Proud to be a Muslim and a Pakistani
Random Thoughts: In the words of Iqbal:

Yeh shahaadat gahe ulfat mein qadam rakhna hay
Loag samajhte hain asan hay Musalman hona

Trying to convert myself from a Muslim to a Mo`min

Originally, all the Sahaba (R) had accepted Islam with due thought and understanding and therefore, they were among the category of true Quranic mo’mins. However, many tribes accepted Islam en masse (110:2) when Islam had become well-established as a system with rule of law in society. The Quran refers to these people as follows:

"These bedouins say that they are mo’mins. O Prophet! Tell them that you do not have Iman. You have only accepted to surrender (to Islam). Iman has not yet entered your hearts." (49:14)

Alas, the majority of us Muslims are Muslims by default since born in a family having Muslim names. We need to learn and practice Islam to get ALLAH`s blessings here and Hereafter.
