Renate from Hamburg converts to Islam
that's not bad.
All Praises be to Allah.
And have you received my message?
that's right.
I didn't just sent the message, but rather after having occupied myself with it for a long time.
and what does your heart say?
My heart is more convinced of it.
and to be honest with you, I have very little knowledge about the Qur'an.
And I have been lately listening to it on the internet and have been to read it.
and my knowledge is increasing more.
Islam is the most simple religion and only one true religion from All Mighty God.
As All Mighty God does not want to confuse us with three religions.
Yes that is true.
I am Evangelical.
and I have had many tests (in life), and my life has always been directed towards faith but not with religion.
I have been convincing myself to pray to God. And that has helped me very, very much throughout my life time.
I have many tests behind me, i'll just say that, because I can't tell you my whole life story.
And I have many tests behind me. I am not young anymore.
And I really convinced that there is a God
I am today 100% convinced about this.
plus I can not argue against my conversion, because I receive every month adverts from ADAC reminders to protect your car
but my Church has never sent me anything
I have not been invited, I receive nothing from them. That disappoints me. And when I am in Turkey, I am so happy to see the Mosques call for prayers.
Yes That is how it is. I demand that from myself.
even though I am not a muslim. And I have never been to a Mosque.
and think to myself, I am not a muslim. I want to enter the Mosque, I want to pray to God
that is the natural nature of humans that God has created within humans, that we recognise him.
by thanking him and serving him.
Yes
And that is the only religion that Jesus preached, that Moses preached, Abraham preached, there is only religion from All Mighty God.
and this is the religion that has been imitated and altered in the past.
through the people?
that's right. through the lusts and desires of humans
and of course through the whispers of the devil. We have an enemy on this earth, who we can not see, but he sees us
and he tries to.. ...always again that's right.
I should have prevailed oft over him
and whenever the religion of All Mighty God would be changed, he would send another Messenger,to the people, in order to re-establish the same message.
God does not change his mind, and it has always been humans who have changed the religion of God
And after the Gospel had been changed, God send the Qur'an Muhammad (peace and blessing be upon bhim), for the whole of mankind
and first of all, to the christians and the Jews.
as the previous generation in the arabic countries were either Jews or Christians..
After God had revealed the Qur'an, those God fearing people, who were among the Jews and Christians had read the Qur'an had instantly established, that this is the message which Jesus was preaching.
And that he is a Prophet from God, Who is the last Prophet sent to Man. He (Muhammad peace and blessing be upon him) prefigured Jesus, and the God fearing people, accepted Islam intantly and they are our forefathers.
Are you the one who I recognise from the voice on the internet, who did a lesson on the birth of Muhammad for which I participated in? That's right.
I sat there and that sunk into my heart. I am so fascinated by those people who represent their faith, such as those who are Muslim.
and they are proud. And our Churches and our people, I am from Hamburg and I never hear from the people 'Thank you God' or I never hear something like that.
I don't know. I am ashamed to talk about this, because God is everything.
And for me personally the believe has grown within me to want to change and to do something about it. I feel attracted by the Muslim faith
I said it last night, but I had unfortunately some problem when I was speaking it out, as I have problem with the arabic language..
Then let us do it together God willing.
You bare witness that no one is worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad is his slave and messenger.
And now from the bottom of your heart.
Ash hadu an la illaha -say it again. la illaha ila Allah wa ash hadu ana Muhammadan rasul Allah
through this phrase you have now become a Muslima
That is good. That is good.
What does your heart say to you now?
Yes good.That is good.
Do you feel that in your heart? Yes!
I feel that.
All praises be to Allah.
That is the gift from Allah to you
I have received so many gifts from him and I feel that.
And I will be trying to accept it with its culture.
There is no tradition in Islam.
Yes it ls so here in Hamburg... not in Hamburg but near Hamburg, in Gesser. We also have here a Mosque and I alway go past it.
How do I go about it now.
I need to have a look to see what kind of a Mosque it is first. It would best for me to find you a Mosque where they speak in German.
I am going to look for a Mosque for you in Hamburg and I will then send you the address.
So that you can go there...
It is spelled. G E E S T H A C H T.
It has been newly built, well it has been nicely refurbished and I would like to somehow participate in the teachings there.
We know a lot of sisters in Hamburg, German sisters , who I will be sending your email address, so that they could contact you.
So that they could teach you the Prayers
so that they could also support you, Whatever you may need, you could alway contact these sisters and they would look after you.
because that is their duty, as this is a command from Allah that we may help one another.
That is good. My email is the one that you also have. I have it. yes.
Ok. Then let us do it like that.
Ok I know now.
How old are you? what was that? How old are you?
I am going to be on the 4th of July 64 years old.
64. In my entire life I have had so much pain and wish that I would have prayed as a youngster.
All Praises be to Allah. We are glad. You're now our sister in Islam and we all pleased.
That's lovely. Thanks
if you could also send me your address, so that I can send you a translation of the Qur'an and a prayer book.
Yes. Should I send you it via email? That's right.
Good. I'll let you now enjoy Islam and if you need anything you could always call us.
Yes. This is new (for me) You are now Muslima. you are devoted to God.
I am now Muslima. exactly like Jesus and Moses and all the prophet of All Mighty God.
Good! All praises be to Allah. How do you now feel?
I feel really good.
All praises be to Allah. We're glad.
