The difference between doubting Islam and doubting the version of Islam you were taught

A lot of people think they are losing their faith.But when you actually sit with what they are questioning — it is not Allah they are doubting.It is the version of Islam they grew up with.The rigid rules. The cultural add-ons. The fearful, incomplete picture that was handed to them before they were old enough to ask questions.And nobody ever told them those two things were different.This episode is for the person who has been carrying questions in silence. Who feels guilty for doubting. Who was shamed into thinking that questioning anything about their deen means something is wrong with their faith. And who has never heard anyone say — your questions are not a sign that you are leaving Islam. They might be a sign that you are finally finding it.ShifaTalk will now be uploading on Tuesdays and Fridays In Sha Allah.Feel free to follow me on my social media :IG: @shifatalk, Youtube: @shifatalk & TikTok @shifatalk
