Awww... thank you all for the lovely welcome. :wub: And for the record - I'm open to PM's if people want to get in touch with me that way! Thanks - I might hold you to that! Salams Mehdi Yep, I converted from Christianity. The brief version is that I met a man through work who is Muslim. He seemed like a lovely man but he said he was Muslim. It was in 2001 and the Western world was upside down with 9/11. I really liked this man but, oh my gosh, he was the enemy wasn't he?? So I began to learn about Islam to prove to him how bad his religion was, and along the way found out it actually answered all the questions I had being Christian. As I learned more it became clear to me that Islam was the right path to travel down. And that's the short version! Salams hijabikel
