What’s involved?
In the western countries, there's a bit of fear and lack of understanding about Islamic religion and culture. The best way for us to all get along is to have a better understanding of what Islam really is and what it stands for.
This site, Discover Islam: http://www.beconvinced.com/archive/en/main.php
is intended for people to learn about Islam and the similarities and differences between Islam and Christianity and other western religions. It is a religious site rather than strictly educational but it has a lot of fun links including audio and video http://www.beconvinced.com/archive/en/main.php?action=multimedia.
The weblinks page will take you to a whole lot of Islamic religion and culture pages, even one where you can learn Beginner's Arabic! http://www.beconvinced.com/archive/en/main.php?action=weblinks
If you have any questions about the Muslim faith or Islamic culture, you can ask them here http://www.beconvinced.com/archive/en/main.php?action=contactus and someone from the website will email you the answer.
If you get a taste for Islamic culture, why not visit a halal restaurant? A directory of halal restaurants in Australia is provided here: http://www.halal.com.au/
If you are more interested in a religious experience, why not visit a mosque, the Islamic holy building? A directory of mosques in each state is provided here. http://www.hotfrog.com.au/Products/Mosques
Why should people do this?
