Change "hey hello" into "Assalamu alaikum", and change "im stupid and" into "I".

Still sound stupid ?.

Asalaamu Alaikum Wr Wb, my sister do not feel embarressed or "stupid" for wanting to learn how to pray and read the Qur'an. There is nothing "stupid" in wanting to get back your deen and get closer to Allah. Allah has given you the ability to go towards him so take the opportunity and do not let shaythan make you feel as though you are "stupid" for he is not wanting you to come towards Islam but to stay away from it. There are COUNTLESS Muslims out there who learn how to pray Salaah and MANY are much older than you are. So do not feel ashamed or embarressed but thank Allah for giving you the ability to go towards him.

I have contacted a couple of Masjids and have some numbers for you to contact:

First number for you is Sister Ugur Clare at 702-272-2844.

Also Dr. Saleha Baig at 702-686-4469 or email
[email protected]

or sister Fatima at 702-336-7440
or email
[email protected]

Get in touch with these sisters as they organise Islamic classes and activities for sisters in the Las Vegas area and they will be more than willing to help you and involve you and help you in whatever you need to learn inshallah.

Once you get involved then you can meet many other sisters who are in the same position as you and you will think to yourself "why was i ever feel embarressed to come forward for help"?

You will also make many new friends inshallah and be involved in various Islamic activities and inshallah in no timke you will have learnt how to pray and read the Qur'an and you can then also learn the Arabic language as well as about Islam in much more detail.

So take the step now sister and disregard you eternal enemy shaythan who just wants to destroy your confidence so that you never go towards Allah. Ramadan is coming so get involved now and do not wait until tomorrow for tomorrow may never come!

and Allah know best in all matters

Thank you sis! I am so nervous. I need to go pick out something to wear. is it bad if i wear jeans? and obviously a long sleeve shirt...

Asalaamu Alaikum Wr Wb, Don't worry you will be fine. My sister try to wear loose clothing as oppose to jeans which can hug on curves. The sister who you will go and see will advise you further on this matter inshallah.

Remember you are now moving forward so make the best of every second and concentrate on now and the future. Take lessons from the past so that you can do things better in the present and the future. Thank Allah abundantley who is wanting to guide you so that you can become closer to him. Please him as much as you can and your heart will feel satisfaction, contenment and peace that you have NEVER imagined or felt before.

and Allah knows best in all matters

bro , u must be joking ? A Muslim woman must not wear similar like men and the vice versa.

(i am wearing the purple one but its an intresting point)
 
So i just got back from the last prayer. Ok it was over a while ago but the lady stayed after with me and her and (believe it or not) another revert talked about prayer proper order a ton of stuff really. I had a fantastic time and everyone was soooooo nice. i really had a good time. She gave me a bunch of stuff to read and the hard part will be memorizing it all but i am hopeful.

I dont know i just feel fantastic. i was sooooooooooo nervous and everyone was so open and welcoming. I feel like i am on cloud 9 :-)
