Rihab Alteraifi
Rihab Alteraifi ©
Rihab Alteraifi was brought up in a Muslim family but took
it for granted; she didn't feel she had to do anything more
than just be a Muslim.
Rihab felt that being a good person was more important than
practising, and because she was a good person she didn't
need to prove to Allah that she believed in him.
Over a period of time Rihab realised that something was
missing in her life.
"I searched high and low, trying various things," said
Rihab.
"I mean, I just did loads of stuff to fill up my time and
hopefully fill up that empty feeling. But it never got
filled up".
She talked to a lot of friends about it and one of her
friends, a Christian, suggested to her that it was perhaps
God that she was in search of - that is the only place she
wasn't looking. After seeking some more she decided to
practice Islam.
Since this decision, her life patterns are beginning to
change so she can make time for prayer and buy halal meat.
So how did Islam fill what was missing in Rihab's life?
