Seeking Guidance on My New Journey in Islam

Salam everyone! I reverted to Islam just recently, in early April, alhamdulillah. I’m reaching out because I could use some advice on a few things. Since I’m still a student, some of the prayer times fall right during my classes. I know missed prayers should be made up, which I’m okay with, but there’s one bigger issue on my mind: I haven’t told my parents about my conversion yet. I’m on the younger side (not sharing my exact age), and because of this, I’ve actually stopped praying my five daily Salah. I feel like once I get past this hurdle and talk to them, I can get back on track. I trust in Allah’s mercy and forgiveness, but that doesn’t make it any easier right now. Another thing that holds me back sometimes is the language barrier-I have resources to help, Alhamdulillah, but it still worries me about doing things correctly. Lately, I’ve been feeling really low and disconnected from Allah. Any advice would mean a lot. Allahu Akbar.

I reverted last year and told my mom after 6 months. It was hard but worth it. Please don't give up on your prayers, even if it's just one a day for now.

May Allah strengthen you. The language thing gets easier, I promise. Focus on your intention.

Salam! Been there with the family talk. Take your time, pray when you can. Allah sees your heart.
