May Allah (SWT) make it easy for you. Inshallah your family will accept your decision, but whatever happens, always remember Allah(SWT) is very close. You have but to pray.
 
As-Salamu Alaykum

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.

Peace CG
 
:salamext:

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. NEVER forget you have Allah. and over a BILLION sisters and brothers to be here for you when ever you NEED us.
-may Allah bless you allways and have strong deen (relgion) and iman (faith) ameen~
 
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

Wassalam
 
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.
