I am a new muslim, and as you know that Muslims are strictly forbidden to eat pork! Everything that my mom makes are containing pork...which really offends me cuz she doesn't understand me! she thinks I will eat it since there is nothing else to eat...I'm really upset because our culture foods mostly contain pork in it, so I had to let go of my favorite foods for my religion...but It upsets me because my mom doesn't make something that I can eat, so I just don't eat anymore.sometimes I eat but I eat the same type of foods.. can anyone help me please? I'm getting tired of eating the same thing...
btw yesterday I was so hungry that my family brought pizza home and I was so hungry that I didnt realize that I was eating pork.. is peperoni made out of pork??? how can I ask (SWT)Allah for forgiveness for that?
I don't want to commit a big sin but it's so tempting..any help??
the thing is my family is so used to eating pork and they really like eating pork ???? which makes me angry because I've told her that why does she have to eat pork and they even made fun of me because I don't eat pork and that I am muslim
well I can't buy my own food ( "they're saving money" :P) I am really offended and If I buy my food my sisters end up eating them!!!
I am 16 I turned muslim 2 months ago...since then I havent eaten pork except yesterday accidentally
 
That sounds pretty mean =/

See if you can make some stuff yourself...maybe learn some simple recipes from your friends or online. Find some other seafood or vegetarian stuffs, maybe some microwaveable dinners or easy to make stuff from supermarkets.
 
Eat the same dishes, just ask her to subsitute some of the dishes with other meats, i keep kosher (basically the same, no pork either) and I know from experience that vegitarian bacon is really good! Fresh ground turkey is delicious, tastes better, and is more slimming than pork too!
