Asalaamu alaykum everyone!
I have just found this site and wanted to introduce myself!
I have been exploring Islam for about 18months now which has been a wonderful journey. I feel blessed to have discovered the truth.
I am hoping to take my shahada soon inshallah. I talked to my mother yesterday about where I am in my search and she was a lot more supportive than I expected, Subhan Allah.
I still have to tell the rest of my family which I think (and my Mum warned me) is going to be more difficult than with Mum and I am not sure how to do it. I live in a different city from my family and therefore can't talk about it in person for another month. But I feel that I want to talk to them sooner as I don't really want to delay my shahada much longer!
I wanted to hear from other reverts who have gone through the experience of talking to their families and their thoughts on the best way to do it.
I continue to make dua to Allah that he will help me and give me the strength to talk to them.
Salaam and thank you in advance,
Michelle
