oYlihan: Their believe is a bit intimidating. They told me you will go through the ultimate test when you're death. Only if you pass, you may enter heaven. I told them to describe how they think Allah represents itself to us, and they said that god is huge but if you fear or doubt it, you will instantly fail the test. Not trying to be judgemental but religion is weird stuff man.

nah, islam is pretty simple tbh.
It really boils down to this...
1. believe in only him and don't ascribe any partners to him. (human, spiritual, the devil etc.)
2. believe in the prophet mohamed and that he's the final messenger.
That's literally it, the absolute bare minimum required.
Then comes the 5 pillars stuff (belief (above), prayers, fasting, charity, pilgrimage (at least once in your life if possible i.e.- if you have the monetary means etc)
Congrats you're now a muslim lol.
Source: I took a few classes bcs I was interested when I learned a friend irl became a muslim. surprised to find that most of what you see and see being practised is just cultural hogwash.
probably the simplest "main" religion imo, makes a lotta sense imo why people convert.
Just don't understand why people decide to kill each other over it.
