?At Last I knew
Love!!!
In
The Name Of GOD The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
One
of the reasons that hindered me from choosing Islam
-
in spite of my convenience of what it is calling for-
is
that I considered myself
not
being worth being a Muslim.
Along the years I did a big number of sins and guilt
,
which made me feel it’s impossible for me to live my life under
the umbrella of Islam requirements.
After I finally spoke out
Islam testimony,
I
committed myself to it.
Although I realize
my corruption,
I
realized it’s better for me to live and die recognizing the truth
,
even if I fail to fulfill it’s necessities,
then to live and die in silence and ignorance of this truth.
After adopting Islam,
I
knew I might be the most miserable among all Muslims,
I
promised myself to do all the best that I can to live with
the Believe (the
faith).
This may sound strange,
but
I lived the
strongest spiritual moments
in my life during
those few weeks after I converted to Islam.
It
was like as much as I saw myself much weaker and in a lower
grade,
my
prayers turned to be
more gorgeous and
exiting,
and
the more I needed God’s mercy and forgiveness,
the more I felt them in my heart.
In
spite of all weakness factors that I still have to overtake,
I
used to feel
loving mercy and sympathy,
the more I went to
The One (God)
direction,
who
knows me very well.
I
never knew real
love until I
became a Muslim,
I
always used to feel it’s a big risk to trust any human being even
myself.
As
an atheist
I used to think that love was nothing but a pleasant expression
of the unsecured human feeling and his selfishness.
I
gave up love since a long time and I never wanted to know it
either as giver or taker.
All
that I was striving for was to live a comfortable life as much as
I can until I die,
to
turn into
forgotten dust under an unknown grave…
BUT….after I read the Qura’an and accomplish Islam prayers, a
door opened to my heart and I’ve been covered by overwhelming
sympathy.
Love turned to be more lasting and real than the ground I’m
standing on.
