reverts definitely need a support group of reverts, upright born muslims and reliable connected contemporary ulama - males or female scholars (ulama who are born, raised and educated in the same country as the revert AND who are experienced with outreach work). UK wise vast overwhelming majority of masjids are extremely ill equipped to handle the needs of reverts despite this being a huge requirement for them given there actually in a non-muslim country. Reverts have a huge need/yearning to being felt that they 'belong' to a muslim community and are 'part' of it.

p.s Yes Deo masjids (which form the majority in UK) dont look after reverts needs but then again nor do Barelwi mostly. Salafi's are the only ones who do. Actually there are no Deo orgs (maybe also no Barelwi) i know of in the western world that solely do dawah towards non-muslim or cater for their needs.
