A TRUE STORY OF HOW A PUNK ACCEPTS ISLAM Let's start at the beginning (always a good place AlhamduliLlaah). Life began for me in a place called Chatham in Kent in England way back in 1383H/1963CE. I am a girl an only child. My parents and their parents and their parents etc. were all English along with myself so as you can see I am not from an Islamic background. Anyway, when I was only a little tot of barely 4 years my parents packed up and whooshed us all across the Atlantic to North America. My parents loved it over there but I grew up to hate it. I never got on there no matter how hard I tried. With my limited knowledge I felt English at heart (may Allaah protect me from feelings of nationalism and other such nonsense) and my mission in life was to return to the UK. I had a long wait in front of me. All my life in spite of the usual selfish non-islamic lifestyle I led my love towards my Creator was always in the background Masha Allaah. But due to my pride and insecu

Canadian Solo biker Rosie Gabrielle reverts to Islam and in youtube, she shares her video of the ceremony.in the description box of the video she wrote- Hello Friends ! If you havn't been following me on Instagram or Facebook- or happened to watch the news lately :S This might come as a bit of a shock for you. Spirituality is between you and GOD- so why am I sharing this ?! This is my Shahada, where one testifies that they believe in One true God, and that Prophet Muhammad PBUH- is a messenger of God. This can be done in public, with people, or even whispered quietly to yourself on your own. It is with the intention in your heart that you know what you are saying and that you wholeheartedly want to follow this path. I feel its so important to share the truth that is Islam, which is peace, love and oneness. It is one of the most critized, osterzied, and misunderstood religions worldwide from both non Muslims AND Muslims !!! As in any religion, there are many interpretat

RUNNING WILD, FINDING ISLAM I wonder where to start this story. I became a Muslim officially on January 1, 2006, in Damascus Syria. But I made Shahadah in 2003 when I stood in a sunlit meadow and told God my hopes and dreams. The truth is I always feel like a "new" Muslim because there are so many things that I don't know. I stand with one foot in the Muslim world and one in the non-Muslim world. This is very painful very harsh. As a basically self-taught Muslim, I have wandered the Internet and the bookstores in search of true Islam. I have had only a little direction although I have received a lot of misdirection. It has been a struggle to get the facts right and weed out people's cultural beliefs. I made a point early on to learn Qur'an and Sunnah and leave everything else aside. I have struggled a lot to get where I am and it has been both a joy and a heartache. My faith has only grown through this entire experience although a few times I met up with r

AMINA- A STORY OF POLISH REVERT Salam everyone I want to share you the story of my friend Amina who is Polish and lives in Poland who embraced Islam after hearing the adhan (azan) in Poland (I didn't even know u would hear somewhere azan in Poland in public). English is her second language btw. It is very inspirational makes you realise just how the call to prayers of Adhan in a non-Muslim country can be a path to open the doors of Islam to people and here is her story. I am awed of her family acceptance. I am aware that there are many stories of people who come to Islam but it is pretty rare to read one from a person in Poland ;) but Alhamdulillah Amina informed that after telling two girls about Islam in Poland they both embraced Islam as well. May Allah guide us to give good Dawah Ameen. My Muslim name is Amina and as it suggests I 'converted' to Islam. Many people ask me how did it happen that a person from Europe and especially a country like Poland with a strong

  AISHA(POLISH)-HOW I CAME TO ISLAM  I was born in Australia of Polish Background. I was brought up as a Roman Catholic and used to attend church almost every Sunday. I have always been a believer and remember strongly believing and engaging in prayers as young as five years of age. By the time I was ten I didn't fit in at school. My mind was always somewhere else searching and pondering. I used to think I don't need these people as my friends anyway because I have God and Jesus. Teachers would always say on my school reports that I was withdrawn. My games often consisted of my playing priest and giving religious sermons to my toys. By the time I was thirteen I was planning for the coming of the Anti-Christ and came up with all these plans on how not to follow him when he'd be pretending to be God. At this point after a lot of reflection, I also decided to no longer pray to Jesus and pray solely to God. During my teenage years, I used to spend hours wondering about

THE INNER DIMENSIONS OF MUSLIM PRAYER from Imam Ghazali's Ihya Ulum al-Din States at Each Stage of the Ritual Prayer The Call to Prayer When you hear the call to prayer given by the Muezzin let yourself perceive the terror of the Summons on the Day of Resurrection. Prepare yourself inwardly and outwardly to respond and to do so promptly. Those who are prompt in answering this call are the ones who will be summoned gently on the Day of the Great Review. So review your hearts now; if you find it full of joy and happiness eager to respond with alacrity you can expect the Summons to bring you good news and salvation on the Day of Judgment. That is why the Prophet used to say: Comfort us, Bilal! Bilal was the Muezzin and prayer was the joy and comfort of the Messenger. Ritual Purity When attending to ritual purity in the things that envelop you do so progressively; your room then your clothes then your skin do not neglect your inner being which lies at the heart of all t

A STORY OF A VIETNAMESE REVERT I testify that there is no God but Allah, I testify that Muhammad is the Prophet of Allah. That is the Shahadah I had pronounced from the bottom of my heart in front of a crowed audience at a mosque in the Kingdom of Belgium on the 19th of May 2000 when I just reached the age of 26. I was born and grew up in Hanoi Vietnam. Thanks to the blessings of Allah I was allowed to come to Belgium in 1998 to study for the Master of Science degree in Physical Land Resources. When I was in Vietnam I had a very vague concept of the Creator and often felt very embarrassed to ask myself "where do men and the universe come from?" At that time The Lord or God Adam and Eve for me were simply the characters in children's tales. I have also been told about Allah Muhammad Qur'an and Muslims but I had never thought that these terms are so closely related to each other. Among my classmates in Belgium, some adopted Christianity while some follow the religi

ISLAM and the so-called NATION OF ISLAM are not the same. ISLAM  and the so-called NATION OF ISLAM, are two different religions. The only thing common between them is the jargon, the language used by both. The Nation of Islam is a misnomer; this religion should be called Farrakhanism, after the name of its propagator. The religion of Elijah Muhammad and W.D. Fard died with their death because their officially and popularly elected successor, W.D. Muhammad, integrated the community with the Muslim community-at-large, following the Quran and Hadith of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. Louis Farrakhan joined W.D. Muhammad and gave his pledge of allegiance to him after Elijah Muhammad's death; he later rebelled and broke his oath with impunity, or without paying any expiation, and restarted The Nation of Islam. Examine the following comparisons between Islam and Farrakhanism with regard to the belief or practice in each: 1. GOD/ALLAH ALONE ISLAM: One. Unique. Never ap
