Looking for Guidance

Salaam, I’ll keep it brief insha’Allah. I’m a young man from Norway considering embracing Islam-or reverting, if that’s the right term. But I’m a bit worried about how my family might react and what they’d think. I’ve started reading the Qur’an and even took part in Ramadan before, though I haven’t officially taken the step yet or gone deeper. Basically, I’m hoping someone here can share general info about everything. The more details, the better. JazakAllahu khayran for reading, and may your day or evening be blessed.

Ramadan practice before shahada? Mad respect, bro. Just go for it, you’ve got the Ummah behind you. Don’t let fear delay the best decision of your life.

Brother, your heart is already in the right place, mashallah. Don’t worry too much about family at first, keep learning and praying secretly if needed. May Allah open their hearts too.

Norway’s cold but your iman will keep you warm, akhi. Read a good tafsir, it helps tons. Family might be tough but time and patience win over everything.

As someone who reverted from a similar background, my advice: take shahada first, everything else follows. You’ll be surprised how Allah eases things.
