While she&#8217;s grateful for all the support, it was overwhelming to her to say the least.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I\u2019m truly grateful for the outpouring of love and support as I start this new path in life &#8230; I actually get overwhelmed easily by attention and makes me uneasy,&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B7S6LSYgDcM\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link<\/p>\n<p>She then pointed out something she mentioned in her first announcement. She was a Muslim at heart even before her announcement.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;As I mentioned before- I already technically considered myself \u201cMuslim\u201d, having the faith and connection to God and creation I did on my life\u2019s journey.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Muslim convert then answered some &#8216;common questions&#8217; about choices following her spiritual journey. Rosie Gabrielle is not concerned with insubstantial things like changing her name or picking a sect.\u00a0She&#8217;s pure Mulsim through and through.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Will I change my name? No ?<br \/>\nDoes my family accept my path? Yes<br \/>\nWill I choose a Sect? No<br \/>\nWill I marry you? NO !!! ???\u200d\u2640\ufe0f<br \/>\nWill I do Hajj\/Umrah ?

It seems some people even accused her of doing this to increase her following.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;My public announcement was not something to gain attention from or build my following &#8230; I also received a bit of backlash (to be expected) Mostly driven by fear, ignorance, and lack of tolerance, I was scorned with indignant preachings.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Rosie explained that hatred stems from fear, but she will not let that fear stop her and will be an example of an inclusive and progressive Islam.
