🔺 Irena; a woman who studied Islam to confront it but became a Muslim
Rahyaftegan: Irena Handono, a Christian thinker and philosopher, decided to study religions, especially Islam, to find flaws in them and better fight against them. However, ultimately, due to the strong logic of Islam, she accepted it and embraced Islam to the extent that she became one of the staunch defenders of the Islamic faith.
After converting to Islam, Irena became active in supporting homeless children in Indonesia to protect them from two dangers: the mafia that exploits children for its interests, and the missionary missions of Christian missionaries that attract and insist on converting poor children, supported by Europe, America, and the Vatican. They use funds and financial aid to Christianize children.
Irena adds: We must distinguish between someone who has accepted Islam and become a Muslim and someone who is a believer in Islam. The difference lies in two things: a Muslim is someone who accepts Islam but does not necessarily perform religious obligations except for specific cases, whereas a believer is someone who consistently seeks to follow all the rules and laws of Islam, but above all, we must act according to the teachings of the Quran. God says in Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 120: "Never will the Jews or the Christians be pleased with you until you follow their religion. Say, 'Indeed, the guidance of Allah is the [only] guidance.' If you were to follow their desires after what has come to you of knowledge, you would have against Allah no protector or helper."
She says: There is no connection between Islam and terrorism; Islam is a religion of mercy, mercy for the entire world and beyond. There is no verse in the Quran about violence.

Renowned German orientalist, Mrs. Anne Marie Schimmel, shares her unique journey with Islamic supplications. Avoiding translations, she personally delved into the original Arabic texts, translating a portion of Sahifa Sajjadiya into German. A poignant moment…
Mrs. Anne Marie Schimmel, a renowned German Orientalist, shares her thoughts on Islamic prayers, especially the Sahifa Sajjadiya:
"I consistently read Islamic supplications, hadiths, and news directly from their Arabic source without resorting to translations. I personally translated and published a small portion of Sahifa Sajjadiya into German.
About seven years ago, while engaged in translating the supplication for sighting the crescent moon of Ramadan and the farewell prayer for that month, my mother was hospitalized. During my visits, I found myself working on translations in a corner of her room while she drifted off to sleep.
Her hospital room had two beds. In the other bed, a very devout Catholic woman was admitted, staunch in her faith and even somewhat zealous. When she learned that I was translating Islamic prayers, she became dismayed, questioning whether we lacked anything in our Christianity and sacred texts that I turned to Islamic prayers!
Upon the publication of my book, I sent her a copy. A month later, she called me and said, 'Sincerely grateful for the gift of this book, as I read it every day instead of saying prayers.' Mrs. Schimmel believes that Imam Zain al-Abidin (peace be upon him) is effective for many people in the Western world.

🔺 Cassia, a new Muslim from England The feeling when I uttered the Shahadah was akin to being awakened from a deep slumber, as if someone had shaken me to clarity. It was a sensation of potent serenity, illumination, and above all, peace. [Link: rahyafteha.ir/34578/]…
Me and My Patient: A Heartfelt Journey towards Islam
🔗 Rahyafte Reports (Comprehensive Platform for Missionaries and New Muslims)
👩⚕️ Cassie, a 23-year-old nursing graduate from England, shares her emotional journey into Islam. Her first job as a nurse led her to an 80-year-old Englishman suffering from Alzheimer's. Little did she know that this encounter would change her life forever.
In the initial meeting, she discovered that her patient was a devout Muslim. Determined to provide appropriate care, Cassie delved into understanding Islamic practices, ensuring the patient's dietary needs aligned with halal standards. Despite skepticism from colleagues, Cassie believed in respecting his faith.
After weeks of care, Cassie observed peculiar patterns in the patient's movements and speech. With guidance from the Paltalk community, she uncovered that these were acts of prayer. Intrigued, she joined Paltalk's "True Message" group, seeking answers about Islam and prayer. #InterfaithUnderstanding
Expanding Horizons:
Every day, Cassie explored the Paltalk community, where she received a link to read and listen to the Quran's translation. Surah An-Nahl became a source of joy, and Cassie recorded the recitation for her patient. The emotional impact was profound – tears rolled down his cheeks, unveiling the power of Quranic verses.
Discovering Islam:
Driven by her patient's devotion, Cassie attended a local mosque and was deeply moved by the sincerity of the worshippers. The imam and his wife provided her with books and tapes, fostering a sense of community. #MosqueVisit #QuranicGuidance
Navigating Doubts:
As Cassie engaged with the Paltalk community, a speaker confronted her about potential barriers to accepting Islam. Struggling with fear, she realized her hesitation stemmed from self-doubt and a fear of embracing something good. Overcoming this fear marked a turning point in her journey. #OvercomingFears #EmbracingGoodness
Testifying Faith:
One evening at the mosque, Cassie publicly declared her faith, affirming belief in Allah and Prophet Muhammad. The imam guided her through the process, creating a sense of belonging within the Muslim community. #Testimony #NewMuslimJourney
Gratitude and Unity:
Sharing her transformation with her patient brought tears and smiles, breaking down emotional barriers. Cassie expressed profound gratitude to him for being her guiding light. Joining Paltalk and connecting with the online community made her feel closer to them than even her biological family. #EmotionalConnection #Gratitude
Cassie's journey reflects the power of compassion, understanding, and the transformative impact of Islam on an unexpected soul. #TransformativeJourney #CompassionInCare 🌟🤝
