Finding my way back to Islam as a born Muslim – need your tips and advice

Assalamu alaikum dear brothers and sisters. I was born and raised in a Muslim household, and alhamdulillah, I've always identified as Muslim. But during my teenage years, I felt my spiritual bond with Islam weaken, and now there's a heaviness in my heart. I truly want to reconnect, but I'm unsure where to start. If anyone has walked a similar path, I'd be so grateful for your advice. I plan to read the Qur'an with translation, but I also want to deepen my understanding and become a better Muslim. I feel like I need to go back to the basics, but I'm not sure what that should look like. Jazakum Allahu khairan for any suggestions.

Join a local halaqah or find a group of sisters online. Reminders and good company make a huge difference.

Sis, I've been there. Start with just opening the Quran daily, even a few verses with translation. It works wonders. And don't beat yourself up, Allah is Most Merciful.

I started with just memorizing one small surah, then another. Slowly, my love for the Quran grew. Be gentle with yourself.

Don't underestimate the power of dua. Talk to Allah like He's your closest friend. He's always listening. ❤️
