About Me:
I am a recent revert to Islam. I am learning so much everyday and striving to be what Allah would have me to be. I am a mother, wife, poet, and writer. There is enough that I don't know about Islam to create a whole new universe, what I do know is that There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is his prophet(PBUH) and from truth I plan to learn, grow and prosper daily.

Hobbies:
I am eager to learn and grow in Islam. When I first accepted Islam I felt very isolated, it was like learning how to walk all over again. After a whole lot of prayer and meditation I came to the realization that just like when learning to walk you will look and feel awkward sometimes, you will become frustrated and want to give up sometimes, you will even stumble and fall, but Insha Allah you will get up and it will get easier. Everything that happens to us on our Journey happens because it is the will of Allah, and remembering that helps to make trials and tribulations easier. I've just been searching for the lessons and the blessings,Alhamdulillah! We can't always see the forest for the trees but Allah created us and them so in Allah I put my trust, and I search for guidance from Allah, and from the Holy Quran,the example of the Prophet Muhammad(PBUH),the authentic Hadith, and Sunnah.

Books:
The Quran, Islam in America, The Pillars of Islam & Iman, Drowning in My Own Spit(a book that I wrote), The autobiography of Malcolm X, Roots, The Color Purple, How the other Half Dies, anything by Mya Angelou, anything by Toni Morrison
