Only Allah can change people's hearts. I know that from my own experience. I never thought that after I converted I would be lonely. I thought that muslims would embrace me just as I had embraced Islam. I will pray for you too; May Allah send you righteous muslim sisters to guide you and help you and comfort you and keep you company. Amin.Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08016249614421972151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18729137.post-88893388536864187172009-10-10T01:07:16.674-04:002009-10-10T01:07:16.674-04:00I love your blog!

They, however, lack genuine, sincere, neighborly or sisterhood/brotherhood type feelings in their hearts. I am of mixed ethnicity and I know your pain. To make matters worse, my own family (5 siblings and respective spouses, only a couple are married) have commited the same crime too often to count. I can say this, I certainly would have invited you over in a heart beat! I surely would have replied to your text, if only I were so lucky. *sigh*<br />I love you for Allah. May you have a very blessed life in the dunya and aakhira. Aaameen. <br /><br />WassalaamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18729137.post-71648338543799479872009-09-26T01:18:09.309-04:002009-09-26T01:18:09.309-04:00Jazak Allahu khair sister for checking out my blog...Jazak Allahu khair sister for checking out my blog and reading about my journey.

Many Muslims...Sorry to hear about your experience. Many Muslims practice the outward (prayer, fasting, etc) yet they are greatly deficient in the inward. It seems that the people you know probably have a diseased heart or they are too caught up in worldly affairs. This is a major problem for many Muslims. Try to find Muslim with a pure heart who also practice the outward for they will be your best friends. In the end, you will probably only end up with a handful of friends.Salamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12353236302471367403noreply@blogger.com
