Asalam aliakum everyone,
I am a new revert, and have only been learning for 6mths. When I first started to learn I was on another Islamic board that you could ask questions to someone of knowledge and they would answer. Alhumdullilah they answered ALOT of questions I had about what I what was learning. Since I was emailing using my work address the person noticed the company I worked for and forwarded me an article reg.my company and that it ultimately was a company that was helping to hurt our fellow muslims around the world. I had worked there for 11 yrs and I was very confused by the article and what to do about it. I couldn't quit and not support my family. So I prayed Istikara prayer and within about 2 wks I was fired unexpectedly. ( this is an at will company) which means you sign knowing that they can fire you whenever.
So Allah did give me the answer and I have to say even though I was scared not knowing what was to come, I felt a peace too that I knew everything would be ok.
And yes another door did open, I was starting another business and now I am fully working on that and inshalllah it will be successful and I will be able to support myself and my family with something that I can respect.
Sorry long post.... Just this was such an incredible experience and I wanted to share it.

Allahu Akbar , Masha Allah, Subhan ALlah, May Allaah reward you ameen.
I just want you to put in your consideration the surrounding environment in the new work, because the surrounding environment at many places I worked in weren't suitable for Females.
Atheists this is you situation now:
the Unbelievers say: "These are nothing but tales of the ancients." (25) Others they keep away from it and themselves they keep away; but they only destroy their own souls and they perceive it not. (26)(Translation of surat Al'anam)
JazakAllah for all the support!
I am happy to be free of the environment where I worked, not too much respect for women at all.
I pray that Allah will be pleased with me now as I am helping disabled adult with care and support.
InshAllah I will be successful in supporting my family in a way that has meaning.
