Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim: From the moment I was born I was essentially put into a Christian family. At a young age I started going to church with my aunt & sister. It wasn’t until September 11, 2001 I heard about Islam. Although everyone around me were saying Muslims are terrorists’, none the less I wanted to learn about this so-called “terrorist” religion. By this time I had slowly stopped going to church.

"Assalamu Alaikum wa rahmatulahi wa barakatu!!!! Alhumdulilah we have been guided to Islam! May Allah continue to preserve us and keep us on the straight path, and Insha’Allah brings our families to the truth! Ameen With that being said…..Here’s my story!!

 I accepted Islam a month before my 21st birthday. A little back history. I was your typical Christian at the time. My parents raised me to be respectful, to worship the Trinity, to do well and not question religion. I went to church, but it was more of a fashion show for me or to see my friends.

Name: Noor
Background
I’m a 20 year old girl born and raised in Norway, by Christian parents. In my hometown there are 7 churches and no mosques, and hardly any Muslims. My family has never been very religious but I was thought to believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior. And I didn’t really question Christianity while growing up. All my family members and others around me were Christians. It was just natural – ‘the way it was’. Still, I accepted Islam one week before I turned 19. Alhamdulillah (all praise & thanks be to God).

Name: Khadijah/ One Chinese muslimah
Former religion:  Christian/ Buddhist

Prior to Islam, I had been leading much of a self destructive life. If it weren't for Islam, I would probably be the result of my own demise. My priorities were gym, clubbing, & socializing (online, coffee shops, malls, restaurants, & anywhere I could meet random people). There was no religion in my life and I had completely left off any inner spirituality that I once used to have. I was THE last person to ever talk about religion, think about God, or even know what the term 'salvation' meant. Religion was a big whopping ZERO in my life and God was nowhere to be found.

Former Religion: Catholic

All my life I was a little lost. I grew up with strict catholic parent who forced religion onto me. At 35, I found Allah and began wearing hijab April 2012. A lot of people ask me y? I have been friends with a lot of Muslims thru the years, so I was familiar with the religion.

Former Religion: Christian

When I was 21 I was searching for the truth. I had been raised Christian, but I no longer believed what they affirmed to be the truth. It was like every week I would go to church and one person would say this is the truth or this is the way to go to heaven and then another person would say no that is not right this is the way. And they had conflicting ideas and different ways. I just couldn't believe that what they really said was really true.
