Hi everyone...i found this site after googling for more info on Islam.
For maybe the last 30 years i have felt something was missing in my life....over the years my life has been pretty wild and i have substituted one 'addiction' after another looking for what was missing but never found it. I cant remember what sparked my interest in Islam but i began reading online and trying to find more about it all. I slowly began making changes to my life without really being aware of it....like i woke up one day and realised i hadnt had any alcohol for weeks, during this time i met a man who is muslim and we married a while ago.... he obviously knew of my interest but left me to make up my own mind about converting.
I eventually decided i wanted to convert to Islam but felt i didnt know enough to do it.....after reading posts on here over the last few weeks i learnt a lot more and i realised it was okay to do it and learn more afterwards I took shahada a couple of weeks ago so big thanks to everyone who's posts helped me The second time i did salat i felt so at peace and i realised that the big hole i had felt most of my life had been filled
