Knowledge is the key to move forward on any aspect of your life. I mean unless its knowledge of the wrong kind theres nothing bad that can possibly come of learning new things ecpecialy about things your forefathers practiced (if born in a muslim family). Or experiencing the reasons as to why islam is the fastest growing most outstanding and most talked about religion in the world to day.

Muslims pray to the same God that Jesus prayed to: The God Who created the heavens and the earth.

Arab Christians call God ALLAH and so do Muslims. A similar name for God in Hebrew is ELOH. This name appears in the Bible.

“instead they should teach the real logic behind Islam and explain and educate people in the correct way to behave.”

It is impossible to teach what you yourself do not have. What needs to happen is, more Muslims need to be interested in learning of their religion. Everyone can’t be a scholar this is true, however, everyone should have a certain level of knowledge or at least the desire to increase their knowledge of the religion. And without citing overused hadith, I will simply say this we should all want to learn more about our religion, no matter what religion we are.

I know that women muslim must cover their whole body, but can they wear prufume or make up or do they have to take that off. And do men only have to cover up to their knees?

Can I pray in English or in Polish language?

Salaam… that is a great question. The first thing that you should know is the difference between the obligatory prayer (Salah) and the supplication prayer (Dua’a).

Salah is obligatory in Islam, it is one of the five pillars of faith and must be done exactly as the Prophet of Islam (peace be upon him) has prescribed. So that means it must be recited in Arabic.

However, a supplication or Dua’a made thereafter can be in any language you like. There is a great reason for this that is beyond the scope of this reply.

Howevever, please note that the Salah is not a prayer in the typical sense of the word. Further study of the Qur’an and the Salah will help you to understand this. Here are some links that may help you on your path, inshaAllah (if Allah permits).
