Assalamu Alaikum, y'all!

My name is Othman and I am totally new to the Madinah boards.  However, due to a constant nagging from my wife (Jenna) asking me to join, I finally decided to do it; although I won't deny that over the past few days I have been rather anxious to join;  you see, she has been BOASTING about the number of messages she has posted, and last night I had enough! LOL  so I told her I'd probably match and double the number of messages she has posted in no time, and she went as far as daring me to do so... can you believe that? DARING ME!  Well, I am not one to pass a good dare when one comes my way, so I'm taking it.  From here on, we shall see who is the 'smartest' in our family.  Isn't that how you put it, Jenna? Of all the nerve!

;-)

Well, now, what can I tell you about me?  I am a hispanic Muslim (or Muslim hispanic, however you like it), 27 years old. Or is it 28?  Oh well.  Guess that proves who's the smartest one already, huh?  Yeah right.  
Anyways, I am 27 y/o, currently residing in the United Snakes of America, hoping to move to a Muslim land soon, inshaAllah!  May Allah make it possible in the best of ways, ameen.
I have been a muslim for nearly 7 years, alhamdulillah, and I am constantly working on my deen, inshaAllah striving to please Allah (SWT).  Any help from you all in this matter will be greeatly appreciated! ;-)

I am married to a wonderlful loving sweetest wife and have a beautiful, loving, grubby, big-mouthed son.  They have made my life hapier than it had ever been, and I honestly don't know how I got along without them.  My wife has helped me grow in so many ways (yes, besides my belly) and I am ever grateful to Allah (SWT) for blessing me with this wonderful family.

I am currently taking an Arabic class (second semester, alhamdulillah), and my Arabic alhamdulillah is improving.  ;-)

Well, I've sort of given you an overview 'bout meself.  Hope y'all like me and we can get to be good e-friends!

Assalamu Alaikum!

Othman

ps. Jenna, watch out!

Looks like our brother Arshad already gave you a Spanish Update, mashaAllah!  Not bad, though, if you haven't been practicing it.
btw. "Im from..." = "Soy de..." ;-)

Jazzakallahkhair to you all for your welcome!

Hmmm..I've only been a member for 2 days and I can already see that the women are buddying up and sticking together like gum.

Fine!  Be that way.  

We brothers will do just the same...

Won't we, brothers?

uhhhh...Brothers?  
Brothers?  
Oh, Brothers!?

Thank you all for your welcome! ;-)

Welcome to the board Br. Othman. Nice to have you here. Insha'Allah we'll get to read a lot of your posts here.

[color=red]Reminder[/color]: Br. Othman only has 4 posts so far, so it'll be quite a while before he catches up to Jenna ;););)

Welcome to the board Br. Othman.  

We used to have a couple here that was engaged to each other!  That was interesting ;)

And now to have a married couple :)  This should be [i]really[/i] interesting :)

Don't bother about competing in the number of posts bro.  We brothers look at the more significant matters.  Quality is the more important thing here.  Quantity doesn't mean much to the intellectual minded!

Got that sisters?  Good!

Peace!
Can I get an A-MEN?

Preach it brother, preach it. ;)

Besides, the sister's numbers on here have grown by leaps and bounds, and they network, and are in their own cliques, so they got a lot to talk about.

While on the other hand, the brotherhood has gone down, their isn't the unity or bonding we had before.  Maybe this calls for a revival movement?  The re-emergence of M.O.M. ? ???

Walaikum assalam.  Ha ha ha ha! Muy cierto Hermano!  Gracias por tu bienvenida!  Sabes qué? My wife is begging me to translate what you said, and I told her: "No way!  We men stick together too! (evil laugh).  Of course I know it's only a matter of time before a sister (or a trator brother) translates it for her, but I'll enjoy the fun while I can ;-)

Assalamu Alaikum all!

Pleased to meet you, Othman. Welcome to the Garden.    I am happy to know that you have been a Muslim for 7 years.  I've been a Muslim for 4 years, and I am also learning Arabic.  Don't worry about the sisters, they spend their time talking about hair-do's and nail polish and things like that
