Hello everyone,
i am a Muslim and follow the School of Ahlulbayt (so basically im Shia Believer not Shiite!)
My situation is that i dont know any other Muslims with parallel beliefs as me due to our belief system being a minority in Islam.
In my secondary school multiple people held grudges against me to my beliefs to the extent of trying to use physical violence, this is given that we would have been friends for years and when they find out they turn on me immediately.
The underlying reasons to this im not sure AND THERE ARE MANY 'Sunni' who have no problem and respect my belief but a large proportion dont.
So im heading of to University and for a Muslim its a test of will to stick through while doing nothing religiously unacceptable, but this just makes it more difficult.
My question is that is there anyone else here in my situation?
Should i still try join a Islamic Society regardless of the risk of what happened in my secondary school recurring?
I appreciate any advice i can get as this situation has kept me lonely for a while and has prevented me from being relaxed this summer. Please do not tell me i believe wrong as ive spent many days into researching Islam and this is the route i chose, i dont want to open a debate thread.
Thanks in advance to all who can help.
