im a 20 year old (salafi) muslim girl who presently lives in birminham. i was born in london, but i dont think of myself as a londoner as ive spent soo many years out of the city.. ive lived abroad in saudi arabia, and dubai through most of my childhood.. i know in my details it says im a revert... and techinally i am.. but i dont really feel i am half the time...my parents converted to islam when i was 5 years old. Being only a child at the time, the transition from 'cristian' to muslim wasnt a hard one...it just was..and i embraced islam with a child like wonder. i wont lie, growing up as a muslim girl has not alwas been easy for me....but alhamdulilah im still here....to tell the tale. i was also able to embrace islam myself in my early teens and that put my life into a positive perspective... im quite passionate about my religion. i wear the hijaab, pray, dont drink and also don the abayah. With regards to my personality, id have to say im a very determined motivated individual. it might strike some people as me just being over competitive sometimes, buts its just the way i am... i like a little challenge in my life sometimes. Ive got a good sense of humour (so im told :)),i'm patient and caring (well i suppose id have to be in order to be the profession im studying)
