as salamu laikum! i have reverted to islam a week ago today! ALHAMDUILLAH! Well to begin I was raised as a southern Baptist. My entire family on both my father's and mother's side are christian. I began reading the bible from the moment I was able to read. Well I didn't start questioning my faith untill an older Jehovas Witness couple moved next door to us. They would tell us all these things about Jesus, and how he wasn't GOD.... Well thats not what the bible says, I thought. From then on I've always had that stuck in my mind. Fast foward to 2001, the September 11, attacks. I was perplexed as to how some one could be so inclined to commit such an appauling act. I wanted to know more about these culprits and this religion Islam. Well the more I read about Islam the more appealling it became to me. I found my self reading book after book after book. I figured that I would go out and purchase a Qur'an. The first sura struck me like a bolt of lightning! The way the ayats were worded was so eloquent. I was seriously questioning my faith. I didn't convert at the time. I was at a standstill. I continued to live as I had, untill very recently. I was coming to a crucial point in my life where everything was falling apart. Nothing was going right, nothing. I knew that nothing was possible without GOD. I had knowone to turn to or nowhere to go. So I made a conscience decision to make Shahadda. I made Shahadda and gave my life to ALLAHS will. That is the absolutely best decision I have ever made. I finally feel at peace and have no doubts as to my faith. I believe that Islam is the eternal truth from ALLAH. ALHAMDUILLAH! Thats my testimony! SALAM |

Allahu akbar! Allahu akbar! Allahu akbar! Welcome to Islam. I too was raised a Southern Baptist and converted over 26 years ago, but only practiced consistently since 7/01. May Allah (swt) make your Islamic journey to the Hereafter easy and productive. |

As Salaam Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu
__________________Allah Akbar! Allah Akbar! Masha'Allah! Congrats on your conversion!! Upon entering the fold of Islam purely for the Pleasure of Allah, all of one’s previous sins are forgiven, and one starts a new life of piety and righteousness. The Prophet said to a person who had placed the condition upon the Prophet in accepting Islam that Allah would forgive his sins: “Do you not know that accepting Islam destroys all sins which come before it?” (Saheeh Muslim) When one accepts Islam, they in essence repent from the ways and beliefs of their previous life. One need not be overburdened by sins committed before their acceptance. The person’s record is clean, and it is as if he was just born from his mother’s womb. One should try as much as possible to keep his records clean and strive to do as many good deeds as possible. The Holy Quran and Hadeeth (prophetic sayings) both stress the importance of following Islam. Allah states: “...The only religion in the sight of Allah is Islam...” (Quran 3:19) Allah Hafiz Sister Fatima In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. Say: He is Allah, the One. Allah-us-Samad (The Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creation need, He neither eats nor drinks.) He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him.  |
