Salamun Alaikum ;
I am new?just registered!
I would like to share my story , why I would like to learn more about ?Quran Alone? or ?GOD Alone?.
I came from a country with the number 1 muslim population, I was raise in a Sunni Muslim family however I found difficulties to accept and understand about the religion my family has taught me (especially when it came to Arabic reading, Rituals and Hadith that we must follow, not to mention prayer that we must say everytime we do this or that and ?lecture? favourite topic if not Hell then Aqidah.etc?) because I always asked myself if there is a GOD howcome it is so difficult to ?pleased? Him or why is it difficult be a ?good person? (according to their teaching).
Therefore I was then was not much a religious person?then one day it started around 2 years ago when I was brwosing the internet? I found the ?Submission.org? website?it talks about the 19 code as well other related topic to Islam (submission)? as for me it ?klik?..this is what I?ve been looking for! Since its make sense to me! (believe in ?One God Alone?) . Next I came to 19.org and finally to Free-Minds.
I read a lot articles from Dr.Rashad Khalifa, Edip Yuksel, Arnold Yasin, Dr.Ayman and Layth (may GOD bless them all for their contribution)? it was very inspiring and it open my eyes?I was so Happy that Finally I can accept and understand what ?Islam? was all about?and above all it is making sense! the Quran is for all the people who wish to learn (not necessarily in Arabic!) and GOD is the Most Gracious & Mercifull. I read Quran translation by Dr.Khalifa as well as the Message.
Now, I am still a Beginner and would like to learn more about ?GOD Alone? and ?Quran Alone??God Willing.
And Thanks for let me share my story!
PS sorry for my english?
Peace!

Welcome Qurani welcome
Another brother?/sister? had been shed with God's light. It's a peaceful journey to explore God's creation and His revelations. May God show you the right way.
I also had some trouble accepting the sunni tradition with the feeling of, if Islam easy why is it difficult to maintain the rules. God willing, i had realized the truth... still a lot to explore though... you'll find out soon enough..
Peace handshake

Salam Bro Fadli,
Thanks...I am a bro just like you...yes I fully agree and hoping to have that peaceful journey to explore GOD and his message...since we all have to learn and respect for each other in our believe right (no matter what you are)...May God show us All the right way..O mankind, We created you from a male and female, and We made you into nations and tribes, that you may know one another. Surely, the most honorable among you in the sight of God is the most righteous. God is Knowledgeable, Expert.
. And let there be a nation from amongst you which calls towards goodness, and orders kindness, and deters from evil. And these are the successful ones.

Welcome welcome.
I found free-minds as it was referenced by Irshad Manji in her book "The Trouble With Islam Today".
Folks here have been a supportive and brilliant bunch as I struggle with my own faith issues, but still try to stick to the straight path.
Irshad Manji visits this forum? Thats so cool! LOL
