Well, I never really had a faith. My mother believes in God but didn't want us to grow up in a religious family because she had that when she was younger however I have always had a strong belief in God.
Thankfully, she is fine with me converting. She sees the good changes in me and she sees how happy I've become. I don't think a lot young people who have converted from other faiths have been so lucky.

Why did you convert?

Well, actually I went to church with my Auntie from the age of 8. It's your typical "Black-led" pentecostal church and I used to be convinced that there was a God because everyone would be "getting into the Spirit." Also the fact that at the end of every Sunday, the preacher would say those who didn't come to the front and pray for forgiveness would be doomed to Hell forever- and we didn't know if we'd wake up the next day, did we? At Sunday school they would go in extreme detail of what they thought Hell was like. Enough to scare an 8 year old I think.
In the end it was my father who converted to Islam, following the Qu'ran Alone. My parents are seperated but he used to come and talk to me and my brother (who's on this forum as well) about it. I never used to listen but one day he gave me a Qu'ran and I thought Why not?
It really opened my eyes and I immediately felt a connection with God, one I didn't feel when I was at church because I was just going through the motions. Eventually I started to doubt the "Christianity" preached at my church and left, accepting Islam, thanks be to God. My mother was accepting as I said, the rest of my family don't actually know I'm a Muslim now, though they have a feeling I think. But they'll believe I've been brainwashed by my father. I'm actually waiting for the day when I'll wake up and find myself at the front of the church being prayed over...
I think I posted my story last year when I first joined Free-minds... but I haven't been on recently due to exams etc. But it's nice to meet you all again

Muzhar! alhumdullilah you are very lucky to have parents who did not force you to learn Islam like a parrot and introduced you to it discretely, bravo a lot of credit goes to your father who did not dump you to the mosque at the mercy of Imams and this shows his immense love for you. So I pray pr there are more loving and caring fathers like yours sun
