I have been researching all about Islam & I am pretty sure I agree with what has been written (rules/commandments/expections/respect.. etc) My only problem is - as much as I WANT to believe in Allah & all he/she stands for, I was brought up around atheist/non-believers.. I don't know how to change my mind set so I would be able to finally worship God/Allah, and know I am on a better path. As Muslims yourselves, what would you suggest? Thank you x

Subhanallah. This is 

Honestly, I dont really know what to suggest. I fear that my suggestion my might be the cause you turn away from Islam, for my knowledge and wisdom is so limited. I really dont want that to happen.

Maybe you can consider this: Find out more about Islam. Get to know PRACTICING Muslims. Attend talks. & get in contact with reverts (muslim converts) and ask them why they chose to embrace this religion.:)

Sorry if this doesnt help at all. We all shall pray for your well-being. 

May you find that missing piece which would make this whole picture clearer for you - so clear that you would be willing and longing to take that leap of Faith. La’allallah yaftah qalbakum. Amin.:D
