I'm a Muslim, married to a jewish who converted to islam. It was easier for them to accept him because they love him unconditionally... but...how could I win their hearts?

I know some were confused about the religion added to this formula. It is because they are practicing and were upset about their Son converting. Not only that... They think that because he married me he will never get out of what they call it "Phase".
I Love them, and I'm pretty open minded. I wish that one day they'll love me too.... :(

If your inlaws have accepted your husband's conversion, that is a very good sign that they are not bigotted or narrow minded. The conversion from Judaism to Islam is a huge step, especially given the politics of the day.
So it may take time for them to come to love you too. Perhaps they are afraid that you are seeking to tear him away from them, or to convert them also.
If those are not your motives then be patient, be kind and be honest. How could anyone not love somebody with those traits?

You could remind them of what the Bible/Torah says about love, kindness, charity, and forgiveness (even if you don't feel you need it, they do). But be careful how you do this,
since you are the outsider leading their lamb away (in their minds at least). And they still love their little lamb.

Well, no one can make you change what you are but all i can say is that you just need to show them how committed you are to their son and show that you'd do anything for him no matter what religion you are and hope that they can accept that.

You don't try....
You show them that you love and respect their son and for most parents that's all they want for their children.
Be polite and respect them and the rest is up to them.

I don't understand the fuzz with religion, people should like each other for who they are, not for what they believe in!
Tell them that!
