Asalam alaykum brothers and sisters. I recently moved to Pennsylvania from California. I guess I still consider myself a new Muslimah since I just converted less than two years ago. I am so hungry for more Islamic knowledge and I was hoping I could continue going to classes for new Muslims...

Salaam and Eid Mubarak to all! :hijabi: I converted 7 months ago. I could probably list over a hundred reasons why I love Islam. But, what really enticed me towards Islam is that there is a logical answer to every question I could come up with. I am a former Catholic Christian and growing up...

May Allah swt give you more strength to hold on, BrotherKhalid. :tti_sister: Salaam

MaShAllah. :hijabi: Thanks so much shyhijabi for sharing that link. Very informative. JazakAllah khair. Salaam :hearts:

I don't think there is such thing as a bad name. But, there are some names that antagonizes Islam or might cause some confusion. Christian is a very common name among Christians (obviously). What if that person converts to Islam? I'm sure that person would want to change his name. :) I am a...

MashAllah! I remember when I converted several months ago. :tti_sister: Best decision ever! :hijabi: Very happy for you, sister. :hearts: Salaam.

Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with me, brothers and sisters. :hijabi: All posts are very helpful. :hearts:

Thank you so much for your replies! :) I love what you said Hard Rock Moslem: "Islam is not only a religion of cure, but emphasise more on prevention." JazakAllah khair. :hearts:

Asalaam alaykum brothers and sisters. :SMILY259: I am a relatively new Muslimah (converted half a year ago) and like any other convert, I am adjusting to the Islamic way of life. I used to be a Christian (Catholic) and as some of you may know there aren't much boundaries between a man and a...

I agree! I was a victim of misinformation about Muslims in the Philippines. Violence/Crime sells that's why news will often just concentrate on the dark aspect of any religion. Unfortunately, Islam seems to be their favorite. Look at FOX and CNN news. I think it was CNN who even had a news...

Asalaam alaykum :hijabi: Nice rationalization. I never thought of it that way. Thanks for sharing this. I very much agree with it. I'm surrounded by non-Muslims, too. I'm the only Muslim in our family. lozlg: This is my first Ramadan, too. My mom specifically worries that I might be...

Shukran! :hijabi: It's my first Ramadan so your post definitely helped. JazakAllah khair :hearts: I have a question: Is it better to pray first before breaking my fast? Coz that's what I have been doing since Day 1. Thank you in advance for all who will reply. :)

MashAllah! :hearts: Welcome to Islam dear sister. I was in the same situation as you four months ago. What I did was I told the Imam that I don't have Muslim friends. He introduced me to his daughters (almost same age as me)!!! They were so nice and volunteered to meet with me at least once...

MashAllah! Proud of you! :hijabi: I'm a convert, too. I know you're truly happy right now. :hearts:

Life without Islam wouldn't be life at all... :tti_sister: I'm a convert and I can honestly say that I feel that I have only started to live my life only after I have entered Islam. Salaam. :hearts:
