Hello,
My brother and I are refugees living in Germany since two years ago, originally from Iran. We are from a muslim family but over the past year he has changed dramatically. When we were living in Iran, my brother said he was an athiest. He refused the Islamic way of life completely and liked to wear gothic clothes and listen to metal music. He hated how strict the islamic government was and eventually started to explore other faiths, mainly Christianity.
During this time, he spoke out against the government and gave his opinion on the freedom people should have and how wrong they were for making so many restrictions. He was arrested for making claims because we are not allowed freedom of speech. We had to escape when my brother got bail because we had many problems from then on.
I think he came across an Islamic preacher's videos when exploring the differences between Christianity and Islam. Ever since he has been following online preachers very closely. Gradually he stopped going outside, eating properly, sleeping properly and refuses to learn German. He stayed at home for months, reading about Islam on the internet and watching videos from you and others. Nobody could convince him to do anything else.
Recently, he decided to start going to our local mosque. Again, he is not living a normal life. He stays at mosque all day, praying five times a day there, sleeps in the street, fasts on a Monday and Thursday to be like Mohammad, eats only with his right hand like Mohammad, does not eat properly. He will not talk about anything except religion.I don't know what to do anymore. He is only becoming more and more extreme with this lifestyle. He respects everything these online preacher's say and will not listen to me or our friends.
Best wishes
