Ash 🇦🇱 :
My exact situation, Alhamdulilah for being born Muslim, but it was a struggle growing up. I knew I was Muslim but didn’t know a thing about Islam. We never prayed, only fasted during Ramadan, never ate pork, but still drank alcohol. I thought it was normal until I was guided to Islam. I would always talk to Allah SWT before going to bed, and then He called me back to Islam. He guided me to prayer. Alhamdulilah, I started praying two Ramadans ago and became closer to Islam. I started praying regularly, dressing more modestly, and reading the Qur’an. Now, Alhamdulilah, I have been wearing the hijab for one month. It hasn’t been easy, especially with family constantly asking me why I changed so suddenly over the past two to three years and why I became religious all of a sudden. At first, they weren’t that supportive, but I started praying tahajjud, and later, Alhamdulilah, they became more supportive and accepted that it was my decision. Now, in sha Allah, one day when I get married and have a family of my own, I will introduce Islam to them and raise my kids as true Muslims.
