Today and yesterday I spent with my cousin from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
I really really enjoyed it!
It was the first time I spent with another Muslim since I reverted in April.
We had never spoken so much since I was born. She is my 2nd cousin and my mother and her were close.
She reverted to Islam 30 years ago and married a man from Saudi Arabia. She has lived there every since.
We are t he only 2 Muslims in my entire HUGE family and she has been the only one for a very long time (decades) so we have a very special bond.
Can't wait for her to come back next year and Insha Allah (God willing) I can visit her one day in Saudi Arabia.
