i registered on a here a few days ago, but have been a visitor for a long time.
i reverted to Islam on the 1st of may, after being brought up as a catholic for 16years. i found no truth and had too many questions as a catholic, but after discovering Islam, my questions were answered, and i decided i wanted to follow this path of truth!! since reverting, my life has changed as a whole. i have friends now who i can actually call friends, i dont seem to be as stressed and depressed as i used to be, and i feel i can trust...trust in Allah!
i wasnt a nice person before reverting, had bad habits, did bad things. i was a drug addict and had problems with my drinking, had fights, wore clothes that were barely clothes with all they showed, and was in general, a nasty person. i never thought i would change as much as i have, i truly thought i wouldnt live to see my 20th birthday. it was the hold drugs had upon me, and i had no one or nothing to reach out to. i even had a 'just if i die' letter in my draw next to my bed. i needed a job, because i couldnt afford my 'hits'. i applyed at the local asian take away, and it was here i discovered Islam. since that day, over 2 years ago now, my whole life has been different! a guy who worked there, seemed to see past my habits, and introduced me to Islam. he knew how bad things were, and he told me he was convinced i would find help within taking on this religion, even if i was just to read up on it. 3months after that day, i was clean of drugs, and was keeping well away from alcohol and other habits. i carried reading up on Islam, for a following year and a half, and one day, i just knew i had to revert, i just knew it was right, and could see no wrong.
now, i am InshaAllah to marry to the same guy who introduced me to Islam, and we are expecting a baby girl, due on december 29th! (she was conceived before my reversion.)
anyway, just thought i would tell of my story! Islam really is the truth, really is the right path!!!!!!!!
