That's kind of frightening, I am from his state of Texas. He does not speak for us all, I can guarantee you he doesn't speak for me.

Salaam, no in no way did you offend me, it's actually REALLY difficult to offend me. I tend to have a dry sense of humour that can come off wrong, if I upset you, you have my most heart felt apology.

Thank you, I didn't see any other posts about this. And that's why you're a mod and I'm not :)

I corrected someone about Islam I was talking with a friend and the topic of religion came up; she just wondered out loud why our belief is called "muhammadism" I politely pointed out it wasn't. That was an incorrect term that was used. We do not worship Muhammad, (SWT), we worship only...

This boy last year fed a live rabbit to an alligator at a zoo, he was charged with animal cruelity. And his latest foray into the legal system was yanking off a woman's Hijab in Wales. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/6970761.stm I'm not sure if he needs someone to reach out to him or...

Salaam to all. Thanks for the words of encouragement. It helped A LOT to know I'm not the only one that kind of feels like an island in the middle of the ocean. I do come here for encouragement. I didn't know that Michigan had such a huge populous of Muslim there. Hmm it's worth a...

Hello everyone. I am still here, still working though the world of what it means to be Muslim. I live in central Texas, not exactly a huge population of Muslims. Does anyone else feel kind of separated from our brother and sisters? Thanks so much in advance. Please excuse the double post...

I watched it. I am no scholar, but I do think it's an important work, I do give them credit that they never showed the likeness of the Prophet Muhammad, (Peace be upon him).

Blueglazer, Thank you for those links, they didn't dissuade me, in fact they just confirmed everything I've already believed. I admit I had some trepidation before I clicked on those, but when I did I, Allāhu Akbar, I felt my heart leap with confirmation. I'm going to take some time to...

Thanks I'm just wishing I could begin now and have someone here to share it with me, well waiting is :) Thank you so much my future brothers and sister Salaam, Matthew

I have realized it's time. I need to make Shahadah, I only wish the Masjid was open right now. I won't have any time tomorrow or Allah SWT, give me strength, Friday. So tomorrow I'm going to call the Masjid tomorrow and see if I can speak to someone in Monday. Wish me luck Salaam, Matthew
