Well, you're in Queens: perhaps a man you know can help you? Do you have a Middle Eastern grocery where you're a recognized customer? A friendly acquaintance who knows the language? The gumption to reach out to a teacher or professor or someone at a local mosque?
There's also, for a more frictionless interaction, this forum.
Thanks, Professor. I like those ideas, especially because it would give me an opportunity to interact with the local Muslim community, unfortunately, I just don't have that much time because I'm caught in the rat race. Thanks again for the link!
