Hello dear born Muslims brothers and sisters, please dont rush new muslims to do things overnight, let them grow with Islam in their own pace.
You are right
Yeah you are right
Earlier the better

@@klaw1425 I was trying say that, start doing things one by on, start one prayer and perfect it, and than start one or two more and perfect them. Finally you start to perform five time. Like the same with fasts and Tasbeeh, tanks for commenting. I am Muslim scholar you can ask me for inquiries and questions about Islam. I will be glad.
Wa alaykum asalam. This month also marks a year since I took my shahada and embraced islam. It definitely has gotten easier as time goes on, at first it was hard but alhamdulillah it's been the best decision of my life ❤❤
@Tyler B #2 ask ur mom who is ur biological dad u r gonna be surprised by the answer 🤣
@Tyler B #2 the marriage is correct but the figure is not accurate. The prophet birth date himself was 570/571 ad.
@Tyler B #2 lie..prove Aisha was exactly 9 or any age.
Salem alikom. Welcome to you at this beautiful religion. MashAllah. So happy for you. Islam is the true. Take care. Elhamdoulela. ALLAHOUAKBAR. SubhanAllah. Twaklat a3la Allah.
@Tyler B #2
And they were happily married and their married life is an example for others to emulate from 1400 years ago, remove the names and read their love and married life and you’ll understand. Their age difference was and is not an issue even for their enemies, except you’ve made it an issue.
I took my shahada two nights ago, ive been watching your videos for a while and they’ve helped me so much. I’m so thankful for you sharing your journey and I’m so excited for my own to now unfold
May Allah bless you now you will be tested by dif problm but you have to be more patience and search heart peace in prayers
MASHA ALLAH. May ALLAH make your journey easy and a happy one IN SHA ALLAH
That’s amazing Sapphic .. we’re here for you Inshallah.. May Allah shower you with his love n mercy always. 🙏🏽💓
Congrats.. 👍👍
Congratulations
Ellie, I'm a revert nearly a year alhamduliliah!
It's been a mixed journey. Culture versus religion mainly and knowing the difference.
I've had kind words and support. I'm learning the Arabic phrases and sunnah, and slowly.....it's helping. I love my religion and although I've lost a few friends and family, I feel it's the right path and those people I thought were friends, obviously were not. I love your content Ellie! Khadijiah xx
MashaAllah
God bless you sister.. you're doing great, keep up the good work 🤍
may ALLAH help protect bless and keep you and everyone who claims or thinks to be a Muslim on His right path of Islam ameen ya Rabb Al-Alameen summa ameen
well yes culture vs The Deen is a bit of a thing so they should be really separated Islam doesn't have a problem with cultures unless they're unIslamic but infiltrating culture into Islam and saying that it's part of Islam is wrong too
as-salamo aleikum
Wa Alikom asalam sister! Mashallah you look so radiant and I love your dress 💞
As a new revert (reverted last month) I find your videos so helpful and keep coming back to them for advice. Especially your video which mentioned Salah! So inspiring 😄🕋💞 Alhamdulilah today was the first time I prayed all 5 prayers as a Muslim!
Ma Shaa Allah
Welcome sister 💜
MashaAllah Allah bless u sister InshaAllah
Welcome sister ❤
May Allah bless you and the whole ummah 🤲🏻

MashaAllah you should be proud of yourself. It gets easier with time and consistency.
Wa Alaykum Asalam. I reverted nearly three years ago and this year i have begun to wear the Hijab, as I started to feel ready to begin this part of my journey allhamduliah.
Seeing you wear the hijab has bumped up my confidence to wear it around my friends and eventually my family inshallah. Thank you for your amazing content as always 💜.
Good luck to u.....🏃♀️🏃♀️
Salem alikom. The hijab is a beauty, we feel like a Tresor, I love it as well.
You converted not reverted, you're vulnerable
@@OliverLucasMartinEdwards
You are incorrect. I did revert and I am proud to have done so, and I am
proud to call myself a revert.
A belief within Islam Is the belief that we are born with a natural faith in Allah (SWT).
Once you take the shahada (declaration of faith) we revert back to our innate state. (Allah SWT forgive me for any mistakes made in the above paragraph). Please note, this is my belief and no words of yours will stray me from this allhamduliah.
Secondly, How do you know I’m vulnerable? What suggests in the above that I am a vulnerable woman? That is really not something for you to judge, especially based off one comment on the internet.
Instead of telling me that I am vulnerable, even though I am not, and that I am not a revert, you should spend that time focusing on yourself rather than trying to put strangers down on the internet. Or even better, helping people who are actually vulnerable.
@@maryahmed8269 Nope, you're a convert, nobody is born Muslim, that's what you're forced to believe, yes you're vulnerable
She looks more beautiful with every video! So sooo pretty with the hijab Maa Sha Allah 😭😭❤❤
9:40 hey same here!! I was wearing it in small portions then I got use to it. If you keep pushing yourself here and there it will be part of your identity. I'm so happy your able to do this. I'm a revert a lil over a year and half ago xoxo
Thank you for you videos on being a revert. I'm a Mormon and considering on converting to Islam. But, I'm concerned how my family and my church would react/treat me.
Dear Brother, reverting is a life changing decision. However you're making this decision for Allah (God The Most High). You want to be more closer to your creator and worship Him the way He should be worshiped. Therefore, don't let what anyone would say stop you from serving your Lord.
Therefore, I'd suggest you tell them (Your Parents) now that you're researching and learning about Islam. This would prepare their minds. And try to become a better person to them. Like becoming more humble, responsible, responsive to them, care and love them more. Seeing these changes in you would prompt them to wonder. And when they finally know that you're living or treating them according to how Islam commands, their hearts would soften and they'd definitely support you. May Allah make it easy for you. Aameen 🙏.
@@SalamAbass thank you for your words.
Your family/church might not accept it at all and treat you in a very negative way. Maybe you should keep your conversion a secret for some time.
Brother Aron. The truth stays always a truth. What about if you are wrong or mistaken and all the world is with u. and if u r on right and the whole world is against u. Allah said in the holly quran speaking about your situation ( do you fear people and allah deserves to be feared the most) and said also ( and among people those who fear people exactly the same as they fear allah) so brother if u r convinced of being muslim just never look back because no one can help u in the time of death neither family nor church but only allah. May allah make it easy for u. AMEEN.
Much interesting content here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_and_Mormonism?wprov=sfla1
Hi Ellie thank you for this video. The part that resonated most with me is when you said "you want to be yourself...but muslim". That is so important...I think both myself and my family and friends were afraid that if I embraced Islam, I would lose my true self to the religion. But this whole time I've been fighting to show that Islam can instead serve to enhance who I am, as opposed to causing me to drift away from the essence of who I am.
just wait ...and you'll see. One thought: thousand of women are right now oppressed by this religion and nobody seems to care about it including women here in this platform. ;(
WOMEN STATUS IN ALTERED,CHANGED BIBLES👇👇👇
Once again we see that women were not allowed to assume positions of leadership or authority within the church. In 1 Timothy Paul wrote:
Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments but rather by means of good works, as befits women making a claim to godliness. Let a woman quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet (1 Tim. 2:9-12).
In 1 Corinthians we read:
As in all the churches of the saints, let the women keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but let them subject themselves, just as the law also says. And if they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is improper for a woman to speak in church (1 Cor. 14:33b-35).
The uniform practice of the churches; then, was that women should not take leadership in the church meeting. They were not to teach or to exercise authority, nor were they to engage in questions. They are to subject themselves, as the law teaches, Paul said.
Witchcraft and Women
While men also feature in the infamous 15th century witch-hunting manual Malleus Maleficarum (The Hammer of the Witches), the work has long been recognised as deeply misogynistic. It suggests that women’s perceived lack of intelligence made them submissive to demons. One section reads:
Just as through the first defect in their [women’s] intelligence they are more prone to abjure the faith; so through their second defect of inordinate passions … they inflict various vengeances through witchcraft. Wherefore it is no wonder that so great a number of witches exist in this sex.
@@panolete May you find the true meaning of tranquility deep in your heart that you seek. Salam alaikum (Peace be upon you) ❤️
@@KhadijaIbex when did the truth become an illness???
@@violetskye7422 words that lacking empathy to those women subjugated by strict sharia laws in islamic countries are the proof of what I said ;(
Wa alaykum salaam😊 I have the same things as you, I really thought "yes, that's me" with kind of everything and I am now a Muslim for 2,5 years al hamdulillah!! And I still sometimes forget to say bismillah before eating, my Arabic is basically 0 (but from October I will have Arabic class In Sha Allah),... It's all a journey, we have to take little steps and then we will come where we want to come. I also thought "after one year, I will know so much!!" and I still know the same surahs after 2,5 years then I new when I was a Muslim for one year 😅 They just don't want to stick in my head, but I try to understand and pronounce the surahs I already know better then before and to apply them in my life In Sha Allah.
Al hamdulillah, I am so happy that we both are still practicing muslimahs and In Sha Allah will we become who we want to be and love Allah with our whole heart and body. Goodluck with everything and may Allah keep guiding us, make everything easy for us and make us of the people of Jannah! Ameen.
So heartening to listen to you after a long time.pls keep it up.
Aww sis you answered my question. I think you are incredibly brave to have come to our beautiful Islam ☪️❤ and its so interesting to hear about your journey and how you are navigating your way through. As a born Muslim I hand on heart pray that you continue your path to Allah with ease and comfort and may you inspire all of us to please The Almighty. 🙏
Salaam Ellie, thanks for sharing your story - I’m one of the brothers that follows you on RUclips so please continue to post and keep us updated on this journey of yours. Prayers from Canada.
You look so elegant in headscarf. Stay blessed always sis!!
I loved you as a Muslim sister anyway, but I can't tell you how happy and emotional I felt after seeing you in hijab. ❤❤❤

I can feel the happiness of being a Muslim on your face.Just like I felt.This happiness is felt more intensely while performing the hajj or umrah.Lots of tears of joy.May Allah grant you as well.In this secular world order, we normally have to have been elsewhere.But we are holding the rope of Allah.How grateful we are.Love from Turkey.

I took my shahada recently and I listen to the kids tutorials for the prayer which you also listen too! And it makes easy for me to 🙏 pray. And hopefully I can pray without the tutorials and watching your journey to the islam life gave me enough courage to continue what I started.
Ellie Asslamualykum...I love your videos and you are so articulate. I am a born Muslim, but have only recently started to pray frequently. Your videos and your journey is inspiring me to do better Mashallah. Thanks for posting this wonderful content. ❤
I’m so happy for you sister. May Allah increase you in knowledge faith and strength. Congratulations on the hijab. I’ve been following you on RUclips and I’ve been make Duaa for you.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts 💗
You look beautiful in a headscarf. May Allah reward you sister💛

Nour. You are shining dear. May Allah keeps you and all of us steadfast on this right path. Aameen
Huge respect to all sisters and brothers who have reverted to Islam, going through so many difficulties and struggles , and having the strength and courage to face the challenges ….May Allah reward you for your efforts!
May Allah bless, guide and protect the Ummah and give Hidaaya to non- Muslims…Aameen 😊
Assalamu aleikum, I never comment on videos, but I have to say the hijab suits you so much! I'm hoping to start wearing it soon too, Allah hafiz
i.e.: they were not able to benefit you, “except with something that God has written for you.” The meaning: Let you have knowledge and certainty that it will only be what God has ordained for you. You will not obtain a benefit except what God has written for you, and if all the people of the earth gather to benefit you, “and if they gather to harm you with something, they will not harm you except with something that God has decreed for you,” meaning that you know what you have to do with it. You will be harmed only by what God has decreed for you, and if all the people of the earth gather to harm you, and this is in agreement with the established ruling in the belief that their congregation to deliver benefit and harm without the will of God, the impossibility of what is sought from you, is that the meaning is absent from you. , the giver and the inhibitor Interdictions, Fear God in orders and prohibitions to find you in good deeds and acts of worship, and do not find you into sin, and the greatest preserved prayer and purity that is prayer, the key to keeping the head and awareness, which includes the preservation of hearing, sight and tongue taboo, keeping the abdomen and Hawa, and includes Remember the heart to insist on the taboo, as well as one of the greatest should be saved from the prohibitions of Allah Almighty: the vagina and to preserve and placed only in Halal, "Ihfezk", ie: If Atakith and saved it was your reward that shields you from the evils and sins and protect you in yourself and your family and the owner and Dink and your world, and protects you from the calamities of this world and the hereafter; God’s protection for His servants is of two types; One of them: His protection for the interests of this world, such as his protection for his body, his children, his family and his money. Whoever God preserves in his youth and strength, God will protect him in his old age and weak in strength, and he will enjoy his hearing, his sight, his strength, his strength and his intellect. The second type: God protects the servant in his religion and his faith, so he protects him during his life from misleading suspicions and forbidden desires, and protects his religion at his death, so he dies from this faith, and on the contrary; Whoever misses God, God will waste him, and he will be lost among his creation, until harm and harm will come upon him from those who hoped for his benefit from his family and others. Do obedience, and thank God for everything you do, and be confident and confident in Him, Glory be to Him, “and know that there is a lot of good in patience over what you dislike,” meaning that patience over adversities that he detests is a great reward for man, and that is the reward for which man detests. Victory with patience"; Patience is the key to all good with sincerity of intention to God, “and relief comes with distress, and with hardship comes ease,” meaning: God’s mercy for His servants is close, and He makes with tribulation and adversity no matter how difficult it may be for him.
All of this is from the prophetic education of the nation. To deal honestly with God, to observe Him in all of its actions, and not to fear anything other than Him, Glory be to Him; It is both beneficial and harmful, and she should raise her children on these good concepts, so that they can grow up and grow up on them.
And in the hadith: The urge to preserve God Almighty in His commands and prohibitions Known to God in prosperity knows you in distress ", meaning: Make God knows you obey him, and to work with Oolak of grace; it is the Almighty will reward you when distress and the need for him in this world and the hereafter," If you ask, ask God ", ie: If you want to ask something, do not Ask only from God, “and if you seek help, then seek help from God,” meaning: and if you want help, do not ask for help except from God.
You are doing great mashallah , the prophet peace upon his said “ the best of you is he who grows older in age and better in deed “ altirmidi The main thing is we become better today than we’re were yesterday , better this year than the last ✌️
Alhamdullillah, at last what I wish to see you in hijab, sis. Its happening. May Allah shower you with more strength as muslimah. Slow and steady but consistent is more effective, once again Alhamdullillah from Singapura. 😇
Mashallah you there is Noor on your face! And what a wonderful example for all of us, may Allah swt bless you more and more
Good to see you back sister. Love your video's and good to see you with hijab, Mashallah 🙏🧕
ASA I’m a new revert and so much of your videos resonates with my own journey. It gives me hope. I watch the kids video to learn wudu.
Hi Ellie, thank you for the videos. I am on the stage of understating Islam and converting. Since I was born in a Taiwanese family, all of my family are Buddhism(even myself). It has been struggling to face this big change. Really appreciate that you are sharing your journey.
Lovely video and lovely hijab❤️❤️may Allah strengthen your Eman. Love you alot from Egypt
I know I'm late in finding your channel, but Duolingo has been very helpful for me in learning Arabic. It is very easy to use.
Salaam alaikum. It is a good thing that you are becoming more comfortable wearing hijab. This is good. In time you may become comfortable covering your hair completely. Many women who have come to Islam have said that it takes them time to be completely comfortable with full hijab, so don't let the rigorists put you off.
Alhamdulillah..I’m proud of you sister ✌️
you have become an ideal muslim ellie. Maşallah 😍🌹

@@olorunfunmiomotola1701 I agree with you. Being a good human and having respect for others is the basics. But i believe the hijab is not opposed to that. Actually it is related 😊 if we work on our inside, logically the oustide should follow.

May Allah bless you. The Hijab will continue to be a part of your journey for the rest of your life InshaAllah
Ma sha Allah... Alhamdulillah...
I didn't realise it has been 1 year, boy does time flies. A slow process is the best way, you will make some changes coming into Islam but always do it one step at the time. It is not easy trying to adapt to what you was used to especially with the social pub culture that we have here in the UK. When I reverted back to Islam I was still listening to my R&B and HipHop music and dancing even though I did stop going to nightclubs but gradually I did give all that up and focused on studying Quran, Tafsir,, Seerah and Hadiths.
love for you❤️❤️
alhamdulillah, you are my innocent sister. Allah protects you from difficulties and creates
happiness in this world and in akhirah. ameen
