Becoming a member of LI is without doubt the best thing that I could ever have done. If it wasn't for LI, there would have been so many things that I would not know about the deen. It has totally re-shaped my perspective on life and made me re-evaluate what really matters. It has also improved my writing skills and my grammar as well as helping me to become better at thinking logically and debating. I have met many people here, both Muslim and Non-Muslim who are just brilliant. I can't imagine not having known some of these people. LI has also had a huge impact on my character and personality as I try to emulate the character of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) even when people are nasty to me.
Without LI, I would be lost. That's a fact! Great thread btw. :)

Ive been on the forum for quite a while, but never been very active on it reading all these posts makes me realise how beneficial it has been for so many of you, and InshaAllah I guess my intention is to take as much benefit from here as possible....and become more active, cos I still feel new :embarrass
:w:
:sl:
Alhamdulillah I have and will continue to benefit..though I wouldn't go as far as me being beneficial to others. InshaAllah maybe..
Take care
:w:

Hmm...I think a time will come when the most active members on Li will grow up and move on and the forum will be taken over by newbies...I feel myself moving on already :skeleton: :D

I found it.
The Shaheed who did not bow down to Allah once:
“On the authority of Abu Hurairah: Amr ibn Uqaysh had given usurious loans in pre-Islamic period; so he disliked to embrace Islam until he took them. He came on the day of Uhud and asked: Where are my cousins? They (the people) replied: At Uhud. He asked: Where is so-and-so? They said: At Uhud. He asked: Where is so-and-so? They said: At Uhud. He then put on his coat of mail and rode his horse; he then proceeded towards them. When the Muslims saw him, they said: Keep away, Amr. He said: I have become a believer. He fought until he was wounded. He was then taken to his family wounded. Sa’d ibn Mu’adh came to his sister: Ask him (whether he fought) out of partisanship, out of anger for them, or out of anger for Allah. He said: Out of anger of Allah and His Apostle. He then died and entered Paradise. He did not offer any prayer to Allah.”
[al-Haafidh said in al-Isaabah – its chain is strong, narrated by the group from Ibn Ishaaq]

I remember being really fascinated with Islam, and thinking that Muslims weren't hypocrites like the Christians I knew. I remember two things really standing out for me. One, being the focus on one Allah alone. I had always had questions about Christianity's viewing Jesus as God--and how that went against the first commandment. The second item that stood out was salat. Not just praying five times/day, but how the majority of the prayer focused on worshiping Allah.
By 5 years ago, I did buy myself a copy of the Qur'an, and began to read it. It was amazing. It just kind of went into my heart, y'know? The thing that really amazed me about Islam from the beginning, were the rights given to women. Then I went to search the Islamic forum and ahhh I have found here! I thought LI Forum will helped my faith more in my heart and it did! I am being to enjoyed so much to read lots of benefit threads in here and it did helped me to became to memorize all of the Holy Quran.
It does encouraged me to remember Allah Taala almost every day and it does made me to felt happy and lot different of emotions. Most LI members does encouraged me to read and I cannot imagined to without LI Forum, ohhh no! I will be surely lost!
Please please, Insha'Allah, to members keep this LI Forum to carry on for a long time for sake of Allah Taala!
So Jazaak'Allah Khair.
There was also the roman in the time when the muslims faught the romans in the big massive battle which many muslims were injured and killed.
The roman went to khalid bin waleed asked about islam and then embraced it, he consequently died in the battle that commenced.

Aww masha'Allah sis Fatima, such a heartwarming reply! May Allah (swt) keep you steadfast! Ameen!
Hmm, I think I've become a little less hyper lately, thanks to LI *embarassed*

AssalamuAlaykum
I was thinking about this thread during my break from LI...I think the time away did me good...Have calmed down slightly and my addiction has lessened, I no longer feel the attachment I used to feel (Dont know if that's a good or bad thing :p)...I'm now able to think rationally before I post rather than acting like an over-excited teen and saying things without thinking :-[
LI has changed, and so have I :popcorn:
WassalamuAlaykum
