i spied on everyone for a bit then decided i needed some good muslim company... and here i am :P

[AabiruSabeel]

The Imaams of the Haramain discussion was moved to Islamic Board. I was looking for it when the previous forum was either shut down or had a major change and someone referred me to Islamic Board.

[Tilmeez]

A poll has been added. Kindly vote. If any other option is missed please mention it someone will add it to poll.

[Riana17]

hmmm thimk i googled then i fall inloveee

['Abd Al-Maajid]

I had searched for 'islamic forum' adn the second result was islamicboard.com after gawaher.com.

[~Raindrop~]

It was a long time ago, but I came across the forum quite by accident. Can't remember what I was searching for, but the first thread I accessed was one about er... pizza.

[Marina-Aisha]

someone gave me alink on another forumas there werent many sisters i could talk to...

[إحسان]

I searched on Google: Islam Forum

:shade:

[Ramadhan]

:sl:


I searched for "Islamic discussion Forum", and i think there was a website that had a list of top 20 (or maybe top 40? can't remember) islamic discussion forums and clicked on all of them (including ummah, gawaher, islamic-life, islamicity, 7th century generation, turntoislam, sunniforum etc) , but I only got stuck with this one :)

[Banu_Hashim]

I wanted to become more practising, meet brothers and sisters, engage in Islamic topics and learn more about my deen. I googled "Islamic Forum" and this site was the first link. Alhamdulillah, for this site is all I can say. I have truly benefited from it in many ways. I have also subsequently come across lots of Islamic forums but have stayed loyal only to this one... even if I have gone AWOL a few times in between :skeleton: I still refer to it as LI by the way! Old habit.

[sis muslimah]

a sister told me bout this forum =)

[Darth Ultor]

I just typed in "Islamic forums" on Google. What is the Jannah Network?

[Aprender]

I wanted to learn about Islam and see how Muslims interacted with one another so I typed in Islamic message board and this popped up.

[Banu_Hashim]

I just typed in "Islamic forums" on Google. What is the Jannah Network?

A global conglomerate, soon to take over the world! :P

[Beardo]

A global conglomerate, soon to take over the world! :P

Well, that's one way to put it. :statisfie

[Samiun]

:sl: Like some members, I googled 'Islamic Forum' or smthing like that and found this site. What made me stay was perhaps t3h Advice & Support section where you can anonymously post personal problems or questions.

[alhamdulilaah]

Asalamu-alaikum,

Really don't remember, how I found Islamicboard.Should have noted down in my diary.

[Innocent Soul]

I also searched Islamic forum like all the other members above. :D I did not like it a t first because it seems crowded after an year or two I started liking it and then the same case as Sis Raina. :hiding:

[marwen]

This won't help too much in the publicity/marketing way, because it's so long and complicated to simulate it again;

Abtract : Mainly googling, I went here because I hated FB. It was an alternative, until I realized this forum is a wonderful place. Thank's to FB

many years ago:p saw my sister visiting this forum(dont know how she found it)..i was just curious whats this all about. so decided to enter here but first i felt this place is full of highly knowledgeable people and i was feeling dumb but now i m too in love with this place..

[Tilmeez]

first i felt this place is full of highly knowledgeable people and i was feeling dumb but now

.... you know it was just a miss-under-standing :X

[~ Sabr ~]

:salamext:

Googled "Islamic Forum"

[ardianto]

Google search for "Islamic Forums"

But I wait for few weeks before I join in Islamicboard. It's because I was afraid I would not able to discuss here. My English was very very bad. It's ironic because my parents were very good in English.

My dad had high TOEFL score. It made government sent him to take engineering course in Japan, Hawaii and in University of California Berkeley. My mom? She was English course teacher. :D

But I was too lazy to learn English.

But later I realize, if I do not have courage to try I will never able to discuss in English. So, I decided to join in IB.

I remember, the first time I joined in IB I felt inferior because my bad English. So, I wrote I "I shall learn English in an English course near my home". But bro North Malaysian replied "Tak usah, cukup aktif di forum saja" (You don't need to do it, just active in forum).

I know, my English is still far from perfect, but I am sure, it's better than when the first time I joined in IB

[Galaxy]

I don't remember, I think I got here through a link to a thread.

[syilla]

I think there is already a thread on this :omg:

[Beardo]

^ Please read the first post. As I had mentioned, I know there is already a thread like this.

[Abz2000]

i got here through random browsing, found i needed to stick with a diverse Muslim community which is almost impossible in daily interactions,
and hope Allah brings through it a lot of goodness & blessings :statisfie

[M.I.A.]

I actually can't remember how I came to be on the forum lol.

Alhamdulillah, does not often happen.

:p

[sister herb]

Funny but also I don´t remember. Maybe because I joined 9 years ago... ;D Bad memory I have to say.

[Ahmed2014]

I got invited by one of the site admins and mods

[strivingobserver98]

I was just randomly browsing Google and searching about Islam. Then I found a really informative thread, and clicked on the forum to see what it's about. Long story short became the new owner of the forum :).

[lonewolf007]

well i was already with another forum and it went down for a long time and so i decided to check out other islamic forums and came across this............initially i didnt want to join but i though this forum was cool and friendly and the peeps were warm and friendly too..........so i stayed lol and post every now and then :)

[BeTheChange]

Asalamualykum,

I can't really remember if am honest.

I think it was a google search but am very glad i've found an online Muslim community. Alhamdulilah.

[greenhill]

I came across this and several other sites when I was searching for answers on the Web and found plenty of distractions (interesting articles) from various sites. Wanted to read them all but somehow couldn't and didn't find them again, or forgot as there were numerous.

Don't know what it was exactly that made me join this one. It may be because it was more grounded and that you had to have your sources to make a claim (kind of thing).

Why I joined was to differentiate between what is custom and what is sunnah (in simple terms).

:peace:

[AhmedGassama]

This is a pretty good website mash'Allah, but i can't be active in it due to time

[Celebrimbor]

I was looking for illuminati and I found this. lol

[Physicist]

I was searching Google for some particular questions about Islam. As soon as i remember 'Islam about gun control' brought me here.
Also, I've been looking for muslim forums recently, the discussion level here i liked most and decided to join.
I'm very new to Islam, hope you'll tolerate my ignorance :)

[New 1]

I googled Islamic Forums.:statisfie

[Muhaba]

Search, though I'm not sure whether it was Google or some other

[azc]

By chance

[crimsontide06]

Google search

[SSHorror]

Google search. I just typed in "Islam forum" and bang! The second result was this forum.

[noraina]

Assalamu Alaykum,

I was randomly browsing through the internet for some GCSE assignment a couple of years ago and I found this forum to be a treasure chest of knowledge - I lurked around for about a year before actually joining.

[Hamza :)]

@farhan asked me to :p

[Souljette]

I remember I found this board in the loneliest of times..I just came to deen and moved right after and didn't want to lose my deen because of lack of companions so searched for a forum and this came up and. Lovedddd it because it had more knowledge then lame conversations and no matter where I go how busy I get I come back Alhamdulillah

[AyserMuhammad]

I searched "Islamic Forums" on Google. Takbir, this is better than Facebook.

There is less haram stuff on here compared to Facebook.

[Raptor]

Google search if I remember correctly

[Pygoscelis]

The name alone. It is so aptly named it didn't even require a google search. I was curious about Islam and wanted to dispel some myths about it following 9/11. I figured there must be something called "Muslimforum.com" or "Islamicboard.com" and there was.

[Muhaba]

Well, I remember it like it was yesterday. well not quite. But I was on this Muslim forum - I don't remember it's name- and that was shut down and then I searched for forums and found this one. And I liked it better than the other because it had a community feel to it. And I loved the creative section, especially the writing contests. This forum changed my fiction writing to Islamic fiction with a moral. Before coming here I had mainly written about nonmuslim characters and not much short stories. And then because I was told writing fiction was like lying and because my stories were of nonmuslim characters, I had decided to stop writing fiction, but finding the Islamic themed story contest, I tried a different type of fiction writing and loved it. It was really the first time I could write a whole story. And so that was how it was. I guess I loved the IB community style and the mix of serious discussions and friendly interaction.

[MorbidEntree]

I found the forum via Google by searching something like "Islamic forum." I figured looking for one would help me better understand Islam and interact with active Muslims who could help me.

[Umm Abed]

Someone introduced me to this forum a couple or so of years back, and I was lurking on and off, until I decided it was time to register:)

[Serinity]

Through a friend, I think.. may Allah SWT guide him back.

[Cpt.America]

Kiro told me to be here

[Alfarrassani]

I was searching for something when I stumbled here, was afraid this was some messed up 'ya know' forum (Pardon me I'm from Indonesia, y'all know the situation), but then Allah gave me a pleasant surprise!, a gathering of insyallah the Ahlu Sunnah Wa al-Jamaah!.

Pray to Allah for me brothers and sisters! (And pray to Allah for me so that Allah might bless me with a beautiful, Sholeha, and intelligent wife!) Hehe.

I told her why don't u Google it. She said noo it's against the rule of the game I can't Google it.lol like asking your sister is ok but googling is not ok.
One day I was standing beside her I got curious what the heck is she doing.She said it's a good forum but I was not interested due to my poor english.She said there is a urdu section as well.I was like ok.I joined it and alhumdulillah I was blessed with good friends here.
