    I think this is so good for everyone to hear, the story from within and from a person that knows what it is all about. It is lifted in so many negative ways and unfortunately that is mostly what we are being fed, but seeing it from this side is not always the fact. Thank you for sharing this.

      You know fasting is great! It teaches you to be patient, to be grateful for your blessings and to better your character. And there's also an alternative for people who are sick and/or can't fast. They have to feed the hungry... Thank you for watching this video :) !

      Wa alaikoum Salam sister! Lol mon accent m'as trahis (c'est dur a perdre).
      Mais plus sérieusement, je comprends parfaitement ta situation. L'avis des autres compte toujours a nos yeux, surtout lorsqu'il s'agit de notre famille. Le conseil que je te donnerais, serais d'aller doucement et surement vers ton objectif. Commence par porter des vêtements un peu plus modestes, porte le voile ou un turban a la maison. Le plus important est d'y aller a ton rythme et de te souvenir qu'Allah connait tes intentions. Je pense aussi que tu devrai parler a ta famille. La plupart du temps elle peut se montrer bien plus compréhensive que ce que l'on s'imagine. Courage et tu peux toujours venir me parler si tu en a besoin 🥰

      Zheinab Empowers J’en ai parler un peu avec ma mère ça s’est pas très bien passé, elle pense que cette idée viens du fruit d’influence ce que je comprend je suis parti de 0 et je suis arrivé la ou j’en suis je m’habille toujours très long, je me couvre la tête avant de sortir (turban), je prie, je lis le Qu’ran etc tout ça de moi même car sa m’apporte une paix que j’ai jamais eu ailleurs et la je suis devenu une autre personne sa peut faire peur mais Allah guide et égare qui il veut. Je suis pas pressé je vais continuer a expliquer ce que je ressens au fond de moi et un jour InshaAllah elle me laissera le porter sans jugement. J’aimerai que ce soit bientôt, j’ai envie de passer le cap, mais la patience est la meilleure des solutions. Je fais en sorte de lui montrer ma dévotion envers le Créateur jusqu’à que sa vision/son opinion change. Malheureusement j’ai pas d’amies voilés ni de personnes dans ma famille ce qui est dommage, ce manque de représentation alors qu’on est des musulmans mais j’ai confiance en ma décision et même si je suis seule derrière a me soutenir c’est pas grave Dieu est a mes côtés et qu’il me facilite. Tout ira bien car quand on délaisse une chose pour Allah il nous donne toujours quelque chose de mieux. En tout cas merci beaucoup de parler de ton histoire, c’est comme une amie qui parle a travers l’écran. J’espère que tu aidera beaucoup de filles qui sont dans le même cas, en tout cas moi tu m’as beaucoup aidé💜.
