One observation I have made is that those who are most knowledgable are those who would readily admit that they did not know something. Thinking back at the old days, the number of times my friends talked about something I had no idea about and I pretended to roll along with it.
It was the same with Islam. I wonder how many Muslims out there would admit that they don’t know Islam and would want to learn the Quran or learn to pray. Yet, most of us would be afraid to admit ignorance. The problem with that is, we will always be in a state of ignorance. I am so glad I have taken steps to rectify my life.
