Bismillahi Rahmani Rahim<\/p>\n

Salaam Alaikum wa Rahmatullah.\u00a0 In conjunction with my radio show, www.blogtalkradio.com\/sister-noorah, I am posting some links that will help people learn about Islam.\u00a0 From the absolute beginner, to the lifelong Muslim, all can benefit from these websites:<\/p>\n

I read these books, now available online in .pdf form, before I was Muslim.\u00a0 They present the beliefs of Islam clearly and in a readable manner:<\/p>\n

Islam in Focus:<\/u>\u00a0 http:\/\/www.sultan.org\/books\/islam-in-focus.pdf
Towards Understanding Islam:<\/u>\u00a0 http:\/\/www.witness-pioneer.org\/vil\/Books\/M_tui\/<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.islamicity.com\/\u00a0<\/b> \u2013 Excellent comprehensive site.\u00a0 Includes, well, just about everything!
http:\/\/english.islamway.com\/<\/b> \u2013 This site has audio lectures, a section just for ladies, many different Qur\u2019an recitors.\u00a0 It also has a flash player to show how to make the ablution for prayer, how to pray, and how to learn to read the Arabic alphabet.
http:\/\/english.islamway.com\/sindex.php?section=prayer \u2013 <\/b>This is the flash presentation at islamway.com to show how to learn the prayers.
http:\/\/www.quranexplorer.com\/ \u2013 <\/b>This is a Qur\u2019an memorization site.\u00a0 You can choose from several different recitors.\u00a0 Qur\u2019an in Arabic with translations in many languages.\u00a0 You can select each verse to repeat as many times as you need until you have memorized it.\u00a0 It also has color coded tajweed rules for more advanced students.
http:\/\/www.islam-qa.com\/en <\/b>\u2013 This is a comprehensive Islamic fatwa site.\u00a0 People submit questions and the staff answers.\u00a0 I like this site because there are new questions every day, and they give detailed answers with support from the Qur\u2019an and Sunnah.\u00a0 You can search the site using keywords if you need an answer to a particular question.\u00a0 The site is available in many languages, including French, Spanish, English, Russian, Turkish, and more.
www.islamicanswers.com<\/b> \u2013 This is a site where I am a contributor and editor.\u00a0 It offers everyone the opportunity to write in with any problem that needs an Islamic answer.\u00a0 It is not a fatwa site, but strives to offer correct and compassionate answers to issues that come up in the lives of Muslims and non-Muslims.
www.secondlife.com <\/b>\u2013 This is a virtual world, not specifically Muslim, but there are two Muslim locations there for da\u2019wah and education.\u00a0 They are Islamonline, which offers a virtual Hajj, and Ummah of Noor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
