To become a Muslim right now, all you need to do is : say this Shahadah ( testimony of Faith) aloud : {Ash-Hadu An La ilaha illal-Lah, Wa Ash-Hadu Anna Muhammadan w Essa Rasul allah.} It means: "I bear witness that there is no god worthy of my worship except Allah alone, and I bear witness that Muhammad and Jesus are the servants and messengers of God." تم الإ
This was amazing! I'm 17 and this really encouraged me to study Islam in a more deeper level. Please continue to make videos like this or even make podcasts.
Alhamdulilah for your stories back to Islam! ❤Allah has guided me to Islam and I’ve just taken my shahada yesterday! From the time I picked up the Quran there was no denying in my heart that Islam is the way! ❤❤❤
I was born a Muslim, but I consider the new Muslims better than us because God himself chose them. He chose them from among all people. It is a very great honor. Congratulations to you. I envy you for this blessing and I pray to God to grant you success.
He chose you too to be part of this ummah, renewing our relationship with Allah could lead you to the same feeling, if you haven’t read “Secret of divine love” it was like restart button for me and Gaza added to my devotion. Alhamdulillah always and forever.
Most of us born Muslims grew up with culture, more than Islam. So us researching Islam, makes us a revert as well. For example Shiaism isn't mentioned in the Qu'ran and the sect was made by people. So if they come to Islam, they're reverts/new Muslims and Allah swt knows best.
Both your stories are relatable and inspiring. Kudos to you sister for studying theology and dedicating yourself to learning your religion, despite growing up in western culture. It saddens me that there are so many reverts out there who live lonely lives but they deserve so much better. Brother Michael is truly blessed in so many ways.
I fully agree with you girl. My parents tought me how to pray or fast etc but they did not explain why i have to do it except thsts what you are supposed to do. I read on it myself and realised more and more how great Islam is and how in tune the islamic teachings are to humans and whats good for them. It leaves me in amazement
Mashallah, I appreciate both of your conversations. As a revert, it truly brings me joy to see others that embrace Islam and align with Muslims that are passionate about learning about the Deen 🥹 may Allah SWT bless you both and your marriage
Thats nice. I was interested in Islam few years back but few facts changed my mind. I don't know how you justify these things. 1. Allah permitting sl*vey till judgement day (Q 23.5 & 23.6) 2. Allah allowing wife beating (Q 4.34) 3. Prophet sleeping with a 9 year old child and marrying exwife of his adopted son. 4. Prophet keeping sl*ves for himself and selling them in market. I haven't got any proper answer for these.
You are wonderful couple. God willing, Your positive attitudes and stories about Islam to impact on many people who will be in peace and find world happiness in the world and hereafter.
Assalamualaikum from a fellow half-aussie! This was probably one of my favourite revert story vids, SubhānAllāh. You two are so beautifully understanding of Islam! May Allah SWT keep you two steadfast upon his religion. Allahumma āmeen✨
Absolutely loved this! I loved hearing Michael’s journey and I most definitely empathised with you Awiista in how those of us who were born with Islam (Alhamdullilah) have to go and find Islam again in order to truly find ourselves. You are both so eloquently spoken Allahumma Barik. Can’t wait for more conversations like this ❤️
i literally clicked on this video because of how beautiful you are. your stories have touched my heart, masha Allah. i hope i can learn a few things from your channel
Found your channel yesterday because I had marriage questions and my feed led me to you guys. I thought you guys wouldn’t post much, but alhumdulillah you guys did! Islam is a journey for some of us. I loved hearing your stories. Also I officially just subscribed!
Mashallah hearing you speak about Islam is so pure and beautiful. It is so inspiring and subhanallah Allah has guided me to your profile! I wanted to ask if you could link some of the lectures you spoke about in the video, or of your sheikh (if you’re comfortable afcourse). I’d be really interested to see them! ❤️
Jzk, Allah bless you thank you for your kind comment. the shaykh wouldn’t want to be mentioned publicly by name. I personally usually watch lectures on deenstream, yaqeen institute, seekersguidance, zaytuna, Cambridge Muslim college, etc
The best video I’ve seen on RU-vid, your intelligence- allahumabarik it’s so beautiful. I’m a 25 year old, born Muslim and you get into this routine where it becomes very mundane and repetitive with no real hard feelings, just a box your ticking as you go along your day, “oh let me pray asr and continue my work” and it’s so hard to really think the blessing we are in, and how everything around us is not happening for no reason, but into account with Allah, and happens only by his will. It’s hard to stop and realize this, because we are born into the religion. But this video has been eye opening, y’all need to make a podcast or something I’d defo blew up.
Allahuma Barak, I randomly clicked on your videos and was not prepared for them to connect to my soul the way it did. Specifically, how Allah continuously creates you, and how in this western world, religion has been devalued to be seen as less than bc of this 'New Age'. Hasbiyallah Wani'mal Wakeel… that struck my bones and heart. Jazakallahu Kheran for this video, it has proved a sense of guidance and new-found understanding.
Actually Iam amuslim person and iam very happy for you guys because being a muslim in some countries are really difficulty and Your stories are toughing😢 baraka allah keep going sizter❤
This really hit home. I wasn't expecting to have an impact on me but I really felt similar to your journey Awista! I first felt bad for questioning but when I understood it was actually to internalize my belief to Allah. I share your opinion about secular education system and I am glad you mentioned that. It isn't talked about enough how much impact it has on us. I always were on a journey but now I am thinking about learning the 99 names of Allah. Please don't stop sharing.
"and he choose to give me one more breath to turn to him" 😭 sometimes i feel like i don't deserve it but i can't give up on myself when he didn't give uo on me my Allah bless you both.. you two beautiful souls must beware of the evil eye.. out of envy / jealousy or even love
Omg, this was such alively intellectual conversation! I'm a huge fan of William Chittick. I want more scholars to be like him. He explains the Islamic World View so well.
As I clicked on your vid „husband tag…“ on my recommendation feed I didn’t think much just the cliche 2 peps how they found eo…but you both seemed different and know listening to this I am hooked. You both are so intelligent, well spoken and inspiring mashaAllah. I cried with you as you mentioned that Allah is creating in every single moment.. he is recreating us knowing all the crap but still gives us new opportunities to be a better version of ourselves and to turn to him subhanAllah. Every hardship we go through he helps us and make it easy for us when we choose the right path. Even when we sometimes fall down or loose our connection to him he never gives up on us, his love and rahma for us is endless. iIt’s always incredible and indescribable to feel his existence in certain moments of life that are so precious. The more we actually learn about Allah and his creations the more we get amazed. Every rule in Islam has a meaning it’s not necessary needed to know to believe but one’s we get experience or learn the meanings behind it makes us buffed. Life is a never ending test full of struggles that can bring us one more step close to Allah. I hope we all never loose our faith and trust in Allah. May he always guide our heart’s🤲 „ وَمَنْ يُوءْ مِنُ بِا لّلَهِ يَهْدِ قَلْبَهُ Who ever believes in Allah, he will guide his heart“ ♥️ May Allah bless your marriage🤲 PS: Make dua for me sister to find a righteous, intelligent and understanding husband with whom I can obtain Allah’s approval and gain his jennah🤲
@@awiista ameen🤲 Jazakallahu khairan sis♥️May Allah let you be inspiration for many people and may you achieve your khair goals as soon as possible. I hope and make dua that we live a life how Allah us want to live and see eo in jennah with Allah’s mercy inshaAllah🤍
Selam Awista! I’m deeply moved in the video where you mentioned Allah being the ultimate creator, I've been watching it repeatedly, and it brings tears to my eyes, Alhamdulillah. Thank you for that. Could you please share the source you used to learn deeply about Allah's attributes?
Waslam, thank you so much for watching Allah bless you. Yes inshAllah I have a new video coming up all about knowing Allah and some book recommendations inshAllah
Hey may Allah bless your marriage 🙏🏾been having a hard time since my life isn't going the linear way like you've mentioned, and I felt light and crying when you said there's a second journey ,which is beyond the physical world. I guess that's where I'm going.I've left my home country due to war and feel useless because I'm unemployed and don't know where the trajectory of my life is going(pray for me). I always felt that I need to succeed and prove my worth through work and titles. Anyways love your conversations, you guys inspire me to actually seek marriage 😂something I've been running away from. Do a podcast you both are brilliant MashAllah xoxo
I can feel you going myself through this hardship and feeling useless but sister never give up and don’t let sheytan make vasvasa where he tries to push us down. It’s hard to stand up once you fell down so trust in Allah he knows the best. Make your faith strong, the journey to Allah is way more important than proving ourselves to others. May Allah make it easy for u🤲
@@awiista Amen and Thank-you sister🙏🏾inshAllah your channel gains traction for the beneficial info you share ith us and May Allah make all your wishes come true ya rab❤
Machallah may allah bless you and grant you steadfastness both 🤍🤲🏻 Great message this video has, and its so inspiring to us as Muslims to find our own way to Allah

What a great point that ALLAH give to you to more beleave in to HIM that " HE CREATED ME AT THIS MOMENT " over and over and ........... ALLAHO AKBAR what a point of thinking that you rise here may ALLAH blessed on you, Jazak ALLAH o khaira
We see a lot of reverts are very open minded, they embraced Islam very honestly.Just seeing them gives an impetus the others to get a deeper understanding about Islam.
Masha Allah ! Thank you guys for sharing your spiritual experiences. It's always inspiring to have religious insights from different perspectives even for muslim-born people who take their beliefs for granted. May Allah SWT bless you both and your family.
I truly truly loved this podcast and hearing you both find your own ways to Allah simply beautiful, I would genuinely love to hear more, more about your studies and the books you read, your teachers, all of it! Thank you for sharing such deeply personal things with us ♥️
Thank you!! I never felt so heard! Your story is similar to mine, i am born and raised Muslim in a Muslim Country, but "Islam" of our closed relatives and friends is about rituals and how u look like a Muslim, and it has always brotherd me that we hear or read something from the Quran, but rarely live by it! so i just accept it how it is thinking that was the normal. Until I traveled to Europe for a small trip, it was like 2 weeks, you know, when hear something it is not like when u actually see or feel it. of course I know that they are mostly don't believe in any religion but to actually see it. i was Shocked. and After I returned, i started to Question everything i knew: -Is Islam really the truth? -Maybe it is all Lies maybe Christianity is the truth, after all a lot of people believe it. -What if Islam is not the truth, then what is? ... then i was like... i was born Muslim and live with my Muslim family which i love so much, but if they know that my i might follow it, it will not be great, So i should focus on understanding my religion more, then if it didn't convince me and answers my questions, i will look for something else. What is Islam actually? what does it mean to be a Muslim ? why there are things that are forbidden? why the West is hating on Islam ?... and الحمدلله i found the answers after almost a year or so, it been almost 6 years since then, and I am still learning more about this fulfilling religion, and from time to time i get weak to the community pressure of the "being a Muslim is about rituals and external work" but it is a life journey, and has it is ups and downs, i always remember myself that " i was born in the time,century, country, community, family... for a reason so keep going!!
I cant come to explain how beautiful this video was, thank you so much for sharing! This topic is one of the topics that really need to be talked about more often so thank you so much for speaking about it. Can you guys share the books and lecture videos that helped you align your spiritual faith with the physical as well as books and lecture videos regarding the topic of theology it would be greatly helpful and appreciated! And honestly if you guys can make another video about it where you speak of those resources or those topics in depth that would be amazing! Alsalamu Alaikom and may God bless you guys, your families and all the good people in this world with so much happiness, peace and love. Jazakom Allah immense barakat and khair🙏🏽🤍
Thank you so much, Allah bless you! Nearly all my videos are centred around sharing the resources and books that have personally helped me. In terms of theology there are many good places to start. For example deenstream (there’s a few series’ on theology) Zaytuna college RU-vid, Sapience institute etc. my husband started with Christian theologians (insofar as they are working to prove the existence of God). A famous one is William Lane Craig. InshAllah that helps :)
Thank you for sharing your story. I recently reverted on my birthday (7 days ago today to be exact). It’s nice to hear both of your journeys. It hasn’t been easy as I don’t speak Arabic 🫣 I’m doing my best to pray 5 times but it's been a bit hard. I've made mini salat cards to help me. what book(s) would you recommend for someone like me? new to the religion
This is so nice to hear MashAllah. This video I did has books I recommend ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rp_4mPij4i0.htmlsi=m56nzV5RZWLvD0-u Particularly the book “Being Muslim” is a good place to start inshAllah it includes all of the fundamentals :)
