Islam Beliefs by Editorial Staff (August 26, 12:27 AM)



White women are converting to Islam in the west including UK and United States of America faster than that of previous decades, especially after the 9/11 event. Approximately hundred thousands of people accept Islam alone in America every year. Out of which more than 70% are women white or black. Most of them belong to showbiz class or depressed from life or victim of any big face. Although there are many of teen girls embrace Islam for marriages, yet they become practicing Muslim after getting know how of Islamic fundamentals.

Today we’d like to portray a story of a white women who accept Islam after being born and grow as Christian in her own words. The women who at her 19s married and accept Islam after analyzing Islam intellectually. Read the story below.

“When I was eighteen I went to a local two-year Christian college. It was there that I first came in contact with Muslims. There were a lot of them there, and I was fascinated with the idea of another group of people I knew nothing about-some people from the "Holy Land." I took a course called "The World's Living Religions" and learned a little about Islam. I met my husband-to-be there when I was nineteen years old. I married him after four months.

We moved far away to go to a university. There I met an American Muslim woman who wore hijab. She gave me books and pamphlets about Islam. I read some of them and watched some debates between Muslims and Christians about the divinity of Jesus and the authenticity of the Bible.

It was then that I heard clearly for the first time that the Christians (including the Catholics) thought that Jesus was God and that the Bible had been changed by men and mostly made by men's words, not God's. I was shocked. I knew then that I was not one of "them" anymore.

The close identity of Islam with the prophets, with the emphasis on Allah as the same God the Christians and Jews worship, with the acceptance of Jesus as a great prophet and teacher, with the tracing of their roots to Abraham-all these make a familiar setting into which Prophet Muhammad came to bring the final word, to set right with direct revelation God's word of "the way" to the people.”
