I am still on a journey to see if this is the right path for me. But I had some events happen in my personal life that led me towards religion in general. I then spoke to a number of people and found myself here!
:salam2: i becamed muslim because Allah swt guided me .....between me and islam was ``love at first sight`` if i may say like this, i dont have a long story, complicated one, i cant say i was very surprised that i want to be muslim. I grow up in christian famely, but not very practicant one. For me, i always felt something is missing or that i am not like people around me, the same, i never wanted live the way they lived, even i tryed...and i tghout i have a problem ...... i studied science that i looove so much and i saw paths, i saw how complicated and beautifull is the nature but stille some questions remained about humans , about who created, about how created, about why created...and when i discovered Quran and His teachings..i just felt the circle closed, the puzzle is complet, i saw the answers, i read the truth, alhamdullilah. Ofcourse i needed a person to show me where to look (and this person camed when i needed very much help to be better in my life) and i needed time to study all that i didnt knew before, but now i am thankfull for everything...even i am having a very hard time in my life, even i stille have to change things about me ..i can only hope that inchallah, He will alow me to remain on a good path. May Allah guide us all
You are most welcome brother.I am still on a journey to see if this is the right path for me. But I had some events happen in my personal life that led me towards religion in general. I then spoke to a number of people and found myself here!
A~Salaam Alikium.....
Islam is wonderful.....
I grew up non denomination....I always believed in a higher power. My mother is Catholic but never pushed it on me as it was very difficult for me to understand as a young girl. My father is non denomination as well and this is prob where I got it from. I did ask him long ago if he was to choose a religion what would he have chosen? His answer was Islam. As some brothers gave him books and gave him some teaching when he was in Vietnam war.
Any how, how I became Muslim was something that just came across by Allah. My husband is a born and raised Muslim. I always supported him in his beliefs but was just kind of like whatever. I have researched many religions as it was something I was always interested in as to how they first came about and just the history of it all.
When I got more involved and researched Islam I have realized that it was very similar to my own personal beliefs and I have thought to myself that Allah has directed me this way. My life has been wonderful since I have chosen this path.
I wish I would have converted many years ago, but there is a reason for everything and it was just my time when the time came. I prob wouldnt have embraced it as well as I have now in my life. There is a time for everyone and Insha Allah more and more ppl when embrace the right path soon.
By the way I am new hear and am very please with this site..
Salaam
