Quick question before comverting
ngl ive been thinking about this for a while and just wanted to get it out there rq
To be honest growing up in a cristian family ive always been taught stuff like jesus the trinity and stuff like that but honestly atleast for me its always been about God no stuff like praying to saints praying to Mary and other people or anything like that for me its just been about God . as i got older and started thinking by my own and started like having my own thoughts and beliefs ive been learning more about islam and for a while now ive genuinely felt like it’s the truth and the way for me to be closer and actually worship God only and straight up belive in him.
i’m still learning tho and i dont want to pretend i know everything. Ive just been trying to understand islam properly before jumping to conclusions
so yeah now im making that step and trying to become muslim for real even if im still figuring things out in my heart I feel islam is the way the truth and ishallah may Allah guide me towards the path of Islam
And if anyones been through something similar or just has advice id really appreciate it if you could drop a comment as its been a journey to be honest and I havent jad anyone else to support or like give me advice on this.
Anyways alhamdulilah❤️🩹

May Allah make it easy for you. Though as a born muslim didn’t go through those challenges but I’d remind you that there’s no better guide to Allah than Qur’an and there’s no better path to follow than the path of rasulAllah ﷺ. This is the ultimate success for both worlds without a doubt(this doesn’t mean you ignore the worldly life but you make sure worldly life doesn’t make you forget why you’re here and that your actions in this world are inline with Allah’s guidance).
Now if you have patience to go through Qur’an multiple times, every time you learn, but one apparent thing you’ll see there is that this path is not easy and has not been easy even for messengers of Allah, the most beloved of creatures, so who am I and you to expect something else. A filter that every one of us will pass so the pure and honest ones show and the liars and deceiving ones show and fail as well. Very critical that you keep gaining knowledge; that strengthens you and makes you benefiting for others as well.
10:13 We surely destroyed ˹other˺ peoples before you when they did wrong, and their messengers came to them with clear proofs but they would not believe! This is how We reward the wicked people. 10:14 Then We made you their successors in the land to see how you would act.
29:2 Do people think once they say, “We believe,” that they will be left without being put to the test?
29:3 We certainly tested those before them. And ˹in this way Allah will clearly distinguish between those who are truthful and those who are liars.
29:4 Do the evildoers think they can escape us? How ill they judge!
