You're very welcome, sir. Thank you.
Again, I want to go back to the
statement of Allah subhana wa ta'ala. He
says and worship Allah and do not
associate partners in your worship with
him. So I know by myself coming from a
Christian background, being raised as a
Christian here in the west and also
being a preacher at the young age of 16,
teaching and preaching this particular
doctrine. Yet at the same time when I
began to develop as a human being and
become a
man, I was uh investigating Islam and
investigated the oneness of God. And I
was uh taken away by the Quran's
prevalent message that the Quran sends
out to its readers is that there's only
one God. And this is throughout the
Quran from his beginning chapter to his
last chapter that the emphasis for the
servant or for the seeker of truth in
the Quran is God. That Allahh says in
Quran that he has not created the man
nor jin except for the only purpose of
worship. But this ibada, this worship in
Islam or in any other religion can be
persuaded or misguided by the whispers
and the deceptions and the ideas of
Satan or the devil or Lucifer, whichever
words you choose to give him uh can come
along and persuade you otherwise in your
worship of God, feeling that you are so
sinful or you are such a bad individual
that you will begin to say, how bad you
are that you need to go through another
mediator in order to talk to God. Let me
answer this call and I'll explain this
in further detail inshallah. Thank you
for calling Islamic Perspectives.
Yes. I'm trying to find out what's going
on you saying about this thing. I'm
trying to see is that the right thing
what I should be doing as a lady. Okay,
that's a good question ma'am. Uh so what
is your belief at this particular time?
I you know I believe in everything you
said. Alhamdulillah. So the the the best
thing that I would tell you at this
particular time and I'm and I I I want
you to listen to me very carefully.
Okay. And I want you to hear exactly
what I'm getting ready to tell you that
it is it is of great importance that if
Allah has brought you to this point
because the Quran says Allah is the one
who guides and whom Allah guides no one
can lead them astray. So it is the
purpose of Allah subhana wa ta'ala that
this night on this month at this time
that he allows you to call to this show
so that you could save your life and
have salvation with Allah. So the best
thing that you possibly can do right now
is to bear witness that there's only one
God who is worthy of worship and nothing
else whether it be a human being whether
it be a rock whether it be a building
whether it be yourself or any other
thing is worthy of worship except one
God. Do you agree with that? Yes, that's
what I agree with. I'm trying to tell
you I'm I'm going through a kidney
problem. Don't know when I need to be on
dialysis and I'm trying to see, you
know, what kind of faith, what is out
there, what I need to be doing. This is
this is exactly what you need to be
doing. You need to be Muslim, sister.
This is the only thing that the Quran
Allah says in his book that this is the
only thing that is acceptable to him is
that you submit only to him. Okay? And
that's what I want to do. I want to get
myself right. Mhm. So, are you ready to
become Muslim? Yes. So, could you raise
your right hand right now with me like
you see me doing on the TV? Just watch
my hand. Right. Okay. I got it. Okay.
Now, I want to explain to you that when
we do this, that every sin that you have
ever committed in your life, Allah will
forgive you. Okay? And that if you were
to die from that kidney disease or that
kidney problem that you have right now,
Yes, sir. you would enter ja. And ja in
Arabic means paradise. that Allah would
allow you to enter heaven. Okay. And you
would enter it without sin. Okay. So,
you understand this? Yes. Is there
anybody forcing you to do this? No, sir.
You're doing this out of your own
initiative. I'm doing it out of my own
trying to save myself. Okay. Kids, I got
five kids.
Alhamdulillah. Say this with me, sister.
Okay. I will say it in English first and
then I will come back and say it in the
in the Arabic language. I bear witness.
I bear witness that there is only one
God that there is only one God worthy of
worship worthy of worship except Allah
except Allah and I bear witness and I
bow you say bear witness bear witness I
bear witness that Muhammad Muhammad is
the slave is the slave and final
messenger is the final messenger of God
of God. Now I want you to repeat after
me in Arabic. Okay. Okay.
Allah
illallah
muhamadan
alhamdulillah sister uh what I want to
tell you welcome to Islam what I want to
also say to you is that you have a
computer yes sir okay I want you to Go

Dawa Center, this center that was uh

Mashallah. Okay. Thank you. A sister, I
want you to hold on so some brothers can
talk to you. Okay. Okay. Thank you.
Alhamdulillah. Allahbar. Surely Allah is
the greatest and Allah is the one who
guides
to alhamdulillah to Allah subhana wa
ta'ala for his guidance and his mercy
that we don't know at any particular
point in time when it is that we are to
meet Allah today could be your very last
day your very last second your very last
hour your very last minute to change
your life and accept the truth that
there is only one God if you die as an
individual believing that Jesus
believing that a
believing that a building, believing
that a person, believing that a saint
has the ability to answer your prayers
and that you need to go to these
individuals, then you die as a
disbeliever. And Allah himself, God has
promised those individuals who deny the
power of the creator and his ability
that they will be guaranteed janum
hellfire. So I call to you brothers and
you sisters that are listening, you
Christian brothers and you Christian
sisters, you Jewish brothers and you
Jewish sisters and you atheist brothers
and you atheist sisters that you really
think about your life and think about it
in a manner that all of the things that
Allah has provided for you, the eyes,
the ears, the seeing, the ability to
walk, the ability to talk, the ability
to formulate words and speak, all of
these are gifts. And Allah said he has
given you this as an ama as a trust to
you. And how do you respect the trust
that Allah has given you? You submit to
the one who gave it to you and recognize
that everything that you have,
everything that you are at this
particular moment in your life, wherever
you are in your life, Allah is still in
control. Allah sees your every need.
Allah provides your every need. In any
manner that you are suffering or going
through anything, Allah is there for
you. So I want to go back to this verse
in Quran. Do we have another caller?
Alhamdulillah. Uh thank you for calling
Islamic perspective.
