My name is Ali , Im a 29 year old Mexican American or as some would say a Chicano. People have a wrong perception About Islam and Muslims, what little they know is usually from movies and television which is almost all the time false. My life before was bad, I had no direction in life.

I was wasting my life away by dropping out of school in the 11th grade. I would hang out in the streets with my friends partying getting high, drinking and selling marijuana, most of my friends were gang members, I myself was never in a gang. I knew most of them before they were criminals and drug dealers so it was not a problem. I slowly began to use harder drugs, I had dreams but they seemed to far away for me to make them reality.

The more I became depressed the more I turned to drugs as a temporary escape. One day A friend of mine told me that he knew where to get some good marijuana, I was eager to sample and buy some so I agreed to go check it out. We arrived and went inside this apartment there were a couple of people inside, we sat around and talked for a while and sampled the weed.

My friend and I bought some and were getting ready to leave when my friend said one of the guys there invited us to his apartment to give him a book. We left for this guys apartment when we got there, he gave my friend a book and asked him to read it, and said that it might help him out with his problems in life. On the way home I asked my friend to show me the book that the guy gave him, it was the Quran (Koran).

I had never in my life heard of The Holy Quran, I began to briefly read some pages while I was reading I knew that what I was reading was true, it was like a slap in the face, a wake up call. The Quran is so clear and easy to understand. I was really impressed and wanted to know more about Islam and Muslims. The strangest thing is that I was not looking for a new Religion, I used to laugh at people that went to church, and some times said that there was no God.

Although deep down I knew there was. I decided to go to the library a couple of days later and check out the Quran. I began to read it and study it, I learned About Prophet Muhammed (Peace be upon him) and the true story of Jesus son of Mary(Peace be upon him).
