Assalamu Alleykum
Hello my dear community, I have a serious problem. I am Ismail and I converted to Islam in 2010. My little brother wants to follow my footsteps and also is ready to say the shahada. However, there is one major issue. My father is determined to go to Church every day and forces my 4 little siblings to go with him. All of my siblings love God and love to treat others with respect. They also have no trouble with reading the bible and tolerating other religions. However my little brother Dominik specifically, wants to convert to Islam and he is only 8 years old. My father pretends he tolerates other religions but he got upset at my brother when he found out Dominik was interested in Arabic.
What am I supposed to do? How can I help him. I am not even allowed to enter their apartment due to the fact I live with my grandmother. I would really love to hear some of brothers and sisters advice on how I could do my best to make sure my brother becomes a Moslem.
asalam alleykum.

Wa alaikum salam,
He is still very little, in term of guardian your dad still have more right than you, so that you can do for now, keep communicating with them including your dad, being nice and respect to them. And pray to Allah to help them t get guidance from him, so they can find the right path.
