assalaam wa 'aalikum....it has been a very long time....but alhamdulilah i am here....i just wanted to inform fellow bros. and sisters on this website that for the first time i am seeing some improvement in my country concerning muslims...we now have a wonderful,educational and inspiring TV station called (IBN) Islamic Broadcastiing Network....some of you may already have heard about it.....these people are really trying their very best and allaah will surely reward and make them more successful in giving dawah to the citizens of my country...so far i have seen Sheikh Yusef Estes(the bomb man!.....he's cool),Khakid Yasin,Sheikh Zeid, and an indian guy...oh i just forgot his name...anyways.....these persons are really making an impression around the world and i say ALLAHU AKBAR! oh the indian guy's name is Dr.Zakir Naik!.....insha allaah i would like to be part of all this....but i am having problems deciding between school and islamis studies.....i need some help there...i am sure there are others like me...plz advise me....i get so scared hearing about the punishment of Allaah for not obeying him and doing what is required of you...its like a personal conflict ,with yourself. truthfully, i would love to try learning the qur'aan (arabic), and the teachings of the Prophet(saw)..to my family first....then my friends...my community and throughout the world....i want to be like that of the Prophet's wives....humble, learned, respectful, pious and god -fearing......the final day is approaching and i am..as well as many others....are busy attaining their secular degrees and so forth!!!!!!! why? i really dont know.....but i am searching for alot of advice......thanks for reading......alhamdulillah!
