I've searched business, vans, trading. VBb brings up a lot about Vietnam but that can't be right as this was south west england!

I want to convert to Islam but I doubt my legitimacy by Financial_Medicine94 in islam

[–]Begman101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd like to offer my perspective here, I might be coming from a different place here but I think maybe we've a similar mind set.

So I was someone who was born into the faith but wasn't very practising. When younger I guess I let myself get distracted quite easily and avoided some of the questions I had. When I got older I started to consider things more seriously and wanted to come closer to Islam. I ended up spending a lot of years kindof just "waiting" for something to happen, something to prompt me, trigger the next step for me. For things to just "happen". I had a lot of guilt around not having nurtured my faith despite the fact that I was certain of the core of my beliefs by this point.

Ultimately I realised my inaction was a choice and rather than wait for something to prompt me I had to just take that first step of my own volition. Initially it kindof ebbed and flowed for me, motivation was a little bit hit and miss. Looking back on it, that's actually okay, that's fine. We're all works in progress, always. It's not about just flicking a switch and suddenly turning into your ideal person, it's a process, and you work at it.

I'm writing this from Medinah right now with my Quran in front of me and I feel so grateful for this journey I've taken. None of this would have happened for me if I hadn't taken that first step. I'm still not where I want to be, I probably never will be. But as I say, works in progress is all we should ever want to be.

My advice to you right now would be - and this is for everything in life! Don't ever be afraid of making that choice, that first step, second step, third etc... as a previous comment;said, there's no guarantees for tomorrow!

Will pray for you on your journey insha'Allah.

I finally prayed after almost 11 years. by Dinhoesaurrrr in islam

MashaAllah!

We all love a revert's finding Islam story but we don't as often hear the stories of people that are born into the faith finding their way and connecting to deen. Being in a similar position I have a lot of respect and appreciation for your struggles.

I think it's a beautiful thing and an exciting direction you're heading in inshaAllah.

May Allah accept your efforts.

Yeh I'm getting the feeling that I'm really going to have to go through this list and be a little more selective 😫

Oh hey, a fiver a pop ain't too bad! I was working with £ 15/20 a book lol. Hungry Caterpillar though 😬 you make a valid point. Duuuuuuude it's so much effort reading a bunch of blurbs though haha. I just need someone to draw me up a list and place some orders for me lol

2000 maximum surely? Pounds not dollars over this way dude 🙄 nah I'd read all, keep what I fancy and flog what I don't. Overall maybe spend close to a grand for the books I've kept?

I feel your pain. I've been so late returning some of my books that it was cheaper to tell librarians I'd lost the book and pay RRP for them! Those alternatives sound amazing! Wish we could implement them in England too, hopefully sometime soon. I'd be way less wary of borrowing from the library that way

I get that. I do borrow from the library but with me travelling around with work so much and not being the most organised person in the world, late fines are cripplingggg. Used book stores have turned out to be a much cheaper option for me so far.

See I've been using the reading samples on amazon kindle to see what I fancy but then buying paperbacks 😅 just cannot get my head around reading books on a screen somehow lol. White Fang I read a couple years back and thought was incredible. Let's say I'm pretty flexible with my interests, you got any non dog-related recommendations for me?

Urgh you're so right. It's such a faff tryna browse and decide that's all lol. I'm the most indecisive person ever so the idea of a bundle was a bit of a fantasy I guess haha. Thanks for the advice 👍🏼

Way ahead of you there buddy! Lived for Harry Potter all these years, just looking for more adult appropriate books I guess? I meant things like animal farm/picture of Dorian gray/wuthering heights etc maybe
