Does anyone know anyone that has converted to Islam?
Hello Assalaam Alaikum
I am a british Asian Muslim and i am currently studying a MA in social work. I am thinking about my dissertation for next year. I want to look at exploring the experiences of converts to islam, why tehy convert, difficulties faced, negative reactions maybe even experiences of harassment etc etc
I would find this fascinating to do. However I am fidning it very difficult finding people to interview or give questionnaires to.
I was wandeirng if there are any brothers or sisters who have converted to islam themselves, or knows someone that has. If so i would b very greatful if they would be willing to answer some questions for me. The data would be annonomised so there would be no way of individuals being identified.
Also I am based in the UK so if there is anyone in the Uk who wouldnt mind taking part in a telephone interview I would be really really greatful.
best wishes

u know i have seen a few white women with hijabs.. in the street i even thought bout approaching them.. but ryt now in england its kinda dodgy territory... many hijabi women have been attacked in places after the bombings in london.. :(
Islam is such a beautiful way of life. marshlah i have been blessed being born into it... but i have nothing but respect for those that have converted. shows their faith is marshlaha very strong!
although i don't know him, you could ask, and he may know other converts
