Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Yes. The closer I am to God, the closer I am to myself. And the closer I get to myself, the closer I get to God. This pattern happens in my path of self discovery.

CAN I EVER BE A MUSLIM?
I have been praying 5 times a day to allah for as long as I know and my parents always make sure I take kosher.
I try to be a good muslim with my friend who is a Jew, but I was saddened to know when I read the q'uran that allah wants me to stay away from him. Qur’an 5:51 “Believers, take not Jews and Christians for your friends.” WHY?
Last week, when I discussed this with my Imam, he told me that it is true that Jews are evil people. Then he showed me this from our famous bukhari. Bukhari [4:52:177]: Allah's Apostle said, "The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. "O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him!"
I am now very sad. I want to be a good man, but it seems allah wants me to do all these things that I cannot bring myself to do.
Dear muslim brothers/sisters. What should I do? Do you think I can ever be a true muslim because I don't do what allah teaches here?Salaam

Ex Muslim, child, calm yourself and don't hate. It's just really embarassing, for you of course -_-;
