My name’s Matthew Drake (Matt for short). I’m from Wokingham, Berkshire in England and I embraced Islam in 2005 when I was 19 years old. When I look back to when I first became muslim nearly two decades ago, I realize that I made a lot of mistakes along the way. And more often than not, these incidents were a direct result of a lack of Islamic knowledge or a lack of knowing how to apply Islam correctly in my life, either because of my own ignorance of the religion or because of the bad advice I received from other muslims who, despite the good intentions they may have had, were ill-informed themselves or had a lack of understanding. This, in addition to the excessive zeal I had as a new muslim, as well as immaturity and a lack of life experience, all contributed to me going to extremes in aspects of the religion, obligating or prohibiting things in my life that I didn’t have to, getting into arguments and debates with other people, ruining friendship
