    Four Years Later. My journey within Islam

    A'Salaamu Aleikom Where do I start? I Reverted to Islam in 2006 and since then things have become very difficult. Two months after reverting my wife of 14 years left me with two children, moving in with another male. I figured that it must have been for the best, according to the will of Allah...

    Your experience of Islamophobia??

    A'Salaamu Aleikom. I think my first experience of Islamaphobia was when my wife called me an aprentice terrorist, shortly after shehada, and then abondened me and our daughter. Anything after that just washes off my back like water.:SMILY231: W'salaam Aleikom Ibrahim

    Marrying someone elder than you and marrying someone who is younger than you

    A'slaamu 'aleikom I suppose it all depends, not on biological age, but on emotional maturity. My ex was 22 years my junior, she left me for some one younger than both of us, (12 years her junior, 28 y/o). Without being in any way judgemental, my 20 year old step daughter says he has the...

    Advice from my reverted brothers and sisters!

    A'salaamu'aleikom Sister Sakeena. I can understand your feelings of rejection and confusion. For myself, it has been the oposite to you. I am the parent, it has been my children, and my Wife that have rejected my beliefs. In the end, one has to make a choice. Whom do I fear the most? Whom do...

    Question to members

    A'salaamu 'aleikom. A very interesting question. I am not sure of the situation in other places, but here in Brisbane Australia, islam receives wide publicity through the activities of several organisations, for their charity work and their involvement in the general commuity. Eidfest is an...

    Converts & Christmas

    A'salaamu 'aleikom For myself, the December celebrations have been a non event for many years. That is the religious side of things. As for the other side, I would give 'Seasons Greetings", omitting the words that reffered to anything religious. But I should point out that I had come to a...

    Marriage (Choosing a partner)

    A'salaamu'aleikom. I read this and still I wonder. How many of us, when meeting for the first time, wear a mask? A mask that is meant to impress , hiding the real self from view? The post and subsequent replies are in many ways quite valid, but I would still ask myself whether the face I...

    Beware the lonely hearts rip off

    A'salaam Now, whenever someone contacts me in reference to possible marriage? I let them know that unless they are at least permanent residents of Australia, I am not interested. I also ask for contact details for their Masjid and, where possible, their Wali. It is indeed a sad realisation...

    Surviving in a Non muslim world

    A'salaamu 'aleikom Survival? Hmmm...Good question. I have become solitary. Treated as an outcast by my neighbours, but then again they do tend to overindulge a lot, and treated as a Curiosity by Muslims. You know, the sidelong look, smile then quickly move away. One Muslim actually had the...

    Beware the lonely hearts rip off

    A'salaamu 'aleikom. Internet dating? A complete waste of effort. Tried some so called "Muslim Marriage" sites, all I got were Visa seekers, Muslimah of Convenience and a whole lot of begging emails. W'salaam Ibrahim

    The loneliness of converts

    A'salaam 'aleikom my Friends Since placing my post on this topic, I have been talking to some other new Mulims about this problem or perceived exclusivity. most of the answers given have related to the suggestion that Revert Muslims build their own Masjid. The most obvious problem with this...
