They are Either Extremely Smart or Extremely Ignorant

There is a brother who compiled profiles of converts to Islam in his book “They are Either Extremely Smart or Extremely Ignorant”. This is no exaggeration. If you want those looking into Islam to immediately convert to Islam ask them to read this book.The good news is that this book is an open source book and can be downloaded here: http://extremelysmart.wordpress.com/download-my-book/

It's my turn :)

I was raised Seventh-Day Adventist. Until I turned 22, I never knew anything else. I knew there were other denominations of Christianity, but never knew much past that. When I was 22, I joined the US Army. The first week or so, the chaplain came to talk to us. I was the only SDA member, and was told that I needed to find some other church to go to, because they couldn't accommodate me. I was shattered, but continued praying and reading my Bible. I decided maybe I needed to find something else. When I went on to my next training assignment, I started asking people about their beliefs. My roommate was a Christian, next door there was a Muslim and a girl who was Hindu. Down the hall there was a Pagan. I asked them all what they believed.

For about 9 years, I simply believed in a god. That there was something out there bigger than anything else and I could talk to god. I didn't have a name, although I wondered if there was a name. I lost faith in the Bible, particularly the New Testament. Why would God need a human sacrifice? Especially someone he called his son? Most of the New Testament, I felt, was based on Paul, not on Jesus. And I felt it was more important to see how Jesus lived his life than how he died. I suppose, rejecting my Christian beliefs, I was called Pagan. I believed in God, but how could I believe in this God that Christians believed in?

Two years ago, a couple came to the door, I had no idea who they were (if I had known I wouldn't have answered the door). They were Jehovah's Witnesses. I began taking Bible lessons from them, and all the inconsistencies and concerns I had I asked them about. I was praised for asking questions, but more often than not, the answer was, "God doesn't have to explain anything to us."

Needless to say, I was shocked, put off and have made sure my blinds are closed and I didn't answer the door. Yes, I'm a chicken but I did it anyways.

Last year I decided to keep looking. The most rational thing for me to look into was Catholicism. I loved going to mass. The priest was a kind man. He always had a positive message to share. I loved that. But there were more beliefs added on top of what was in the Bible. Jesus wouldn't recognize what was going on in church! And would he accept that the Pope couldn't make mistakes?

While I read about Catholicism, I became impressed with Nuns, of all things. They prayed a lot. They helped people. And I loved their veils. I'm married, though.. But I felt if I wasn't, that I would have become Catholic just to be a nun. One day as I browsed the internet, I came upon a comparison of the nun's habit to the hijab. What was this hijab thing? So I began researching. I was shocked to see that women who wore it didn't feel oppressed. With that assumption shattered, I decided to see what else about Islam I didn't understand. I asked questions on beliefnet (which I no longer go to) and one person gave me a link to the Prophet's (pbuh. hope that's right) last sermon.

I had tears in my eyes as I read what I felt was the most enlightened thing I'd ever read and it was written so far in the past!! I found this site, met some amazing people and had help from a few people in particular (they know who they are). But I wasn't sure if I should convert. Something stopped me, but I had no idea what it was. One verse helped me.

"You who Believe, stand up firmly for justice as witnesses before Allah and even [be a fair witness] against yourselves or your parents or your relatives also. And whether its [against] the rich or poor, too, because Allah can protect both sides the best. Don't follow the lusts [of your hearts] lest you swerve and if you distort [the truth] or decline to do justice, Allah is aware of everything you do." (4:135)

On Saturday (3/6) at 3:15 pm my time, I said my shahadah to a friend from here. Today, at about 10:45, Maha helped me say shahadah over the internet in front of her Qur'an class (think that's what it was, there were a LOT of people there!!).

When you feel your past deeds and shame being lifted from your shoulders, you wonder how you survived til now. I know it won't be easy. I already feel myself being tested, but I can get through it Insha'Allah.

وبعد إشهار إسلامهم في يوم الأربعاء 11/5/1430هـ ، بدأ الجميع بهتاف الأخوة وهتاف المحبة "الله أكبر" بدأ الجميع يكبرون بدخول إخوانهم في دينهم وبدأ يهنئه الجميع بهذا القرار ، وحفوه من كل جانب ، وعلمه الداعية كيفية الوضوء والصلاة وصلى صلاة معهم كانت هذه الصلاة من أهم ما عمله وما أحس به من خير في ذلك اليوم .
انتهى (سون شاو جون) من مكتب الدعوة بعد أن غير اسمه إلى " محمد " ، فذهب إلى مقر سكنه وبدأ في تلك الليلة بالتفكير العميق تجاه هذا الدين الجديد الذي اعتنقه إنها أول ليلة له في هذه الحياة ، نعم إنها حياة الراحة والطمأنينة ، لقد ألقى الله تعالى في قلبه من الراحة والسعادة زالت عنه كل الهموم والغموم والأحزان كيف لا ،، والإسلام يجب ما قبله .

I was raised a devout, conservative Christian in America. I am an ethnic Khmer, born in America. In Cambodia, the land of my ancestors, the main religion is a form of Buddhist Paganism. Islam is the second largest religion, but is practiced mainly by the Cham people, who take up less than 5% of the population. Despite their religion, Cham are look at as voodoo practicing people. My dad's family used to be polytheists, but converted to Christianity because of the missionaries in Cambodia. My mom later became a Christian after she married my dad. My paternal grandparents, who attend two church services per week really helped in strengthening my belief in God. All my other relatives aren't religious. When I was 5 years old, my parents started going to church. My dad became a preacher, though my mom never really was that religious. I even went a Christian elementary and middle school.

At middle school, we learned a lot about the Jewish culture of Jesus (SAW). I also started actively reading the Bible, which I didn't really know although most teachers said that they were impressed with my knowledge of it. The contrasts between the total submission to Allah by Jesus, David, Moses, and Daniel (peace be upon them all) and the "all you need to do is believe" mindset of Paul were so sharp. At times, they even preached the opposite message. This brought up many doubts and questions in my mind. It became clear to me that Christians obviously didn't practice the religion of their messiah. How could these people have strayed so far from their original religion? The astounding differences in the teachings of all the different Christian sects didn't help either. The New Testament's teachings were also so ambiguous and vague, whereas the Old Testament was so specific that it couldn't possibly have come from the same source. Whenever I asked a learned Christian about my doubts, they gave me answers as vague as their Bible. I could argue both for and against any issue using the Bible as my basis.

One day, I found a brochure on Islam. The brochure was actually supposed to be scrap paper for a science project, but I read it. I'm a young American male, so you all can probably imagine what I thought about Muslims. The information in the brochure was very basic, but it was all legit. Admittedly, I was a little biased because my experience with Christian people and how they treated me, but the reason of Islam was amazing. Now, the brochure was good, but it was not enough for a conversion. At that point in life, Jesus (SAW) was still my savior despite the doubts. I became more curious about Islam and found a website called answering-christianity.com, which although it has a few errors, really opened my eyes. I never decide on issues without being well-informed, so I researched arguments against Islam, all of which were super weak. I used that website sort of as an introduction into Islam. It pointed out many more errors and contradictions in the Bible and in Christianity that I have never even considered, having been brainwashed in church since childhood. I learned about the life of the Prophet (SAW) and the scientific miracles in the Holy Qur'an, but more importantly, I saw the moral principles in it. I battled against the Bible and deemed it as a book corrupted by inconsistencies and polytheistic Greek philosophies. I battled against the Holy Qur'an and could find no fault in it--historically, scientifically, or ethically. I also concluded that Hinduism, Mormonism, Jehovah's Witness, Bahai'i, Buddhism and many other belief systems to be imperfect.

At age 13, in March 2009, I accepted the beliefs of Islam. I have never said the shahada to a witness, owned a copy of the Holy Qur'an, met a Muslim person in real life, nor have I even been inside a mosque, but I do salaat five times a day, stay away from haraam things, and have fasted Ramadan. Masha'Allah, my Arabic is coming along well. My parents, whom I have consulted throughout the whole journey are devastated. I am now 14 years old and trying to live steadfast in Islam. I feel like my conversion story is unusual, but I thank Allah but for guiding me to the truth at a young age.
:salam2:

SubhanAllah,
Your story is really striking. I cannot believe that you possess such an inquisitive mind at such a tender age.
If you happen to live in Southern California, send me a PM, I know a small cambodian Muslim community in Orange County.

May Allah bless you.

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

Let's go back to the very beggining. Roughly 6 months ago.
I was a normal 12 year old girl. Had boyfriends, went out to watch movies, was dying to grow up, ect ect.
It wasn't until I started to watch Bollywood movies that I REALLY got into religion. HOW you may ask. Yes, it's quite puzzling if you think about it.
(yes a few years back, I asked my mom questions about Christianity, which even she could not answer, so I gave up on religion.)

Watching Bollywood movies, I started getting interesting in the Hindu religion. I researched it and found many other religions on the way. This made me start thinking. What's our purpose in life? How did we get here and WHY are we here? Do we have a purpose? All these questions started filling my head.

Christianity made little sense to me ,and so did the other religions. Something about it just wasn't right.. I found a few flaws in christianity and hindusm ect ect. So I thought, how can the word of god have a flaw. Is this possible?!
Then I came across Islam ALHAMDULILLAH. I stayed up late at night researching it. I would go to sleep at around 5am, just because I didn't want to sleep.

A year back, I had done some research also and had some books. But I let it go for fear of what my parents would say. This time, I was sure of my desicion, and I had no fears.

Alhamdulillah 6 months later I'm still a muslim and wish to be so until I die In sha Allah! It's hard. Being 13 and having to follow everything that my parents say. I struggle with praying, eating halaal,ect.(PLease make Du'a for me In sha Allah!) I even get in trouble for covering. Which I find completly idiotic. How could you be cross at your child for wishing to be modest?! I see no logic behind it.I try my hardest to visit my local Masjid as frequently as I can.

Even though I'm going through all this. I have no regrets!
I'm happy I can go through this will all my sisters and brothers in Islam.

Ok I guess I have to start first:shymuslima1:

I converted to Islam 2 and a half years ago ,Hamdulillah
I was born and lived in Russia with muslims side by side ,but never knew what Islam was .

Then after coming to United States I met many Muslims ,but unfortunatelly not practising ,so I couldnt learn much from them ....but I fasted Ramadan with them and picked some arabic also .
I had the translation of Quran that I never had time to read ,one thing I was convienced thou that Islam is a true religion ,I just didnt know from where to start .So I kept on living without thinking much about it...

2 years after going thru many difficulties in my life ,I started to search ,mostly it was interent ,then books ....

Then I had to travel to a different state and stayed to live for a while with my family ,who are orthodox christians.They were pushing on me their believes .But then I realized that I dont believe in Christianity anymore and that Islam makes so much sense to me...
I continued searching and reading ...
After few months it was no doubt that I want to accept Islam with all my heart. And I did ....
It was a new light ,a new beginning ,a relief from all my sorrows ...The light that guiding me until today ,that is happiness in my life ...The Gift that Allah SWT has given me ,to be A MUSLIM :)

I just made it short :p

Ok waiting for your story

Salam Alaikom brothers and sisters

I became a muslim at the beginning of this year shortly after a got this job at a fruit shop, the owners were muslims and I would always hear them talking about islam and at that time i had no idea what islam was.

I became curious and started asking questions and soon found that Islam was beautiful and peaceful yet strong religion. I could see how passionate they were about Islam and i started reading books and just asking more and more questons. I told them that i wanted to embrace Islam but that i just want more time to read about it and they said that they dont want to pressure me but try not to take to much time because you never no what could happen to you between now and then.

And that is true, what if i had been in an accident and died and never got to become a muslim!!!! So the next day I went to the mosque and converted to Islam Alhamadulilah!

By the way sister Aisha1114 i think this thread is great!!! I love reading peoples stories about how they came to islam, it is very inspiring

Salam

Salam Alikom sister:

I will start by introducing myself
I'm a brother my name is Muhannad orginally from Jordan and currently live and work in Malaysia. i'm happy to see such websites which helps muslims and non muslims to know more about islam and what really islam is.
and elhamdollah it's one of the sites which helped me to show some on non muslim people islam and as a result. elhamdollah some of my friends reverted to islam.

Actually as my job required from me to travel around the world frequently, that allowed me to see other's culturs and how they think. im sad and happy in the same time cuz the globalization made us (muslims specially arabs) almost like non muslims in many aspects of life and in the same time many of them started to know real islam and revert to islam and become muslims and even muslims better than us (arab or who born as a muslims)

I really hope the muslims realize how great is our religoin and how non muslims are lost without having a right path to guide them through the life.

Allah knows that i'm interested to get married to a reverted girl who realise how valuable is islam and i want to help and support her inshallah.

I really want to get married to a reverted girl who realize the value of islam and im serious about it.
Salam alikom
