al-Inglezi
As-salaamu'alaikum,
Obviously since coming to Islam I have had to give up alot of my previous life. But one of the biggest things is that I had to end a three year relationship with my girlfriend. It's been slowly deteriating but yesterday it was finally finished (no more talking or anything, etc). I know this is the right decision because Allah (SWT) has told us not to have relationships outside of marriage and also because my girlfriend didn't believe God let alone want to convert to Islam. So I am fully aware that this was the right thing to do although I feel kinda down... I know Allah (SWT) is always testing us and I guess that was a test and also the way I feel now is a test but it's just weird because that was an important bit of my life, I have so many memories and stuff, it's gonna be hard getting past it. I have and will continue to make du'a to Allah (SWT) to make things easy for me and to help me but I just wondered is there anyone on here who has gone through a similar thing, seeing as there's a lot of reverts? Just some words of advice or wisdom would be much apprieciated
Wasalaam.
