 Dawood Ngwane

Yusuf_Estes
Many people ask me how a preacher or priest in Christianity can ever go to Islam, especially considering all the negative things that we hear about Islam and Muslims everyday. I would like to thank everyone for their interest and offer my humble story, God Willing. ....more

Yusuf Islam  

All I have to say is all what you know already, to confirm what you already know, the message of the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) as given by God - the Religion of Truth. ....more

After twenty-five years a writer in America, I wanted something to soften my cynicism. I was searching for new terms by which to see. The way one is raised establishes certain needs in this department. From a pluralist background  ....more

Dr. Abu Ameena Bilal Phillips
So much was heard about 3,000 American troops embracing Islam in the deserts of Saudi Arabia during the Gulfwar. But few reports have spoken about the people who were instrumental in bringing about these changes.   ....more
Jermain Jackson

He has taken the name Muhammad Abdul Aziz and lives on the outskirts of Los Angeles. This is the place where he and his sisters compose their musical notes. It is constantly under surveillance by more than 15 security vans round the clock.   ....more
Malcolm X
In the years around 1960, the American Negroes became increasingly active in the struggle for civil rights. The liberal, intellectual Afro-American leaders such as Martin Luther King and their supporters, who fought for equality of and integration among black and white, had participated in freedom rides and protest marches to finally abolish segregation. But suddenly, they faced opposition from not one, but two parties advocating racism and segregation: The white racists and the so-called Black Muslims. This radical Negro cult called "Nation of Islam" became in an astonishing short time a nation-wide movement and a threat to the White society, because of its radical principles such as "the white man is the devil" and its enormous popularity.....more
Khadija Watson
Professor, Theologian, Missionary, Pastor, Church Planter, Licensed Ordained Minister, fundamentalist Christian, not a likely candidate for Islam. Yet, 6 years ago, after being raised in the Christian church all my life, (first as a Roman Catholic and then as a Born-Again, Spirit-Filled Christian) and having completed a Standard Ministerial Diploma, Bachelor of Theology and a Master of Divinity, I embraced Islam! What was it that brought about such a radical change? I started to question Christian beliefs while I was studying for my Master's degree.                 .....more
Aminah Assilmi
It all started with a computer glitch. She was a Southern Baptist girl, a radical feminist, and a broadcast journalist. She was a girl with an unusual caliber, who excelled in school, received scholarships, ran her own business, and were competing with professionals and getting awards – all these while she was going to college. Then one day a computer error happened that made her take up a mission as a devout Christian. Eventually, however, it resulted into something opposite and changed her life completely around.     .....more

I found that Islam was different from many religions. It was the only religion that was not named after a person. It simply meant submission to the will of Allah. I began to see Islam and Muslims for who they were not as the media project them to be. I was very persistent and I began asking many questions. Alhumdulillah, the sister I met was very knowledgeable about Islam. She had some knowledge about Christianity but not much. I began to attend the mosque regularly and in January 19th 2003, I converted to Islam.    ....more

Sacrifice Rewarded    By: Iman A. Alaseery
As much as there are varieties languages in India, there are varieties of beliefs also. Our heroine in this story is an Indian woman of 25 years old who came to work in Saudi Arabia as a nurse. Socially, she did not lack status and prestige for she belongs to the Brahmin caste, the highest in Hindu caste system. Professionally speaking she gained a degree in Nursing from Britain. She was also married to a famous lawyer from her caste.....more
Plane Crashes Led Me to Islam /An American Woman Discovers Islam / By Jennifer Fayed
 There comes a time in your life when you are compelled to ask "Why am I here and what is my purpose in this life?" These were my thoughts during the summer of 2001. I had been married to my (first) husband for about 3 years. The marriage was going downhill. My husband had no ambitions in life, and with two children barely old enough to take care of themselves, I found out I was pregnant again.....more
Yusuf Muhammad Ansari
I am posting this story on behalf of a brother who is now serving his term in a prison in Scotland and hence has no access to the internet. He is a brother who takes his belief very seriously and looks forward to correspond with other brothers and sisters for discussions, exchange opinions and ideas. I hope this story would attract attention of visitors of your web site to befriend this sincere brother.....more
Why Former Deacon Emad Al-Mahdi Embraced Islam
To start off, we requested from Emad to briefly narrate his story about how he became a Muslim. He started off by saying:

ruly, all praise is due to Allah; we praise Him, we seek aid and guidance from Him, and we seek refuge in Him from the evils of ourselves and from our bad deeds. Whosoever Allah guides shall never be misguided, and whosoever He misguides shall never be guided. I bear witness that there is no deity save Allah, who is unique and has no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and His apostle.....more

Why Islam? By: Dr. Laurence B. Brown.
Let's talk frankly. Almost never do non-Muslims study Islam until they have first exhausted the religions of their exposure. Only after they have grown dissatisfied with the religions familiar to them, meaning Judaism, Christianity and all the fashionable "-isms"—Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism (and, as my young daughter once added, "tourism")—do they consider Islam.....more

I came from a purely Hindu family where we were always taught to regard ourselves (i.e. women) as beings who were eventually to be married off and have children and serve the husband, whether he was kind or not. Other than this, I found that there were a lot of things, which really oppressed women, such as: If a woman was widowed, she would always have to wear a white sari costume, eat vegetarian meals, cut her hair short, and never re-marry. The bride always had to pay the dowry (bridal money) to the husband’s family. And the husband could ask for anything, irrespective of whether the bride would have difficulty giving it.

Authentic research has shown that over 14000 Brits have converted to Islam after having lost hope in the style of life the West is offering.Read Further...



                             Why did I embrace Islam?

My only convincing answer to this question is that Almighty Allah in His Glory helped me in admitting the Greatest Truth and testifying to the biggest reality to the world. I, however, know fully well that human nature and its disposition refuse to be convinced of certain facts and realities without satisfactory proofs and cogent arguments.
