Later on, two of my sisters, another brother, and a nephew


also embraced Islam.


The director of the recently opened mosque in Caracas


approved my proposal for a Sunday program to invite nonMuslims


to visit the largest mosque in Latin America. volunteered to coordinate this program with the imam the mosque and, be to Allah, complete success. About 250 people attended what was the


first public lecture I had ever to Venezuelans about


Islam. Perhaps for the first time in Venezuela, a mixture of


Jews, Christians, atheists and others about Islam. The program was such a great success that the grace of Allah, many Venezuelans embraced Islam.


The Sunday out-reach program is ongoing and anyone


interested in knowing about Islalll attend.


When I lecture in different notice people are interested in Islam. embraced this religion; many others take literature and through it gradually, just as almost

My Great Love For Jesus Led Me To Islam W


The answers to all of the above questions are in the


negative. Islfim is a universal religion, and Muslims are in


every country around the world. Language is not a barrier.


To be a Muslim it is necessary to believe in Jesus as one of


the greatest prophets of Allah, and in Mary as Jesus'


mother, whom Allah favored over all other women.


The first step to become a Muslim is indeed a very


simple and easy one. There are no complexities or difficult


requirements such as special ceremonies, or the mediation


of certain agents, or anything beyond one's means. The


only requirement to embrace Islam is to believe sincerely


in and obey the one and only true God, to accept God as


the Creator, the Sustainer of the universe, the One in


whose hands is life and death, the Controller of all things,


the only One worthy of worship, the One who has the beautiful names, and most glorious attributes, the One who


has no associate, child, mother or and comparable to Him. All forms of paganism must also be


abandoned.

Allah Almighty has revealed that no one can be forced


to embrace Islam. This is a fundamental tenet of His


teachings. "There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance


of) the religion. The right course has become clear


from the wrong." (Qur 'an 2:256)


And Allah has said: "And say, "The truth is from


your Lord, so whoever wills let him believe; and


whoever wills let him disbelieve..." (Qur 'an 18:29).


Islam also calls for establishing dialogue with the others


and inviting them with wisdom and beautiful exhortation


to embrace this true religion. "Invite to the way of your


Lord with wisdom and instruction, and argue


with them in a way that is best." (Qur'an 125)


The Catholic Church attained the it has today

After the Nicean Council was held it became a capital

over a million Christians were killed in the years following

Athanasius to unify the Christians. It may seem to most of

The Lord allegedly said:

'children also shall be dashed to before

"Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath


rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword:


their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their


women with child" shall be ripped up." (Hosea 13: 16).


I Since some Church officials have recently been so bold as to attack Islam


and accuse it of having been spread by the sword"', it is worth mentioning


that the word "sword" is actually mentioned 406 times in the Bible while


not being mentioned even once in the QUI' 'an, So which religion was likely


to have been spread by the sword?


2 Islam allowed Jihad as a means to defend and protect the weak such as


women and children, and not killing or dashing them, "And what is [the


matter] with you that you fight not in lhe causc of Allah and [for] the


oppressed among men, women, and children ... !" QUI' 'an 4:75), Jihad is


also an act of self defense nol an act of aggression, AINih says: "Fight in the


way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress, Indeed. Allah


docs not like transgressor's." QUI' 'an 2: 190), Jihad is also prescribed as a


means to insure the freedom of calling others to the way of Allah and


offering them the choice to embrace it if they so wish without compulsion,


Allah says: "There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the


religion. The right course has become clear from the wrong..." QUI' 'an

My Great Love For Jesus Led Me To Islam ~


It appears that the Bible is the only religious book in


the world that sanctions the killing of children, the dashing


of infants and the ripping open of the bellies of pregnant


women. The presence of such verses in the Bible and


ascribing them to God is a clear proof that the Bible was


subject to corruption by human hands that invented lies in


God's name. l A/Nih says in the noble Qur'an: "So woe to


those who write the "scripture" with their own hands,


then say, 'This is from Allah,' in order to exchange it


for a smalJ price. Woe to them for what their hands


have written and woe to them for what they earn."


79)


Compulsion is incompatible with religion because religion


depends upon faith and resolution, and these would be


meaningless if induced by force. Men and women must be


given the opportunity to choose believe in, but the alternatives must presented without


bias and without compulsion. Guillotines, saws, axes and


lOwing to the fact that the presence of such texts and others is a cause of


great embarrassment to the "editors" of the Bible, they have been interfering


in what allegedly is the Word of God.


They treated the text like any other


book written by humans; and therefore added to and deleted from it, what


they deemed unfit. For example ISamuel 6: 19 reads: "And he smote the


men of Bethshemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the Lord,


even he smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten


men." However, the English. French, German and Arabic translations


decided that such an act does not befit the Merei ful Lord, so they changed


the text to only (seventy men), They believed that the mere "looking" the ark of the Lord is not a crime punishable by genocide. Even at the


present time, with the Bible's exposure to translators and printing tools, it still being altered, One wonders how the situation was in the ancient times


when only the priests had access to the 13ible.

fire should not have been the optionsl given to those who


did not want to accept doctrines being enforced by the


Catholic Church. Allah had already revealed in His last


message to humankind: "There shall be no compulsion


in [acceptance ofJ the religion. The right course has


become clear from the wrong" Qur 'an 2:256).


Today, we are witnessing the results of compulsion in


religion in various countries. Drug addiction, murder,


theft, prostitution, corruption, rapes and homosexuality are


some of the consequences of imposing a religion on that is not carried in the heart.


Sticking to ancestral traditions will not necessarily


take a nation to success. For this reason I would like to


offer at least one alternative that can save lives,


rehabilitate alcoholics, as well as unite and


society.


I The Bible attributes heinous acts of genocide to Prophet David, of which


he is totally innocent. In 2 Samuel 12:29-31 we find: "And David gathered


all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and


took it. And he took their king's crown from off his head, the weight


whereof was a talent of gold with the precious stones: and it was set on


David's head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city in great


abundance. And he brought forth the people that were therein, and them under saws, and under harrows of iron, and under axes of iron,


and made them pass through the brick kiln: and thus did he unto all the


cities of the children of Ammon. So David and all the returned


unto Jerusalem." Also, in I Chronicles 20:3, it is said: "And he brought


out the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with


harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of


the children of Ammon. And David and all the people to


Jerusalem." It makes one wonder how the world can ever live in when such inhumane acts of genocide arc called upon in a so-called Holy


Book, and are ascribed to God and His prophets?

The latest heart-breaking news of the year 2002


regarding the Catholic Church in the USA relates to the


sexual abuse that some priests committed against innocent


children. Astonishingly, the top ranks in the Vatican did


not respond as though such acts were atrocious crimes, but


instead tried to cover them up by offering money to silence


the victims. I kept a report from several years ago where was stated that more than five percent of in USA were perpetrators of sexual child abuse. However, took several years for this news to become headlines on


the main TV stations worldwide.


The whole world was shocked when the latest 2004 stated that in the past 50 years, more than thousand priests in the USA have been involved in sexual


child abuse. That is an astonishing statistic to say the but not at all surprising. The undoubted truth there is anyone factor to blame, then itself. It is extremely important that these evil acts are not carried perverts. Bible itself encourages immorality 23: 1. Adultery and incest are two falsely attributed to some prophets. Of as we wholly reject the idea that involved in such despicable acts.

variation?" Many of them have been shocked by this


question since they have never thought about making such


compansons.


For example, in a dialogue that I had with a US


citizen, I cited a case where the death was imposed


in Saudi Arabia on seven criminals who, while under the


influence of alcohol, raped a woman. I told him that as a


consequence of the application of the full weight of the


law hundreds of thousands of other women had been saved


from other potential criminals. He disagreed and felt that


the law was too severe and that it could not be


implemented in his country. Based on official statistics, I


told him that in his country in the last eight months more


than half a million women were raped; an average of two


thousand women raped every day! He was shocked and


admitted to the effectiveness of the application of the


Islamic Law. If I could talk to him again, I would tell him


that in Islam, even if an imam were to rape a child, as the


priests have done in the church, he would be executed


without delay, in order to save the rest of the children.

a friend of publicans and sinners!." The irony is also apparent when


one finds Proverbs 20:1 saying: "Wine is a mocker, strong drink is


raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise." One can


only imagine the state of humankind ifit were to believe that one of the


greatest prophets of God, like Jesus Christ, was an alcoholic.

(Qur'an 3:64).


Having presented the previous proofs in this book so


that whoever has eyes can see them and whoever has


intellect can understand them, a has been reached


where Allah, the Exalted, calls on all people to embrace


the truth. Once again I affirm that it is my duty and


responsibility as a human being, one who submitted by


free will to the law and commands of Allah, the one and


only God, the Beneficent, the Merciful, to invite all


mankind to up the worship of false deities, whether


animate and inanimate objects or any other thing created


by Allah or fashioned by man. After repenting, they must


submit themselves completely to the will of Allah, the only


true God, Creator ofthe universe.


It is worthy to note that as much money, prestige,

life, he or she will never have enough to buy his or her

also says: "Those who have believed and whose hearts are assured

remembrance of Allah hearts are (Qur 'an J3:28). In

themselves the punishment of the Day of

them a punishment. They will wish to get


out of the Fire, but never are they to emerge therefrom,

So while one's soul is still within his body and he


can still breathe, speak and is conscious of his actions, he


can always repent to the Exalted. If repentance is


sincere and one testifies that none has the right to be


worshipped but and that Muhammad is His
