-This is a very personal video so please be respectful in your comments.
Stories about how people converted really helped me through some of the
dark times over the years. I had to hide such a huge part of myself – I
learned in secret, prayed in secret and I wore the hijab in secret. I
lived in constant fear of someone I know seeing me and telling my
parents or my family finding the Qur’an and my other books about Islam
in my room. It was exhausting to have all that stress and hearing
converts speak about their stories made me feel less alone. Inshallah
this video can do the same for other people out there who are in need of
strength and just someone to tell them they are not alone. In addition,
I mentioned in the video how I am a beauty guru and this channel was
mainly all about beauty and makeup. I have very loving and supportive
subscribers and I owe them an explanation as to why my channel has been
re-named and why I look different. My appearance may have changed but I
am still Sam!! Only now my appearance on outside reflects my true self
on the inside!!! I don’t have to hide anymore!!!
My biggest
advice to other converts/reverts out there who might be in a similar
situation that I was in is to surround yourselves with people who truly
care about you and support you. I was immensely blessed to have Tanzim
and his family, Nouran, the Hammadeh Family and all my other friends to
support me during such a stressful and challenging time in my life. I
don’t know how I can ever repay these wonderful people back but I do
know that I have the rest of my life to try and repay them for the
unconditional love and support they blessed me with. Thank you
PLEASE

me on my facebook and my other social media links!!! All of them are

youtubers like @fashionwithfaith through social media and it truly
helped me and I am forever grateful for them. I am 100% willing to help
as many of you that need someone to talk to because I know it’s easy to
feel alone during times like this!
