How can I convert to Islam?
I am a Christian by birth and 23 years old girl. I had a wish to acquiring knowledge about religion. I learned about Buddhist and Islam as my University subject was Religion History. Among these religion Islam is the best. The line oh holy Qur'an touch my heart. In one speech, I've fallen in love with Islam.
Now I want to be a complete Muslim. But how can I convert myself? How will my family take it? How can I manage my society?

Islam is the best religion. In Bible there's a line of latest prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam. That proves the dignity of Islam.
Quran is the message of Allah (Great God) not created by any human. Every doctor and Scientist recherche the holy Quran. Quran is the center of all hidden knowledge of the world. It's every line is heart touching.
Many christian and other religious people thinks that Islam teach terrorism. But truly there's not a single line of terrorism in Islam. Islam is a religion of Peach.
Don't dot wast time. Just say Kalima "La ilaha Illallahu Muhammadur Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihe Wasallam)".
Don't need to inform your family and society until you will self dependent.
And make a Muslim Company who will support you and will marry you.
Thanks

You mean you were raised a Christian. A newborn infant is incapable of adhering to a religion.
What makes you think Islam is the best? Shouldn't "veracity of claims" be the foremost question when evaluating a religion? Emotion inspiring prose or poetry doesn't mean it's true.
TBH, I'd think that if you knew enough to declare Islam the best, that you'd already be familiar with what conversion would require.
For the more serious questions, we don't know how your family will take it, as we don't know your family. All kinds of people react in all kinds of ways. Your safety should be your first priority.

So you studied Islam as a University subject yet, you don't know

That's like studying French at University and not knowing, how
to get to France.

Hey welcome to islam!
# # Check this;
she converted to islam as well --->>> https://ca.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20...
To become a muslim, you just have to say the shahadah(declaration of faith) sincerely with belief..
Say - Ash-hadu an Laa ilaaha illAllaah wa ash-hadu anna Muhammadur-Rasoolullaah
((meaning - I testify that there is nothing worthy of worship except Allaah( One God) and Muhammad is His Messenger.))
And you'll be a muslim ! :D
So, basically... you can be a muslim right now by yourself..
you can say your shahadah in front of other muslims in the mosque again, that will help you get to know more muslims in the society and they should be glad to help with anything you need.. it always help when you get some support and motivation..
If your family/friends are very much against islam and you're afraid then keep it hidden for a little while slip in some conversations about religion and islam and make islam look good enough for them to be opening up to islam and then it's safer to say it to them..
Listen to stories of the people who converted to islam, they are sharing their personal stories.. you can also show these to your family/friends how/why so many people are converting to islam

Peace upon with you sister. Easy way is just go to the mosque and find Imam, they will teach you everything. After that be brave and never look back again. You must learn the basic of being a Muslim. Don't worry, take your time and hope you will find the peaceful in your everyday life. :)

I just wanted to congratulate you sister :) Alhamdu lillah
I don't recommend you to come here to take an advise. Most of them are haters unfortunately.
But to enter Islam sister you just say Shahadah as our brothers stated above.
I also would strongly recommend you to have Muslim sisters who would encourage you and support you

Sister don't mind these Islam haters they don't know any thing about Islam and yet they think they know about Islam more than Islamic scholars. There hate will never end and they will never stop lying about Islam they are puppets of satan.
It is good to hear that Allah (s.w.t) has shown you the right path. For converting into Islam you should meet Islamic scholar. He will help you learn about Islam and Quran our Holy book. You have to say shada for entering in Islam.
“ASH-HADU ANLA ELAHA ILLA-ALLAH WA ASH-HADU ANNA MOHAMMADAN RASUL-ALLAH”.
The English translation is:
“I bear witness that there is no deity (none truly to be worshipped) but, Allah, and I bear witness that Mohammad is the messenger of Allah.”
May Allah help you and make things easy for you

You are not a Christian by birth, you are a Christian by early indoctrination.
Also, no religion is good. To join a religion is to share its belief system, and unless you are sick in the head, you don't believe things just because they seem desirable to you (which is exactly the only reason anyone would believe in one).

***I am a Christian by birth***
So you are not a Christian. No one is born a Christian as it is impossible for an infant to follow Jesus as his/her personal Lord and savior.
***The line oh holy Qur'an touch my heart.***
Allah never had any of His 25 prophets compile a Quran in over 2000 years. So the Quran you read was not holy. It was put together by non-prophets who thought they could complete in 25 years what Allah didn't in 2000. The Abu made writing it the norm. Then, Uthman (non-prophet) realized Abu's (non-prophet) mistake and burned everything he did and made Hafsa's copy the copy that all other Qurans must conform.
So today, we don't have anything from any of the prophets but we have millions of artifacts and documents of when Muslims worshiped pagan gods. We have Hafsa's copy which was put together by a non-prophet and the Quran translated in over 100 languages, all which would be burned by Uthman if he were alive today.
***Now I want to be a complete Muslim.***
Get yourself circumcised and remember that the caste system specifically says that Muslim men are at the top and you are a slave at his service. You must accept the reality of men dominating women. However, you are a notch above infidels...which you call your family.
Once you realize that "a woman does not have the right to leave her home without her husband’s permission, even to attend her father’s funeral" if you are going to survive in this culture, you need to be sold. As your family are infidels, you may want to have the state find you a husband and allow them to sell you to your husband.
It is his choice how many wives, temporary wives, and sex slaves he has...so don't expect more than your contract says in return for your complete submission to him in every way.
Once you have done this, you are ready to become a Muslim as you don't want to join and discover like the girls from Australia, that you can't leave once you joined.

All religions are BS. Find your own way without having to rely on ancient superstitions to tell you how to live.
