A baby Muslimah this time...

Assalaamu Alaykum all,

just to keep you posted on the Dawah front, alhamdulillah we had another shahadah on the stall this last tuesday, a new sister embraced Islam with us.

She already knew quite a lot about Islam as she lived with her adoptive Muslim family but felt relunctant to embrace Islam because of certain cultural practices she had seen from them, even though they otherwise gave a good impression of Islam to her.

Alhamdulillah, we were able to show her this was only culture, she already believed but just needed convincing to take the last step which we did and we took her details and passed them onto a masjid in her own city (she was only in town shopping when she saw the stall).

But I couldn't help feeling that others could have done this a long time ago, talked her into taking the final step, closing the deal to use sales terminology, though we are not salesman unlike some christian missionaries.

But it goes to show, there are plenty of people out there who believe, who want to come into Islam but just need to be invited in the right way, plenty of easy chances to earn such massive reward from Allah as remember whatever good this sister or brother muhammad from last week does, myself and the other brothers on the stall will get equal reward with no deminishing of what they will earn from Allah.

When we are living in darul kufr, it seems such a shame to pass up on such opportunities to please our lord whilst we are here anyway, a criminal waste of an opportunity for which we will be questioned surely on the day of judgement.

Assalaamu alaykum,
Abu Abdillah
