I go to a 95% muslim school
and I have been talking to them, some girls, about Islam and
I really understand the islam religion and the ways of life.
I want to know all i can find out about islam but there is
one problem . My mom .
I want to convert but I'm not sure if I know all I need to
know now to convert. What should I learn more about???
Praise be to Allaah.
This is a great effort that you have undertaken, and you are to
be congratulated for the results of your research and your
questioning of the Muslim girls.
What you need to know are the basic matters which are easy to
learn, such as the meaning of the Shahaadatayn (the two
statements of faith) - which are the key to Islam - and the six
pillars of faith (eemaan) and the five pillars of Islam. You
should also learn how to pray so that you can begin to pray after
you pronounce the Shahaadatayn. You can find a lot of information
on these matters on this website.
As regards your mother, we hope that she will not try to stop you
becoming a Muslim. Treat her with kindness and tell her about
Islam in beautiful words - maybe she will embrace Islam too. If
you are afraid that she may turn against you if she knows about
your Islam, then you do not have to tell her about it. Embrace
Islam in secret, and do as much as you can of your duties towards
Allaah. Allaah will never forsake you; in fact, He will help you
and support you, if you turn to Him. We ask Allaah to help you
follow the truth and adhere to it. We are prepared to offer any
help that we can. Peace be upon those who follow true guidance.
And Allaah knows best.
