As a previous Christian, I still have some friends that I sometimes bump into whenever I'm out on the streets. And when we do, we chat and talk about anything under the sun. But most of the times, it leads on asking me how I feel about my new religion.

Inaturally get ecstatic about it, because I see it as a chance to spread the good things about Islam.



But yesterday, I saw an old friend, and as always, she couldn't help but ask me if I'm not scared of joining Islam.



I immediately answered a big NO, and asked her why? She then told me about another friend that is now living in scare, because of what is called "Apostasy" in Islam.

I told her apostasy is something you should be scared of if you’re unsure about your loyalty and confidence in your religion. I know she wasn’t that convinced from my answer because she doesn’t have any idea about the truthfulness and credibility of Islam.

So I went to several websites, looking for more convincing explanations, but I wasn't lucky to find something that is stronger enough to use in defense when I get into the same situation again.

I was thinking it would be nice if I get something that will come directly from a knowledgeable fellow Muslim.

So if someone has more to say about this, please share it, because I’ll be more than happy to hear them.
