Assallammu Alaiykum my dear brothers and sisters in Islam!
My Name is Julian, and im a 17yr. old in highschool. I converted to islam in the summer of 2007 with the help of a muslim friend and their very helpful father. I come from a family of Mexican christians, and when i finally decided to convert, it was a little scary to tell them. In the end Allah all mighty helped give me strength, and today my family knows and respects my beliefs.
Since i converted, i have fallen in love with Islam. Although i don't know arabic, i am still very determined to learn as much as i can about my religion. I hope that one day i will learn Arabic so that i can be able to better fully understand The Qur'an, Insha'Allah.
My friend found this website and told me about it, and i have found it to be very helpful, and i got a feeling of warmth from some of the posts members submitted. I decided to join with the intention to help my fellow brothers and sisters in anyway that i possible can, and to learn from them aswell!
I wish you all the best of luck in your journey to achieve Iman (true faith) and to bring your life closer to Allah. May He have mercy upon us all.
Wa Alaiykum Sallam. =]
