MashaAllah i resonate with this ...Assalamualaikum,<br /><br />MashaAllah i resonate with this so much. It doesnt have to be a revert sister to experience this transition. Sometimes making a choice to change your lifestyle or at least your attire from a non-hijabi to a hijabi requires u to assess friendships and ud come to a conclusion on who are worth keeping and who aren't. Alhamdulillah a few of my friendships from pre-hijab days are still worth keeping. You'd be surprised at how accepting your true friends are about your choice. They are often the friends who would remain supportive of whatever decisions you make that would make you happy. They are the ones who know the real you beyond your partying. I agree that "replacement" friends are important, friends who would walk hand in hand with you in your journey to strengthen your iman. But how about keeping those meaningful friends who've known u back in the days, the ones who'd understand you. while at the same time,gaining new friendships with sisters who'd actively seek u out when there are Islamic talks and Islamic events or who you know would be there to assist you in your spiritual pursuits.<br /><br />Wassalam.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592940650694664042.post-67300520608804682882012-02-16T17:57:44.654-06:002012-02-16T17:57:44.654-06:00your such an inspirationyour such an inspirationAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592940650694664042.post-23030993800816743322011-12-28T16:28:15.116-06:002011-12-28T16:28:15.116-06:00AsSalam Alaikum Nicole,

Then 2 years ago, I met a man who became my husband, moved across the country and started a business. In recent years, all my original replacement friends have spread through the country and I have not yet replaced my replacement friends. And to be honest, I don't have any new friends here, Muslim or non-Muslim. Sometimes, it gets sad and lonely and other times, I really don't notice because of my crazy schedule. I miss my friends but I haven't sought out new friends either because I've been so busy trying to get my business off the ground and nurturing my marriage. I've felt it wouldn't be fair to the "new" friends if I wasn't around to work on the friendships. Insha'Allah I'll find new (local)replacement friends when the time is right.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548665206834577808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592940650694664042.post-90813991190649442942011-02-21T16:48:04.727-06:002011-02-21T16:48:04.727-06:00Assalamu alaikum Ukhti Nicole.Jazak Allahu khayran...Assalamu alaikum Ukhti Nicole.Jazak Allahu khayran for this blog and all you contribute to the muslimah's out there!

You have a very nice blog. I ...Assalam Wailaikum! <br /><br />You have a very nice blog. I can relate to everything you just wrote in this post. I converted to Islam about a year ago, and I'm still kind of looking for some new friends who share the same interests, goals, and want to live an Islamic life. I met a few women at my 'new Muslim' classes, but our schedules are so different that we hardly get to hang out.<br /><br /> The other day some really nice girls (non-muslim) invited me out for margaritas with them. Of course I didn't go, but I must admit that I kind of wanted to.....just to have some women my age to talk to. They have so much fun together every weekend, and I don't have that anymore. Until that moment, I never realized how much I missed female companionship. Having consistent friends with similar life-goals and interests is crucial for new Muslims. <br /><br />Also, I watched one of your videos on youtube and it briefly discussed an 'Islamic Village' being built in Dallas. What's the status on that? Do you know what year it might be finished Insha'Allah? <br /><br />Thank your for all that you do for the Islamic community and to help us 'new Muslims' not feel so alone!NOORISHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08069695882766372474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592940650694664042.post-40974416302632027512011-02-19T09:57:33.056-06:002011-02-19T09:57:33.056-06:00Asalaamwailaykum, I reverted to Islam 1 month shy ...Asalaamwailaykum, I reverted to Islam 1 month shy of a year ago, and I can relate to everything you are saying. I love this sisterhood in Islam, and am blessed to be a part of such an active masjid here in Florida. I have more friends now than I ever did as a Christian, Alhumdulilah! I must also add that I watched your videos a lot, before reverting, as a part of my "Islamic" research....may ALlah bless and reward YOU!Sassy Simonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04952081097032822255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592940650694664042.post-69906402225791489872011-02-19T02:46:29.703-06:002011-02-19T02:46:29.703-06:00NICOLE ur blog nd everything is soo beautiful..MAA...NICOLE ur blog nd everything is soo beautiful..MAASHALLAH..keep it up sister:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592940650694664042.post-83659782274013127642011-02-18T23:27:03.498-06:002011-02-18T23:27:03.498-06:00Assalamu alaikom, So nicely put!

I lo...Wow, mashallah sis this is a beautiful story. I love the way you expressed the experience of being a convert. It has helped me to understand a little more of what they go through. I have heard this issue talked about so much especially with the opinion that new muslims receive more suppport. I do think there are more nuances to it other than just being ignored and forgotten. I think there needs to be more indepth dialogue of why this often occurs. Friendship is more then just obligation, it should be about connecting on a deeper level as you alluded to. If two people can not find that then friendships can not be strong enough to forge. It is important to have trust, respect, and mutual enjoyment of ones company to open yourself to another person on both sides. I am wondering is it that the high gets blown down because people become disappointing or is it that the high brings with it expectations and maybe entitlements that are not met which then crumbles the original good feelings? I hope that makes sense sister and I would love to know what you think :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592940650694664042.post-21237470797031891382011-02-18T08:12:27.966-06:002011-02-18T08:12:27.966-06:00As salaam alaikum Nicole, such a beautiful blog, r...As salaam alaikum Nicole, such a beautiful blog, really u answered all my questions. i am a Revert Muslim. i sent u mail about the friendship issue i was having, and here i get the answer!! :):):)thank you so much:) Inshallah, i will find my "replacemnt" friends soon :):)Thank you once again for such a wonderful blog :) Jazakallah Khayr :)Ayesha Ambreennoreply@blogger.com
