My name is: Sister Nadia
I am: 41 years old
I am from: United Kingdom
Before I became a Muslim, I was: Agnostic
I have been a Muslim for: 23 years
I became a Muslim because:
As a child I always believed in A Creator but my household didn’t practice (dad catholic and mum Protestant/ agnostic). When I was 15!I became unwell and started looking into religion. I studied them all and came to islam last.
The best thing that has changed in my life is: Everything has improved. I was lost, suffered despair and depression. Islam gave me perspective and purpose.
My advice to someone who is looking into Islam is:
read the Quran yourself and ask questions to a scholar or Alim/ alimah with an open heart. Make dua- supplication will help you find peace. Listen to your heart,Your heart does not lie.
