Whoa, i'm a muslim.
On Nov. 25th, 2005... I took a real shahada (declaration of faith into islam). Ive been gone from my blog site since then. Christianity and B'nai Noach didnt jive with me. Christianity was confusing and I really hated the "white" blonde hair jesus... there is no friggin' way im gonna worship a god/man. Judaism was too grounded on race, hate and mistreatment of the goyim (gentiles) and the concept of, "The God of Israel." Islam's holy book, the Qur'an is perfect and complete.. and the Hadiths backup the Qur'an in interpreting its fundamental traditions, prayers, and laws. Islam fit with me because: (1) There is no other got but Allah. (2) Muhammad, may Allahs blessings and peace be upon him, is the most influential person in the world!(3) Its just better than all the other religions. (4) Shaytaan and the Kaffirs hate islam and the muslims. (5) Islam is historically rich and intellectual; unlike Christianity's rise to power which diminished intellectual thought and science (Dark Ages). (6) Islam started the European rennaisance. (7) My ancestors were muslim; Philippines. (8) I could get away with sin in christianity. (9) My pastor stole ideas and morals from islam and made it christian; i.e. not being alone with a woman other than your wife and family female/not listening to stupid music/encouraged praying with your face to the ground. (10) Judeo-Christian apologetics are pathetic. (11) The name, "Allah" sounds better than the name "God." The word "God" comes from a nordic pagan god, while Allah is arabic for "The *one* who is worshiped." (12) I always believed that eating with your right and washing with left is hygenic. (13) I love Jesus (pbuh) and the gospels... but not Paul of Tarsus and his anti-woman rhetoric. (14) The salat (15) Malcolm X.

BismillahirRahmanirRahim,
Salaam Aleykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatahu,
Mash'Allah! How are you dear brother? Alhamdulillah, you have taken the Shahadah! Our Holy Prophet(ASWS) is teaching us that Shahadah is the most valuable thing you can possess in this world - and the short time you spend here, you must spend protecting it. It makes sense, Alhamdulillah. We protect our valuables, by placing them in a bank, or "ADT'ing" our houses. Shahadah must be protected through continuous remembrance of our Creator, fasting and prayer, and training to rid the heart of it's spiritual diseases - anger, envy, stubbborness, slovenlyness, lust, greed, pride(The characteristics of the most accursed one -Shaytan)... My Sheykh - Sheykh Abdul-Kerim al Kibrisi, tells us -
"We must know that we came from Allah and we are returning back to
Allah. We must keep this alive in ourselves. If we fall into
heedlessness and we forget that the angel of death, Azrail is going to
reach to us, then any day that we are forgetting we are getting into
trouble. We must keep it alive in ourselves. We must prepare
ourselves. We are believers. We have to live like believers, not only
talk like believers or to sound like believers. We must live like
believers. We must take whatever Allah and His Prophet (sws) ordered
us and put it in our lives..."
The purpose of Creation, Alhamdulillah. Hope you and your family are well, and may Allah bless you and them with His infinte mercies, and guide both of us to Him, and forgive us as well.
Subhan'Allah - You are as clean as a newborn! This is the power of Shahadah - it can clean 80 years of disbelief with a simple declaration. What a treasure it is! As my Sheykh says, "Welcome to you!"
Allah emanat ol,
Was'Salaam Aleykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barkatahu,

Assalamu alaikum,
Welcome to the family.
welcome back to the faith you were born with :)
All praise due to Allah (swt) lord of the Alameen (Mankind jinn and all that exists), all peace and blessings upon all the messengers of Allah (swt) and upon all the true believers who whole heartedley submit themselves as muslims in Islam before Allah (swt). As-salaymaleykum brother Ayoub, the blessesd month of Ramadan is upon us and the most gracious Allah (swt) has given us a chance to ask forgiveness for our sins and seek out of his bounty in a most merciful manner for he is the most merciful the most kind and the accepter of repentance and the owner of retribution. He punishes whom he pleases and forgives whom he pleases. Allah (swt) causes you no harm, whatever harm comes to you you is what your own hands have brought before you. Allah (swt) wrongs not mankind in aught, not to the weight of an atom or the grain of a mustard seed or the slit on the back of a date stone, it is but mankind that wrongs themselves. If Allah (swt) was to punish mankind for all their sins not on the earth would there be left a single living moving creature. Within this month is a very special night, the night the glorious Quran was revealed to the messenger Muhammed (pbuh), a night whearof their is a surah in the glorious Quran mentioning it, the night of power. This night it says is better than at thousand months (93years and four months) whereas all the the angels decsend by leave of Allah (swt) and everything is decreed forthcoming. The Shaitans are locked and your reward for your patience,fasting and prayer may lead you to unimaginable happiness and a generous provision for Allah (swt) is rich free of all needs. In return all he asks is we be gratefull slaves of his by attributing and dedicating our lives, wealth and persons in his cause for he did bestow them on us when he decreed for us to be born. I might not live for a thousand months nor might you but if in my life and espescially on this night and within this blessed month we dedicated ourselves in Allah (swt) service and invoke with piety fear and awe of Allah (swt) maybe just maybe Allah (swt) will grant us paradise. Ameen and Ramadan Mubarak. Brother Abid
