I know more than some muslims bout islam
That's great, I'll wager you know more than me even! Even through I've mindlessly pronounced the Arabic words twice over in the Quran, I haven't even translated even one surah in English. Actually that's a lie I tried a little when I was 10 and most of it was "O yee this or that" so I gave up on it.
Most of my knowledge of Islam comes through my experiences of it (tacit) and I guess general reading of interesting points others have picked up on. I feel I know enough to know what's in there and how it behaves, but I have to say, for Western people to go out of there way to know so much about Islam proves several things to me: courage, open mindedness, critical thinking, curiosity and tenacity in them. So yes, you are definitely a Hermione!
