There are few Muslims there. I used to be a Christian until a friend introduced me to Islamic books. Those books were fascinating to me&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And of course, the most interesting of these books was the most important: &#8220;I had not yet become a Muslim when I studied the Qur&#8217;an. The feeling it gave me indicated that this book is not earthly, but heavenly. I learned the Quran first in English and then in Arabic. Then I studied the life of Hazrat Rasool. I got to know Islam step by step.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is my state, the state of certainty. I believe with all my heart that if there is a guiding light in the world, it is Islam.<\/p>\n<p>When we ask her about her problems in Australia, she is very affected. Perhaps limiting the relationship with his former family and close friends &#8211; after becoming Muslim &#8211; is his most difficult problem.<\/p>\n<p>Zainab says: &#8220;This is Jihad itself. People there are often shocked by the way I dress. Many mocks and reject me. The number of Muslims in our region is very small and this makes my situation very difficult. Media doesn&#8217;t fit my ritual, so I pretty much eliminated it from the house. I also cut ties with those former friends with whom it was not possible to continue the relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor adds with a mixed tone of &#8220;pride&#8221; and &#8220;pain&#8221;: &#8220;I was the first veiled woman in my area.&#8221; I&#8217;m strange to them and they make fun of me instead of getting to know me! But in all these hardships, I have a joy that they don&#8217;t have, and that is &#8220;Islam&#8221; and &#8220;Qur&#8217;an&#8221;. I am in contact with those who are deprived of it; I have &#8220;God&#8221; and &#8220;Ahl al-Bayt&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>This Australian Muslim lady also talks about the shortcomings: &#8220;There are few Islamic opportunities in my place of residence. There are very few books about Islam there. Life is hard for me there. However, I travel a long distance to send my children to a very small Islamic educational center because I am a mother.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Zainab Taylor, who has been invited to Iran as a Shiite thinker to participate in the Fatimah-ology Congress, despite all these sufferings, ends the conversation with these hopeful words: &#8220;With all the qualities I said, I am happy and blessed; Because we live together with my husband and children in the boundless sea of Islam.<\/p>\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-6999\" data-postid=\"6999\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-6999 themify_builder\">\n\n    <\/div>\n<!-- \/themify_builder_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; At the very beginning of his arrival in Iran, you can find his maternal love; With a small child in her arms, and a calm and loving face&#8230; as she mentions her children many times in our conversation, she loves them and is equally worried&#8230; she came from a faraway region. across the oceans&#8230; [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[34,29,79,33,101],"class_list":["post-6999","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-magazine","tag-converted-to-shia","tag-islam","tag-reborns","tag-shia","tag-zainab-taylor","has-post-title","no-post-date","has-post-category","has-post-tag","has-post-comment","has-post-author",""],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6999","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6999"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6999\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8094,"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6999\/revisions\/8094"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6999"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/al-mostabserin.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
