salaams to all
islam is the fastest growing religion DESPITE the muslims.
our actions & behaviour are the biggest obstacle to more people accepting islam, imagine if all the muslims were righteous, how many more people would accept islam?
the problem is that we are the worst examples of what a muslim ought to be.
and Allah ta'ala knows best
jazakallah

Asalaamu alaikum. I have to admit, this comment is 100% correct. I took shahadah in Dec 2008 and since then I've seen an estimated 25 or 30 or so also take shahadah. Converts tend to gravitate to each other. Since I took shahadah, the converts who had befriended me and those who converted after me have almost all disappeared from the masjid. My best friend, who embraced Islam about 2 years before I did, no longer goes to the masjid other than on Fridays. He says he's treated either as "the golden child" (ie, the "token white guy") or he's never right (meaning, with every move he makes 15 contradicting brothers try to correct him).
I still have brothers who try to follow me to the shoe rack after salaat with the intent to correct me on some transgression I made during prayer. These are the same brothers who make no effort to give me the salaam.
