About Me:
Assalamu Alaikum to all my brothers and sisters in Islam. My name, to put it in full is, Mohammad Kamruzzaman bin Ibrahim Khan. I am a student, currently studying at university on a under-graduate program. I hope to become a journalist and by the grace of my Lord, hope to defend our religion against the bad media coverage we get day in, day out. I hope my Lord will make this a success for me. I originally had intentions of becoming a Lawyer - a Barrister (not Solicitor, I absolutely hate that job!!), hence the reason why I studied law. However, I realised how corrupt the profession is. Hell, is a price not worth paying.... Moreover, the morals of a lawyer are not always good. I was told by my teacher that Lawyers have to defend anyone that comes their way and win - most are there for the money, nothing else.... I get asked my many what denomination of Islam do I follow.... Well, I'm a Sunni Muslim yet I believe (as Dr Zakir Naik pointed out) that if anyone asks, you should reply 'just Muslim' as all Muslims are equal and we should stand united. I do understand that our beloved Prophet (p.b.u.h.) said that there will be 73 different denominations of Islam, but he also said the one group that follows him (p.b.u.h.), will enter Heaven. Let us all stand united and follow our the teachings of our beloved Prophet (p.b.u.h.) together, ameen.

Hobbies:
I have studied law, psychology, English literature and history in my A-Levels, aswell as general studies and key skills. I am confident in everything I do because I believe my Lord will help me, if my cause is good. Also, I can read and write in English and French and and quite basic in Bengali and Spanish. I can understand Hindi and basic Urdu. I also want to learn Qur'anic Arabic so that I can understand the Glorious Qur'an, as I've been told that its better that way (in terms of understanding). However, I'm currently busy with my studies and Islamic studies (you can never learn it all....), Insha Allah one day I will learn to understand Qur'anic arabic. Ive currently changed my uni course, I was studying History at Goldsmiths College (University of London); but now I'm studying religion and philosophy at SOAS (University of London).

Movies:
Its difficult to choose a favourite movie but I would say my favourite movies are The Message, 300 and the Lord Of The Rings trilogy. Also, The Kingdom of Heaven.

Books:
The Holy Qur'an - come on, can you name me another book that comes close to the genius of the Holy Qur'an? It is the book of all books. Theres this book, its a true story and probably one of the most most heart breaking tragic human life books Ive ever read. Its called 'The Little Prisoner' and it by Jane Elliott. I just love reading and the 'Auto-Biography of Malcolm X' is a brilliant book, I'll recommend to everyone.

Music:
My favourite music are nasheeds, in particularly Sami Yusuf, Zain Bhikha, Yusuf Islam, Dawud Wharnsby Ali, Ahmed Bukhatir and Native Deen. I also like some nasheeds by Outlandish. Also, my favourite Quran reciter is without a doubt Sheikh Abdur Rahman As Sudais. The Sheikh has the greatest voice I have heard.
