The answer

Congratulations on the blessing of Islam. Begin the path of guidance by memorizing the Quran and studying its rulings. Do not be surprised by your family's opposition; it is a trick from Satan and a test from Allah. Be compassionate towards your mother and supplicate for her guidance. Filial piety is obligatory, but there is no obedience to a creature in disobedience to the Creator. Do not pay attention to the words of others, for your record has become pure and clean. Invite your friend to Islam; if she refuses, then part ways or marry (it is permissible for a Muslim man to marry a Christian woman). Be kind to your family with good words and gifts.
