Portuguese sister
She was born a Catholic Christian and lives in Luxembourg
She says she refused to believe that Christ is Allaah
She did not understand the Trinity at all
I researched Islam
And I continued searching

Then she married a Muslim
And I continued searching

Then I reverted to Islam after searching
And not because of her husband

Her mother cried in protest against her conversion to Islam
Her father protested against her hijab
Her relationships with others were affected
She lost more friends

They told her
You will not be as beautiful as you were before wearing the hijab
They told her people will talk bad about you
They told her everything they could to repel her
But in the end, she didn't care
More than her interest in steadfastness in Islam
They were forced to accept her conversion to Islam

After accepting them
She started explaining to them what Islam is
Who is the Prophet Jesus, peace be upon him?
Who is the Prophet Muhammad, may Allaah bless him and grant him peace?
Why is she determined to convert to Islam?

We ask Allaah Almighty to make us and our sister steadfast in this great religion
And to make her happy with the conversion of her family to Islam.

Translated from Arabic

At this time of shared celebration and goodwill, as families and friends come together around the world, let's not forget the birthplace of baby Jesus is under the rubble of enmity and gross injustice

Rumkale (Roman Castle), Urfa which was home to many civilizations throughout history and an important center for early Christianity as it is known to be a place where the copies of the Bible were reproduced is open to tourism.

Rumkale, which straddles the boundary between the southeastern provinces of Gaziantep’s Nizip and Yavuzeli districts and Şanlıurfa’s Birecik and Halfeti districts, is located on a hill surrounded with rocks in the region where Merzimen Stream flows into the Euphrates. It is home to structures from the Urartu, Babylon, Sumerian, Seljuk and Ottoman eras.

The castle and its vicinity also draw tourists thanks to its natural beauties along the banks of the Euphrates River, particularly in spring months.

Johannes, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ, is said to have settled in Rumkale during the Roman era and reproduced copies of the Bible in a rock-carved room.

The area was occupied by various Byzantine and Armenian warlords during the Middle Ages. The castle served as the seat of an Armenian patriarch in the 12th century.

From 1203 to 1293, it was the residence of the supreme head (Catholicos) of the reunified Armenian Church. In 1293, it was captured by the Mamluks of Egypt, following a protracted siege.

Restoration works that have been carried out by the Culture and Tourism Ministry have come to an end in the eastern and western walls of the castle as well as in the Barşavma Monastery, which was built in the 13th century in the north of the castle.

Why do Muslims perform circumbulation around the Ka'bah?

Why do Muslims perform Tawaf around the Ka’bah? What is the significance of going around this Old House? The answer to this question must start with a look at who we are? Why are we here? And finally, the answer to all the previous questions points toward where we are going from here.

There are physical laws in this universe that we are continuously discovering. Among them is the law of revolution, which applies both to celestial bodies and to atoms and cells. They all revolve around a center and their revolution is usually counterclockwise.

Everything in the universe must follow physical laws except human beings who are created with consciousness and with free will. The Earth has no choice but to follow its orbit around the sun, and our solar system has no choice but to follow its orbit around the center of the galaxy. In following these physical laws they are obeying their Creator. Only human beings have a conscious choice. They are aware of their ability to choose and consequently, they can obey or disobey. When we Muslims orbit the Ka’bah, we surrender our will to our Creator and willingly become like the other celestial bodies of the universe orbiting in harmony His Old House. The Ka’bah is the first house ever built for the sole purpose of worshipping God, our Creator. It is thought to have been built originally by Adam. It was later rebuilt by Abraham and his son Ishmael long before the Temple in Jerusalem was built by Salomon.

People keep coming from the four corners of the earth to surrender themselves to their creator and orbit around the Ka’bah seven times in order to fulfill the essence of Islam (surrendering your will to God’s will).

So, who are we? We are human beings created by God. We are here to go through a journey that will not last for long and while we are here we face situations that require us to make choices. We are responsible for the choices we make and we will answer for them to our Creator. So our final destination from here is toward the One that created us in the first place and is able to gather us again to a Day of Judgment.

These assumptions are from the eternal message of God to us found in the Torah given to Moses, the Gospel given to Jesus Christ, and the Qur’an given to Mohammad.

One God_ one message

- Say: He is Allah, the one and only.” Al Quran 112:1) Islam

- Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord.” (The bible, Deuteronomy 6:4) Judaism, (The bible, Mark 12:29) Christianity.

- He is one only without a second.” Chandogya Upanishad 6:2:1) Hinduism

- There exists but one God, who is called the true the creator..... " sri guru granth sahib, vol 1, japuji verse 1 Sikhism

- He is one, he is without an origin or end.He has no father or mother , wife or son ....." (Dasatir) zoroastrianism (Parsism)

So Islam is not a new religion. It is in essence, the same message and guidance which Allah revealed to all Prophets Adam, Noah, Abraham, Ismail, David, Moses and Jesus peace be upon them all.
