Islam
Get flash to fully experience Pearltrees
By Brother Alex (Dallas, TX) As a new Muslim, you will have trouble keeping up with prayers every day, fasting during Ramadan, and the many other practices in this religion. The struggle that we face, with such a radical change in lifestyle, is difficult and will take some time. Awkward moments are bound to happen, don’t fret. You are not expected to wake up at 4am every morning to pray tahajjud (extra night prayers). If you have problems with certain practices, then gradually work yourself into the mindset of worship.
12 Tips for the Convert Muslim
The Angry Arab News Service/وكالة أنباء العربي الغاضب
I was switching channels yesterday, and I stumbled on a program on Syria on Hariri TV. There was Anne Barnard of the New York Times (they said Anne of the New York Times so I assumed it is her). Everything I assumed about her from her writing was confirmed. She is overwhelmed with the story that is covering; 2) she really is too ill-equipped in training and study and background to cover the story--she had to struggle a great deal to pronounce--sorry, to mispronounce--the name of Riyad Ash-Shaqfah; 3) she is--I assumed all along--under the influence of the Hariri press office in Lebanon which is directing all foreign journalists in Lebanon and guiding them to contact certain numbers in Syria and putting them in touch with the "refugees" in Al-Qa` and other areas in Lebanon; 4) she is a huge supporter of the Syrian National Council. But she surprised me that she turns out to be a huge fan of the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood.

halaltunes - easiest way to listen to the quran online
There are plenty of sites online where one can download mp3s of many reciters and listen to it, but sometimes we find ourselves online either at work or school or anywhere and we don't have time to download the files or we don't have them on our computer/mp3 player. This is where HalalTunes comes in. We make it extremely easy for anyone anywhere around the world online to listen to the Qur'an without having to download. Halal Tunes offers the fastest and easiest way to listen to your favorite reciters without having to download.I would be lying at this point, if I kept up the hopeful charade of jump-starting this community into action and developing a more united Ummah with services that extend our religion to our lives and our community, both Muslim and non-Muslim. I have so much to say at this point...I am not sure where to start. I think I will update my life first and then in a series of other posts I will update the rest as I tend to be long and rambling. :) Mohamed went back to Egypt for a bit.
