Salam Alikom.

I'd be glad to help.. u can contact me.

1- I'm a Muslim (Egyptian), u may call me Sunni, as Muslims who don't join any sect are called Sunni. other sects emerged 1st from political arguments that turned last to have reflections on religion.

2- coz Islam wants Muslims to be attracted to the character, not the shape of the prophet

3-holidays: Fittr (After ramadan) and Adha (during hajj) feasts

4-sure.. make some search about alcohol and pork meat and what's meant by halal food .. and in case of activities all is allowed, yet don't say I can dance in front of foriegners!

5- we know the direction from the magnet... I don't know the name!.. every country knows the angle of deviation from east or west, and measure it by devices.. before devices, we used to measure by sunrays and shade.

6-we have friday yes (jews have saturday, dear)

7- we believe in Jesus the messiah.. and believe he's a prophet sent from Allah just like prophet Moses anr prophet Muhammad

8- any Muslim can be a leader in prayer.. a woman can lead fellow women, a man can lead all... we call any leader in prayer: Imam

9- I had, but when I was young (9 yrs).. can't describe the warmth I felt there.. as if this house doesn't sleep.. it never closes or is out of people.. marvellous!.. I remember I slept there and when I was awaken I didn't want to go back with my father ^__^

10-what is wadi As-salam? I didn't hear of it!
