I want to convert to islam but i dont want to tell my parents?
I Praise Allah for drawing your heart towards Islam. What you should do is treat your parents with kindness, love and respect as this is an act of a Muslim. Allah said in the Quran: "And treat your parents with kindness" (6:151) so treat your parents with kindness or with more kindness. And maybe influence your parents view about Islam. If they think Muslims are terrorists then show them some videos about Muslims speaking against terrorism. then if you still feel that they are not going to accept or approve of you becoming a Muslim then you should embrace Islam in secret and do as much as you can of your duties towards Allah. And never worry Allah will never forsake you; in fact he will help and support you, if you turn towards him. Whenever you are scared pray to Allah and Allah will answer you. Allah says in the Quran; "Call upon Me, and I will answer You"(40:60) Never lose your trust in Allah, He will always Help and protect you. If you’re afraid that your parents will see you praying or reading from the Quran, then do them when your parents are not there or do them outside of your house like in a Mosque. Also in a Mosque they will teach you how to pray and how to read Quran. What you should do is spend more time in the Mosque than your home and if your parents ask you "where you going" just say "outside", you can see this ain't a lie as you are going outside to the mosque. Don't eat pork. If your parents ask you why don't you eat it, tell them about the life of a pig that it eats anything even its own excrement or poo, the pig even eats its own dead child. In sha Allah this will be a satisfying answer to your parents. Spend a lot of your time with your Muslim friends they will give you support and finally Pray to Allah that he guides your Parents towards Islam. And There is no such thing in Islam That the world will end in the 21st century. No one knows when the world will end not even Prophet Muhammad (May peace of Allah be upon him) only Allah Knows when it will end.
My parents disowned me because I'm not in their religion, what should I do?
I disagree with what they have done. I am a good person, married and faithful with this amazing daughter. Do I rub my happiness in their faces and show them what they are missing out on. I have the coolest kid on earth and my husband is incredible and they are missing this. My mother in law has really taken over, she's been there for my daughter's birth and everything in our lives. My mother in law is also very religious but has bent over backwards for me, taking care of my daughter during surgeries etc. Do I send my parents pictures of their beautiful grand daughter? What can I do to change things? Do I just say screw them because they are horrible enough to disown me for not wanting a part of their religion? I will never be like them!
Islam - How can I respect my parents when they're so rude and unloving towards me?
I guess initially.......what I want is......just for everything to stop. The tears, the pain, crying myself to sleep. i feel too embarrassed to go and talk to them. And even if I did..I wouldn't be able to talk. I always get choked up and teary and words never are able to get out of my mouth when I cry.
My father left Islam . i do not know what to do ?
Just pray for him and inshallah, he comes back. Allah guided him once, your dad knows the truth and things became difficult. Don't push, just show your contentment with Islam and sooner or later your dad will see again. Sounds like he has had difficult events in his life, but Allah doesn't give us more than we can handle. Sometimes we go through phase of losing iman, or get lazy or many things. IF THE TIME COMES: if your dad respects logic, you can have a serious conversations about it with him and he will have to face it. Tell him it is his DUTY. He sees the light but doesn't follow. He has to do what he knows is right, for himself! this life is short. Tell him even if islam and religions etc is untrue, which we know it's true, then what does he have to lose? Eating halal is healthier, praying keeps us from being lazy and have a clear mind, we treat people better, we don't gossip, paying zakaat is beneficial for us and for others etc. what's the worst that happens? He is a grown man, a father, he can handle it! I know some people respond well to harshness like this^, but you know your dad, say those things but in a way that HE will respond well to it.
