As-salaamu’alaikum Warahmatullahi everyone! As we all know, Ramadan is tomorrow and I would like to say a few things as this will be my first time celebrating it. 

I discovered Islam at a point in my life where nothing made sense. I was looking for a sense of direction and knowledge, that I was unable to find through Christianity, Buddhism or Judaism. I looked into all the ‘major’ religions as a hope of finding self-peace. 

My therapist says that due to my PTSD, I need stability and clarity in my life, which is something Islam provides. My journey hasn’t been difficult but also hasn’t been easy. I read up on the origins of the religion, the main beliefs, and some things in the Qur’ān, and said: “yes, this is for me.” 

I live in a household riddled with Islamaphobia. It is because of this that I can not wear my hijab, or even talk about my faith with my family. I’m okay with that though because I have something of a ‘virtual’ family who always wants to hear about my faith. It is without these people that I wouldn’t be here today. I’ll put all their thank-yous under the cut. I’d just like to say I am so blessed to be Muslim. I am so blessed and thankful that Allah loves me, and that I love him. Thank you, massive thank you, to the entire Muslim community for accepting me as your own. Subhanallah. 

thank u <3
