I want to convert to Islam but have few questions (OP)
hey there my friends,
i am <snap> from India, i am 17 and i belong to Brahmin Caste. i started to learning about Islam when i was 15 and i must admit that i hated Islam when i was young (child) i used to think that Muslims are not good guys (fear?) and i also hated Muslims (unlike other muslims, mejority of Indian Muslims dont pay much attention to cleaning n stuff) but after reaching age 15 i started to learn about Islam and i started to slowly follow Islam, my native religion is just Mass 33million+ gods and i hate Idol worshiping, (i don't know why but i just hate it.) and i also started to accept that there is only 1 supreme god and we should only worship him directly (not by pics,idols etc etc.) i love history so i know most of Islamic History (ottoman and Mughal are my Fave Empires in the world history.) so i saw doc. of Islam on YT few days ago and after researching Islam for 2.5 years now i am fully sure and accepted that there is not god but god/allah/el elaha(supreme god) and Prophet Mohammed is slave and messenger of Allah. i am ready to become muslim but i have some question. please answer  1) can a Indian who's from Brahmin caste convert to Islam ? 2) if yes, i don't want to change my current name to Arabic it is okay ? my name means God in sanskrit (allah have 99 names and my sanskrit name is not one of allah's 99 name so i guess it's okay ? ) 3) i can not pray 5 times per day because i have very busy lifestyle, 2-3 times a day is okay for couple of days ? and Praying in Arabic is too Hard for me (i tries once,) can i pray in English for few days ?
4) my parents are liberal hindus but sometime they force me to worship Idol, what should i do when they force me ? also, i am just 17 can i hide this fact that i am now muslim from my Parents and other family members ? 5) how born muslims view converts ? do they hate us ? 6) i need to know how can i convert to Islam can u guys help me ? (i want to convert to sunni Islam) (like how to declare/took shahada.) 7) it is true that Arabs are racist against Indians ? [ not sure about this tho, i am 6"+ and pretty well built guy (hitting gym since i was 15) and light brown skinned (got tanned) maybe they just hate Migrates ? (they are mostly short 5.5'' and dark skinned ?) ]
sorry for too many questions , i have to take my decision in couple of hours.i hope you will answer my question. [sorry for being jurk]
May god Bless you.
