By the time I was 16 I became very devout and religious myself. The church was like a home away from home. I enjoyed it thoroughly.<\/p>\n<p> I had read and studied the Bible on a regular basis. All the while I was noticing many errors in the Bible. Many conflicting stories. So I would ask my grandmother or the pastor of the church about it, but would never get a solid answer.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> I was told to just brush it off and not worry about these little details that weren\u2019t adding up. So for a time I did.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> Later on in my early 20s I was appointed as Youth Pastor at my local church. It was during this time that my biblical studies had become intense. The more I studied, the more questions I had.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> Due to the lack of answers I was not getting from the church, I decided to enroll into Bible  College. \u201cFor sure I would find my answers there,\u201d I often thought to myself. Again, no such luck.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> Nothing could ease my mind and so I decided to step down from \u201cYouth Pastor\u201d. I felt I could no longer lead the youth since I was confused and doubting things myself. I was the one in need of a leader. My heart was crying out to find some peace in all this confusion.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> One night I turned on the TV and happened to flip straight to CNN. They were reporting straight from Iraq. Then, there in the background I saw the most beautiful woman I had ever seen.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> She was adorned only in black from head to toe. She was so modest, and to me that made her so beautiful. I knew that she was a Muslim but I didn\u2019t know what the religious beliefs of Muslims were. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> I was more caught up in her clothing attire. It sparked my interest more than anything. My heart immediately desired to be like her. Pious and modest. So this is where my search began.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> I immediately got online and searched \u201cMuslim Woman Dress\u201d &#038; \u201cMuslim Woman Face Veil\u201d. This is when I came across the words \u201cHijab\u201d and \u201cNiqab\u201d. Wikipedia also referred to the women who wore it as Hijabis or Niqabis. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> These hijabis and niqabis were my newly-found role models. So I immediately changed all my online nicknames to \u201chijabi\u201d or \u201cniqabi\u201d. It had not occurred to me to investigate the beliefs of Islam yet. But it was soon to come\u2026.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> One afternoon my neighborhood was having a community cookout. I was setting next to my closest neighbor and we somehow got on the subject of religion.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> He said \u201cYou know us Christians will probably be in trouble when we stand before God?\u201d<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> I just nodded in agreement but not really sure where he was going with this.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> He said, \u201cYeah, you know those Muslims pray 5 times a day faithfully and we Christians can barely make time to pray once a day.\u201d<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> More curiosity sparked!<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> I immediately excused myself and ran back to my home. I opened the Computer and began searching the Internet about Muslim beliefs. I was amazed at their beliefs as it seemed to fit in line with mine.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> But I wanted to be sure there were no surprises hidden in their beliefs; you know nothing that was going to throw me for a loop if I choose to convert.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> The following weeks I drove to the closest mosque, which happened to be 50 miles away, requesting information. I searched the Internet into the wee hours of the morning reading all about Islam. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> After a couple of months of researching and reading, I decided that I want to convert. I drove back to the mosque and took the Shahadah! A peace entered my heart and soul like never before. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><em>Subhanallah<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p> By Latasha<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p> Islamreligion.co<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am an American who grew up in a strict religious Christian family.
