Why the difference between Muslim and Muslim Convert. Why not have Christian and Christian convert, and so forth?

I thought that, then it struck me that they must have chosen 'undisclosed' for a reason, so they'd be unlikely to vote in this poll. Why would they disclose their belief here rather than just changing their profile?
Oh well. My apologies - I'm easily confused.

Salaam,
Actually the mini profile can be abused,i think that some people tiak themselves as muslims but are actually arent.
It is the same as in chat rooms when you ahve some one with a muslim name but say that man is god or that muslim should not help palestine or iraqis are evil and what not..
So in the end,their intention of coming here is to cause disensiona dn i feel that the moderators should check whether they trully are muslim or not.
How simple..
Make them take the shahadah,,Muslim say it 5 times a day in prayer so it should be easy but for the "cover muslim" thy wont say it..

I am not asking individuals in the forum to say what their belief is, the Poll simply gives us a statistic of the beliefs of the people that use this Forum.
I did this as I thought its quite useful to know, so people who are from diffrent religions can address their questions here as they will know from this Poll there are X ammount of people with the same faith or the faith to which they want to address the question if you know what I mean :rollseyes

Ye ur right, should have had a Poll saying "Convertd to Islam", "converts to Christianity" and "converts to Judaism" :hiding:
Is it too late to modify it :?

I have greater respect for converts and not implying there is a diffrence. Just interested in seeing if converts use this forum to find out more about the religion :rollseyes
Apologies if I offended anyone.

;D Yeah I once heard this brother saying to the other guy "what are you?" and he said "Homo..." and the brother went "Nauzubillah" and the other guy when "...sapien, Im Homosapien" ;D
But I heard they recently discovered a diffrence between Humans and Homosapiens, is this true :?

Humans=homo sapiens. It is just the biological name of our sub species.

I voted Muslim convert. However I prefer the term revert. As I honestly believe I was always a Muslim and only through culture, practised otherwise, then woke up and came back to what I truly am. It was not converting to something new, it was a return to where I was.

You're so right akhee, the word revert is much better, also the hadeeth of the prophet alayhi salaatu wassalaam corroborates with what you said, "kullu mawluudin yuuladu 3alal fitra fa abawaahu yuhawwidaanih aw yunassiraanih...."
every new born is born upon the fitra (islam) then his parents make him jewish or make him christian....." alhadeeth (authentic)
wassalaam

I put myself as someone considering being a Muslim because, even though ive technically said the Shahada, and entered the faith, I can not yet pray, or perform wudu, you know "do the motions".

Allah, the Almighty says: Allah doesn't burden any soul with more than it can bear. Each soul receives the reward for the good it has earned and is punished for the evil it has done (2:286). And Allah, the Almighty says: Allah puts no burden on anyone beyond what He has given him (65:7). So sincere fear of and obedience to Allah and sincere struggling for His sake is in accordance with the ability of each slave. Allah the Exalted says: And strive sincerely for His sake He has chosen you and has not burdened you with any difficulty in the religion (22:78).
May Allah(SWT) reward your effort for the Deen of Islam.

Perhaps the title of this thread should be changed to 'What Religion Are You?'
As it is, if someone asked me the question 'What are you?', I could only reply:
'I'm Batman'.

Still though it does not matter if they vote because no-one will be able to see which member voted for what.
