As Salam Alaykum,
I embraced Islam seven years ago, adopting Suhaib as my Islamic first name. I am a 23-year-old university student, who stumbled upon this forum while undertaking some research. Everything is according to the Will of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala), containing wisdom and a deeper purpose.
I notice that the majority trend on this forum is of the "Salafi" movement. I was a zealous Salafi youth for about four years after my conversion but have since rejected their approach. I follow the Maliki madhhab and am studying the Shadhili-Darqawi tariqa of Tasawwuf (I know this already makes me a "heretic" in the eyes of many here).
However, I don't intend any arguments or polemics but rather to discuss the issues which divide us, in a constructive and logical manner. I look forward to these and other general discussions, and indeed to further correspondences. Jazakallah khair.
