In response to their question, they ask: What made you become a Muslim?

26 years ago, I became Muslim. It has been a beautiful journey for me. Over the years, my mind has opened to different cultures and ways of life, and I have learned to truly accept myself for who I am. Being Muslim is one of the greatest blessings God has given me. I have been asked by non Muslims, including family and friends, if I will return to Christianity after my divorce. I want to share something honestly. I did not come to Islam because I married a Muslim. I was already Muslim before I married him. Instead of returning to something I never fully understood, I stand firm in what I have found to be true in my heart. Islam is where I found clarity, peace, and a deeper connection with God. Religion is a personal choice and everyone has the right to their own path. In this vast world, Islam is what works for me and for billions of others. It has never been my intention to judge anyone based on their beliefs. Many of the people I love most, including my family and some of my closest childhood friends, are Christian. My love and respect for them runs deep. I am grateful to be accepted for who I am, and I carry nothing but love in my heart for all of you. We should all be free to choose our own path in life. We can respect one another, learn from one another, and build a better world together.

We have a verse in our holy book. We have a Verse in our holy book;

"To You, Your Religion, To Me Mine" - Quran (Verse- 109)

So, I tell people that when they try to debate with me about Islam. It's simple, you don't like what religion I choose? Just listen to what Allah (God) said in this above verse in our holy book. :)

Now I want to share a couple of reasons why I chose Islam. I was truly astonished.

These scientific reasons cannot be denied, can they?

God revealed these miraculous miracles in our Holy Quran 1,400 years ago. Scientists only discovered them in the last thirty years.

It is because of these amazing facts that so many people have joined Islam.

Enjoy.

In the resort town of Skagen you can watch an amazing natural phenomenon. This city is the northernmost point of Denmark, where the Baltic and North Seas meet. The two opposing tides in this place can not merge because they have different densities.

The above picture of the seas have a verse in our glorious Quran. It goes like this.

He has set free the two seas meeting together. There is a barrier between them. They do not transgress. (Quran, 55:19-20)

My choice of Islam is based on this reason alone.

Here's one more. The rest will be up to you.

The Quran on Human Embryonic Development:

In the Holy Quran, God speaks about the stages of man’s embryonic development:

We created man from an extract of clay. Then We made him as a drop in a place of settlement, firmly fixed. Then We made the drop into an alaqah (leech, suspended thing, and blood clot), then We made the alaqah into a mudghah (chewed substance)... ^{. Thanks for all the emails asking about Islam and I'm sorry it's taken me so long to tell y'all a little about my religion. Please pardon me. Y'all can always look up the nearest Mosque in your area.}

final whisper: The state of ignorance is intolerable. Ignorance of Islam has no place in today's society.
