A couple of months ago I converted to Islam, but since then I have gone through some trouble with my new faith. Although I still have faith, I find that some times it contradicts with my own Western culture and values.
Things like women's rights, capital punishments for apostates, and other parts of Shariah law go against my beliefs in freedom of religion and expression.
I'm still learning, so if any one could explain these points to me better, I'll be very grateful.
Congratulations that you have been blessed with finding Islam...
If Islam does not contradict the the Non-Islamic Culture, then in that case Islam must be wrong.
When we live under a culture, we become familiar with it...Sometimes we confuse familiarity with being right...
Scholars spend long time to learn Islam...
You will need to study the areas of contradictions, and study them deeply...
You will surly find that Islam brings all the answers.
