Getting Nervous

I'm getting a bit nervous now. I've signed up for another intensive course! Thanks to Saira from Italy, I will be taking the Taleem Al Quran evening courses. I am excited but also a bit nervous about the work load.

Wed 5:30-9:30 - Taleem Al Quran
Thurs 5:30-9:30 - Taleem Al Quran
Fri 6:30-8:30 - Tajweed in Hartford
Sat 1:00 - 3:00 - Al Baseerah course
Sun 12:30-1:30 - 40 Ahadeeth class

About a month ago I was getting that itch to start studying seriously. I wanted to increase my knowledge of Islam, but could not find a source that fit my budget. Alhamdulillah all of these new opportunities to learn have come my way, and I think I can manage the cost as well.

Its been over two years since I reverted, and since then I've never stopped wanting to learn about Islam. I've always got 2 or 3 Islamic books going at once. I skip back and forth between them so I can absorb the most information. Its something I never tire of. Mind you I was not like this before, there was nothing that ever captured my heart and mind like this.

So as I get ready to start this intense workload, I am nervous, but mostly I'm just really excited to be learning more about my deen.

Salaam sis,

MaashaaAllaah, it's so great you can really pursue knowledge at such a schedule. InshaaAllaah when I finish my degree I can as well--I'm so sick of engineering I would vomit up all I've learned if only I could replace it with knowledge of Islam.
