You mentioned a website that you reverted through.

Does it happen to be any of these:


- http://www.islamreligion.com/articles/204/ - It also offers a Live Chat facility

- http://muslimsin.com/

- http://www.convertstoislam.com/

- http://muslimconverts.com/


You can maybe invite her to your accomodation, and convert through one of these websites. Also, you could show the various scientific proofs of Islam on those sites, in order to strenghten her faith. Remember to tell her, than in order to formally and officially revert to Islam, then you must say the following in Arabic three times, with sincerity and convinction, remembering the meaning of what you're saying in English, so it doesn't appear like any ritual:


"Ash-hadu an la ilaha ill Allah." - I bear witness that there is no God but Allah

""Wa ash-hadu ana Muhammad ar-rasullallah."
- And I bear witness that Muhammad is his His Last Messenger


If it helps, copy and paste the quotations above on a word document, to remember it fully, before telling her to recite it.

tell her to take bath & utter the Shahada & InshaAllah she will become our sis in Islam


If she officially wants to be recognised as a Muslim , then she needs to do it infront of 2 persons...that she can do it later also. but embracing Islam is between her & Allah . She can do it by herself. At least that what i learnt from other sites




May Allah make it easy for here, Ameen.


related links :


http://muslimconverts.com




Any human being can embrace Islam. You do not need anyone’s permission to become Muslim. You can be any colour, race, age, speak any language and still become a Muslim. There are many American, British, European, Indian, children and Adults who accept Islam every day.




On the www.muslimconverts.com site we have people who accepted Islam from all ages, all backgrounds and nationalities.
You may hear from some Muslims incorrect advice due to their lack of knowledge of Islam or due to lack of correct knowledge of Islam.


So please note that:



You do not need to do a course or obtain a certificate to become a Muslim




Someone may say you have to do a course or obtain a certificate to be a Muslim. This is incorrect. You do not need to attend a course or obtain a certificate to become Muslim.




You should not delay in becoming a Muslim



If someone advices you to delay your conversion to Islam. This is also incorrect. If you believe Islam is the truth then you should not delay your conversion to Islam. You should convert immediately because we are given a certain lifespan.




Since we do not know when we are going to die. Not even a minute should be lost as your time to leave this life may be up the next minute.





If you have tattoos you can still become a Muslim





Some one may say to you that you must remove all tattoos to be a Muslim. This is also incorrect. Tattoos are not allowed in Islam but they DO NOT prevent a person becoming Muslim.



You should become Muslims and latter you can have the tattoos removed if you can afford it. If you can not afford it then do not worry there is no sin on you for what you did before becoming Muslim You are still a Muslim.





If you have a wild past of have committed a many of sins you can still become a Muslim




No matter what sins you have committed or how wild your past was.


You can still become a Muslim.. Islam erases all sins committed prior to becoming a Muslim.




Prophet (may the peace and blessings and mercy of Allaah be upon him) said, “Islam annuls what came before it.”

(narrated by Muslim in his Sahih, no. 121).



As soon as you become a Muslim all your previous sins are forgiven and you start a blank state. Or a complete clean record.





I did not read the whole article....looks like useful


.....Some people have a wrong notion that entering into the Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities.




It is also thought that the act of accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.




We wish to clarify that the whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required.



For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts.



Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hadj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.



If anyone has a real desire to be a Muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-beings, then, one should pronounce the "Shahada", the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur'an is explicit on this regard as Allah states:



"The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam." (Qur'an 3:19)


In another verse of the Holy Qur'an, Allah states:





"If unyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire)."(Qur'an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions.



Allah states in the Holy Qur'an:


"To thee We sent the Scripture in truth, confirming the scripture that came before it, and guarding it in safety:..." (Qur'an 5:48)




Mohammad, the Prophet of Allah (Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him), said:




"The superstructure of Islam is raised on five (pillars): testifying that there is no God (none truely to be worshiped) but Allah, and that Mohammad is the messenger of Allah, performing the prayer, paying the Zakah (poor-due), fasting the month of Ramadan, and performing Hadj".




The Shahada can be declared as follows:
"ASH-HADU ANLA ELAHA ILLA-ALLAH WA ASH-HADU ANNA MOHAMMADAN RASUL-ALLAH".




The English translation is:



"I bear witness that there is no deity (none truely to be worshipped) but, Allah, and I bear witness that Mohammad is the messenger of Allah",

However, it would not be sufficient for anyone to only utter this testimony oraly either in private or in public; but rather, he should believe in it by heart with a firm conviction and unshakeable faith.


If one is truly sincere and complies with the teachings of Islam in all his life, he will find himself a new born person.

Dear Esther462,
Hope, wish and pray to Allah that you and your friend be guided to the right path. My congrats to you on Islam the true religion and the last message from Allah to humankind.

I would add to my sisters and brothers inputs that you have to know much about Islam. Statistics proved that the more Reverts read about Islam, the more they are conveinced and the more they love it.

My best prayers to you and your friend

Ummzayd

I did get your message. As you are aware that I am a Limted member so can't message you back.
I know its getting dark early. I'm at college Tuesday-Friday and I finish at 3:30pm most days execpted Wednesday when I finish at 1pm and Thursdays I finish at 4pm now.
I could meet you on a Monday, any time after 12:30, as I go horse riding in the morning. Or I could meet you anytime at the weekends. Or after college on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.
I am quite easy to spot if you see me round town as I wear a rainbow colours head scarf most of the time.

Welcome to the forum Esther and masha-allah for you and your openminded friend. I think Alpha dude said it best and that is don't be intimidated cause i have a friend from Estonia who's now a muslim but his passion for Islam was more like a weird infatuation because there were many things he didn't understand and he absorbed alot of misconceptions from the media but still he was interested and when he had the guts to join me and my brothers to the mosque, we entered and he ran loool because he felt intimidated looool now we use this funny incident to taunt him every once and a while
