ilmseeker.net
The word ilm in Arabic means knowledge thus “ilmseeker” literally translates to “knowledgeseeker”. This is something that I have been doing, am currently doing and will continue to do in sha Allah (God willing) throughout my life. My main area of interest when it comes to ilmseeking is learning about my religion, Islam.
So as you read I’m a Muslim. I believe in the Qur’an as the last Divine Revelation from God. I believe in all the Prophets of God, including: Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (may the peace and blessings of God be upon them all). I follow the Qur’an and the authentic teachings of Prophet Muhammad sal Allahu alayhi wasallam (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
Anywho, the purpose of the creation of this blog is to share information, ideas, thoughts, and random stuff about Islam and the Muslims, oh and not to forget: also to convey the message of Islam to non-Muslims.
