Revert Q&A

I was searching for the purpose of life for a very long time. Jumping from one religion to another & lastly when I discovered Islam, it all make sense. Alhamdulilah

Officially, Jan 2019.

I just got separated from my Non-Muslim ex husband then, it was very emotional time for me. So I travelled solo to Amman, Jordan to experience my first Ramadan, it was exhilarating and challenging at the same time as travelling alone forced me to relayed on Allah swt alone. It increased my faith in Allah swt & brought me closer to Him. Alhamdulilah.

I am more discipline now & doing a lot lesser self destructive activities (drinking,smoking,drugs,zina etc), having a healthier lifestyle is truly a blessing. When I am feeling sad or stressed out about life, I have somewhere to go to; salah.

Buddhist, Christan, Atheism

They were not happy and was extremely worried how "the Muslim" will oppress me and make my life hard.

I am fine with learning about Islam and Quran, afterall life is a learning curve. However I have problems with people that likes to give unsolicited advice esp when they don't know your background and then use Islam to insult/butt into your business etc. I find these a cancer in this ummah and they are driving a lot of people away.

Believe in Allah swt & don't let others intimate you. They only do so because they are afraid to facing their own demons. Pray, pray, pray & trust in Allah swt, you can do this!

I reverted when I was 29 yo, before this I was married to a non-Muslim man. He was great, it's just that we are world apart so we decided to separate so that we both can look for our own happiness. And Alhamdulilah I found my happiness which is Islam. Coming out as a Muslim was not easy as I am an influencer but what better way to spread awareness than using my platforms, right? Alhamdulilah, I love Allah swt just like each one of you, but I am only human. I am not perfect & never will be but I will keep trying to be better until my last breath as Allah swt never forgets me. I wish all of you the very best in duniyaa & ahkirat. May we all meet in Jannah one day. Amin
