JazakAllah khayran for the reminder. A few days ago, I noticed a comment to one Youtube video from someone who identified themselves as a convert to Islam along the lines in OP. And, just yesterday I watched an interview with 2 sisters who accepted Islam later in life and how, had they not had the strength to keep going, they could have left Islam not because of argumentations but because of a sudden push from everyone and a sense of burden to change everything about their lives - habits they've formed over 20-30 years - everything all of a sudden becoming 'haram'; the sisters talk about how difficult it was for them and how eventually they stopped listening to people and demanded proof that what they were doing was wrong (which could lead to arguments).

It isn't just converts but born Muslims too. We have to remember (this goes for me first, before anyone else... I'm terrible about this) that we're all at different stages of development and that we follow different schools of jurisprudence so some differences are inevitable.

I must apologize here to all Muslim brothers and sisters I may have engaged in unnecessary arguments with, jeopardizing our bonds of sisterhood and brotherhood, and jeopardizing our faith.

JazakAllah khayran brother.
