Hello my dear friends
I am @storytan from #pakistan

Hello Steemit friends, how are you all?I hope you are all doing well. By the grace of Allah, I am also doing well. Today, I am here with my very first post on the Steemit platform. Through this post, I want to introduce myself to you. I hope I can become familiar with you all. So, let’s get started.

About Myself

My name is Rizwan, and I am an Islamic story writer. From a young age, I felt a deep connection to the Islamic faith. When the Imam of our village mosque would narrate the lives of the Prophets in the form of stories, I realized those tales carried profound lessons, capable of illuminating the hearts of listeners. That very inspiration encouraged me to pursue Islamic literature.

Birthplace & Family

I was born in Lahore, Pakistan, into a middle-class family. Our family has always been strongly devoted to Islamic values. My father is a retired teacher, and my mother was a homemaker—both of them raised us with firm Islamic principles. Since childhood, reciting the Qur’an, reading and writing in Arabic, and studying Hadith became part of my daily life.

Education life

My educational journey began at the local maktab (Islamic elementary school). Later, I enrolled in a madrasa and eventually completed higher education in Islamic Studies from an Alia Madrasa. Alongside, my love for the English language drew me towards writing. Gradually, I started composing stories that focus on Islamic values, ethics, and the teachings of the Prophets—blending them with real-life societal contexts.

In my stories, I aim to beautifully integrate Islamic guidelines with real social scenarios. I believe stories are not just a source of entertainment—they can also serve as a path to guidance (hidayah).

My Hobbies

My hobbies include reading books, listening to Islamic lectures, exploring rural environments, and volunteering to raise children and teenagers with Islamic values. A significant portion of my readership consists of young people, to whom I try to spread the light of Islam through my writings.

The goal of my life is simple—if even one person is guided to the right path through my writing, and becomes inspired by Islamic teachings, that will be my greatest achievement.

HOW I KNEW ABOUT STEEMIT

While searching for a platform to publish my writings, I came across a site called Steemit. To understand it better, I searched on Google and found a lot of useful information about it. Then I discovered the Newcomers' Community and its various rules regarding Steem. That’s how my journey here began.

I hope I will be able to work sincerely and contribute meaningfully in the coming days.
