Profile Information

Please choose: I am a(n):
Muslim
Location (State or Country):
USA
About Me:
I am a muslim convert of less than a year, and I could not be happier, alhamdulilah. Islam has changed my life for the better and I have found peace with myself in converting. Inshallah, I aspire to become a writer and professor (teaching psychology and/or anthropology). My passions in life (besides Allah swt :) ) are in writing and learning; I love to learn anything and everything I can- it keeps hands busy and minds sharp.
Though not yet old enough to be wed on my own, inshallah I will marry young and have good children.
My birth name is Ciara, but I choose Izdihar as my muslim name, as it means "blossoming", and I am also blossoming, into a life of peace and piety insha'allah. I am of mainly Dutch and Norwegian descent, also Scottish and German. My last name, Vanden Boogard, means "of the orchard" in Dutch.

My Army Brats

The last picture is of my brother, Josh- Allah bless his heart- he graduated high school last year, and is now in Texas. He joined the National Guard two years ago, and will be going to Iraq for the next year. He is an utter spaz- and a loyal videogamer. Once I am able to put a photo of him in his military uniform on the internet, I will change this picture- but for now, this one is just as good!
I also will try to get a photo of my cousin, Adam, who has been in the Navy several years now, and has been overseas. Alhamdulilah he is safe and back in the states for now.
I bought a used army jacket from a local thrift shop around where I live in honor of them, and I wear it each day, despite the fact that it is many sizes too big for me.
I pray each day that they will remain safe and well, insha'allah.
The first picture is of my cousin, Anthony- Allah bless his heart also. He is a senior in high school- and so sweet to me, alhamdulilah! He walks me a third of the way home most days. Allah bless him- for all he has had to put up with in his life- and for all the times he puts up with me!

Assalamu Alaiykum brohters and sisters- how I've missed you all!

AssalamuAlaiykum- I know that it has been awhile since I have gone on this site and talked with you all and given blog posts- I hope that I won't disappear from alifm. again insha'allah. I apologize for not coming here for awhile now- especially If I worried anyone. I am well and so is my family- we've just had a bit of a detour. My brother, Josh, will be going to Iraq to be a maximum security prison guard, and will be gone for about a year- the past months have been a bit hectic. Alhamdulilah o… Continue

Prospects for marriage- online?

Asalamu alaiykum dear brothers and sisters- What are your veiws on meeting persons of the opposite gender over the internet, and considering them as prospects for marriage?
Recently, a muslim friend of mine met a man over the internet on a simple blog site- and within one conversation that night, they agreed to be prospects for marriage. By prospect, meaning a possiblity- they agreed to have a G-rated friendship with marriage as a possible ultimatum- but not a required one.
I was initially worri… Continue

Oh, the sleepless nights.

Oh, the sleepless nights
when minds do wander so
without a cause or reason
to somewhere only allah knows

When coffee helps keep you awake
though without it you would still be
to just hold the cup in my hand
feels nice and warm to me

The tapping of pen so redundant
lulling, if not in a way
to keep me dazed and quiet
while I sit at the table and sway

Two o' clock in the morning,
three if not the least
ten pages and a half half I written
yet I feel no need to cease

My mother is sleeping, brothe… Continue

He's Coming Home!

Alhamdulilah Alhamdulilah alhamdulilah! I will run up and down the streets of our village and scream it loudly- Alhamdulilah!
My brother is coming home in two days- we're driving three hours to an airport to pick him up- and for two weeks, he's not leaving our (more so my) sight! I've got everything stacked up in the fridge- curry paste, tortillas for our variation of sopapilla, and chicken ready to be cooked! And my brother's not going to escape me- especially not since he promised via letter t… Continue

Waiting for The Snow


Looking up at the clouds, the dark and rolling skies
I cannot help but plead
and close my tired eyes.

I pray for the snow,
to come soon and to come fast
I ask Allah to let it fall,
for my patience may not last.

He calls once a week,
but only when he can
I jump at the phone rings,
perha… Continue
