Hello. I am married to a muslim man and we have two kids we are raising togehter. We just recently found out that his parents and his family have deceptively trying to have me convert to Islam which I found very snake like. I started looking into Islam and I just find many things confusing, or atleast to me hypocritical. I don't have any issues with the idea that there is one god, that prophet mohammad wrote the Quran etc. What I don't get is how other than those sentiments all Muslims seem to have there own ideas of what they should and should not regardless of what the Quran says, so how can they be Muslims. And also there are definitely things stated in Islam that can not make sense in todays day and age. My last issue and this is the biggest one, whenever I question Islam I get attacked, point blank period. I ask a question, I get a response and then if I give a follow up question the person can't answer I get told either the person doesn't really know the answer or that I am out of line for asking. Why? For a religion that states its so perfect that everything is laid out for you, how can so few muslims no anything about there religion except for what they've been told by there parents. I'll wait until this post gets approved before I start asking any of my questions. It will be a shame if even here on an "islam" forum that someoen who asks questions gets shut down just because the question is threatening a muslims beliefs.

Hello Mochacian,

Welcome to Islamicity.

Many people come here to ask questions about Islam. Some topics get heated in arguments, others dont ... it does not depend only on the muslims how a thread develops, rather on both parties.
I hope you will be able to develop good relationships and constructive dialogues.

Have you spoken to any scholars about these questions, or just family and friends and your husband?

Since you are doing the service for them by raising the kids you can just leave him with the kids, let his family do your job. You know the whole thing in life is about do's and don'ts. Let them know that you are not soft pie that depend on their existence. Or alternatively you just a way with the kids and tell him to shut them up or separation. It's all about do's and don'ts that count, nothing else.

Have fun.

it is very general that whenever someone is new to something, that is looking hard and weired. But over here, i am assuring you that, once you intend to convert, God will make each and every thing easy for you inshAllah,,,,

in the history we can see a lot of converted Muslims stories...
