    I converted not long ago now, I have no regrets. Mash'Allah!

    From the start I recognized that I could not accept the Hadiths, and that guidance from the Qur'an only was the greatest guidance

    I am so happy that there is a whole community here that believes the same as I! I look forward to a long journey of learning and understanding, as well as getting to know all of you.

    May the blessing of Allah be on you all

          Greetings and Peace, all group

          @Zhang welcome

          The greatest Guidance is ALLAH. Al Qur'an is just gravy! With Guidance like this, there is no valid reason why the Deen can't be part of our lives.

          AQ contains hadith--as it states. It is extra-Quranic hadith that should not mix with the Deen. For purposes other than the Deen, one should feel free to consult whatever hadith is useful--a cookbook for cooking, a car repair manual for car maintenance, and storybooks for telling children bedtime stories.

          It is sad to see so many believers in hadith. However

          2856 You cannot guide whom you love. But it is GOD who guides whom He wills; and He is fully aware of those who receive the guidance.

          494 O you who believe, if you go forth in the cause of GOD, you shall investigate carefully. And do not say to those who greet you with peace "You are not a believer!" You are seeking the vanity of this world; but with GOD are many riches. That is how you were before, but GOD graced you, so investigate carefully. GOD is expert over what you do.

          4125 And who is better in the system than the one who submits himself to GOD, and he is a good doer, and he follows the creed of Abraham in monotheism? And GOD took Abraham as a friend.

          Hope to see you around! )

          peace

          ~Abdul-Hadi

                      Thanks for all the warm welcomes!

                      What is your background? Your name/nick sounds like you are from the far east.

                      A family with whom I am very close each took on an English name when they came to the USA, so I decided to take on a Chinese name )

                      I hope to pose a few questions if I can't find them using the search feature soon. I have much to learn, I don't speak Arabic (just English and Mandarin) so I look forward to your insight on these matters.

                      Peace. peace
