So I recently experienced being taught about the belief in Eternal Life and the idea of the Heavenly Mother. I truly respect it and I am not trying to offend anyone.

But while listening, I became confused about some teachings, especially when I kept hearing verses about “eating the flesh and drinking the blood.” I know Catholics understand this spiritually through the Eucharist, and as a Catholic myself, I do receive the host and attend Sunday Mass.

At the same time, I’ve also been learning about Islam. I respect both religions deeply, and that is why I feel so lost right now. There are many questions in my mind.

Why are there teachings about the Father, Son, Holy Spirit, and even Heavenly Mother, while in the Qur’an it teaches that there is only one God and that Muhammad is His prophet?

I am not against Christianity, Catholicism, or Islam. I am genuinely just confused and searching for understanding. Right now I feel spiritually lost.

Assalamualaikum everyone. I was born and raised Catholic, and I believe in God. I am also familiar with other religions and I respect them.

I met a Muslim guy on a dating app. We talked for months and got along really well. But when we started talking about relationships between a Muslim and a Catholic, I began to feel unsure. As a Catholic, I don’t want to leave my faith. But because I cared about him, I started learning about Islam.

Through that, I came to know Allah and I believe in Him too. Now I feel confused. We are no longer talking and it has been months, but I am still grateful because he guided me to learn about Islam.

Now I am studying Islam on my own. I remember he once said that I might become Muslim someday, and I denied it before. But as time goes by, I keep thinking that maybe he was right.

The problem is I grew up in a religious family, and I am scared to tell them that I want to become Muslim. I am also scared of committing sins. I feel afraid of God and Allah at the same time.

I really need guidance and support. Please pray for me.
