The one who brought me the information of the Quran at a time I could accept it.

peace boomerang,
After reading your post I wondered if your choice of username reflected how you felt.
My suggestion is take your time, read, reflect, question, build a strong foundation, grow and implement gradually. At times you might feel you are far away from God, but like a boomerang, it's only a matter of time before you return to the source. Keep this in mind and you will be fine.

Bubbles,
The problem with your suggestion is that the Sunni Imam will either mislead Boomerang, or be very annoyed with her if she's an assertive person. And there's the possibility that the Sunni Imam and his congregation will become violent towards her because of her belief that the Quran is the only Islamic text.
As long as her assertiveness doesn't turn into rudeness, most Imams would be courteous from what I've seen and I don't think he will mislead her. Its important that boomerang gets both sides of the argument and to have an understanding of what the other side thinks. It would probably be to her benefit.
If boomerang lives in the UK there is no way anyone will become violent to her in a mosque. -
I already go to a sunni forum, and i drive them nuts ;D.....I ask way too many questions, and I question things they do not like me questioning.......I also have questions about topics that they may not appreciate......
thanks for the idea though.....
(by the way, the nearest mosque to me, is around 250kms away!)
When I began reading articles on this website, I decided to ask the people on Ummah forum questions about hadiths, etc and they eventually banned me permanently. They didn't really give me the answers that I was searching for, but I found my answers from other Sunni sites. Looking back at some of the things I said on the forum I now realise how annoying I must have seemed to them, but I don't even believe in what I use to say to them anymore.
You live really far away from a mosque, it maybe a good idea to ask the scholars here questions

Peace Boomerang,
And they still didn't ban you!? ;D
No, I guess i am usually rather polite, and do things the ways they like things to be done.....they have never banned me, but remove my posts if i am too right! ;D They are a nice group of people actually.....hadith mad, but very accepting.....
They ask for too many duas though....... -

Its funny that you ask this question.....my name is Kylie and it means boomerang....the guy who set me upon the path of looking to the Quran, suggested to me that the boomerang always returns...."reverts"......I guess thats what i have done living away from God for the majority of my life, and then finding the Quran......I know it does sound like a weapon,....thats something I need to work on....but I am after returning to the source as you said.....Thanks for the reminder
Peace

I dont think we are annoying them, there may be one of them that looks at the way they have taken on their religion and sees there is another way to look at it....information and another way of looking at things can hardly be detrimental......I find they show me a lot too...
I will bookmark your link.... as another place to find answers from....Information seems to come to me, when I am ready for it I am finding....and most stuff either resonates in my heart or not......I'll sort this all out eventually.....
Thanks everyone
Peace

Im probably just nuts and should talk to God more ;D, but I really want to converse with another human about this predicament I am in internally.....I need a perspective out of my own head.....God willing...
PeacePeace,
Respectfully.You cannot be nuts because then you would be unable to know the state you're in.
You're not nuts, trust me.
We have all been on that road and i'm glad i took it.
You are right about one thing talk to God, ask God, ask God to lead you on the Right Path, because if you really want the Right Path, God will give it to you, if you want to follow scholars, God will allow you that too, He is very merciful and truly Merciful, The Most Merciful, that is why God does not want to force you into Islam,, God Himself says that He can make us all Muslims and also that He can make us all follow satan, He can do anything and everything.The Exalted God The Most Wise is offering you a choice want the Straight and Right Path, you got it.
Wanna go astray and be happy with that? You got it.It's up to you.
You have to make a decision.
You have a choice.So choose.
God be with you and keep reading the Quran. Trust me - the truth is inside the Quran.
Peace.
