    Assalamu Alaykum from Ireland

    Assalamu Alaykum

    I will just quickly introduce myself. I am a 27 year old from Ireland and have been a Muslim less than 3 weekssince 24th may).

    I was born a catholic but at about the age of 20 rejected religion and became an atheist. I was actually a quite militant atheist. The reason I began to study Islam (just over one year ago) was out of curiosity but also as I arrogantly believed I would find contradictions and mistakes within it.

    Very quickly it became evident to me that this religion was certainly from Allah and thus began my journy to Islam. I thank Allah for guiding me.

    I am the only Muslim in the area in which I live and the nearest mosque is 50 miles away so alot of what I learn is from books and online - hopefully this forum can help. I have much to learn but I am enjoying every moment of it. My life which seemed at one stage so empty is now complete in that I have found the peupose of life itself - to worship Allah.

    welcome to the forum,
    And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him.

    Wa Alaykum As Salam Brother

    Welcome to Islam.

    I am fascinated by your story.

    I have had endless debates with militant atheists on Facebook and have found them to be the toughest nuts to crack.

    It is very pleasing to discover that one such atheist has joined the family of Islam.

    Please share your story with us.

    I hope that Allah makes you withdrawal from Guiness and Craic easy for you.

    If there is anything you need please ask.
    Hasan al-Basree (rh) said, when he heard a group of people disputing, “These ones have tired of worship, speaking has become easy for them and their piety has diminished, so they talk.”
