The best saying I heard from a revert

[Dan]

Bismillah

As salam alaikum

Br. Suhaib Webb said something similar at the convention in Chicago. I will paraphrase since I do not have exact quotes:

Some people who convert to Islam think that the conversion is winning the battle. Conversion is actually the first step in a lifelong battle in the Name of Allah. It is the beginning of the journey, not the end.

Before Islam, I felt like I had too many responcibilities and could not handle it. After converting, I look and see that I have even more responcibilities than before but now I have Allah Most Merciful Guiding me and Protecting me.

As salam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu
