Converts / Reverts

I have met plenty of revert Muslims. In my experience, most reverts become better Muslims than us born Muslims. It’s like they choose Allah and Allah chooses them.
Masha Allah

RESILIENCE

Assalamu Alaikum! 😊 I’m a kind, caring and honest person. I value Islam, family, respect and loyalty. I’m here to meet a sincere Muslim who prays, has good character, and is looking for a serious relationship leading to marriage. Feel free to say Salam! 🌸hi

I am beyond tired of racism and hypocrisy. Just because someone is white and not born into Islam does not make them a lesser person 😔

Only Allah swt can judge us.

The Qur’an and its Practice in Everyday Life

The Qur’an is the holy book of Islam and the guidance revealed by Allah to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Muslims are encouraged not only to recite the Qur’an, but also to understand its teachings, believe in them, and put them into practice in everyday life.

Allah says:
“This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah.”
— Qur’an 2:2

1. What does practising the Qur’an mean?

2. Worshipping Allah
   Establishing the five daily prayers, believing in the oneness of Allah, making du'a, fasting during Ramadan and fulfilling the obligations of Islam.

Qur’an 29:45 — Prayer helps protect against immorality and wrongdoing.

Qur’an 29:45 — Surah Al-‘Ankabut
English translation (meaning):

“Recite, [O Muhammad], what has been revealed to you of the Book and establish prayer. Indeed, prayer prohibits immorality and wrongdoing, and the remembrance of Allah is greater. And Allah knows that which you do.”

Explanation of the verse

1. “Recite what has been revealed to you of the Book”

Muslims are encouraged to read, recite, understand and reflect upon the Qur’an, using its guidance in their lives.

2. “Establish prayer”

Muslims are commanded to establish the five daily prayers consistently. Prayer strengthens a person's relationship with Allah and reminds them of their responsibilities.

3. “Prayer prohibits immorality and wrongdoing”

Sincere, regular prayer should help a Muslim avoid sinful behaviour, dishonesty, injustice and mistreating other people. If someone prays but continues to commit wrongdoing, they should reflect on their prayer and strive to improve their conduct.

This does not mean that a person who struggles with sin has no value in their prayers. Rather, prayer is an ongoing means of guidance and improvement.

4. “The remembrance of Allah is greater”

Remembering Allah through prayer, supplication, recitation and reflection is among the greatest acts of worship. The phrase is also understood by scholars in relation to Allah's remembrance of His servants and the importance of remembering Him.

5. “Allah knows that which you do”

Allah knows our actions, intentions and circumstances. Nothing is hidden from Him, whether our good deeds are visible to others or performed privately.

Qur’an 29:45 teaches that prayer should influence how we live, not just how we worship. A Muslim should aim to combine regular prayer with honesty, patience, kindness, justice and respect for other people's rights.

2. Good character and kindness
   Being honest, patient, compassionate, trustworthy and fair, and avoiding cruelty, arrogance, dishonesty and injustice.

Qur’an 16:90 — Allah commands justice, excellence and generosity towards relatives.

3. Applying Islamic teachings to marriage and family

Treating a spouse with kindness, fulfilling responsibilities, communicating respectfully and avoiding oppression. Family relationships should be guided by justice and mercy.

Qur’an 4:19 — Live with your wives in kindness.

4. Reading, understanding and reflecting

Reading the Qur’an regularly, learning its meanings, reflecting on its lessons and trying to apply them to personal decisions

Qur’an 38:29 — A blessed Book revealed so people may reflect upon its verses.

The Qur’an must be practised, not merely recited

Allah says:
“Do you order righteousness of the people and forget yourselves while you recite the Scripture? Then will you not reason?”
— Qur’an 2:44

This verse teaches the importance of putting religious knowledge into practice rather than merely speaking about it.

• Speak truthfully, even when the truth is difficult.

• Treat parents respectfully while maintaining appropriate boundaries and avoiding wrongdoing.

• Fulfil promises and honour other people's rights.

• Show patience during hardship

• Avoid judging others unfairly

• Repent and seek forgiveness when mistakes are made.

3. Following the Qur’an and the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

Islamic practice involves both the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah — the teachings, actions and example of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

Allah says:
“Indeed, in the Messenger of Allah you have an excellent example.”
— Qur’an 33:21

The Qur’an establishes the foundations of faith and guidance, while the Prophet's Sunnah explains how many of its teachings are put into practice, including the details of prayer

4. How can you practise the Qur’an every day?

A simple daily routine could be:

1. Morning: Pray Fajr and read a small portion of the Qur’an with its translation.

2. During the day: Be mindful of your speech, behaviour, responsibilities and treatment of others.

3. When facing a decision: Consider what Allah has commanded and whether your choice is honest, just and permissible.

4. Evening: Reflect on your actions, ask Allah for forgiveness and make an intention to improve.

5. Consistently: Learn about Islam from reliable sources and practise what you learn.

Today’s Du’a
Ya Allah, as we start this new day that you have blessed us with, we take your beautiful names,
ask you to please change me in the most
beautiful way.
Ya Rabb, purify my thoughts, heal the parts of
me that are hurting, and remove every habit,
desire, and distraction that takes me away from
You and brings me no benefit in this dunya or my Akhirah.
Free my heart from overthinking, from seeking people's approval, and from worrying about who loves me, who dislikes me, and who chooses to stay or leave.
Remind me that my worth is not determined by people's opinions, but by the sincerity of my heart and my relationship with You.
Ya Allah, teach me to let go of what I cannot control, to stop chasing what is not written for me, and to find peace in trusting Your plans.
Replace my anxiety with tawakkul, my confusion with guidance, my weakness with strength, and my attachment to this dunya with a deep longing for Your pleasure.
Change my heart, Ya Allah, until I love what You love, leave what displeases You, and choose You above everything else.
Make pleasing You my greatest priority, remembering You my greatest comfort, and meeting You with a heart You are pleased with my ultimate goal.
Ameen Ya’Rabil’Alameen

Oh Allah protect me from the evil of what You have decreed

As a revert, what criteria did you use to determine that Islam is the true religion?
