I Shared My Conversion with My Mother

I finally opened up to my mom about embracing Islam. I made sure to explain that I'm really far from any extremist stuff and that I stand for peace and freedom. I didn't get into the details-like salah, fasting in Ramadan, or anything like that-since I didn't want to dump too much on her at once. Honestly, her reaction caught me off guard; it wasn't bad, but it wasn't fully supportive either. She's glad I've found happiness, yet there was a hint of disappointment. I figure she just needs some time to let it sink in. My dad and sister still don't know. I'm not sure when I'll find the courage to tell them.

MasyaAllah, sis. It takes guts. Give her time, my mum was the same way. InshAllah she'll come around when she sees your peace.

Welcome to Islam, ukhti! ❤️ going slow with family is wise. May Allah soften your dad and sister's hearts too. Keep making dua!
