Bismillah Al-Rehman Al-Raheem

Assalam-Alaikum Sister:

Sister, you have been given good advice.

May Allah make it easy for you.

But the truth is that the problem is not your brother's mind because the problem is with his heart. Iman (faith) or lack thereof resides in the heart. I have seen a lot of people think that because people present rational arguments against Islam, that that means the persons in those situations needs convincing from the mind. No, that is an incorrect position. While yes, the person needs to be presented rational evidence which you can peruse this thread for, what your brother needs is treatment for the heart because (believe it or not) that is the source of his main objection against Islam.

This is why you need to find a pious Muslim brother who can afford to sit down and simply discuss with your brother his objections or find bayans from this site or other sites from that have previously served as a means of jump-starting people's spiritual engines (while addressing your brother's concerns) and gently persuade your brother to at least give them a try. Sister, what must be changed is your brother's heart and articles and books may or may not open the pathway to that depending on whether the written speech is so conveyed by people who speak from wisdom and knowledge of reality or simply intellectual basis. And the latter kind of speech is not always helpful because its foundation is not completely correct.

I say this to you not only because I used to be one of the people who presumably rationally rejected the Divine but also because I cannot emphasize how much the heart weighs in on such matters.

And truly only Allah knows best.
