this is very true and we must also be very gentle with new Muslims

one Sheikh uses the metaphor that we mustn't be like a butcher with a cleaver hacking away at the new Muslim

if there are things that they must change in their life its important to help them change gently and focus only on the important things

otherwise we will find many of them run away to the safety of their old lives because we have made things too difficult for them

I was a little apprehensive about starting this thread because I wasn't sure how it would be taken.

I am by no means an Islamic scholar or a Sheikh.

Just a common man who loves Islam.

And want's to share it with as many people as possible.
