Conversion to Islam in America is motivated by a sense of identity alignment with cultural views on gender roles, moral appeal to Muslim values, and family factors. Many converts find satisfaction in the comprehensive structure of Islam, offering a sense of community and adherence to moral values.
Islam provides a structured framework appealing to those seeking order and rituals in their faith. Conversely, Christianity emphasizes a personal, transformative relationship with God over rigid structures, focusing on the revolutionary teachings of Jesus and the essence of his grace.
The limited number of American conversions to Islam, around 20,000, predominantly involving women, may indicate a reluctance among the wider population to adopt a new faith. Factors influencing conversion include family dynamics, cultural values, and a desire for moral grounding.
