I am trying.*
*Islam prefers the path of mediocracy even if you slowly move your way up years from now. Stay on the path of modesty and mediocracy and NEVER go on any extremes. Islam tests your patience and asks that you try your best within your means, and you always hope for the best, and NEVER be hopeless.*
*When a person accepts Islam, the Satan starts working on him 24/7 to revert him back into ignorance - and many new Muslims fall for it. You don't wanna be a victim of that.*
*And the trick is, stay among the company of good modest practicing Muslim sisters to fight against the whispers of Shaitan. A good company is always the best weapon against Satan.*
*For your personal journey, remember Islam demands action to support your verbal claim of Shahada. It's not just word of mouth, and a red carpet cosmic welcome is awaiting in the heavens.*
*So you start with very basics and try to do the most important things first. Start with learning basic Salah and start praying the Asar Salah (afternoon Salah) on time. This is the most important one in the daily 5 salahs, and then slowly slowly move your way up. You will be pushed back, there will be setbacks and you will miss prayers; however, the trick is, ask for forgiveness and NEVER give up.*
*Then pay zakat (Muslim Charity) if you owe any. And finally watch your dietary in-take and stay away from Pork Alcohol, and physically, stay away from Fornication. And if possible dress up with modesty. Revealing clothing simply invites more flies to hog on the sugar.*
*Be nice and be forgiving to your parents, and anyone else who deserves it (you can't be totally nice to just EVERYONE - indeed there are many scumbags among Muslims too, so watch out). But try to be patient when your faith is tested. Be honest and truthful in your day to day life matters, avoid cheating, lying deceiving etc - THAT'S what Islam is about; LIVING A LIFE OF HONESTY. You probably won't be asked whether you wore nail polish or not before wazzu - but you WILL be questioned on how did you deal with people, and how honest were you with your responsibilities?*
*So no matter how low it gets, NEVER let Satan succeed and NEVER let the light of Islam leave your heart. Always remain Muslim, no matter what happens.*
*And hopefully, we will meet our prophet (saw) on the day of judgement with glad tidings. If you feel down, ALWAYS read Surah Ad Duha (Quran chapter 93), it gives peace to hearts.*
Mashallah!! this is so amazing to read. Thankyou so much for taking the time to share it with me.
I think the point about staying in the company of other sisters who are a good influence is such great advice.
I very much appreciate it.
May Allah bless you in this life and the next.
Alhamdulillah! Congratulations on your Shahada. Loved to see these videos and I honestly found these really inspiring. Please pray for us as well that Allah bless us (Muslims by birth) with better understanding of our Religion and strengthen our Imaan. We're all in it together!
Mashallah sister so proud of you! First saw Jay Palfrey's videos.... now yours Alhamdulilah
Hope someday the brother and sister from EFdawah also interview you, and InsyaAllah you be a cause for your family Sahada
Mashallah! That would be truly amazing. InshaAllah all I want is to spread the truth about Islam and to open eyes of people who were of a similar opinion to me . I pray that Allah opens my familys hearts and guides them as he did me. Take care during these trying times. May Allah bless you!
@@theunconventionalaussie7279 here's Efdawah's email address, they openly invited any revert to join their revert group. Please join them. Very beneficial insya Allah. Efdawah.uk@gmail.com

It’s obvious that you have been through a tough journey to accept Islam, very inspiring, remember Allah hear and watch what you’ve been through and surely will stand by and support you till the end of this life and earn heaven inshallah. Stay cool and positive as you are. ... wishing you all the best my sister
Thank you for this great documentation of your journey. It would definitely help so many people that may go through this experience :)
Congrats Sis Again. Welcome home to Islam. From Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺
I don't know if you know it, but your videos are really inspirational not only to non-Muslims who have thoughts about converting to Islam, but also to us Muslims who were born believing in Islam.... Love and support to you and your family
Ma sha Allah and welcome to Islam Sister. Your accounts of your journey to Islam is so touching and very real, which should inspire those who are on the fence so to say, even for Muslims who have been following Islam since birth. The beauty of this is that you sought it yourself and even though Osman may not have been practicing initially, the fact that little things he did stirred the interest in you was Almighty Allah's way of showing you the way. May Allah bless you and your family.
Dear sister I came here from part 1 and will continue with part 3 but I just had the need to tell ya when u were talking bout ur shahada u just smiled like u have won everything what cld possible make u happy in ur life - I’m really really glad for you - don’t get anyone between u and ur connection to Allah - May Allah protect all Muslims inshallah
