Who Am I?

For those who just started to follow me or came upon this blog by chance, let me give you a short bio of myself. I am half Arabic and half American. I grew up in a relatively American household and everything that goes along with those implications, holidays, practices etc. I never knew who are Beloved Prophet was nor did I know what Islam stood for. I grew up on Disney Channel and trying to follow the American culture. Only until recently, have I met my Arabic side of the family.My mother always told me there was One God, but thats as far as my religiousity went.  At the age of 16, I became interested in Islam. I went to community college at 17 and got involved in the MSA's. I was blessed to live in a Islamic community and was able to learn and distinguish what Islam stood for.  I am currently 21, married and have a child.

I haven't posted in quite a while, March of last year to be exact. However I have noticed that people still come and view my posts, Al-Hamdulilah. I don't really have anything in particular to post about. For me, I've been reading The Stories/Lives of the Prophets (peace be upon them all) in between Farah taking naps. My one in a half year old, going on twelve ;). Watching videos on YouTube, the usual. Not much of an update really. I don't have as much time as I want to dedicate to this blog or Islamic literature/lectures. However If anyone wants me to write about something in particular, or would like me to blog about certain things. Please shoot me a comment under this post. I would be more than happy to oblige. If it wasn't for the fact people come and read my posts, I would continue to be a silent blogger, just coming here on occasion. So If you want me to come out of hiding, let me know :-)!


JazakAllah Khairan Ya'll!
