🇴🇲SALALAH, OMAN - Cristina is a remarkable lady who lives in Oman and recently converted to Islam.
She grew up in a typical Italian Catholic family. Initially, her conversion was a way of exploring the spiritual side of life that she felt was missing in her upbringing. However, as she continued to learn more about the religion, she found herself drawn to its teachings and values.
She was particularly attracted to the sense of community and support that Islam offered, which she found to be much more meaningful than anything she had experienced before. Over time, she has come to feel a great sense of joy and satisfaction in her chosen faith, and she is passionate about sharing her story with others.
She is an amazing friend who I will always be grateful to have in my life.

WHO AM I?
In 1999 I volunteered in an orphanage in Kenya and it changed my life. I then worked in Albania with unprivileged girls and kids for 3 years. I came back to Italy and started teaching at primary school but I wasn't happy.
So in 2010 I took the decision to follow my passion, not my pension. I first volunteered in Cambodia for a year, then opened a blog and travelled around South East Asia, China, Iran and Oman, always showing the lives of real locals, away from the tourist spots.
My goal - my mission in life - has always been to inspire people to be brave, follow their passion, open their minds and discover the kindness of other people and cultures.
#oman #islam #convertedtoislam
Amazing story, I converted 17 years ago, best decision ever. There is more than one hadith about covering the face, it's not culture, it's from Islam. And in Quran it's clear order to wear the hijab, which is not just scarf, but full body, dressing modestly is a blessing anyway and an honour.
Covering the face is not from Islam. Proof: you cannot pray with your face covered, you cannot perform the pilgramage/hajj or Umrah with face covered.
You do not guide whom you love, but God guides whom He wills, and He knows best those who are guided (56)

Your car made me laugh so much 😂😂😂 . What a beautiful story!! It was great hearing an Italian point of view about Islam. I met another Italian, years ago, she wasn't Muslim, but she did read the Coran and she was telling me how Islam is a religion that talks about peace. 💛
I’m happy you loved her story! Regarding my car, I laugh myself anytime I drive it 😂
Thank you so much for this video. I'm also Italian and Muslim, so it was completely refreshing to listen to your friend's story. I appreciate how you really gave her the time to explain her story so completely. Brava, grazie! xxx
Prego! 😊it was a pleasure for me to listen to her story and tell it to the world
Hey, I am will to come to Italy for my further studies would it be okay if I wear a niqab ?
Interesting question. On August 2, 2011, the Italian Parliament's Constitutional Affairs Committee approved a draft law banning women from wearing full-face veils in public. The ban includes the burqa and the niqab but also for example a motorbike helmet. It basically prohibits the use of protective headgear or any other means to make recognition of a person difficult, in public places or places open to the public, without justified reason.
@@toohappytobehomesick oh I guess that included universities as well right,
It’s a place open to public so I guess yes, I am sorry
I became muslims 2 years ago, Subscribing!!!
🙏🏽🧡🧡God bless you!
Am from salalah hope i can meet cristina somedays to thank her for good words.
You can find her on instagram at @cristinacollodel
@@toohappytobehomesick thank you
I was so invested in her story and her confidence in her belief 😊
Alhamdulillah that Omanis made you feel home that and just like you said we are all brothers and sisters.
May Allah bless you and guid us all to the right path 🌹
Elizabeth I want see u also become muslim❤❤❤
I had friend in my class became muslim. He s from sydney but his heritage was italian. I am muslimvaran but married to samoan/cook islander muslim. He s polynesian revert man who grew up in the islands but moved to Australia at the age of 18
Thanks for sharing! 💖
What a great journey, interview, and story. After hearing her story, I will become a better Muslim 🙏💕. Thanks for posting it Eli 🤗
That’s great to hear! I’ll show your comment to Cristina, I’m sure she will be super happy 🦋🌺❤️
@@toohappytobehomesickYou see, being born into a Muslim family you become Muslim by default, but becoming a Muslim is different as it takes lots of deep thinking and self reflection before you finally decide what is the right path for me. Therefore, it was eyes opening for me to hear from Cristina!
You are absolutely right. Not all people are willing to explore and understand and work on themselves, whatever religion they choose to follow. Thanks for your words! ❤
@@Minji100thank you so much!! I appreciate your comment. ❤
I m italian revert too
May Allah give you peace and shower his rehmat on you , ameen

Thank you 😊
Love your vid..natural and spontaneous. which makes it funny and enjoyable.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing!! I hope you enjoy your stay in Oman
Thanks from both of us 😊
Peace be upon you, Eliza. Christina is right, and she has found the correct path that every person must follow, and God has sworn by that that there is no human being on this planet who has not been offered Islam. God is for this blessing Islam is the direct communication between you and God and after every prayer you will have reached the connection with your Lord and the heart will be reassured,
This is a fact, and you can learn easily, and read the biography of the pure Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, and I wish you a peaceful life
Thank you for your kind thoughts ❤️
This is my pleasure. You should take a moment to understand what Islam is. It is a real religion and it really deserves to be embraced. It is not fake or invented by man. It is direct from God the Creator. I advise you to start with the biography of the Messenger Muhammad, and then read the Qur’an. I guarantee that if you read it, you will be fully convinced that it is TRUE .
Amazing story very inspirational
May Allah keep you steadfast and grant you Jannah.
May Allah guide Eli to islam
Ameen
🙏🏽

Thanks for sharing you lovely and inspiring story
Glad you enjoyed it!
Mashallah! May Allah bless you and your friend Cristina. I can completely relate to her story, we have so many similarities, and my name is also Kristina. I’ve lived in Oman for almost 8 years but I’ve moved to the US. But insha’Allah I will go back to Oman. I wasn’t born there but it is my home. Alhamdulillah 🥰
Wonderful! I guess it’s kind of a shock to go to live in the US after 8 years in Oman! God bless you 🤍
Wow! This video is one of the great video. I watched full video for {(25.33m)×2 time}. It make my heart so peace. I am appreciate to you for your video.

Overall this entire video is enjoy and learning video ever. We are appreciate to you and your friend.❤❤❤ A great society hope that. Think you sooom!!!🎉
You made my day with this comment, thank you so much!! 💜💜😊
What an amazing video.
God Bless you both.
This is such a lovely story.
Thank you so much 🙏🏼💖
Emotional this video ☺
Glad you liked it Eva 😊
Thats great... Welcome to Islam. You made a great decision, im sure ull never regret it. Help other Italian people to understand how importnt it is. Goos luck
Very refreshing to watch two ladies enjoying themselves! Can you answer my following questions?
1. Have you experienced racism or arrogance in people there?
2. How strong is the language barrier if one doesn't speak Arabic? How difficult it gets.
3. Isn't weather too hot there to be enjoying tea? Is it tolerable to hang out in summer?
Thank you in advance, may Allah reward you and keep you well.
Hi! 😊
1. I have never experienced any racism or arrogance in Oman since 2012. There surely are some arrogant people also here like anywhere in the world, but generally speaking omani are very kind
2. I’ve never had any problem here language wise because many people speak English. Sometimes there was some communication problem with the Bedouin women in Ash Sharqiya sands or with some people in Salalah mountains. However, even if you don’t speak Arabic you can live here with no issues.
3. The weather is extremely hot in the north only in summer, from May to August, with temperatures that can go up to 50 degrees like nowadays in certain parts of the countries. AC is e everywhere though. Tea can be sipped outside from October to April
@@toohappytobehomesick Thank you for the response. I am an Engineering student of Water technology and Environment in Germany, and for some reason, I do not feel at home here.
This is why I am considering Oman for future residence, given its conservative lifestyle, job market in water infrastructure and treatment.
So far, the weather is the only factor that scares me.
Let's see what the future holds.
T.C
Good luck! I advise you to come to Oman first and feel if the country is for you. I’m from north Italy and the weather is freezing in winter but after a while I adapted very well to the Omani weather. You will, too!
@@toohappytobehomesick I like italians. Thank you for the advice, I'll consider it
Masha Allah Sister you are Muslim. Enjoy your beautiful day!
From Iraq, with pleasure to invite you to visit my country ... regards
Iraq is on my list! I can’t wait - I should definitely organise a trip to Iraq
Bellissima testimonianza ❤
Aiuta a vedere la sua religione sotto un’altra luce
You You milktae lover and good message.

Thank you! ☺️
You are beautiful Mashaallah ❤may Allah guide you as well ameen
Thank you so much 😊
Respect
Marshallah I feel I must join you on this journey Sisters! InshaAllah, when Elizabetha plans a new video about getting a job or becoming a volunteer in Selalah, or how to survive because one has to have food, accommodation, not be a nuisance but contribute etc
Hello! Do you live in Salalah? I’m just leaving Salalah tonight, but if you’d like to be in my video I’ll make one with you next time I come ❤️it would be my pleasure, let me know!
Maasha'allaah tabaarakallaah.
My god bless you Cristina.
Elizabeth thank you sister for the geat video .
My pleasure 😇🩷
the video is lovely, and the story is fantastic, I have to say to the sister, the universe is a creation, so it is not part of Allah Almighty, Allah Almighty is the God, who created everything .. (He is Allah, the One and Only; Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him.)
Thank you so much 😀
Mashallah beautiful story. Welcome to islam my sister amen.
I’m happy you liked it!
Alhamdulillah muslim ❤❤❤
Video Meraviglioso, compimenti ad entrambe !!!!!!!
Grazie! 😊
Grazie!! Cerchiamo di dare un messaggio di pace universale 🥰
MA.SHA ALLAH
Regarding hijab, Arabic women used to cover up even before Islam, but they don't spread the head scarf on their chests, so, the verse of hijab in Quraan order them to be more modest and spread the scarves to their chests! Sunnah (prophet's saying, actions) is another source of Islam, so what prophet did we follow! Happy sister you have your inner peace and follow the right path!
I am enjoying both of you...wish we can three can explore KSA In Sha ALLAH ❤😊
I hope so too!! 🥰🥰🥰
@@toohappytobehomesick soon❤️🙏
فيدوهات رائعة 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💖💖
I’m happy you liked it 😊
Can you imagine living rent free in any country in Europe?
Allah says in Quran, put your khimar. Khimar is head scarf. So yes it's written in Quran. For example Nur 31 ayah.
about going inside the Masjed , you actually can go in as none muslim it's okay as long you're not there for " fun doing bad things " it's ok because you're in need ,waiting for your friend , drinking water or any needs that Masjed can provide for you .
That’s good to know for next time 🙏🏽
Amazing vlog and such a wonderful story to hear!
Just for clarification Hijab is not a part of an Arabian culture like she said but it's a part of Islamic culture.
The Quran as well the Sunnah do obligate men and women to cover themselves in these cases:
Its obligatory for women to cover their whole body except the face and the hands in front of non-mahram (all men except the husband and his father and his sons, her father, grandpas, brothers, sons, grandsons, uncles, nephews, and stepfather). she can show her legs (not including the thighs) and her whole arm and hand, her neck and her hair in front of mahram. in front of women, she has to cover the area between the navel and the knee.
men have to cover their body between the navel and the knee in front of everyone. but it's better to cover the chest and the back especially in front of women.
married couple can see their whole partner body.
In Islam not doing an obligatory deed or doing a prohibited action means that you are sinful, but it doesn't necessary mean that you're going to hell, cause God may forgive these sins.
Nice video I am Kashif from Pakistan
Thanks and welcome!
Dear sister, there is a vers in the holy Quran which says a woman should cover herself from top of the head to the toe down .
What about the men? Shouldn’t they cover as well?
Ma Marwa CONGRATULATİONS !!! First time watching this episode, You have been invited to ISLAM by ALLAH ...
We should all have mistakes or faults but following the Prophet's words / advices and life practice who was the perfect Islam example and translation of Qoran to human beings' life will take us to success the best of belief.
About hijab which is a must but not traditional, would you please Recheck
Soraa / Chapters : A'râf 26-27, Noor 30-31, 60, Ahzâb 33 ve 59
Actually its obligatory to wear the hijab but no one can force you to wear, it has to be your own choice since its something between you and God
Engine is like a Ferrari 😅 lovely humor
😂😂
Correction : As a non - Muslim, you can go inside the Mosque!
True, I discovered it later, thanks!! 😃
0:36 Your Subaru is cool actually, cooler than a Ferrari 😉
Ahahah I prefer my Subaru eh eh 😎😅

Pls you understand about Bagavath Geeta of Hindus
I am neither Muslim nor Hindu but I received the Bagavath Gita while I was in India 😊
Pemasiri sri Lanka madam Good.❤
WELCOME TO ISLAM SISTER. ALHAMDULLILAH SWT OPENED YOUR HEART TO THE ONLY CORRECT WORDS OF ALLAH SWT LEFT ON EARTH AND THE LAST MERCY TO HUMANITY BEFORE THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT.
I'm sure she has a pure heart and she did not mean it or she means something else but I want to clear that Allah who creat the universe he is not the universe sorry.
I told her and she replied that yes, she didn’t mean that but she finds it difficult to explain her thought in English 🙏🏽
Islam religon the real religion ❤❤
I believe there’s no real religion, since anything we believe in is respectable. We will discover what is real only when we die ☺️
Islam is the only authentic religion in the world as Allah Himself has taken this guarantee that not a single word or comma or sentence is changed or can be changed till the end of this universe or qayamat and the other religious texts have been corrupted or altered by people with time .. and this life is like a drop in an ocean ,the afterlife after death is the one that is indefinite and that is the reward that we get if we follow a noble and a life according to quran and hadith and Muslims live this life according to Islam to get the rewards for that afterlife and we Muslims have a strong faith in Allah ,his book and his prophet and you cannot find this strong faith in other religions or people..May Allah give you hidayath and you chose the right path i.e Islam
she is allowed to in the mosque
You’re right, she made a mistake here
Offcourse kadak chai
You know I’m a tea and chai lover ☕️😀

In the Koran Allah said muslim women should wear Hijab
Ciao Cristina tutto e verita come hai spiegato

Tanti saluti eselamualejkum ❤❤❤❤Voglo venire a Oman❤❤❤❤
Hahaha. Yoga Mat versus Yellow Yoga Mat. The yellow one is more special one.

For your information, Islam is the only religion that recognizes and respects the rights of women, and gives them a high status so that they can be respected by their children, husband, and society. I want to add another piece of information. We read in the Qur’an that there were books that God revealed to the prophets who preceded Muhammad, such as the Bible, the Torah, the Psalms, the Qur’an, and the Torah is the book. The one who was sent down to Jesus, who preceded Islam, and all religions with God are Islam, but with the difference of civilizations and histories, they were called by different names, but the books that Christ has now with what is called the Bible is completely fake, and we can verify that because there are more than one copy and each one differs from the other, but The Qur’an is one and cannot be forged, because if it is forged, any Muslim can notice it because they memorize it in their hearts.
Hallo
The Quran said believing women to cover up.
What was Christiana's muslim name❤❤❤
Cristina’s Muslim name is Marwa ☺️
Jesus is the way the truth and the life period and I will pray for you, it’s amazing so many Muslims are turning to Jesus. You obviously didn’t do your research
Is cristina have youtube channel or any social media accounts you can share
She has no RUclips channel. Her Instagram is @cristinacollodel
can you get me a job in Salalah?
You should really go to Salalah in person and look for it. I’ve never found a job abroad without being physically there
i was twice , as Omani's say I need connection@@toohappytobehomesick
What job are you looking for and where are you from?
teach or any suitable job, I am from USA@@toohappytobehomesick
Saif
Hello Saif!
At the time of the video, all questions about Islam ended, even though your nose happens to be of Abrahamic origin
- In fact, Islam or the book of Islam (the Qur’an) is the teachings that were revealed to our master Abraham and the commandment of the covenant that was revealed to the Prophet of God, Moses, and was abrogated in the Holy Qur’an, as well as what came in the revolution and what came in the Bible. Al-Karim is today from 1400 years to today, no text or word has changed in it, and it was confirmed 1400 years ago, there was no printing or widespread codification, even though the ancient Roman state was based on the guardianship of the covenant of our master Moses, and it was called the Law of Solagh
He went back and confirmed the last version of the Bible that was corrected during the time of the British King Arthur, while the Qur’an is the same and has not changed.
[12] From the Almighty’s saying: {On the Day We roll up the sky like a record for the books} verse 104 to His saying: {And We did not send you except as a mercy to the worlds} verse 107
- And the record is the same as Einstein mentioned the same rug
The other thing is that the hijab is the same as the dress of the Virgin Mary, peace be upon her and her father, the Lord Christ, may God’s peace be upon him and his nation
Well I feel sorry for you,the devil is collecting through them. You should really read their book they made up 600 yrs ago.
Still not Muslim I pray 😂
😅
I feel ashamed ☺️
Don’t! Your story is a positive message to the world, it helps fighting prejudices and understanding what real Islam is. You are great!
@@toohappytobehomesick inshallah 🤲
Is this acount of cristina ?
Yes is me @@mhodqq9221

Aslam Alaikum to the Italian Muslim sister driving the car. You probably don't know much about Afghanistan. The people there are straight followers of Islam. The government there is trying its best to implement the Islamic system. But at the moment they are worried about the economy. The wrong image of Islam has been distorted by the media of America and Europe and not presented by Afghanistan or Muslims. Ask Allah enough and repent. May Allah grant you the opportunity to speak good things, Ameen
We hope to visit Afghanistan soon if possible to film nice videos about your country
@@toohappytobehomesick Dear sister, welcome from the heart and soul, and yes, Afghanistan has no traditions or culture of its own, our Islam is our tradition, n culture that's why three major world powers They bombarded us, such as Britain, Russia, and finally the United States.
It is completely foolishness just like very foolish Diana did.💯🤭😜
Who are we to judge?
Search for the true Islam, not the Islam that they are fighting to spread because it is realistic and real, and not like the false religions that are distorted in order to match their whims and desires. Islam is the true religion that does not accept change, and no human can change it or change a single letter of the Qur’an, and I am sorry for you. To search, to be realistic with yourself and your heart, and to take a place for yourself when you die. Go to research and do not listen to those who try to give you false information. Islam is the religion that was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, and it is the word of God. You cannot find a book in this life that contains the words of the Creator

Islam is a Brutal and Tri bal dust bin
