Muslims were also killed on 9/11

I was a Christian the day on 9/11. I was living in a small town in the Midwest, far from the Arab land and Islmaic Religion I am living now. On that day, I felt fear. Just as all the other Americans like me. There was one thing that differed for me though. I wasn't afraid of the big bad "mulsim" as most of the other people were around me. I didn't indulge in the hatred or the lets go get them attitude. No, instead I was afraid of the BAD people in the world. I was afraid of the fact that no matter who you were, or what religion you were, if the bad people in the world, whoever they may be, want to hurt you or for what your goverment stands for they will. From that day forward I was on a quest. I wanted to know more. I wanted to understand. I can honestly say now that I dont understand. I do, however, know more. I know that Muslims also died in the attack of 9/11. It wasnt just Conservative Christians or Jews. All of us were effected. I feel a great deal of sympathy on this day but yet at the same time a huge feeling of joy. Joy because today, 9 years ago, I was introduced to Islam. The wonderful religion that is now mine and millions of other people on this planet. I hate the fact that these "so called Muslims" are hiding behind the name of Islam to carry out there own crazy agenda. In the end, We all have God to answer to.

I have attached a list of Muslim brothers and sisters that also lost their lives on 9/11. May we all take a moment of silence for all or brothers and sisters who lost their lives that day. Christian, Jew, Budist, Hindu and Muslims..................................May God protect us all....

JazakaAllahu Khairn

Homesick

Feeling very homesick today. Missing the grilling out for Labor day. Not much "Labor Day Activities" here in the Middle East......

Some days I long for "the way it was". My life before. I don't miss the people per say, just the activities.

I am wondering, am I the only one that feels this way? Please, let me know I am not going crazy.....haha

A few of my favorite youtube clips..... Enjoy!

Different Amercian Views .....

Watch this clip.  Alhamdullilah!  I wish the whole world was like these 13 Non-Muslim Americans.  I think if we start to focus on the things we have in common, the differences wouldn't seem that great....InshaAllah, all in Gods time....

I give up!

I just got an awful message from my soon to be co-wife.  She called me a spoiled $@*^&!  Can you believe it?  For all I have done and sacrifised to make it easier for her to marry MY HUSBAND!  She acused me of saying something and all hell broke loose.  I have helped her with Islam as she is a new convert.  I have spoken to her and been nothing but kind.  I have looked the other way when I have seen or heard things that should not have been done or said.  I have given so much for this only to have it blow up in my face.

I have cried many nights about this.  Praying to Allah to give me guidance and patience and love in my heart for her.  Now this?  SupanAllah!  Thank you for the sign!

I told my husband that if he now wants a life with her, he can have it.  I no longer will be a part of their "life".  My heart cant take too much more.  I am dying inside and I dont know where to turn.

Forget acceptance and I can do my own dishes!!

Remember, this is not a court, no need to judge.
