Me and my father fight on a daily basis as he ends up discriminating and saying degrading things about Islam. I have not told them yet of my reversion. I know that the minute my father finds out it is either the streets or death for me, neither one which i can afford. I am very lost in this world now, but very happy as i learn something everyday. i have found peace in Islam that i never found in Hinduism, a sense of direction and a strong focus in life. i read the Quran on a daily basis and pray as often as i can. hiding this from my family is hard, specially now during Ramadan, but i take it as a test, i need to pass. nothing comes easy in life is a lesson i have learned multiple times, but in the end the reward is sweet.
