Becoming a Radical Feminist Led Me To Islam | Odett Castroli Revert Story
Description
In this Muslim revert story, a Mexican architect shares how going from radical feminist, witch, and rock band singer to wearing hijab full-time and giving da'wah online all happened in the span of a single week.Before she reverted to Islam she had rejected Christianity at 11 years old, turned to witchcraft during a mental health crisis, and was deeply resistant to even picking up the Quran, convinced that Islam oppressed women.After finally reading the Quran out of curiosity, she spent a week waking up at 4am, reading and researching, until everything clicked and she took her shahada, walked straight into a hijab store, and never looked back.I hope you enjoy this Muslim revert story.-Subscribe to the Revert Of The Week Newsletter: https://canyon-mimbs.kit.com/revert-0:00:00 - Intro0:04:10 - Growing Up Catholic in Mexico and Rejecting Christianity at Age 110:08:20 - Moving to Canada Alone and Turning to Witchcraft During a Dark Season0:12:30 - Meeting Her First Muslim and Seeing Someone Pray for the First Time0:16:40 - Reading the Quran for One Week Straight and Becoming Convinced of Islam0:20:50 - Taking Shahada, Wearing Hijab, and Marrying Her Tunisian Husband0:25:00 - Family Reactions0:29:10 - Giving Up Makeup, Nail Polish, and Navigating Hijab in a Male-Dominated Workplace0:33:20 - The Most Valuable Lesson Since Taking Shahada0:37:30 - Why Hijab Is Freedom, Not Oppression0:41:40 - What Islam Actually Gives Women vs. What Society Tells Women They Need0:45:50 - The Biggest Issue Facing the Ummah0:50:00 - The Wisdom Behind Every Command in Islam0:54:09 - Final Message to the World-Clips Channel: / @canyonmimbsshowclips Odett: / odettcastroi Canyon: / canyonmimbs Contact Us: canyon@canyonmimbs.com#Revert #RevertStory #Muslim
