Interesting Times

             ~Seeking  the  Truth  &  Speaking  the  Truth~

            Welcome             

 We  live in interesting times for sure, where nothing is quite what it first seems.  I feel like I need a  SECRET DECODER RING just to decipher the truth behind what is daily offered up as fair and balanced, honest and impartial reporting by the information-light, personality-heavy corporate media.

 Words  can be used so very cleverly ~ to conceal more than they reveal, to manipulate more than they educate. Since converting to Islam in 2006, I have noticed this to be very much the case in regards to what is being said about Islam and Muslims in popular discourse. That this is leading to a 21st CENTURY HOLOCAUST  should be of great concern to every-one.  

 

 My  desire is first to seek the truth and then to speak the truth to the best of my ability. That can bring upon one's head both blessings and curses, but so be it. Truth is worth fighting for, living for, dying for. We must engage in the DECONSTRUCTION of the rampant misinformation and disinformation that stand in our way and work to expose the destructive agendas that give rise to them.

Islamic Reformation:
Understanding the Battle for Hearts and Minds

have not yet grasped the idea that
truth is the only safe ground to stand upon."

A Bit About Me

I am a convert to Islam as of the summer of 2006, thanks to Allah swt and to an online chat-friend who asked me many times over the course of a year to read a translation of the meaning of the Qur'an, which I finally did. Since then I have taken the name Salmah Umm Zainab. I am of Scots-Irish-Anglo-Native American descent and I live in a small town in the northwest of the USA. I am addicted to the internet and obsessed with truth ~ a serious-minded, light-hearted, divorced mother of one. I have one other website ~AKHIRAH~
