Hi,

I've been living in Qatar for a few months now and have met some great people - friends for life for sure!I don't drink or go to bars/clubs so when my friends are out drinking would be great to meet up with people who don't drink etc! I'm interested in attending some Islamic cirlcles and if anyone knows of any good education centres for Arabic please let me know. I attended the fanar and wasn't impressed! Would be great to meet some like minded Muslims with similar interests.

Thanks.

Assalamu alikom Dear.

There's a group on FB called "Sisters in Qatar" Where we organize events for the sake of giving Muslim (women) expats a chance to widen up their social circle and get to know more sisters. You will meet sisters who grew up in Europe and other parts of the world in shaa Allah. I myself grew up in Europe too and I came to live in Qatar almost 2 years ago.

If any of you would like to get in contact, we can exchange e-mailadresses and meet up, insha'Allah!

Thank you! Will check these out :-)

Would also be interested in finding out about some general muslim socials too! I stayed here for Eid and was very disappointed to see that nothing happens here and there was no one to celebrate Eid with - although my non muslim friends are amazing and celebrated with me, It would have been nice to meet other people who were celebrating Eid too. Would be great to organise something next year if there are enough people involved. I've checked out the muslim expat group but not much happening there!

Sister.If you are really interested in ISLAM for knowing well its values. You should know the Biography of Our Prophet and read Translation of QuranYour asking the circle then i would prefer fanar bcz thats only the option.But in alone you can research more about ISLAM.i have done my own research at one point I came to know that I am Legally Muslim(Only in Passport) but not real muslim

I am 26 years old Muslim. But only 3 years before I came to know what is exact meaning of ISLAM.Please follow see the below links

Biography of prophet:

History Of ISLAM :Empire of Faith

I am not telling these documentaries are original resources but not less then very informative a person who are living in 21st century.

And I advice to see A very beautiful series by MBC (Qatar TV channel) named as : 'Omar' with English subtitles it was amazing very informative.
