Muslims don't tell  the uglier side of Islam to  \nwomen . She is a second class citizen\nin her own home. She must obey, without question, her husband's orders, agree, without voicing her opinion,\nhis opinions and criticisms, even criticism of her with\nno allowance for appeal. It is accepted within Muslim culture\nfor him to beat her to keep her in line. And he may marry\nmore than one wife.  \n   Your sons will be become targets for Muslim clerics who\nbrainwash boys to become martyrs for Allah.

MASHALLAH :-))  Congrations on your reversion to Islam.\n\nI think it is important that in your heart that you feel Muslim, and take your Shahada, then everything will follow from that!  God will understand that it is difficult for new muslims. After all the Quran was revealed over a period of 20years. So the first followers had a long time to make adjustments.\n\nYou will be suprised how many things come naturally :-)\n\nFor Islamic clothing a muslim women must cover all her areas accept for her face and hands (feet are also ok - no need for socks in the summer) and it must not show her curves or be see-through, when she is in public or the company of unrelated males. Clothing can take many forms to cover her culture as long as it keeps to those basic rules.\n\n I suggest you first start wearing lose clothes, and long sleaves, and long skirts /trousers. And then a head scarf.\nI remember when I first started wearing a headscarf, everyday for the 1st two weeks, I said I would never wear it again! But really it became easy, now I much prefer to wear a headscarf. I like matching them to me clothes, and it means I never have a bad hair day.  I suggest buying nice colours so they are fun at first to wear. I find a square type the easiest. It suits my face, and I just fold in a triangle , and pin it under my face. Headscarfs are easy to buy online, Or in any area with Muslims.\nYou might later want to wear a jilbab (a long jacket outer garment) but for now a think basic hijab is enough. You dont want to be too daunted :-)\nBTW wearing the hijab his great , you will notice you get a lot more respect :-)\n\nWhere do you live?  If you live in the UK perhaps I could tell about some sisters circles.  PM me if you need any help.\n\nGood luck 8-))

Ok... Some pratical challenges facing muslims living in western countries.....\nProblems with how the banking system complys with Sariah law. How can muslims take a mortgage when lending money at interest is forbiden.\n\nHow to find a halal job. Can you work in a supermarket that sells alcohol.  Does your company support the war on Iraq, how can you square that with your beliefs.  Can a women wear her hijab to work? etc

Here, we see a truthful person of Islam. No pretensions, undoubtly real and is a true human being. \n\nMy friend there is nothing wrong with you. You know what makes you suffer is the f***ing tradition and a derailed belief. We cannot solve the problem for you but we do understand you. If you understand what spirituality can do, why not explore on this aspect since it is a solid factor in terms of controlling such human weakness but if it is really difficult for you then follow your heart just as long as you don't go beyong the line. You know what I mean?

I will list the major effects of Islam on a Muslim's daily life.\n\nIslam requires Muslims to pray 5 times a day. Each prayer normally will take less than 10 minutes. Washing of face, both hands and legs are to be done before prayer. The prayer times are early morning, noon, evening, after sunset and night. \n\nAnother important thing is fast during ramzan month. Eating, drinking and sex is to be avoided from dawn to dusk during this month.\n\nA fixed portion of his/her wealth has to be given to charity each year.\n\nApart from these there are other moral and duties that a muslim has to observe, some are very general like enjoining kindness to youngers and respect for elders, dealing with justice even if it is against you or your group etc. Anything done as a service to others is seen as a good deed. Even removing obstacle from the road, smiling when you see others are all considered good deeds. \n\nI think this space is too small to enumerate all the aspects in detail. I have given only a brief idea.

Hi Samaneh.\nyou haveasked bout mahdavikia and his wifes. In fact it's an interesting subject for me too, therefore I have asked mybrother in Germany about this subjec. He told me that some newspapers have had some reports and even some pictures about Mahdavikia's second wife so called "Samira". But he was not sure if the mentioned news was true or not ... . One more interesting thing; in the news they have said that she is pregnant!\nRegads,\nmeti_delpiero

Sure, I would marry a brave Muslimah of course with hijab. Looks like you're deeply hurt, don't you have any mosques or Islamic center in your area so that you get some help and advise. Peace!

I think it's a very noble cause that you are wanting to undertake. Pray, my friend, and God will help you. I am not a Muslim but I respect Islam and I know it must hard for you being an American Muslim. I am so sorry for the way Muslims are treated in our country. It is not the American way. I think if you keep your faith strong and pray often that God or Allah will make it happen for you. God speed, friend. Tina, Houston, Texas
