I live in the west and I'm constantly surrounded by people who aren't believers. I'm quite okay with this but the problem begins when I'm constantly ridiculed for holding on to my faith. I always feel like I'm being viewed in a certain way, as though I'm backwards and I'm a "crazy religious Imam" or "joining ISIS" from both muslims and non muslims alike. Not to say everyone is like that but enough to make me question my own sanity. Throughout it all I've had to console myself by remembering that this has been prophesized and that people simply lack understanding. No one wants to hear my ideologies (I've never tried to convert anyone but being able to engage in discussions about deep and meaningful things make me feel good about myself) and I abhor the idea of always talking about sex, drugs, and parties. I've also suffered from a deep hatred for others because of this but thanks to a lot of changes recently - part of it being this sub - I've been feeling more "normal". I feel like I'm not alone. I can come here and talk about my religion instead of always having to bottle it up. For this, I feel like I owe you all a level of gratitude. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
May Allah bless you all and guide you towards Jannah.
