Reverts, how did you tell your family and friends you reverted to Islam?
as someone who wants to convert and born into a catholic household, I know it’ll be hard to reveal to my family I’ve converted to Islam. I wanted to hear other converts stories on this and how it affected relationships around you

Revert
I, a 13-year-old, have told my family that I have reverted to Islam. However, they are not happy with this change because they are saying that I am going against their teachings, and that there is no good reason that Muslims have to pray 5 times a day, and that we should eat pork because there is nothing wrong with it. However, I have tried to explain to them my beliefs, and they will not accept this. I’m just asking for some advice on what to do or how I can explain to them.

Teenage daughter in haram
My husband discovered about my 16-year-old daughter who is just about to do her gcse exams, is in a haram relationship. I'm not sure how to play this do I approach her she's going to flip because my husband went through her snapchat messages.
Obviously she's been doing this behind our backs.
Do I say anything now do I do after her exams?
Do me and my husband approach her or was it just better coming from me as a woman, do I take her phone away do I take her laptop away.
Do I just punish her with taking her privileges, etc etc.
What if she reacts badly to it mentally.
How do I best deal with this.

Why Islam?
I have grown up Christian my entire life, I follow the religion of my family. I was taught that Jesus is God in human form and he was sent here to show God's love for us. He scarficed himself (Jesus) to show us how much we cared for humanity. Recently, I have struggled with the concept of how Jesus is God others I have spoke with tell me that the trinity is hard to understand and to have faith. That saying that God couldn't send himself then limits the ability of God.
Last year I became fully aware of Islam. Of course I knew about the religion, however, I learned about Ramadan and more Islamic material was ending up on my for you pages. I fell in love with the teachings of Mufti Menk and began following other Islamic creators. Seeing what is happening in Palestine is also what motivated me to want to learn more about Islam because of their faith.
This year I prayed to God and told him how I would like to participate in Ramadan. Now of course because I am not Muslim, I did not do Iftar, Eid, daily prayers, etc. However, I prayed to God every day and wrote to him. My prayers per day went from once or twice a day to 4 times a day. It was the closest I have ever felt to God. I felt like my prayers were being answered more and I was had discipline. Now that it is over I feel miss it. I still pray but there was something different about last month.
Learning about Islam for myself made me realize how evil the West has made it. It is truly such a beautiful religion, I could see being a revert but I have questions.
1.) How is Jesus still considered the Mesiah? Why does he still have a large role in Judgement day?
2.) What to say when people talk about the word of God being given hundreds of years after Jesus
3.) I know it is believed that the Bible is corrupt ( this is what also makes me nervous about the teachings in the Bible) but what about there being eye witnesses to Jesus, his disciples? Them being bruttaly killed after sharing the testimony of Jesus rising?
4.) I hear a lot of people say that they Jesus was perfect that is why we should strive to be like him, he was perfect. Then they argue that Muhammad married a child and was demon possessed. How do you defend this?
5.) Do you know if you go to heaven? Or do you just hope you do enough good deeds to be granted into heaven? Is there redemption if you are sent into the hellfire?
6.) For revets, I saw people on reddit say the have to hide the fact that they're Muslim and have no community and feel like an outsider, how do you deal with this? What about finding a spouse in a new religion?
7.) I have read some of the Quran using an online book but feel equally as lost when reading it like I do in the Bible, where and how do I start?
8.) Why do you believe in Islam?

My parents think I'll commit violence because I converted to Islam
Please give me advice
I converted to Islam about a year ago (tomorrow, it will be exactly a year ago). I told my parents I was Muslim a few months ago after hiding it for like 8 or so months. They reacted harshly, kinda inferring they would kick me out of the house. They said "Islam is a bigoted religion. We don't want bigots in the house".
Now, for school, we are doing a research project. I decided to do PTSD in children of war, which included Gaza among others. I overheard my parents discussing why I shouldn't do it. My dad said "If my son (me) commits criminal violence, I don't want to be guilty". That's all I heard. I assume he was referring to this project being a dark theme, and he was saying that me wanting to do this project was because I wanted to violence. All he really has to go off this is 1. I'm Muslim, and 2. This project. I assume most of this thinking I'll commit violence is based on me being a Muslim (because of the whole "Muslims are terrorists" stereotype). Why would my parents assume I'll commit violence just based off a project?
I don't like assuming stuff, especially not about my parents. But I feel that my parents just genuinely called me a terrorist...
I need advice. For some more information, I'm under 18, and am a male in California. My parents are atheists, and at least my dad is antitheist (my mom is somewhat spiritual). What can I do? Can I do anything apart from praying to Allah? Am I just stuck with parents who think I'm a terrorist until 18?
TLDR; Atheist parents think I'll commit violence because I am a Muslim and wanted to do a project about childhood PTSD in war. I need help

I feel extremely bad for working at McDonald’s
Hey everyone I’m a student that works at McDonald’s and lately I feel really bad working there since I don’t want to support the genocide at all. It truly heartbreaks me seeing what Israel is doing to palestine and never supported Israel whatsoever. I worked at McDonald’s before the boycot happened and I always liked the job there. Since I got paid well and the hours really suit me also I can get my prayers on time there since they let me pray. Many opinions online just online to be honest told me to stop and look for another job which I did I even quit but I just didn’t get paid well for the 2 months I was gone and couldn’t mix school with the other job so I applied back but I still have this feeling sometimes that it’s bad and I shouldn’t have done that. Can someone please tell me if working at McDonald’s really is bad as they say

Should I tell my friend who became a neonazi that I'm a Muslim
Assalamualaikum dear brothers and sisters,
I need advice on how to deal with my friend, whom I've known since before I reverted.
I've know him for three years, and always thought he was joking when he said racist things, but recently it seems he isn't joking anymore.
He tries to push anti muslim and antisemitic propaganda on me. I know that if we got into a fight, our friend group would join his side or remain neutral. They also have right wing beliefs, but not as strong as him.
I'm not in any physical danger, because we are similar in weight and I have a boxing and jiujitsu background. In other words, I mainly fear social humiliation and isolation.
I'm leaving highschool next year and plan to cut the whole group off after that. Should I just remain silent till then or confront him right now?

Surah Nas ٱلنَّاس is the closest chapter in the Quran to my heart
The almighty chose the last chapter of the Quran to be a chapter in which, with all his mercifulness, calls himself the god of humans, not the skies, not the heavens, but of humans, like me and you, alluding his love for us humans, his creatures, from which came his most loved creation, our prophet Muhammed (PBUH), followed by him being our sanctuary from our eternal enemy, Iblis, ٱلۡوَسۡوَاسِ ٱلۡخَنَّاسِ , and serving as a reminder to seek refuge in the almighty from the devil. The almighty's love for us is beyond imagination. I have never encountered someone loved by the merciful more than myself, and I feel like my actions and lifestyle are not deserving of the love he provides me with. I hope one day to dedicate every thought and action for the sake of the almighty, islam and my faith.

Salam walaykum brother/sisters, im a shy, but confident person I believe, when im passing be elders/men I just give eye contact and a slight smile, but when I see a sister I have no problem looking down or somewhere else as I try to avoid eye contact with them out of respect, but when its non-muslims especially at Uni, sometimes they would just stare at me even when were close they just keep on staring at me and it makes me a bit nervous, but I always remember Allah whenever Im walking by or anywhere alhadmulilah and just wanted to know how to deal with a situation like this Islamicaly?

A muslim brother won’t leave me alone what do I do?
Salam everyone, I don’t know where to ask for help with this so I came here hoping my muslim brothers and sisters can help me.
I’ll get straight to the story/point.
There’s a muslim guy I know and he confessed his feelings to me multiple times but I rejected him a lot I even blocked him. Recently he messaged me again and not to expose his sins but he has no shame, sometimes he says things that should only be allowed between a husband and a wife. Fast forward I find out that he’s been toying around with my friend. This made me so upset because she’s such a kind girl and I was in disbelief.
She actually reached out to me first and asked me if me and him still talk I said ‘yes’ because that’s the truth, I don’t want to lie to her. I also told her that I don’t respond to him even though he keeps spamming me with different accounts. (Half of them are blocked I can’t keep up sometimes) I showed her all of the screenshots and she was heartbroken she told me that recently she asked him if he still likes me but he never answered he kept dodging the question.
Fast forward
He finds out that she knows the truth, she now knows that he’s been flirting with other girls behind her back. So who does he contact? Me. He reached out and told me im the problem and that I ruined everything I told him I didn’t do anything and that I just told her the truth and she asked for it so ofc I gave it to her why would I lie to my own friend? He found out she knows everything because without any hesitation she blocked him on everywhere, im praying he won’t make many accounts and bother her like he’s doing with me.
(Not to sound full of myself but i genuinely don’t think I ruined anything the relationship was haram to begin with)
After a bit of course I got doxed. I got doxed because I told my friend the truth because I didn’t want my friend to get hurt.
Now I didn’t believe it at first until he started sending me information about my mom and dad. And when I say every single little information I mean it. I was so scared. I asked him why he told me because I know your family is your weakness and because you ruined what I had with her (my friend) I will ruin everything for you
He told he has a plan, his plan is basically to 💀 me off. His plan is to come all the way here just to 💀 me, what do I do? Again I didn’t fall for it but now he’s sending pizza and flowers to our apartment because I ignored him because I didn’t want to respond to him. Im genuinely scared wallah it’s been bothering me a lot I don’t understand why he would do all this when he’s the one who messed up in the first place when he’s the one who’s disloyal to a girl he promised a lot of things he promised her marriage he promised her a family and so much more.
And no I haven’t clicked any links or anything like that I don’t fall for things like that. He even put my IP thing as his display name and my location in his bio and the thing is he told a server full of other muslim brothers everything about me and my full name my number my address now I’m getting dms and phone calls from people I don’t even know.
All this over a girl you didn’t even treat right?
I’ve been making duas to make it stop wallah I don’t know what to do. If only I knew how to dox someone so I could just scare him off that’s all I want. I even asked him do you not fear Allah why are you doing things that trouble other people? He said yes but this is just revenge
I hope someone here can help me out to make him stop. Doesn’t matter if it’s scaring him off or just advice, I just want this to stop.
Thank you for reading may Allah SWT bless you

What does “tying your camel” look like in regards to finding a wife?
We all know the Hadith that goes tie your camel then put your trust in Allah. I’ve always interpreted this to mean trust Allah’s plan but also put in the work.
I’ve made peace with the possibility that I may not get married in this dunya. But I understand that this doesn’t mean give up entirely. So if it is destined for me to get married in this lifetime what are some halal ways to go about seeking a wife?

I did it
Sorry for adding to what is probably a mountain of shahadda posts.
After probably far too much procrastinating and finally overcoming my fears, a few days ago I finally took my shahadda.
I'm not yet in a position where I can really tell anyone and as I can't yet scream it from the rooftops I thought I would just post it here, because I need to tell someone.
Thank you and I am so excited for what the future brings and my future as a Muslim.
In the meantime I'm just struggling to learn to perform salah.
