Before studying more complex things, first master the basics of religion. Study the Qur'an, hadith, fikih, tauhid, and other religious sciences from a legitimate source.
In addition, learning the knowledge of nahwu and shorof (orbit Arabic) is also important to understand religion properly.
Do not interpret verses of the Qur'an or hadith itself without a strong scientific basis, because wrong interpretations can be misleading and dangerous. So always refer to explanations from competent scholars.
Be careful with people who suddenly become popular on the internet and claim to be religious experts. Check their educational background and track record, and don't be easily tempted by provocative or controversial lectures.
