Guest: Abdullah. Abdullah is a secondary school Maths teacher. He is from London and originally from Ireland. He converted to Islam 2 weeks ago. He had been practising Islam for a few months before he decided to convert. He was doing the Islamic prayer and even tried fasting all before converting. Abdullah grew up agnostic and never really had a religious inclination. He always felt there was a gap in his life. Then he met a Muslim and started talking about Islam and God. This changed his life forever. In this episode Abdullah talks about: How he converted to Islam when he was in lockdown by himself in his own home Learning to do the Islamic prayer before he converted The spirituality he gained through the prayer, which in turn helped him to convert How his parents will feel when he breaks the news His final advice: Natural disposition (fitra) is built into all of us to be a good person - your own self is denying you from doing it Search out the answers - Islam gives all the answers Try to start practising before you convert to see if you like it Make sure your intention is right before you convert - that you are doing it for God Don't wait too long to do it, if you have the faith in your heart then do it as soon as possible About the Becoming Muslim Podcast Do you have questions about Islam?

Guest: Kadijah Michelle. Today's guest is Kadijah. In this episode we discuss: Information on how she had been involved in her Catholic faith. Her upbringing in the Catholic church. Difficulties with some of the practices in the Catholic church. How she learned about the doctrine changes in the Catholic church over time. When she realized her disbelief in her Catholic faith, she discusses how this impacted her and her values. How she first learned about Islam through her religion class in high school. Her first encounter with Muslims. Her first visit to her local Masjid. How she was able to further learn about Islam through reading and asking questions of other Muslims. Her shahadah and her first Ramadan. The process of learning about Islam and how knowledge in Islam is an ongoing process. How difficult it was to learn to pray and how few other Muslims she initially encountered. Receiving advice from those who may not have knowledge versus those who do. Work/life balance. Building an Islamic library to increase knowledge. Wearing and not wearing the hijab, and the reasons to wear hijab. Judging others and the 'Haram Police'. This is what Kadijah says: My name is Kadijah, but I was born Michelle Kastriba. I converted the day before Ramadan in 2004 when I was 24 years old, and I will be 41 in a couple months. I grew up as an Army Brat. I was born on a Military Installation in West Germany (it was still the Cold War), and moved frequently between the U.S. and Europe as a child until my father retired from the Army and we settled in Pennsylvania in 1995. For several years, I was a pharmacy technician until I decided to go to college to pursue a degree in Economics, and I am currently a Junior at Penn State. I am also a proud and happy homemaker. I am an avid reader, and I love crochet. I am extremely passionate about volunteering and also empowering women. Most of my volunteering has been fundraising activities for Muslim organization including several years that organized and led many campaigns for my local Islamic School. Through the years, I have been asked by different groups in the Harrisburg, PA area to speak about my experiences as a Muslim including a panel at the Harrisburg Masjid and also at Harrisburg Area Community College. Lately, though, I have stepped back from volunteering and fundraising to focus on gaining knowledge. My focus now is to become an Islamic Educator for Women. I believe we desperately need them. I think what is most important about my experience is that I was born and raised Catholic. Even though I went to Church and Catholic school, I always felt something wasn't right, and I would pray for God to guide me. I grew in a military household at the end of the Cold War and the beginning of the War on Terror. Before I became a Muslim, my family and I had a very negative opinion of Islam and it's followers because that was the culture that we were exposed to. Then I started working as a clerk with two wonderful Muslims, and I started learning that Islam is not what happened on September 11, but so much more...it was the answer to my prayers. Alhumdilillah.
