Question
Answer
Gaining knowledge and the remembrance of Allah: It is obligatory on every male and female to acquire the basic knowledge of Deen. One should know what is Halaal and what is Haraam, and must be able to distinguish between right and wrong.
The angels spread their wings under the feet of a person seeking the knowledge of Deen. The animals in the jungle, the birds in the air and the fish in the sea make Du'a of forgiveness for him.

In the meantime, read authentic basic books which are meant for Muslims and practice upon them. These books can be bought from an Islamic bookstore. It is very important to read books written by good scholars. Please consult a scholar in your town if you have any doubts about the book, the author, or what is written in it.
Secondly, be practical on whatever you have learnt. Practicing on whatever you know, will be the perfect invitation to your family members, who will watch you closely.
And last but not least, make Dua to Allah. He is our creator, He gives us blessings and He gives us tests, only He has the power to make our lives better. Ask Him for every need that you have, and make this your habit in times of happiness or sorrow. After all, He is All-hearing, All-seeing.
Make Dua, do your faraidh and sunnahs, avoid committing any sins and recite "Rabbi zidni ilma" and "Rabbish-Rahli Sadri li Wa Yassirli Amri wah lul Uqdatam-Mil-lisaani yafqahu qauli" as often as you can.
May Allah Grant you beneficial knowledge, steadfastness in deen and happiness in life.
May Allah Grant you the ability to convey the message of peace, the sacred and enlightened values of Islam, its rituals and teachings for success in this life and the Hereafter, for the benefit of mankind. Aameen.
And Allah knows best.
