Re: Nicole converts after watching Youtube videos on Islam
If Islam is a religion of peace why say something like this? Doesn't that sound just a bit arrogant and imply that the only right religion in this world is Islam and all non-muslims are on the wrong path hence are following the wrong religion. It doesn't seem to be accepting of other religions, other ways of thinking.
How can there be peace with other religions with this thought that only Muslims are on the right path?
But that's a difference of beliefs. Muslims do believe Islam is the only right religion. (Alhamdulillah)
Peace can be achieved through similarities, but to pretend differences don't exist would be a bit naive.
It's called Taqwa, the faith, the belief that Allah is only One, and Muhammad (PBUH) was the last prophet.
Now to debate whether it's the correct religion or not, is a vast topic that i very much doubt i'm qualified to debate (scholarly). If you'd like to learn about Islam, i would love to guide and direct you to information, so you can learn more about it. :)
I feel it's necessary to say here, i respect all people regardless of their religious beliefs. I smile with all of them, and i try my best not to say anything to hurt anyone's feeling. Because i will be held accountable for my words on the day of judgement. That's my peace; that's Islam.
As for the topical discussion: It's very nice to see her (Nicole) join the circle of Islam. MashaAllah.
