How often do you discuss Islam with traditional muslims ?

Absolutely sister, when the topic comes up or presents itself, speak nicely and invite to God with wisdom and kind enlightenment. Give them something to think about!
We never know how God's will works. You could have a simple conversation like with your dad and nothing comes of it, yet maybe months or years down the road, maybe that little seed you planted will take root and blossom, God willing. It's all we can do.
For example, the one brother who converted was someone I trained at our workplace. We got to talking about God in general and I just was having fun asking him questions and making him think. We had a good time with it and I thought it was just like everyone else I ever spoke to - it would amount to nothing. I didn't see him at all after training and around 3 weeks later, he shows up unannounced, knocking the door of my house. I was completely surprised and when I opened the door he said he was doing a lot of thinking about things we talked about and came to the conclusion that he wanted to study the Quran and wanted to know about prayer! I gave him a copy of Quran and that was 15 years ago and he is still a faithful, practicing believer and one of my closest friends.
You just never know what will happen from a few simple conversations. sun
