    Why you are a muslim?

    Report bad ads?



    We always asked this question to the reverts but I think everyone should try to answer this question themselves.

    For me...

    I'm a muslim,

    Because i love the salah, it felt so good after doing it.

    Because i love not drinking alcohol.

    Because i love wearing clothes in modesty.

    Because i love having a close relationship with my family.

    Because i love eating moderately.

    Because most of the good stuffs that is good already become a habit and a part of me.

    Because i love fasting.

    Because i love tawakalla'allah and not to worry so much.

    Because i love the idea that this world is a test then i'll try my best to improve myself (kinda like taking part in exams)

    Because i love the idea on having good intention in every tiny tasks i do.

    Because i love reading Al-quran.

    Because i love the idea of being careful in whatever we do, as the dunya is full of activities that will spoilt us in many kind of ways.

    Because i love the idea that even there a mishap happen to us, it is a test and if we sabr, Allah subhanahuwata'la will reward us more.

    Because islam has shown me that Allah subhanahuwata'ala is so merciful but we usually taken for granted for everything that we have.

    wassallam

    Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
    Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar

    Re: Why you are a muslim?

    I believe the Qur'an is the only surviving written message of God(swt)

    It has taught me a life style that gives purpose to my life

    It has brought me closer to people who not only profess love of God(swt) but live and share it.

    Re: Why you are a muslim?

    I am a Muslim becuase my parents were Muslims.

    My parents were Muslims because my forefathers accepted Islam many centuries ago when soofis came to the sub continent.

    My forefathers accepted Islam because the Soofis painted a very lovely picture of Islam.

    Now the religious scholars and terrorists are showing the real face of Islam.

    The false lovely image of Islam is broken, but there's no way anyone could out of this.
    Why you are a muslim?

    Faith, to my mind, is a stiffening process, a sort of mental starch.

    Re: Why you are a muslim?

    In The Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful


    Why am I Muslim?

    B/c the other man made religions doesn’t make sense. They are crooked and incomplete while Islam is the exact opposite of their deviations since it was perfected by our Creator.

    Re: Why you are a muslim?

    I am a Muslim, because I believe in God and life after death with Paradise for some and Hellfire for others. I grew up as a Christian with these same beliefs, but after reading the Quranic verses about Jesus and Mary and other people I knew from the Bible (pbut), I came to believe that the Quran was a true revelation and that Islam was the true religion.

    Regretably, I went from 21 years old until 40 years old only practicing Islam occassionally. Then in June 2001, I decided to practice my faith regardless of the worldly consequences and regardless of what other people thought. I remember thinking that one day I must stand before my Creator and give an account for my life. I knew that I could not use the excuse that some misguided Muslims were killing innocent people as the reason that I personally did not worship God as He had intended. Masha'Allah, I have been consistent, though not perfect, in my practice of Islam since then.

    I pray that Allah not let me or my wife die, but as a Muslim. She and I are the only Muslims in our entire families, but Alhamdulillah for it all. To be guided to the Truth is an indescribable blessing.

    Yes of course, although I apologise if this is off-subject.

    It's very simple. I see no reason for believing in a God, but, on the other hand, I have no means of disproving that God.
