Choosing Islam - Converts Tell Their Stories 1/3

[chinahusker07]

I remember when I converted to Islam. My former Christian youth pastor told me that I converted for a girl, because I liked Arab culture and because I was brainwashed. My father said I was brainwashed by my Muslim friends. Converting is extremely difficult when you have Christian parents, BUT alhamdullilah it is worth every bit of effort!!!

[mustafazakri]

Mashaallah it makes me cry telling me the truth

[raufidah]

These people are extraordinary & intellectual individual.Allah have guide them to the right path.Paradise are waiting for them & will be blessed forever.So dont wait to explore the truth in Islam before deadth come to you,put you ego aside,just for the sake of knowledge or to find if there is any mistake or error in Islam.Allah can never make a single mistake as you can in the Bible(where many text had been tampered with by the priests & the anti Christ Rabbi)Allah is ALMIGHTY & SUPREME.

[rusty57111]

Alhamdulillah tonight i returned to islam after almost a year. i was a convert from christianity but i left islam early on because of the many difficulties that you face as a convert. but i could never forget islam completely and i have now realised that Allah meant for me to be muslim and that islam is part of who I am :-) Praise be to Allah!!!

[BDOST]

Brother Yousuf Islam, you are 100% right. May ALMIGHTY ALLAH SWT bless you, Aameen.

[SoulofRaProductions]

It's strange that people continue to call people there native names instead of the vanacular language. Such as Yshua or Allah (excuse my misspellings). I'm not looking to change religions I just hate when people say "Hate Islamics they're evil!" I will make my own ideas about people and I would like to also take the time to make a reletive correct quote from Voltaire: I may not agree with what you say; but I will protect your right to say it to the death!

[abmsu86]

i bear witness that there is no god but The God and that Mohamed is his slave and messenger

God says in the holy quran : ( Such is the guidance of Allah: He guides therewith whom He pleases, but such as Allah leaves to stray, can have none to guide ) Az-Zumar " 23 " , and says : ( This is the Guidance of Allah: He giveth that guidance to whom He pleaseth of His worshippers. If they were to join other gods with Him, all that they did would be vain for them ) Al-Anam " 88 "

"Such was our argument,with which we supported Abraham against his people.We exalt whomever we will to higher ranks.Your Lord is Most Wise, Omniscient. And we granted him Isaac and Jacob,and we guided both of them.Similarly,we guided Noah before that, and from his descendants David, Solomon,Job,Joseph,Moses,and Aaron.We thus reward the righteous.Also,Zachariah,John, Jesus,and Elias;all were righteous.And Ismail,Elisha,Jonah,and Lot;each of these we distinguished over all the people"Quran(6:83-86

[elfidanto]

marketing God and religion is utter stupidity and one religion is best at this

[wowitsgreen]

Christianity is the only religion that forces u to change ur religion.

[manoftruth888]

People r choosing death by choosing Islam. Just thirsty for virgins in heaven? or for right-hand possessions on earth? or for blood of infidels? or for satisfying sexual obsession with children? What they r attracted in Muhammad. He brought only desctruction and retardedness. Which news things Muhammad brought that were not in Judaism and Christianity??? Answers needed!

[yusuf916]

every prophet of God repeated the same message to the people of the nation which is to worship one God and perscribe no partners on to Him. From Noah the first messenger to Mohammad the last messenger, the message has been the same and that is to worship one God only.

[manoftruth888]

Dear yusuf916, that's not really right. The prophets of Judaism didn't claim that the Bible is changed, no one of them did claim that till the coming of Muhammad that canceled Christianity and Judaism. What he brought other than violence and sexual obsession? Nothing.

[yusuf916]

your "opinion" is nor better than my "opinion" without any proof. Noah brought the message of worshiping one God did he not? Abraham brought the message of worshiping one God did he not? Moses brought the message of worshiping one God to the people of pharoah who were worshiping him, and finally Mohammad brought the message of worshiping one God to the arab people who were worshiping stone statues and false idols. Where is your proof that he brought violence and sexual obsession?

[yusuf916]

All the prophets revived the same message from the time of Noah the first messenger to Mohammad the last messenger.

[manoftruth888]

Good answer, so why muhammad changed the religion of people from Christianity and Judaism to Islam? Why he denied these religions? The prophets of Israel didn't deny Judaism. Jesus didn't deny Judaism. Followers of Jesus were called first "Christians" out of the Holy Land. Jesus completed Judaism but did not deny it like muhammad. He didn't deny the Torah like muhammad. So why muhammad deny Torah and Jesus didn't? One of them must be right, but not both.

[raymihimura]

i know one thing...to you your religion... to me mine... i can say you are wrong...and you say i am wrong... lets just wait and see...only till our last breath will we know the truth... prophet muhammad s.a.w.. never forced any christians or jews in his time to worship Allah... they have free will... for muslim brothers... lets hope that we will stay a muslim til our last breath... amin....

[farsi26]

@manoftruth888 have u ever read about history wt exactly happened when MUHAMMAD (peace be upon him) came? wht he brought ?y u make judgement widout knowing anything ? he brought Quran from GOD... have u ever read QURAN wid translation? did u ever seek truth in it? or ur intention was only to pick up bad things which u will never find not even a single one..... He brought guidance and peace these people r not crazy who r entering in islam.. seek for the truth u will also get guidance

[juslkn]

There are so many irrefutable evidences, proofs, logic in Islam, that if one truly seeks truth with open mind, the Truth of Islam cannot be denied. We realize God is not anyone's imagination but very real. Christianity produced its doctrine based on not what Jesus (AS) said. Right of the bat we know idea of God in the flesh - walking, talking, eating, urinating, defecating cannot be true. The idea is very pagan.

[mickeymoose76]

Choose Islam, Choose Evil...

[fusionfuze]

abidib,,,, how is your God is weak he can't forgive my sins unless if he Sacrifices another man for me( Jesus), Well gues What ALLAH forgives my sins because he can he don't need to shed anyone's blood to forgive me. PLEASE MAN USE YOUR BRAIN BECAUSE I SWEAR TO YOU BY THE ONE CREATOR YOU WILL BE ASKED BIG TIME BROTHER BIG TIME SO USE IT WHEN YOU CAN.

[abidib]

how is it a religion of peace...it says to kill the infidels and theres not one place in the koran where is says to love your enemies...u guys have no relationship with allah, you guys just do the things you do because commands u. In islam the only way to guarantee eternal life in heaven is through killing yourself aka suicide bombers. in christianity Jesus already died for us so we dont have to...you guys should open your minds get the bible and the koran and compare them. Jesus loves u

[yusuf916]

the infidels in the quran are reffered to the Quraish people of arabia at the time of the prophet mohammad, when quraish was massacreing the muslims in arabia. Infidels are not reffered to as innocent civilains of a society. By no means does the quran say to attack non-muslims. Only people who attack you which are the disbelievers in God.

[Hannahworld7]

People forget all the negative things you heard about Islam in the media. Open your mind and read what the quran says and you will see that Islam is a merceful religion. Stop all the hate and ignorance and open your mind and heart.

[nash911]

Every convert is a "Fuck head mother fuckers".

[deathblow1993]

try and study islam..and maybe a bit of english

[yusuf916]

every convert justified why they chose the path of God. To worship one God only. The God of Abraham, the God of jesus, The God of Moses, The God of Noah, The God of all mankind and everything that exists. How are they "fuck head motherfuckers" ? Justify yourself.

[nash911]

Coz there is no "God". "God", thats the single biggest lie told by mankind. And no other religion than islam upholds and spreads that lie more. Not just that islam [or the preachers of it] does and promotes heinous things in the name of "God", but Its in us [Humans] to want to have someone [or something] to look up to and/or rely up on and/or die for. And its this week point that is being exploited by the smarter people around us, from ages.

[yusuf916]

You cant prove to me its a lie nor can i prove to you God exits, its just a belief. The process of how creatures come by evoultion we believe there is a author behind the creation. The process or how God creates or the mechanism call it whatever you want but there is a all knowing, incredibly inteligent creator behind every creation. Examples and proofs are any creation really. Just look at the human being, look how complex the human body is with nerve systems, muscle systems....

[nash911]

And this lie is so big that it has stood the test of time and cultures. Come on, if you were not told anything about god, since your birth, and were told the reason of our existence and the ever thing around us was because of nature and science, would you still be even talking about god? And the prophets, how sure are you they have ever seen, god that you believe in prophesy?

[yusuf916]

hormones, chemicals, cells in the body its extremely complicated, there has to be a inteligent creator behind the human body creation, The difference is you call creation with no creator or you call it mother nature evoulution process. Imagine a tornado that goes through a metal junk yard and makes a brand new mercedes benz with a running engine, what is the statistics of that ever happening? Computers, buildings, anythings have a creator so why not the human being when its the human being

[mrinternetusa]

well said

[nash911]

Well so its not just these converts who are "F#%& H!*^ M%@%*) F@%!&%*" but every theistic [irrespective of what religion he/she is from] who goes beyond his belief and tries to spread and force this "Lie" upon others. Like i said its a BIG FAT LIE. Open your eyes to the world around you and try to question what you see and try to reason when you are being told something. For a starter try reading "The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection" by Charles Darwin.

[yusuf916]

that is more complex than anything in this world. Truely we dont see the hidden God when He creates us but that doesnt mean He doesnt exist.

[raymihimura]

brother yusuff916, they will eventually believe....(insyaallah) if they do... its because they really want to find the truth... if they dont... lets leave them...

[23taurus23]

19:00, was very funny! lol..... I feel em'

[gdx30]

It doesn't matter what religion you choose,as long as you believe in God & do all the good you can,I'm all for it :)

ps..Islam has nothing to do with 911,Just remember that.I'm learning about all religions & Islam appeals to me more than the rest.

[23taurus23]

Hey, I'm in the same position. I'm studying all religions and Islam strikes me the most out of all of them.

[fireamracing]

i have a question what do muslims think about Jews, Christians, and the conflict with Isreal

[peacefulmuslim12]

we muslims shud consider jews and christians r our bro and sis.... since we beleive all creature created by God...

[settok33]

I think Jews and Christians are my fello brothers and sisters in humanity. By the way, Muslims don't believe that every Non-Muslim will go to hell. I just hope all innocent people will not be killed anymore around the world.

[fusionfuze]

Muslims think all the good of jews and christains. we have no problems no matter what, but politicains make all the problems. Remeber Arabs and Jews and christains lived together in one land with no problems til politicains came and brainwashed everyone.

[kp11]

Islam considers Jews and Christians as people of the Book, the Jews were given the Torah through the Prophet Musa (Moses) Alayhisalam (Peace be on him) We believe that Esa (Jesus) alayhisalam was also born or miraculas birth and is the Word of Allah (God). We believe that he was sent the Injeel but we believe that these messages were corrupted and changed from the revelation origionally sent to these respective Prophets alayhumasalam (Peace be upon them).

[novthx]

Islam, Muslim is the ONLY religion that believes in beheading and killing THOU SHALL NOT KILL especially in the name of GOD.

[fawz23]

What the hell? Plz don't try misconstruing words...

[roman20088]

ISlam is the Only TRUTH

[bugbuster08]

My significant question is one of great importance to mankind, that is... what is Islam? and what is Christianity to Islam?

[theplussixty]

Islam is the only religious that not been corrupted by any kind of human corrupt. muslim may corrupt but not islam, that is Allah promise. Christianity to Islam, Christian is also a word of Allah, or religious, but it been corrupt by people. people change the word of bible, so it no longer the truth and Quran never been corrupt and Quran is the only the Allah word that still not been change by people. Jesus is prophet like Muhammad, neither of them are son of God, they are human like us.

[abdalle1]

bugbuster, you propose a good question, how ever there are many answers my friend from many people with many diffrent views. it is your duty to search for the truth taking other peoples perspectives and filtering out what is wrong and what is right and not taking the media as a bible and just search for your own sake. Islam in my oppinion is of peace religion and i have many reasons why. but fully my best ansewer is that it shows the truth to those who are willing to search for it.

[bugbuster08]

Sorry for the slow post, I have not been on Youtube for a long time. I am in search of the answers, but only men speak. You know that many American's have died in the name of protecting freedom. So... freedom and answers to study and answers to the question of whether Islam or Christianity hold reason over one and other is fairly complex.

[bugbuster08]

Man is very complex and none of us know the entirety of inner workings of the wisdom of the most high... but as we conceive of the wisdom that we are given by men, there is much that we can learn and much that we can ask god.

[abdalle1]

i understand many people died of such abstract things but it all depends on your intentions my friend.

i my self have doubt some times but to i always find something amazing to reknew my faith. dont be fraustrated for the path to light always has darkness within it that you must overcome

[bugbuster08]

It is interesting as an American to try to understand Islam. In my own studies I have read the translated versions of the qua'ran. I wish to know the creator of the universe and to understand the reality of mankind, but what is it that I am suppose to learn over Christianity that would provide insight into participating in gods wisdom. Please post as those who are lovers of wisdom and who seek truth not as judges who have no harmony with the laws which guide creation.

[bodosiam]

just search for Ahmed Deedat videos in Youtube and you will find a great help for you my brother, May Allah guide you and me to the right path.

[abdalle1]

I my self is american and american raised, i take much intrest in philosophy.

in your question that you posted on this video i could not fully understand what you were trying to ask. please rephrase/./

[kikikikia]

God bless these people, this video touched my soul.

[salahAllah]

May God the creator of heavens and earth shower his peace and blessings upon those who seeks the truth and follow it Ameen.

[07aFG]

islam is peace..............FULL STOP

[shadowimpact]

richbee, the salvation according to the bible is to keep the commandment, merely having faith is not enough. christians have to translate the faith into good actions. God does not need blood of any innocent man

Islam is doomed.

Just make it easy for you!

[ahnazeer19]

If Jesus is considered Son of God because he was born without a father - what is Adam who was born without a father or mother well then can he be called the brother of God - God is One - He is needless - He was neither born nor gives birth to - there is nothing or none equal or comparable unto Him-Quran-112:1-4.

[arieyhanz]

Just say peace to all kind of faith.. Because God is peace and peace is (real) Islam..

[peaceforatoz]

islam a birthplace of terrorism and that's real islam, poor, confused, women supressor, scare of their own faith, common bond is terrorist, avarage life span if muslim is 56 years and non muslim is 76, you do the math and convert to some other non violent, peaceful religion andlive happy in THIS life, not in heavan with 17 virgins girls

[madkillaaa]

lol wtf??!?! ur kidding right?

first of all you probably dont know what islam is.. i bet u havent read 1 word from the quran so dont be going around giving ppl the view of what the media gives you about islam everyone hears that bullshit everyday and the media is not what we muslims listen to.. and unlike u westerners thats not what we worship. so think before u speak dumbass id rather have a god to worship than my tv

[badaustad]

Latinos will over take blacks in America in next 10 years as number one Muslim Group in both North and South America Inshallah.

Latinos are Catholics you goose.

[badaustad]

read first, you dipshit !

[fureeku]

(continuation of the 1st comment) last prophet, i.e Muhammadh, who'll be sent in order to guide the WHOLE WORLD. Every single prophet, including Jesus (peace be upon him) revealed this fact, although most Christians have decided to blissfully ignore this fact. Also, you've forgotten the Quran. It was sent along with Muhammadh as a guidance, and it is his words and the Quran that all Muslims like myself should look to when we want to solve anything.

[fureeku]

If you'd bothered to research more, you wouldn't have given written that statement and exposed your ignorance. Prophet Muhammadh (peace be upon him) was the LAST prophet, the one who completed prophethood. Before him, numerous prophets were sent to earth to guide the people and show them the light that is Islam. They all attempted to spread God's message, though the difference between them and Muhammadh was that they were sent to just different tribes. Funnily enough, they all foretold of the

[YagmurYPkkibneleri]

its not tipical muslim answer. its the truth...millions of people are muslims and u cant tell there are dum or stupid or wrong. there are so many believers in this world. isnt that a proof?

[ammir1]

Well bro is it about chosing the easiest way to heaven even if its doest make sense..How come someone pay for someone else sins..Isnt that in Justice.. and you think God is so stupid that he made us sinners first and came himself and die for our sins.. so just by believing even if we kill, rob or rape He will send us to heaven because he already paid the price of our sins...yea truly make sense. Islam doesnt belive in such stupidity ...In Islam everyone is responsible for what he or she does.

[nationarmy]

People that bash and insults muslims and Islam actually helping us,they said Al-Quran is satanic and stuff will make some people interested to learn about Islam and about Muhammad s.a.w and learn the truth.So brothers and sister plz dont insult or flame them back if they do that to us.They dont hate us,they only hate the massage that we are trying to send.We'll try our best its up to Allah s.w.t to decide who will be guided

[maxuezhong1984]

but can you give me the answer why there are so many muslims,are they lost their mind to believe that ONE person???????????

[mohamedsucksdick]

Sahih Bukhari Volume 7, Book 62, Number 64

Narrated 'Aisha:

that the Prophet married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e., till his death)

[truthman600]

richbee2b,

dear friend GOD in the bible & quran is the same GOD.

muslims worship the same GOD,whom christians call father. abraham,noah,lot,jonah,moses,j­esus & muhammad all worshipped the same one GOD of the woirld.

jesus is not the son of GOD & he was just a prophet sent 2 jews 2 reform them.

read ur bible properly & even the quran 2 understand the truth, as many intelligent christians have done that & in turn understood the truth about islam.

peace

[Tomar17]

rich, all Muslims will go to paradise eventually inshaAllah, but salvation is not offered on a silver platter, one must work for it, and ones actions matter, for they decide reward and punishment.

Nonetheless, Allah is the most merciful, and forgives whom he wills. Read the Quran for yourself my friend.

[nittenichiryu]

According to whom? oh..according to You. =)

Great Cat stevens Now you believe in the satanic deathcult Islam-You should rename your song to the Deathtrain.

what satanic about "doing good deeds", "help the poor", "being honest", "being gentle to parents", "forgiveness" etc??

What so evil about all that?

In Islam there is "Good News" and "Warnings". Not Just the "Good News"..not just the "Feel-Good" aspect. =)

Mashallah! Alhamdullillaah! I am a Mexican-American and 15 years old. I was born as a Roman Catholic. When I was about 7, my family began studying with Jehovah's Witnesssess. They eventually left the group. my parents follow christianity. My siblings stayed in Catholicism. I was then a Jehovah's Witnesses. Sooo much confusion. Islam is soo simple. There is no god but Allah, Mohommad(S.A.W) is the Prophet of Allah!!! ITs truly a miracle to see there are now 1 million!! Latino Moslems.

Jesus said Iam the wat the truth and the life no one goes to God the father but by me. Jojn 14:6 titus 1:2 says God cannot lie. Jh8:44 Satan is the father of all lies.So there IS only one name under Heaven by which one can be SAVED that is Jesus Christ God the Son
