Why I chose Islam as my religion”.

would like to share some of my thoughts over here about “Why I chose
Islam as my religion”.
There are many religions on this Earth and before I convert to Islam,
I had the dilemma between Christianity and Islam. I read Bible
(someone forced me to read it lol) and when I read the Bible,
MashaAllah everything mentioned in it is similar to what I read in the
book of 25 Rasools when I was 10 years old. Many of my friends told me
that Christianity was the religion from Allah and it is very similar
to Islam yet the Muslims can’t follow Christianity due to the DRASTIC
modification in the Bible. No matter how many people convince me and
do “da’wah” to me about Christianity, I just can’t accept any of their
words. Islam has been so deeply in my heart and in my mind.
Finally when someone did da’wah to me on Skype, why did I choose
Islam?
The answer is very simple.
As a non-Muslim, I do not love this world. I know very well that when
I die I am not going to take anything with me to the graveyard-not the
fame, not the wealth, not my family, nothing …..
I keep on asking myself, and then what is the purpose of me being
created? Is God just having fun creating me? Why sometimes I am happy
and have good life and some other time I am very sad and have a lot of
hardship in life. What is the reason for all these?
Islam answered my questions well. And Islam really makes sense to me.
-Believe in one Creator
-Nothing can be compared to Him
-He is a supernatural power
-He has messengers to convey His message
I just need to know these things to convert.
If you ask me whether I love Allah before or after I convert.
My answer is NO
I do know that Allah s.w.t is the only Creator of the world and no one
is comparable to Him, yet I can’t feel Him or love Him yet.
Love takes time to grow. The love comes when I witness the miracles
happened in my life. After couple of months later, the more knowledge
of Islam I have, the more I learn to love Allah s.w.t
When I love Allah s.w.t , automatically I obey Him without any force
and am very happy and delighted to worship Him according to Quran and
Sunnah.
Allah s.w.t has mentioned in Quran, those obey Him and follow the
sunnah will have happy eternal life in hereafter. That is what am
seeking for insyaAllah. And now I know why I was created.
I was created to take “study” and take the test on the Day of
Judgment. If I pass my test inshaAllah I will enter Jannah and if I
fail I will have to company syaitan in hell fire.
There is no other reason why we must obey Allah. It is all to avoid
the hellfire.
The reason Allah created us is only for one reason
TO WORSHIP HIM
After being a Muslim, I respect myself more and even others respect me
more. They respect me because of my religion and the way I live which
is The Islam Way of Life.
This below message is for those who are hesitate to convert to Islam
for some reason
Well, Islam is not a ritual or a culture but a way of life and how you
are suppose to live your life according to the Creator’s rule.
Example:
Your mother will guide you and always tell u about the Do’s and Don’ts
because she is your mother who gave birth to you.
Same goes to Allah as the only Creator has mentioned about the Do’s
and Don’ts in Quran .
Question
You can love the woman who gave birth to you,but why can’t you love
The Creator who created you?
Ashadu an la ilaha illa'llah.
wa Ashadu anna Muhammadan Rasululu'llah.
I bear witness that there is no God to be worshiped but Allah,
and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger
Assalamulikum.

Share it with your Muslim & Non-Muslim friends

FI'AMANALLAH..!!
