Ever since I was little I always asked people \"How do we know Islam is the right religion?\" and not once did anyone give me an answer. But I still grew up believing and I turned to God all the time. When I was 18 I began questioning more and now I had the internet to ask. I searched endlessly, on many different websites and nothing would help address my doubts. Now I am 20 and I have completely lost faith in Islam.

It\'s not easy. My family have no idea and my mother still tells me to pray and tells me I\'m becoming more and more \"English\" but I cannot bring myself to tell them I am no longer a Muslim. To be honest I\'m afraid of what they will say or do. They will think I\'m mentally ill and most likely do something irrational. I\'ve told a few of my closest friends, two of whom are Muslim themselves and they are understanding but they think it\'s just doubts and I have to simply get my faith back. I sometimes wish I had never had those doubts in the first place because I often feel so alone. There\'s no one to turn to where once there was God. I\'m going to attempt to read the whole of the Qur\'an in an English format because I don\'t want to be ignorant even though I have little or no confidence that it will help me.
