Hello Thank you for letting me join this forum! I am an educator and I live in Colorado, USA. I have been exploring on my spiritual path. I was raised Lutheran, then I began to fuse my believes with Paganism, and now I'm not sure where to go next. I've researched Islam and much of what Islam reaches seems to resonate with me. I have come close to taking the Shahada, but, I'm not sure if I'm ready to take the plunge so to speak. So I am here to learn more and hopefully to find faith, whatever that may be.
A warm welcome to the forum oceanbreeze, it's good to have you.
Please do feel free to ask any questions you may have.
Hope you enjoy being here and find it beneficial.
May Allah guide you and us all, ameen.
Peace.

This is a clear message for mankind in order that they may be warned thereby, and that they may know that He is only One God, and that those of understanding may take heed (14:52)

Welcome to the site. You will find many extremely knowledgeable people here. May they help you on your path.
Taking Shahada can look like a big step. It certainly was for me. But all I can say is that when you do, you will immediately know that you did the right thing. And you will feel better for it.
Welcome to the forum. I pray you find the answers you are looking for. Anything on your mind please do ask.
Three simple rules in life:
1) If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it
2) If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.
3) If you do not step forward, you'll always be in the same place
Hello oceanbreeze. I'm Dan from Greenville, SC. I have family in Colorado and have visited many times. It's so beautiful there. I have a lot of respect for teachers, and I hear that they treat the teachers a little bit better in Colorado than they do here in the South. I hope that is your experience.
Welcome to Islamic Board! I have had a lot of great discussions here over the years. I hope you find as much value in it as I have.
Thank you all for the warm welcome! I’m excited to get to know you!
DanEdge that’s awesome you have family here! What part? Education here is a bit hectic but there are movements trying to make things better. I have only been to South Carolina in the airport so that doesn’t count haha, I want to see your state for real one day
