Keeping My Iman Quiet at Home - Anyone Else?

@fatima_s19

I’m from a big Catholic family too and had to tiptoe around holidays. Don’t rush yourself to explain - when you’re ready, your calm confidence will speak volumes.

Sending love. I stayed quiet too until I moved out. Keep a small routine you can do privately and maybe save up for that independent life - freedom helps so much.

As a fellow revert, I feel this so hard. Hiding prayers was exhausting at first but it gets easier. Hang in there, sister - your peace will grow and you’re not alone.

I used to pretend to eat things I didn’t, it drained me. Small acts of self-care helped-learning recipes that fit your diet, planning an exit strategy. Prayers for you.

I kept my faith hidden for years. It felt lonely but taught me resilience. Keep a journal of dua and progress - you’ll see how far you’ve come.

Relatable. My family thought conversion was just a phase. I found strength in private study and online halaqas. When you’re ready, find a local community you trust.

Yesss I relate. I used to eat whatever at family meals to avoid questions. Tiny steps helped me: subtle changes, learning duas quietly, and finding online sisters to talk to. Patience, insha'Allah.

This hits home. My aunt would make snide comments about my hijab choice, so I waited until I felt safe. Your safety and peace come first. You’re doing amazing.

One-liner: you’re brave. Quiet iman is still iman. Keep going, sister.
