As Salam Alleikum!

Thank you all for the translations...I am new here, I am Cindi, a Muslim who converted just about ten months ago. I am so happy to have found this site...my boyfriend helps me out so much...but sometimes it is easier at times to talk to women on some things...that way I dont wear out his patience!
  I am like some of the other english speaking converts here...my boyfriend wants me to learn the prayers in arabic...and ohhhhhhh..it is sooo hard!  I almost have the first one memorized....but speaking another language is very very very hard for me.
  I have found that writing the words phonetically helps me...and i have to look at them frequently...or I tend to forget them....I find learning another language very stressful....but I know it must be done. I tease that by the time I die I will have learned all the required ones....   it seems to take so long.
  I too have taken to pasting words around the house...it helps me out that way. I know Allah will reward me for this....and I keep this in mind as I try to learn. I just wish I was better at the arabic language than I am.....    It is wonderful to meet you all...I have been reading alot of the posts here..very enjoyable!!!   Hello to you all again!!

As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullah

this is probably a dumb question but since I'm not a native Arabic speaker, what does "Allahu musta'aan" mean?

jazakallahu khair,
Zahra

Wa Alikum asallam warahmatu Allah

"Allahu musta'aan" - we seek the help of Allah.

I found a cool site about learning Arabic in general:

http://i-cias.com/babel/arabic/index.htm

I'm trying to follow along but the Arabic alphabet is really hard for me! I want to learn because of this Muslim guy I like, but I'm too afraid to ask him for help cuz I think he'll think I'm stupid for trying to learn .. I dunno, I'm being silly. lol I like learning stuff like this. I know Spanish and would LOVE to learn more languages.

Anyways the site lets you hear how some of the phrases are said as well. I struggle with pronunciation in this language. I can't even say "no" the right.
