I reverted to Islam in January of 2010 Alhamdulillah
I am 12 turning 13. Some might say, I don't know what I am doing, or am too young to know..
I had this feeling,inside.. I knew Islam was the way. Since I was younger too, I'd always wondered about religion, and more so , how I came to this world, and why I was here. (I'd always been a curious child) My parents , being agnostic, never taught me religion.
I went from Agnostic, to Christian, to agnostic.
Last year, I searched up Islam. I was very drawn to it, but I knew my parents would dissaprove, so I let it go.
This year, I again felt curious. As I learnt more and more about Islam, I knew that it was the truth.
I would be on, until the late of the night, reading and learning about Islam.
One day, I couldn't wait any longer , I had to convert!
This kind lady helped me say my shahada, through the computer.
I wish to say it again at a masjid In sha Allah
I thought to keep it a secret, but recently told my parents.
they're not too happy about it, but, I fight for my beliefs.
At school also i thought to keep it a secret, but realised. Why should I? I'm going to wear my Islam proud!
Everyday , I'm going to admit, is a struggle. But it sure is worth it

wa alaikum assalam

Greetings, I see you said you tried Christianity but obviuously you did not go deep, I just hope it was not Jehovas witnesses mormons or uncharismatic Catholics and baptist for they don;t have the full message of Gods Great Love

God Bless you

It is nice to see you here...a thousand congratulations! الفمبروك
I am a new revert too. I am nowhere near a masjid so I had to do shahada on my own.
Hope you are able to learn a lot here. I'm trying to learn Arabic now. It is the hardest language I've ever tried to learn but I am learning to appreciate it more and more. InshaAllah I will get better with it.

I am also trying to learn Arabic. It's struggling at times, but not that hard. In sha Allah we'll both get better at it

sister, You are not required to view all at once, you can view them when you want. i think they will helpful to you.

Sister, islam don't force to new muslim to leave all thing at once or at once start practising the complete islam. after shahada the first important and necessary thing is Prayer. Learn the complete Namaz and other more necessary thing for practising basic islam. you can start them hidenly. it will make more closer You to Allah (God). Shaitan (Evil things) don't permits any one to succeed in this and next life, it always discourage and braking the Peoples from doing good deeds.
Sister you can become for your family, the way to islam. islam has given more practical solution for Best family relations. You can win the confidence of your family by you more good and polite behavior, dealing with your brother, sisters, mother etc. Through a more good change in your this life as compared to past life, you can with their trust. you can introduce the actual face of islam in your family.

Your Shahada has removed all your previous sin, please Pray also for me ( your elder brother in islam) and whole islamic Ummah .May God Make us true muslims.
