Assalamu aleikum sister Intuition,
Shukran for your kind words sister, inshaAllah we will ALL receive the blessings of Allah, SWT.
''Everytime you take a step to become a better muslim with a sincere intention Allah makes it all so easy for us.'' Yes, I agree on this, it is exactly how it feels like. He gives us the strength to always take another step into being a better and stronger Muslim.
MashaAllah about your sisters story, I am happy for her.
You are right about friends too. All of my old friends decided to remain, so I am doing daw'ah almost every time I write to them. Some relatives left, but alhamdullillah now sister we have the whole Muslim Ummah as relatives.
Yes sister the thought of the Hellfire for not using the Hijab is also a thing to bear in mind. When we got such excellent guidance, easy to understand, why should we not obey? There may be other things that one is not yet aware of that one has to do, that is one thing, but when they appear, then it is just to listen to what Allah, SWT, says about it and follow.
And yes also to 'not start earlier'. For me that also goes for Islam itself since I came to Islam not young but much later. Alhamdullillah.
Wasalama for now, your sister
