I noticed that quite a few people here are not raised in Islam and accepted the faith. I'd like for this to be a discussion on the experiences of converts and for veteran muslims to give advice. May Allah's blessings be upon you all! biggrin

Well this is wrong , because Islam isn't only a religion it's a way of life , if the Muslims became true Muslims everything will be easy for them .

Yes, Islam is a way of life. However, those who enter this new way of life all have different expirences. Things won't necessarily be easier, specially in the beginning. Think of it as graduating high school and going to college. Does that make sense?

May Allah bless you.

Please be careful with your words. As what you're saying now implies that any revert who does not have it easy must not be a true muslim. Please don't say that =) It is not up to us to judge other muslims.

Allah (swt) says in the Qur'an:
Quote:
Every soul shall have a taste of death: and We test you by evil and by good by way of trial. to Us must ye return. (021:035, translation by Yusuf Ali)


Every soul, revert or not, will be tested with trials.

He also says:
Quote:

Or do ye think that ye shall enter the Garden (of bliss) without such (trials) as came to those who passed away before you? they encountered suffering and adversity, and were so shaken in spirit that even the Messenger and those of faith who were with him cried: "When (will come) the help of Allah?" Ah! Verily, the help of Allah is (always) near! (002:214, translation by Yusuf Ali)

Allah (swt) is always near, and I think perhaps especially for a revert there are many tests and obstacles to overcome, such as the responses from family members, friends or their society. Similar to those who are born in a non-practising muslim family but decide to practice. They may encounter resistance as well. But if they have faith in Allah (swt) and work to please him, he will insha'Allah make it easy for them.

I found it very difficult when I accepted Islam as well. I was, for example, very afraid of going out with the hijab, and it took me some time. However, when I did, Allah made it easy for me Alhamdulillah, despite some of the negative reactions.

Each and every one of us encounters trials, difficulties and problems in their life, and their faith will show through the way they deal with them and if you bear them with patience, you will be rewarded insha'Allah =)
