My Heart's Plea: A Prayer for My Family's Guidance

Assalamu alaikum. I am in a difficult place, writing this with a heavy heart. I still believe Islam is the truth and in Allah (swt), though I have been far from the path. It is a painful feeling. I humbly and sincerely ask you for your prayers. Please make dua that Allah guides me back to the straight path. Also, please pray for my husband. He wasn't a religious man before, but lately, he has been seeking spirituality. Perhaps this is Allah's plan to bring him closer. He sometimes speaks negatively about Islam because of the actions of some people who do terrible things in its name. He is misguided and doesn't understand that it is the individuals who are wrong, not the deen itself. I am committed to my husband, who is the head of our household. Please pray for my whole family to find guidance. I love Allah, and it feels so wrong for me to be anywhere but in worship of the One God. Some might call me a hypocrite, and maybe I am. Allah knows best what is in my heart. I have a daughter, and my husband is a good man at his core. I know if he embraced Islam, he would be a wonderful Muslim, insha'Allah. May Allah guide us all and make it easy for me to explain Islam to him with wisdom, even if he struggles to understand at first. We cannot force this deen on anyone, and we must respect others as Allah commands us in the Quran. Jazakum Allahu khayran.
