We Muslims call those embracing Islam after leaving their previous faith as REVRTS for in Islam it is believed that every child who is born is born as Muslim. It is only after the environment and the faith adopted by the parents, one chooses another religion. So when a person decides to embrace Islam, it is in fact REVERSION and not conversion as many believe.
Having shared so many revert experiences, there still continue to be many more which are very reassuring that Islam continues to grow with each reversion while many are aspiring to join in.
The experience shared today is somewhat similar to the following experiences already shared:
Today I share the revert experience of a born Muslim, who somehow had drifted into atheism due to the company was in. But then something happened in his life that not only brought him back to Islam but also showed him the light of Islam to share with others. Today he is one of the most eminent and prominent Muslim scholar spready the word of Islam and in the process attracting many non Muslims to Islam. This is the story of Nauman Ali Khan, my favourite Islamic scholar of present time:
May Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) help us understand Qur'ān and follow the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, which is embodiment of commandments of Allah contained in the Qur'ān. May Allah help us have unflinching faith and trust in Divine Wisdom and decisions and should never lament for we do not know that something better has been planned for us by our most caring Lord. May all our wrong doings, whether intentional or unintentional, be forgiven before the angel of death knocks on our door.
وَمَا عَلَيۡنَاۤ اِلَّا الۡبَلٰغُ الۡمُبِيۡنُ
(36:17) and our duty is no more than to clearly convey the Message.”
That is Our duty is only to convey to you the message that Allah has entrusted us with. Then it is for you to accept it or reject it. We have not been made responsible for making you accept it forcibly, and if you do not accept it, we shall not be seized in consequence of your disbelief, you will yourselves be answerable for your actions on Day of Resurrection.
Reading the Qur'ān should be a daily obligation of a Muslim - Reading it with translation will make it meaningful. But reading its Exegesis / Tafsir will make you understand it fully. It will also help the Muslims to have grasp over social issues and their answers discussed in the Qur'an and other matter related to inter faith so that they are able to discuss issues with non-Muslims with authority based on refences from Qur'an.
May Allah forgive me if my posts ever imply a piety far greater than I possess. I am most in need of guidance.
Note: When we mention God in our posts, we mean One True God, we call Allah in Islam, with no associates. Allah is the Sole Creator of all things, and that Allah is all-powerful and all-knowing. Allah has no offspring, no race, no gender, no body, and is unaffected by the characteristics of human life.
