I am thinking about converting to Islam. The person that I am with hates the idea. I have been studying Islam for awhile and want to convert. I think they are afraid that I would leave them for a Muslim if I converted. He says it is because he is such a Christan, but he does pray or anything like that. My mom thinks that I should just get rid of him. She thinks that he is holding me down anyway. Is this going to be the last straw for us? Should I hide who I am praying to?

I agree. I think that he was not the one for me. I have converted and I broke up with him after he bullied me into taking my hajib off in public one day. I have never asked him to take off his pants in public. It is my body and if I do not wish to display it to the world that is my choose.

Hi phoenix, I feel what ever religion you follow- your heart should be pure and should always ready to help and stop hurting other even the person who is wrong. For me god is one thats why he created us same like other two eyes, one nose and every one has access to natural thing. last decision is your.. enjoy :)

Phoenix, I am a Muslim woman and I studied it for 2 years before my reversion, if you will and I could not be happier with my decision. Concentrate on doing good deeds after your conversion which is two simple statements: There is no deity worthy of worship other than Allah, and I testify that Mohammed is His Servant and Messenger. That is it in English. Once you have said that within your heart, you are a Muslim. This wipes the slate clean with Allah of any sins committed before the declaration. Your soul is clean before Him without stain. The, concentrate on learning how to pray and doing good deeds for the sake of God. The rest will take care of itself. No need to please anyone other than Allah, but you will find yourself being drawn to like minded believers and away from those who would detract from your walk of faith. Ma Salaama. Peace be with you whatever you decide. Feel free to email me anytime if you need more help at saarafoster33@ymail.com or krissy30@gmail.com.

Hi phoenix, Religion is the cause of all wars and this just proves it, you must ask yourself what is right, and the person you are with maybe right, I don't know but does it matter what your religion is, if I was studying a religion, I wouldn't wnat to convert to it though. Tamara

I think we just all need to learn how to live together. I do understand where you are coming from though.

Will religion really matter for a relationship to work?My father has converted to Islam a few years bank and my mom and I are christians,we communicate well but since my father is very far I don't know if we are still okay when he comes home.We should not hide in praying and to choose the religion we think is right for us.
