My hands shook more and more and my face sweated.\u00a0 I felt a chill in every part of my body.\u00a0 I was amazed by this sensation. I had listened to the Noble Quran often in the streets, on TV and radio and at my Muslim friends\u2019 houses, but I had never felt such a feeling before.\u00a0 I wanted to go on reading but stopped on hearing the sound of my husband\u2019s key opening the door of the apartment.\u00a0 I quickly hid the Holy Quran and hastened to meet my husband.\u00a0 The next day, I went to work with a huge number of questions in my mind.\u00a0 The verse which I read put an end to the disturbing doubt about the nature of Jesus, peace be upon him.\u00a0 Is he God\u2019s son, as claimed by priests?!! \u2013 Glorified is God (High be He) above all that (evil) they associate with Him! \u2013 or a dignified prophet as described in the Quran?\u00a0 The verse came to lift the fog declaring that Jesus, peace be upon him, is a human being.\u00a0 Therefore, he is not God\u2019s son; because the Almighty God:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cHe begets not, nor He was begotten.\u00a0 And there is none co-equal or comparable to him.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I thought deeply about the out let after knowing the eternal truth that there is no God worthy of worship except God and that Mohammed is His messenger.\u00a0 Could I declare my adoption of Islam?\u00a0 What would be the reaction and attitude of my relatives and husband?\u00a0 Furthermore, what would be the future of my children?!\u00a0 These questions preoccupied my mind so much that I could hardly do my work.\u00a0 Taking the first step would perhaps expose me to great dangers, the least of them being killed by my relatives, husband or church.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n For weeks, I kept away from the people.\u00a0 My colleagues used to see me as an active employee.\u00a0 Since the day in which I opened the Noble Quran, I could hardly do my work.\u00a0 Eventually, the anticipated day came.\u00a0 On that day, I got rid of all doubts and fears and went from the darkness of disbelief to the light of faith.\u00a0 While I was sitting at work that day thinking about what I had determined to do, I heard the caller for the prayer inviting Muslims to meet their Lord and perform the Dhuhr prayer. \u00a0The caller\u2019s voice penetrated my soul thoroughly.\u00a0 I felt the spiritual relief I was searching for.\u00a0 At that moment, I realized the gravity of my sin of disbelief, ignoring the great call of Iman (faith) inside me.\u00a0 And so without hesitation, I stood up declaring: \u201cI bear witness that there is no God worthy of worship except God and that Mohammed is His messenger\u201d.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Completely astonished, my colleagues rushed to me with tears of happiness on their cheeks to congratulate me.\u00a0 My response was to burst into tears, asking God to forgive me and to be pleased with me.\u00a0 The news spread everywhere in the General Office of the Governorate.\u00a0 When my Christian colleagues heard the news, they voluntarily informed my family and husband.\u00a0 They also began to spread rumors around me concerning the direct reasons of my decision.\u00a0 I paid no attention to this.\u00a0 The most important thing for me was to announce my Islam officially.\u00a0 I went to the Headquarters of the Police and finished the matter officially (as one who converts to Islam does in Egypt).\u00a0 I went back home to find out that as soon as my husband heard the news, he gathered his relatives and burnt all my clothes and seized whatever money, jewelry and furniture I had.\u00a0 That hurt me.\u00a0 But what hurt me more was him keeping my children away from me.\u00a0 He did so to force me back to the darkness of infidelity.\u00a0 I felt really sorry about my children and feared that if they were going to be brought up inside churches believing in trinity, they would end up in the Hellfire with their father.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I made a supplication for God to get my children back to me so that I could bring them up Islamicly.\u00a0 God answered me.\u00a0 A Muslim gentleman showed me how to claim custody of my children.\u00a0 I went to the court putting the case in front of the judge and introduced my certification of declaring Islam.\u00a0 The court supported the truth.\u00a0 The judge officially invited my husband and gave him these two choices: Either to accept Islam or the marital status between us would end up according to the Islamic legislation: It is not allowed for a Muslim female to get married to a Non- Muslim male.\u00a0 My husband arrogantly chose not to accept the true religion.\u00a0 As a result, the judge made his statement to separate us and gave me the right to the custody of my children.\u00a0 In such case when the children are under the age of reason, the law appoints the Muslim parent as a custodian.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I thought that my problems came to an end.\u00a0 Yet, I was annoyed by the maltreatment of my ex-husband and relatives.\u00a0 They began to spread rumors to destroy my self-confidence and defame me.\u00a0 They also tried to convince other Muslim families not to help or socialize with me.\u00a0 Despite all these annoying circumstances, I remained strong, adhering to my faith and overcoming every trial to move from the true religion.\u00a0 I raised my hands in supplication to God, The Owner of the Earth and the Heaven, to grant me the power to face this hardship and to ease my life.\u00a0 God, The Near, the most Generous, answered me.\u00a0 A Muslim widow who had four daughters and a son sympathized with me and admired my brave attitude.\u00a0 Although she was poor, she had a great character and offered me\u00a0 her only son, Mohammed, who became a widow after his wife\u2019s death in marriage.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I live happily today with my Muslim husband, his family and my children.\u00a0 In spite of the hard life we lead, we feel content, satisfied and happy.\u00a0 My ex-husband\u2019s\u00a0 grudge and the hostility of my Christian family didn\u2019t prevent me from making continual supplication to God to guide them to the right religion and to shower them with His mercy as He, The Almighty, did with me.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n And for God that is not hard or difficult.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Ref: www.islamreligion.com \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 My hands shook more and more and my face sweated.\u00a0 I felt a chill in every part of my body.\u00a0
