Hiya sis,

well if your sure that you want to be Muslim, then you must tell them you would like to be one, you can't decide thier reactions for them sis, maybe they will be okay, well atleast your mum, maybe she wil be proud of your independance and your way of thinking as an individual, rather then being angry or mad at you, she could be quite happy and maybe even proud of you.

Instead of going alone you could take your best friend/nieghbour with you, to help you explain your thoughts on Islam with you,

Then if your Mum is happy, she can talk through with your dad (God willing)

I hope it works out for you,

All the best :)

Your in my prayers sis, don't worry too much :D

Tc of yourself xx

Don't fight them. You defenitly don't want to get stuck inbetween a fight between your parents and Islam. When they ask these questions they are doing that because they are trying to understand what brought you to Islam despite of certain prejudgeses they have. If there's a question you don't know the answer to, don't be afraid to say: "I don't know." D
In retrospect that didn't came out exactly as I intended it to. What I meant was, when you talk about Islam only explain it, Don't try to Justify it, the more you justify it the more they will try to look for flaws. SO instead just tell them how it is and allow them to make judgements on their own.

Are u muslim already? or interested in Islam? Whatever the case, you are such a sweetheart, masha allah.

I remember telling my parents when i reverted. Dads face went pale, as he thought i was gunna be a terrorist, and mum wasnt happy. I wish that i had waited just a little bit, until i had more knowledge, and also so i could compare the two religions, that of Islam, and also theirs. The reason being, that they kind of hassled me, esp. my father.

In the end, they got used to it. They thought it was something i was going through, and would soon get over it..lool..not likely!

Whatever you decide to do, may Allah make it easy for you. Also know this, that Allah tests the believers, to see who really believes. Im sure you will be fine, insha Allah.

I read this thread last night, I was going to post but someone phoned, I had the same exact problem, I live with my mom only and brother, my brother knew already, but it took me a year before I could tell my mom.

I wish I could tell you there's an easy way, I wish I could do it for you but I can't it can be very hard, my mum cried as if someone had just told her I had died, seeing the one that gave birth to you cry like that because of you is hard, don't be afraid to cry too, I did and am a guy lol.

Anyhow, it will in alot of cases be a difficult thing to say and do, Abraham, peace be upon him, had the same with his dad. When Abraham told his father,

When he said to his father; O my father! why do you worship what neither hears nor sees, nor does it avail you in the least, O my father! truly the knowledge has come to me which has not come to you, therefore follow me, I will guide you on a right path, O my father! serve not the Shaitan, surely the Shaitan is disobedient to the Beneficent Allah, O my father! surely I fear that a punishment from the Beneficent Allah should afflict you so that you should be a friend of the Shaitan.

We are not Prophets or Messengers but guidance has come to us also, we have had Islam told to us and we are following it and by embracing Islam we are indirectly telling our parents 'Follow me your on the wrong path' if that make sense. But look what Abraham, peace be upon him, had to deal with from his father,


He said: Rejectest thou my gods, O Abraham? If thou cease not, I shall surely stone thee. Depart from me a long while!

Stone!! Anyhow, we can take some comfort in known people before us had parents who became angry, it helped me to read this story. Don't worry, just be strong sister and keep safe and don't crumble under pressure by family to leave Islam insha'Allah.

Welcome to Islam, May Allah (swt) guide you and keep you strong. Ask Allah (swt) for strenght, courage and wisdom and it will work itself out and once your parents see that this is not a faze for you and this is what you truly want, they will get better with it and except your more

Eesa, how did you manage at home for a whole year without telling your mum?
I mean, did you still go to church with her? Did you still participate in Christian festivals and celebrate your birthday?

Well my little brother knew so he covered for me when I needed to pray and so on, also being at college meant that I wudnt be home alot of the time, as for church I went there, done alot of stuff, they asked me to teach some kids but I felt guilty lol, I stopped going church and told mum I didnt believe what she believed, but that was gradual anyway, and Christmas wasnt a problem just acted like a normal day, and birthday well we dont really do much for birthdays.

Dont worry sis, I can understand how scared you are. Our families hold so much respect and influence for us, and rightly so. If you can make your mum understand how much this means to you and how much this has changed your life then Inshallah she will understand and support you.

I go to a new Muslims class at my masjid and there is a girl there not much older than you. She is 15 and has recently reverted herself. She has had such a hard life, she is in social services care as her mum couldnt look after her. Lots of issues around alcohol and drugs etc. She is going to be fostered and I really hope a good muslim family will take her and guide her.

well you know theres a God and theres enough signs to say thats a fact and a half (no matter which pride filled man might come and say SHUT ITT) so end of the day you know that its God who created you and God alone who deserves your utmost obedience, you cant be obeying the creation when your disobeying God thats like me obeying an ant over my father, lol now thats a funny thought.

I sincerely hope you do that which feels spiritually right sis, you know the chance for heaven comes only once... just like the chance for hell :offended:

salam walkaum, i know iam older. but my mother was a devote christan .. (WAS) lol .. any ways i found islam in a book store. and i ran to her and showed her the book and what they bleved in and i was all exsited like i just got a new toy from the shop or even better like i just got my life back . at frist she was like wow . this is what you have been talking about for soo long. then she started to get scard i dont know if it was stuff she was hearing on the news. but she saw how islam and Allah changed me for the good. and changed me soo much that 6 months later she became muslim. I think that you should just go for it.. tell them in islam you have to listen to your parents unless they say to you something that is aguinst islam. i know that famies can be really hard on there love ones. me and my mom have family that wont talk to us and they do they calling us up to yell at us about what other muslims do .. instead of asking questions.. but that is life. the ultimit test is what are you going to sacirfice for Allah. our personal struggle (jihad) you might find out they wont care. or its not a big deal. and they might just be like oh your going thro a phase. and that is ok too . but you shouldnt hide it. be ahonst. be stright forword. and communicate as much as possible. let them know why you are doing this. inshAllah (Allah willing) it will be fine sis.

Subhanna Allah,

I live in Holland and their is also a sister of 13 years old that took the Shahada 5 months ago. She named herself Also Ayaa. And she has also not yet tell here mom.

Subhanna Allah this is very beutifull.
The girl has 4 bigger brothers. 3 reverted before her to Islam (the mother knows only about them) one brother conferted to Jahova's withness. The sister is scared to say it to her mom. But her mom begins to know something (we know she feels it!) But she doesn't say it.

MAy Allah ease it for you Insha Allah

assalaamu alaykum,

allahu akbar, (Allah is the greatest) and welcome to Islam sister.

i help out with my local branch of the new muslim project, that is in sheffield. there are branches all over the country - east london, leicester, southampton, liverpool, blackburn, manchester, leeds, sheffield and contacts in other places as well but i cant remember all of them.

all GOOD masjids (mosques) will find someone to help new muslims pray so go to them first as your local muslim community should be your first step for help and maybe they can send an imam or other elder to speak to your family?

but not all masjids are so good, some are a bit lazy in their duties and hence why there is a new muslim project in so many places so make use of them if your local muslim community cant help.

i would suggest you be prepared for the best and worst, i.e some parents are happy their kids have found peace, others are opposed, some are violently opposed and throw their kids out. my parents fell into the middle catagory and i ended up moving out to get away from all the arguing and death threats from former friends (i grew up in a very rough working class coal mining village).

so perhaps have a word with your muslim friends parents and ask them if you tell your parents and they do something stupid like kick you out will they take you in for a few days until social services can sort something out?

i would tell them though, you dont know how they are going to react and surely you want to share this beautiful gift from Allah with them? but you cant do that unless you tell them first and the longer you leave it the more they will be hurt you never told them all about it and kept it from them.

take care sister and if you need any further help from me or advice them pm my wife who is sister 'dafodil' on here.

assalaamu alaykum,
Abu Abdullah

ps...
take it steady, dont try to run before you can work. but not too steady, dont relax so much you stop learning and stop developing as a muslim.

then after she knows this tel her about how you feel. and tel her that eveen though your a muslim that doesnt mean you wiil love her less or anything. and she will always be your mother no matter what

If you want, i can forward your email address to sister tayyaba but i don't think its a good idea to give it in public. So if you want, i can pass it on through PM [private message] if you give me permission.



Peace.

if ur very serious then read the Quran preferably ayatul Kursi make dua to Allah and ask inshaAllah all will go well

ayatul Kursi is verse 255 of al baqarah chapter 1

if u cant read Arabic then read translation

Asslamu Alaikum Sister Aaya, welcome to Islam, you are now a sister in our 1.6billion family of brothers and sisters.

As for telling your parents, try to test them to see how they feel about Islam first. You said your dad doesnt like Muslims, but what about your Mum, try saying something like you were studying Islam at school and found it interesting, see her reaction.

I hope all goes well for you and your parents accept you as a Muslimah. Just remember to pray to Allah SWT and make due.

I go to a new Muslims class at my masjid and there is a girl there not much older than you. She is 15 and has recently reverted herself. She has had such a hard life, she is in social services care as her mum couldnt look after her. Lots of issues around alcohol and drugs etc. She is going to be fostered and I really hope a good muslim family will take her and guide her.

Irum,

I doubt she will reply - it has been years. Some suggestions from other members on this thread were:

  • Get teachers to tell them
  • Wait a while until you feel ready


I think it'd be best if you posted a thread in this section, as that particular sub-forum is dedicated to support, or this section, if you have any questions about Islam.

Also, don't forget to use the search function on the forum as some of the questions you may have may've already been answered :).

Hope you're doing well and I wish you luck for your decision. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask - also don't forget to ask Allah for guidance. :)

Ali.
