Desperately Seeking Guidance on Shahada and Quran

As-salamu alaykum. My wife is Christian, and I am torn between Islam and Christianity. I feel drawn to Islam, and while I also feel a pull to Christianity, I am somewhat more at ease with Islam. For context, I am Australian, but my family is North Indian and ethnically North Indian, so I have been exposed to Islam more than Christianity. I feel a strong urge to say my Shahada (fully sober now, because I once said it while drunk, which was not ideal). I would appreciate help in learning how to read the Quran. I don't know Arabic at all, only English and Hindi/Urdu, though I hope to learn Urdu soon as well. Any advice, especially from reverts, would be greatly appreciated. JazakAllah khair.

I was exactly where you are. Once you take that step, things fall into place. Allah bless your journey.

Bro, take the Shahada when you're ready. It's between you and Allah, no need to rush. May Allah guide you.

You said you're more at ease with Islam, that's a sign of fitrah. Go for it brother, may Allah accept it from you.
