Steps how to become a good Muslim girl :
In Islam, women are advised to follow rules that at times may appear to
clash with western standards of fairness and equality. However, one will
come to notice that everything Muslim women are told to do ultimately
benefits women. If you are a Muslim female who feels that she has been
lacking in her religious duties, it is not too late to turn that around,
regardless of your age or what you have done.
1- Understand that all shall be well with Allah's will.
Allah is inclined to forgive minor sins for He is All-Understanding and
All-Forgiving. Even if you feel that you are already too deep to become
the good Muslim that you truly can be.
2- Dress modestly. This means that you have to cover
your whole body. You have to wear lose clothes. Hijab is not supposed to
be fashionable. Rather, it is a command from Allah (SWT). Avoid clothes
that are too tight. Remember that it is obligatory to cover the whole
body except the face and hands, which are highly recommended, although
some scholars held the view that it is obligatory especially in the
Hanbali school of thought. If you truly believe according to the
evidence it is obligatory, then go ahead and make an effort to cover
your face with the niqaab and your hands with gloves as no harm can come
from it. This also helps you to change your whole outlook on what is
acceptable and what is not.
3- Repent and ask Allah (swt) for forgiveness for any sins you commit.
You need to let go of past mistakes and work on improving the future.
Whatever has happened is done. It is in the past and there is nothing
you can do to change it or better it. The only thing you can do is
sincerely repent to Allah (swt) and ask Him for forgiveness and leniency
in punishment. Use those negative experiences as motivation to get
better and do good.
4- Pray five times a day. Before you get on the prayer
rug, learn what the prayer words mean to enhance your contemplation
within prayer. If you do not speak Arabic, try to find some translated
versions of the prayer words and take some time to read and understand
what the words mean. Start making prayer a normal part of your day, the
way eating is a need of ours, our spiritual food is prayers.
5- Read the Quran. Read the Quran and also try to read
the translation of the Quran and truly try to understand its meaning.
You can read the translation in English as well. Reading the Quran will
help establish a useful relationship with Allah and will also allow you
to understand how beautiful the religion is. Listening to it (you can
find videos online) also makes you feel closer to Allah.
6- Hang out with good friends. Going with the theme you
may want to make friends who share your mission of being a good Muslim.
If you are lucky enough, you might spot a Muslim girl your age. Be sure
to make friends with a Muslim girl if you find one. You can tell her how
you are trying to be a better Muslim, and she might be able to help!
Never forget that mixed gender friendships are fraught with danger and
therefore strictly forbidden in Islam outside marriage.
7- Marry a good man who will be a good model to your children.
Raising children with an evil man can traumatize them or they could
take a bad example from him. Such a bad marriage will spread evil in the
world. If you are already married with a bad person, divorce him and
fight the hypocrite in the cause of Allah (swt).
