I did Shahadah

As of 9:40 P.M. last night I became a muslim. I don't know why but lying in bed with my eyes closed trying to sleep, I could not. I started thinking about islam and remembering posts from many of you and the happiness in my husbands face when I would ask him questions.......my heart skipped beats, my breath became shallow, as though a child very excited about something that was about to happen to him.....

I woke my husband and asked him to say the words for me to repeat and I did it. I did this FOR me, but I admit, his reaction was not all that I had thought it would be. So this morning I asked him, why did you say nothing.....
He said "I am afraid to say anything as you do not take things from me easily and I have kept quiet while you researched yourself for 6 months, and now you are muslim and I am so happy, but afraid to turn you back with my words." Makes me cry. Now I have to work on my patience with life and I hope it comes.......

Shokrun to all here and please encourage me on my journey. I rarely stick with anything long term and so I am very afraid of myself in this respect.....
 

Mahzala

فَتَبَارَكَ اللَّهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ

Assalamu Alaykum

That is such wonderful news sister :) May Allah make things easy for you in this life and reward you with Jannah in the NExt Life.

Allahu Akbar - Allah is the Greatest

I was following your posts and you asked and have said many positive things about Islam. You sounded like a genuinely kind and sincere person. I am glad that Allah helped you and that you found the truth. Elhamdulillah

I ask Allah to give us all more knowledge of Islam and make us all come together to obey him and live our lives according to his Perfect words in the Quran and by his blessed Messenger Muhammad :saw:

:SMILY252: :SMILY252:

Once again Congratulations :) It is truly the best and most important decision anyone could ever make in their lives.

Remember we are here to help, so if you do have any questions, dont feel afraid to ask. We are your brothers and sisters in Islam, and will help you and your family as much as we can.

Take Care,

Wasalam

Subhan-Allah, this is great news sister. I am soooooooooooooooo happy for you :). I have been reading your posts and a lot of us here had the feeling that its coming, mashaAllah.

May Allah guide you and help you in every walk of your life. May He strengthen your faith and make your coming to Islam a blessing and mercy to the whole mankind.

But Allâh has endeared the Faith to you and has beautified it in your hearts, and has made disbelief, wickedness and disobedience (to Allâh and His Messenger SAW) hateful to you. Such are they who are the rightly guided, (7) (This is) a Grace from Allâh and His Favour. And Allâh is All-Knowing, All-Wise. (8)

Thank you EVERYONE for your comments! It is going to be a real challenge for me to change the way I view things, you all know how bull-headed I can be. I am going to try to do my first FORMAL prayer with my husband this evening........but boy am I fearful of my parents and my eldest daughter.....I think where they are concerned I will just keep quiet for a while. Please do keep me uplifted in prayer and spirits. But please tell me, is it a bad thing that I can not bare to here qu'ran recitations in Arabic.......I really can't. Then or now. I guess it is not knowing the language. Just like I coudn't handle watching spanish tv.....I hope that is the reason. I think what helped me seal the deal is watching a video of Lisa Killenger. She spoke so eloquently and she was American. It is so much easier for me to take from amongst my peers than my husband or his friends. If that makes sense. ALSO, seeing the news that I posted yesterday made me fearful for my children.

it's ok sister...it's understandable..like you said it's probably because you don't understand anything..and it gets frustrating...like hearing two people talking in a foreign language..it makes you feel uneasy..

i would suggest..reading the translation of the Qura'an..perhaps that will give you a feel of what is being recited..and you'll get familiar with the content of the each chapter..so when you hear the chapter recited in Arabic..you'll dig into that memory bank..and go..oh yeah..this chapter had such and such in it..hehe

and when you make your prayer tonight..pray for the ummah sister..
like many said..you are sinless..like a new-born..and Allah (swt) will accept any dua'a you make to Him..

besides yourself and your family....nobody is more worthy for dua'a..but our ummah

and sister..being bull-headed..might actually be of benefit for yourself as a Muslimah..and for your Muslim brothers and sisters..*if* you know how to take advantage of it!..so i don't view it as a horrible thing :hijabi:

keep us updated...and ALWAYS ask questions

Salam alaikum, welcome to Islam new sister! :) I know a lot of us were hoping this day would come.... :D
****Also, I think you need to listen to some Mishary Alafasy with English translations, how can anyone resist his soothing voice?! Lol.
