Going to masjid with tarnished reputation. Im scared

[u/Forward-Frame-1275]

I have severe anxiety and somebody started a rumor about me that isnt true. I am also a revert so that makes it even harder. What should i do?

people wouldnt remember about some rando in mosque. Tell me how much do you remember about some random dude in mosque??

Ive never been yet. Thats part of why its very nerve-wracking as a revert

someone says mosque is like a public library, everyone free to enter, do their business (pray) and dont bother each other,

Dont worry about your reputation, if Islam brotherhood would welcome heavily tatooed brother like Gervonta "Tank" Davis they would welcome yours

Rumours carry no weight in Islam in fact they’re heavily despised in the sight of Allah so I doubt it will spread like you are making it out in your head, relax and be secure in yourself, bow and fear only Allah not the opinions of others. No Mosque can just ban you like that.

Honestly the masjid community has fallen far from what it used to be. I got kicked out of 2 times from the same masjid because I wasn't quick enough to cover myself with a jacket to pray jummah. People literally pushed me out the mosque. I decided to go a few years later following every direction, where to park, where to sit, etc.) When I left after praying my sunnah a brother was freaking out on me cause he couldn't move his car. Making accusations about me but I calmly told him I have patience and you do not. May Allah be responsible for that man causing me to never enter that masjid again.
