A few questions...

[ianna_kur]

Hello,
I am so happy to see this DU group :-) My husband and I began reading the Qur'An together about a year ago, and decided to observe Ramadan this year. It was a life changing month for both of us. Due to growing up in the United States, neither he nor I had much exposure to Islam prior to our decision to learn more about the religion. I have a few questions, and I am hoping that someone here is able to answer them :-)

1. I would like to begin praying daily, but I don't know how, and I also do not speak Arabic. Are there any sites where I can learn the proper forms? Do the prayers need to be in Arabic?

2. Both my husband and I would like to attend Mosque. Even though we have not converted, would we be welcome? How do I go about this? What are the customs to follow?

3. We both would like to learn Arabic so as to be able to read the Qur'An in its non-translated form. Any tips?

Thank you in advance.
