Islam students at LUC

Seeing how I haven’t blogged in like two weeks I figured I would give two for one. Well I have found some great news, well I don’t know if it is great but interesting to say the least. I recently found out that one of my cousins converted Islam, I thought it was the coolest [...]

Well with these two blogs one covered an easter break, and returning from break I had to miss class for personal reasons. In response to ilovegoodreads I think that ramadan is an incredible month that muslims go through. I can’t imagine how mentally strong that you have to be get through that month. I know [...]

Last Weeks class had to have been the most fun I have had in a classroom in the longest time. It was good to see the whole class actually participating and showing a different side to themselves. Also it showed how well people worked in groups as we all had to chip in and help. [...]

On a brighter note I have been showing up to class earlier than usual… haha still late but I am trying but I have been enjoying classes as of late. I feel like they have been more engaging with the movie and work groups, I hope we continue to do things like that. Working with [...]

Last week’s class was a good one. We finneshed watching “The Interupters” (Bad speller) and there was a very strong ending to the movie. You saw some of the people it followed starting to make some positive changes with their lives, which is what the whole program focuses on. Also we got back into our [...]

Since we had no class due to spring break, I thought I would tell everyone what I was doing. I pretty much spent their enitre day with my little brother and watch all types of cartoons and some ESPN because he loves that. So I spent the day pretty much being a bring brother. I [...]

In class last week we watched a film called Interrupted, and it was pretty much about an organization of people trying to keep the peace in the streets of Chicago. The way some of these people lived it  was like they had their own religion. Growing up in rough areas you basically are living not [...]

I was unable to attend class last week but I was told it was an interesting discussion. I guess I missed an interesting chapter of Muhammad’s journey and a great discussion. And I am upset I missed the start of  a good movie. The readings weren’t too bad, the “Story of Quran” was discussed and [...]

In class we continued talking about Muhammad’s life and the events that occurred. Also had a class discussion on what we would do if we felt that our lives were in danger. Most of the class participated and gave back some BS answers lol, saying they would fight back if they were to be robbed [...]

Last weeks class we continued on Muhammad’s biography, and to me it got more interesting. With Muhammad being a leader figure in Medina, he started calling some shots. In a way he provided safety for the people of Medina but kind of stopping the Quryash from invading the city. When the Quryash would travel they [...]
