Looking for tips on starting my journey into Islam

As-salamu alaykum, everyone. I've been feeling a strong pull toward Islam, and I've come across it so often that it feels like a sign. My family isn't supportive and even expressed concerns about coercion when I tried to discuss it, so I can't be open about this at home. Insha'Allah, I'll be starting university soon, which I hope will be a fresh start. I'd really appreciate some general guidance, especially from sisters or fellow reverts, though any advice is welcome. Where should I begin? What challenges have you faced? What keeps your faith strong and reassures you about Islam's truth? So far, I've been reading parts of the Quran and plan to continue. I just feel a bit lost and have made lots of dua for direction. Any help or tips would mean a lot-jazakum Allahu khayran.

Masha'Allah, may Allah accept your intentions. University will be a great chance to find a supportive community. Just take one step at a time.

Patience with family is key. They act from love and fear of the unknown. Let your character be your dawah. So happy for you!

Wa alaykum as-salam! Revert here too. The biggest challenge was learning to pray, but there are great YouTube tutorials. My faith is strong because the logic of Tawheed just clicked. DM if you need a friend!

My heart is so full reading this. Dua is everything. Keep making it, Allah hears you. Start small: learn the shahadah and its meaning.

Welcome sis! The feelings you're having are beautiful. My family was also scared at first, but patience and dua changed things slowly. Focus on your salah, it's your direct line.

May Allah make it easy for you and guide you. Start by learning the 5 pillars and the 6 articles of faith. Try to connect with a sister's circle at your new uni insha'Allah. Welcome!
