Reverts' Journey After Shahadah (Folder)

[فداء الرسول]

Remember that feeling of inner peace after taking Shahadah?
It was a very special moment for most reverts, an important turning point in their lives.
But the Shahadah was only the first step on a long journey in search for God, a journey that needs patience, knowledge, understanding and a lot of wisdom.
New Muslims, especially those living in non-Muslim countries, have their unique needs and circumstances that relate to the environment and conditions they live in.
The idea of change is often not that easy: A change of lifestyle, of priorities and interests, together on the other side with a change of perceptions and attitudes of family and friends towards most reverts. This transition takes time, and needs clear directions and sincere guidance and advice.
This folder is a practical guide to help new Muslims go through a smooth transition and take the first steps of practicing Islam, living by its principles and coping with the challenges confronting them on their way to a new life of peace.
Welcome to Islam, and best wishes for a happy and fruitful journey on your Path to Allah.
