Hi my name is Omed Baher and I’m 18 years old. I’m from Afghanistan and I was born here in the U.S. in 1991. I am a Shia Muslim. My family came to the United states in 1989 due to the situation in Afghanistan. I have two brothers; one older and one younger.
I come from a family of doctors. My father, grandfathers, and some uncles were doctors in my family. My one grandfather was a general in the army. My older brother is currently studying to be a doctor. He is still unsure of what type of doctor is going to do. He is currently studying at Rutgers. My cousin just finished college and is currently interning at Hackensack hospital.
I don’t do any sports my life was bodybuilding until a recent injury about 5 months ago screwed me over pretty bad. I lost about 16lbs of muscle. I just recently started workout again about 1 month ago. Its a long road to recovery but my plan is to get everything back by November hopefully. Its a difficult hobby but the rewards of it is great. Change you body change your life.
I’m currently planning to major in the health profession. Though I’m undecided on what exactly I’m going to do. I was thinking about being a physical trainer but when I told my parents that they weren’t to happy. I might still study but as a part time job.
This pretty much all I can think of about myself. I also speak Farsi (Persian) many people always make a mistake thinking that I speak Arabic. I took this class to learn more about my Religion because Most of the stuff I learned I unfortunately forgot many things. I hope to refresh my memory in this class.

my name is alaa jaouni and i am in my third year at Bergen community college. my major is radiology and i am taking this course because i am Muslim and i would like to learn more about my beliefs. i have gone to Arabic school back when i was young and i have forgotten everything i have learned. i hope this class will refresh my memory and learn more about my religion. i am now fasting for the holy month of Ramadan and i always like to learn more about what im doing during this holy month. i am twenty years old and i am currently a full time waiter and manager for a local restaurant and also a full time student. all my life i was raised to work hard and always try to exceed the limit and try to get my capabilities standard higher than i believed i could. I hope taking this course will not only be a just a 3 credit course to fill a requirement but i hope it will also be an enjoyable and great experience for me.

Hi my name is Omar Montano and I am new to this experience of online blog. I’m also very new to the Islamic scriptures you provide in this page. I’m of Dominican background so I do not know much about the islamic ways. I am looking foward to learning a whole lot more in your class that is why i am taking it. I am currently persuing a Bachelor on Business Management. I am hoping I can maybe open my own mechanic shop in the future because that is my passion in this world. I have not yet decided if I am going to graduate school to persue my Masters in this field.

Hi my name is Jaiwanttie Ramlochan. I am currently residing in Englewood, New Jersey. I was originally born in Guyana, South America but moved to the United States when I was just 12 years old. Most of the memebers in my household were Christian. Although my mother was Muslim and my father a Hindu by birth, they quickly saw and seized a different faith. Even though I respect everyone’s personal beliefs, I have never once regretted being a Christian. In my household religion is very important. Also keeping our priorities straight. Right now, I am attending Bergen to acquire enough credits to transfer to a University and start my studies of becoming a Physical Therapist or maybe a Pediatrician. I am not quite sure which one I will decide upon at the moment. All I know is that I want to be a part of the medical field so I can help change and save lives.

Hi my name is Angie, I’m a current BCC student. This is my last semester in Bergen will be transfering to WP. I’m not a religious person, but I do believe in respecting everyones religion and their beliefs. I took this class because I wanted to learn about the muslim religion and compare what critics have said about it, and also because I had one more class to chose in hamanities.

Hi my name is Noreen Mahmud and I am a junior transfer from Rutgers New Brunswick majoring in biology. I am Muslim of Pakistani decent and I am looking forward to a great learning experience mixed with fellow Muslims and non-Muslims to see how others perceive Islam since I am also minoring in religion. My faith is very important to me and I love expanding my knowledge on all religions, especially my own. I am studying to become an optometrist and hopefully set up free clinic programs abroad, mostly in Muslim populated areas. I once again look forward to this semester :]

Hi my name is Yasmeen Ismail. I am currently a biology major, my aim is a pediatric doctor. I am Egyptian and Ecuadorian so I was raised surrounded by different cultures and religion. Although I stayed strong with my islamic faith, I am eager to evaluate and understand my religion in different dephs. I also wanted to take the class so that i can communicate with other muslims my age and have an understandment on how they view islam. Hopefully, i would be able to accomplish the above in this class.

hey my name is Zohaib Bukhari but i’d rather be called Zo. this is my 2nd year here at bcc. i was majoring in dentistry last year but as of right now im undecided on what ill be taking up. my aim is more towards music because i love music alot. i’m a muslim and im taking this class to learn more about my religion. i knew a few things growing up that was taught to me by my father but i would like to know a lot more in detail about the religion and also to read the Qu’ran. I was never too religious just spiritual but as i got older i had a lot more stress and pain that i had to deal with that made me turn to religion and now ive become more religious and that is why im taking this class.
