salam alaikum, All praise be to Allah.
I have recently posted my conversion story, give it a read if you haven’t yet.
So last night 2 brothers from the mosque turned at my door n my elder brother whose house im living at opened the door and he got shocked as he saw two brothers with beard and shaved moustache are at door and asking for me.
My brother told them off and reacted every disgracefully n emotionally.
Not forget to mention my mother already knew I’m sunni a while back as she had seen me praying folded hands and not makin sajda on thurba. She didnt care much as she knew I wasn’t practicing before n now that I do she didn’t wanted to object, tho she did say not to bring shame to the family which is understandable as how conservative and narrow minded my community is.
So when last night my brother told mum about brothers from masjid were here askin for me, she said I already knew of all these haha.
And I tried a lot to talk to my brother, man to man and tell him everything, he just didn’t wanted to talk so I left him alone.
I don’t know what’s next, but what ever is goin to happen next I’m ready to embrace it with full heart and rely on Allah. he alone is the sustainer and protector of all things.
Make dua everything goes well and Allah give hidaya to my family and if things go wrong for me n get kicked out, may Allah make it easy for me.

PS, I’m just keeping it here so if any brother is in same shoes as me don’t feel alone and allah help and guide us all.
Wasalam.

I guranttee that when you start discussing with your brother and father, they will undoubtedly throw the guilt card at you and say "why dont you love the Ahlul Bayt!? why are you betraying them? why do you hate them?". There is another sister on this forum who is about to leave Shiaism and i made a post on this issue. The jist of the argument is, the people narrating content form the Ahlul Bayt in shia books are a bunch of liars and extremely weak narrators. I will copy paste what i wrote, but if you get the time, do read the entire thread and the links i shared (http://forum.twelvershia.net/ex-shias/possible-ex-shia-in-the-making/)

The best article to read is this (https://youpuncturedtheark.wordpress.com/2011/03/02/part1the-nature-of-relationship-between-ahlebaytra-and-sahabara/) and all the Part in the links. Each part deals with a separate Sahabi and has AUTHENTIC hadith from the Ahlul Bayt where the praised sahaba like there is no tomorrow. Other than that, i wish you all the best. I will remember you in my duas. Ask Allah for help and make it easier for you inshaAllah!

--------
Also sister, i find that in the heat of Sunni-Shia discussions, sometimes we loose sight of the most important thing there is, which is AUTHENTICATING sources. The common Shia slogan against Ahlus Sunnah that you hear is that "we shias follow Ahlul Bayt, and you dont, therefore you are evil".

(1) Firstly, this is a fallacy called the fallacy of false dichotomy. There is nothing in the Quran or the Sunnah that says that you shoud ONLY take knowledege from Ahlul Bayt. We have narrations from Ahlul Bayt and also from other sahabas as well(by that i mean AUTHENTIC narration, not made up nonsense). There is an EXCELLENT article on on this topic (https://youpuncturedtheark.wordpress.com/2011/04/27/narrations-from-ahl-albayt-present-in-books-the-main-books-of-ahlesunnah/) which i highly recommend you read. The author did an analysis on the number of narration from Ahlul Bayt(provided they are athentic) in Sunni books, and the results are quite interesting. Some snippets from the article are quoted below

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"
Muhammad Al baqir(ra)

Narration of Imam Muhammad Abi Jafar Al-Baqir (ra), according to the AhleSunnah a reliable greats scholar of the Salaf from Ahl Al bait, accrding to the Imamites, the “5th infallible” Imam.

There are 240 narrations in the kuttub-tis’a (nine major books of the sunnah)

To make it clearer let us compare his narrations to those of Abu Bakr Al Siddiq(ra):

Al-Baqirs narrations in Sahih of Muslim = 19
Abu Bakrs narrations in Sahih of Muslim = 9

Al-Baqirs narrations in Sunan of Al-Nisai = 56
Abu Bakrs narrations in Sunan of Al-Nisai = 22

Al-Baqirs narrations in Sunan of Abi Dawud = 7
Abu Bakrs narrations in Sunan of Abi Dawud = 11

Al-Baqirs narrations in Sunan of Al-Tirmidhi = 23
Abu Bakrs narrations inSunan of Al-Tirmidhi = 22

Al-Baqirs narrations in Sunan of Ibni Majah = 24
Abu Bakrs narrations in Sunan of Ibni Majah = 16

To make it even clearer let us tell you the number of ALL the narrations by Abu Bakr in the SIX (kutub sitta) books of Ahadith with those of Al Baqir:
Al-Baqir = 229
Abu Bakr = 210

Who narrated greater number of narrations from Hassan(ra) and Hussain(ra)?

Narrations from Hassan(ra) and Hussain(ra) in shia book:

Narration from Al Hussein (ra) in Al-Kafi: There is exactly ONE narration by Al Hussein and one By Al Hassan

Narrations from Hassan(ra) and Hussain(ra) in Sunni books:

Narration from Al Hussein (ra) in the Sahihayn: There are four narrations from Al Hussein in the Sahihayn. And it is not just random story, rather Hussein narrates from ALI (no. 1127 in the book of the five wajibat, no.3091), same in Sahih Muslim. (Remember there is ONE narration of Al Hussein in AL Kafi)
"

"
Who narrated greater number of narrations from Fatima(ra)?

Narrations from Fatima(ra) in shia book:

Narrations of Fatimah Bint Muhammad(ra): In Al-Kafi there are, or shall we say there IS exactly ZERO (0) narration in Al-Kafi! Keep in mind: Al Kafi contains more narration than Al Bukhari and Muslim altogether it has NINE volumes, yet there is not one narration in the shia book.

Narrations from Fatima(ra) in Sunni books:

Narrations of Fatimah Bint Muhammad(ra) in the sahihayn: In Sahih Al-Bukhari, there is one narration(No. 4462) from Fatimah (ra).
"

"
Who narrated greater number of narrations from Ali(ra)?

Narrations from Ali(ra) in shia book:

The narrations of the commander of the faithful, Ali Ibn Abi Talib (ra) in Al kafi: In Al-Kafi (as we said it contains more narrations than Bukhari and Muslim altogether), there are 66 narration from Ali only! (and since according to some shias 2/3 of Kafi is weak so Allah knows how many among the 66 are true!)

Narrations from Ali(ra) in authentic books of Ahlesunnah:

The narrations of the commander of the faithful, Ali Ibn Abi Talib (ra) in the two Sahihs: Ali Ibn Abi Talib narrated (more than Abu Bakr and Othman altogether, though Omar might have one narration more) 98 narrations, including repetitions, without repetitions 34. So basically he narrated 72 narrations (Fiqh etc.) in the two most authentic books of AhleSunnah (remember he narrated in the shia book Alkafi which contains more narrations than bukhari and muslim altogether only 66 narrations!). He narrated more than Abu Bakr(ra) AND Othman(ra) in the two sahihs.

Note: 8 Books of Ahl Al-Sunnah[bukhari, sahih muslim, sunan al tirmidhi, sunan al nasaai, sunan Abi dawood, ibn maajah, musnad ahmad and musnad al daarimi] have 1583 narrations narrated by ALI IBN ABI TALIB (ra). After all of that, who dares to claim that the Ahl Al-Sunnah are “followers of Bani Umayyah”? Did the Umavid Caliphs felt asleep and didn’t recognize over 1500 narrations narrated by the one they hated so much?.

(2) Secondly, even if i were to give it to you that we should take knowledege ONLY from Ahlul Bayt, the next question that logically follows is, who are the people narrating content from the Ahlul Bayt in shia books? are they reliable trust worthy narrators? the answer is a RESOUNDING NO. The Quran clearly says 49:6 (Yusuf Ali) "O ye who believe! If a wicked person comes to you with any news, ascertain the truth, lest ye harm people unwittingly, and afterwards become full of repentance for what ye have done.". This is the biggest blunder that shias have fallen into. They have taken information from totally unreliable people who attributed absolute lies and garbage to the Ahlul Bayt and RASIED them above their station. This is EXACTLY what happened with the christians. The christians took knowledge from unknown idiots like the liar Pual, and the 4 gospel writers and they turned Jesus(pbuh) from a prophet to God himself. What is the proof? The sunni defense have written two EXCELLENT articles on this topic (http://www.twelvershia.net/2019/03/24/liars-weak-transmitters-endorsed-by-the-shia/ | http://www.twelvershia.net/2019/01/20/10-reasons-why-you-should-not-trust-shia-hadith-sources/). Do read them if you get the time, but the jist of the article can be summarized as  follows. There are a number of people who narrate content in both shia books and sunni books. You could call them common links. What is REALLY INTERESTING is that when sunni muhadithun talk about them, they say that these people are liars and weak transmitters, yet Shia muhadithun, say that these people are reliable. Obvi they cant both be right, there is a huge problem here. Below is the list of these people, and what muhadithun from each school say about each person.

I copied several papers from it, but it then became apparent to me, so I returned the book to him. I then tore what I had copied from it. Near the end of his life, Al-‘Abbas claimed to have heard hadith from the qadhi, Abu ‘Abdillah Al-Mahamili. He went to the disapproved reports Ibn ‘Uqdah had transmitted in the fada’il, and he then ascribed them to Al-Mahamili and transmitted them from him.”

As you can see, there is a HUGE discrepency of the reliability of these narrators. So the next time your family gives you crap about following Ahlul Bayt, ask them, are the narrators in our books even reliable people?! which leads me to my third and final point

(3) The Ahlul Bayt in Sunni books have preached THE TOTAL OPPOSITE of what the Ahlul Bayt preach in shia books. For example we have an authentic hadith from Hasan(RA) that Ghadir Khum was NOT an appointment by the prophet(pbuh) of Ali to be caliph. We also have authentic hadith from the Ahlul Bayt where they say not to build buildings over graves, and to level them even, but shias do the opposite. We have authentic hadith from ALI HIMSELF, where he praised tarawih prayer, but shias say tarawih is evil, also we dont have anything from the Ahlul Bayt in Sunni books where they preached imamah, or that they are divine and masum, or that they are higher than prophets, and the list goes on and on. the point being, the Ahlul Bayt in Sunni books is POLES APART from the Ahlul Bayt in shia books. So the question is, WHOSE NARRATORS are more reliable? As the Quran clearly says, VERIFY INFORMATION BEFORE YOU BELIEVE IT, b/c this is exactly what the Christians failed to do and ended up believing Jesus(pbuh) to be a God. And when you dont verify information, you end up believing in crap like in the video below, without even asking the question, did the Ahlul bayt even PREACH this nonsense to begin with?

How old are you?

You should make some back up plans for if you do end up getting kicked out of your house. You say you know some sunni bros in real life, ask them if they can help you out in this regard. You know just a temporary stay somewhere until you get everything sorted. You may need time to find work etc

May Allah make things easy for you.

I feel like past 2 days he’s visiting parents of my Shia friends, probably telling them to not let them hang out with me. Lol

Walaikum Salam,

Brother, I would just advise you to be patient and respectful to your family and brother even if they are bad to you.

Maybe also tell the brothers from the Masjid not to come to the house since it is your brother's house and he doesn't like them  showing up at the door.

May Allah make it easy for you.

Wonder if he's okay. Been a while since he posted. May Allah keep him safe.

It happens on both sides. One thing I like about the West is the freedom to have your own views.
