    expensive Sister, I congratulate you in this success because of the fact the folk who're muslims by selection are extra suitable then the single, by risk. My expensive faith is a blessed achievment. It grows as you appreciate it and strenghtens as you carry directly to it. Sisiter, islam is a no longer a religon its a Deen. Religon is limited to ones ideals and Deen is an entire way of existence, so learn te lead your existence in accordance to Islam. Your mom and dad have a appropriate on you, so sure you may tell them and attempt to lead them to understand what you probably did, nevertheless preparation is completly interior the palms of Allah and Whoever Allah classes none can misguide, and whoever He enables to fall off course, none can handbook them aright. Ther isn't any impersonation in Islam be the type you're and behave the way a competent man or woman could. in case you experience like donning a hijab, you may because of the fact its between the embellishes of girls. would Allah furnish you and me the main suitable of religion. Ma'asalaama. (with peace)

    Check out the "Idiot's Guide" or the "Dummies" books. They cover all topics, so I'm sure they have them about religions. They're pretty good and they should cover a lot of the basics and then some. At Barnes & Noble, you should find a LOT of helpful books about Islam, it will just take some time to look through them for what exactly it is you want.

    Try 'How to build a bomb and strap it on your own children'.

    Or, 'How to stone rape victims while letting the rapist go free'.

    Both explain Islamic traditions.
