No more tear stains on her prayer mat

Organised by Solace UK

No revert sister should shed tears due to feeling like they're struggling alone with their difficulties. We have a duty to them beyond their shahaadah. We are here to provide them with Solace.

Story

WATCH: 5 revert sisters - Their reality - Their Voice

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO-dY3tSCEo

Solace UK is asking you to support revert sisters in difficulty this Ramadan. 

The number of women embracing Islam continues to grow at an unprecedented rate. Alhamdulillah. 

However, the reality of the difficulties they face post-shahaadah is often a far cry from the life they envisioned they would have. 

Many of these women are often forgotten once the shahaadah is uttered. They find themselves alienated by non-Muslim family, on the receiving end of abuse and rejection, facing homelessness and sudden financial difficulty and dealing with difficulties alone. 

 

For nearly 8 years, Solace UK has provided support to over 1000 revert sisters struggling with:

  • Abandonment by non-Muslim relatives upon entering Islam
  • Isolation and loneliness
  • Homelessness due to reversion
  • Emotional and physical abuse
  • Marital problems
  • Difficulties making changes such as wearing hijab, informing non-Muslim relatives of reversion
  • Doubts in faith and thoughts of leaving Islam

We have a number of services that provide our sisters with support.

The happiness and support expressed at the shahaadah has to go way beyond the shahaadah. 

Our revert sisters need our support. Support and donate to Solace UK so that the tear stains on her prayer mat are out of joy and love for her deen and not out of desperation.
