Is it necessary to convert?

It is a very personal feeling between the person and God(swt). I was born in a different faith and lived a non-Muslim life. I do not believe I converted to Islam. I honestly believe I was born Muslim and that my life styles and experiences kept me from acknowledging it. When I finaly accepted Islam as being what I truly am, it was a return Home, to what I was and should have been practising, so to me I call it a reversion, not a conversion.

I understand :). I suppose most converts feel that way, whatever religion they converted too.

But you must admit it is confusing :p.
 
In sikhism you dont convert either you coronate, its about elevating man and women to sovereign beings, I dont believe in this reversion business its just a form of egotistical rhetoric, if i was born a muslim then I would not have my foreskin intact. No, I was born to be a king.

That's fair!

Same applies to us Sikhs, we are all here to serve God. As we all live within his Hukam (order) God does only what pleases him!

Yep I can confirm that. It's like all those feelings that you couldn't place finally make sense. And not only emotional. I'm repeatingmyself since Ialready said this in another thread. But the main reason I reverted was because I recognised the qur'an (not recognise as in heared before; but rather like: I see now; it all makes sense. Like I had this faith dormant in my body all along alhamdulillah.
