Bismillah
As salam alaikum, Okhti.
It just breaks my heart that my brothers and sisters sometimes feel the need to leave their homeland that is supposed to be muslim in order to better practice their religion. One brother told me that it is easier for him to practice here than there. It hurts to see what greed and selfishness have done to us. We sell our deen and souls for nibbles of the dunya. I am reminded of the fact that we will give all the world in order to be allowed to go back and offer two rakats of prayer.
May Allah strengthen your resolve my sister. May you serve as a beautiful beacon of Islam. Jazaki Allah Khair for your struggle.
By the way, have you heard of Shaykh Hazim?
As salam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu
