As someone who was indoctrinated into islam as a child, I cannot recommend. 0/10 stars. Or any of the abrahamic religions imo. Way too dogmatic and patriarchal. While the culture and ritual is interesting from an anthropological point of view, you'd likely have a better time hanging out with people you care about, instead of prostrating yourself to a god who thinks anyone with a uterus is subhuman.
Yeah, I can see how that could affect your point of view. While I was never really raised around religion in a strict way, I do believe that religion can be life-changing for some people and give them purpose (not to say that you can't have a life purpose/morals without religion, you absolutely can).
