So in reality, even born muslims go through similar. Their parents can be on either side of the scale, i.e. too secular or too stuck up in the teachings of a deviated sect which promotes acts which are totally contradictory to true Islamic teachings (probably because they too were brought up following these false teachings too.)



So don't worry too much, those who follow the true guidance, they are usually the minority throughout history. And this shouldn't put us off, rather we should be thankful to Allah that He has guided us.

Here's an interesting link by the way;
