| slm For me, it was watching a Muslim praying in a park. He was worshipping his Lord swt and it did not seem to bother him that people were watching. Watching him prostrate was the sincerest form of worship I had ever seen. May Allah swt reward him with good. |

| [slm] No Barraa im not a convert....born a muslim... well i believed in Allah and some times would beg Him to get me out of a situation....with my parents mostly...my duas were answered...though dont think i showed gratitude...i knew things like not wearing hijaab was wrong...i was affraid to wear it at that time when all the female members of my family were wearing it...subhanallah i was soooo lost though i didnt realise it at that time....the funny thing was that i was kinda of protective of islam, i lacked knowledge big time and i knew that, i was afraid of being asked anything. My state of mind... i had never really contemplated on the Deen or on Allah for that matter, it was just soo not part of my life, Allah was just like the God u go and ask for help at sanctury and thats it.. though i was keeping all fasts, i never prayed much at school(only when i was kinda like told to)...i was enrossed in my horror novels(which obviously included every other thing) ....its discusting to think that all those years, thats what i was feeding my mind and soul on ....utter heedlessness,it discusts me to think about it! If Allah had left me in such and state i would have surely with the loosers of this life and the next...but My Lord had such great mercy upon,i called out to Him to help me at a time where i was pysically in need... i had finshed praying taraaweeh the last few rakats i was troubled so i took a nap....my lord blessed me with some dreams(i hope they r blessings dont want to post them-in private maybe) i think it was after that day that i wanted learn about my Deen and had a great urge to cover myself(wear full hijaab) as i could feel it when i was being observed (which i knew was terribly wrong and they had noo right to...) and basically draw closer to Allah.....im ever grateful....anywyz... jazakumallahu khairan take care all |

Asalamu Alykum, Surely, the opening comes from Allah(swt). Although, I was born in a Muslim family the ritual aspect of Islam was more focused than spiritual. Islam was not a way of life but just something that I was born with, I loved Allah(swt) but still didn't really show it through my actions. SubhanAllah, my opening came from hanging out with my Musilm friends. My life completly changed when i started wearing hijab. Before I started wearing hijab , subhaAllah i would just randomly run into hijab articles and books. And although, i didn't have a really strong burning desire to wear hijab but it slowly was built and I wanted to learn more and more. I started going to the mosque more , got involved in more muslim activities. I truly slowly understood that our life on this earth is very temporary. Sometimes I have flashbacks of my jahilliya life and its something that i want to completly forget. I can't thank Allah(swt) enough for changing my life and my perspective about Everything.. JazakumAllahu khair |
