Italy Turns To Islam

In Italy the ranks of Christians who have converted to Islam are swelling daily. Just as in America, France, England, Germany and other European countries a growing number of Italians are turning to the Muslim faith for spiritual solace.

"Every day, people come in wanting to know more about Islam and the conversion process," said AbdurRahman who is one of the converts and who edits his newspaper from an office at Milan's Islamic Center. "Yesterday it was one, today there were two. They come from all over, from different classes and backgrounds, and they all have different reasons for doing it."

Italian Christians who have decided to embrace Islam include engineers, artists, intellectuals, students and even a nun. Most of the converts say their final decision to convert to Islam was due to a yearning for a new spiritual dimension because religion has become lost in most of Western society. Some of the people who decide to become Muslims do so because, like me, they are going through a very difficult period in their life," he says. "Others have family problems. There are even some who are high school students and have converted in secret because they are scared to tell their parents."

AbdurRahman who is a lawyer by profession received support and understanding from his own family. He says, "They took the view that I was old enough to make my mind up for myself, and let me get on with it. In fact, my mother, who is 85 years old and has remained a Catholic, recently said to me: "I Praise Allah, because if you had continued to live the way you did before you converted, you might be dead by now."

AbdurRahman continued "At the time I was prey to a terrible mental stress, brought on by the competitiveness that is so prevalent in our type of society. After a long period of searching, I finally arrived at Islam which says that no one except God has the right to judge and dominate other men. This is what I was looking for. For me it represented a liberation from a society which believes itself to be free, but which instead forces its members to bow under the yoke of many, many different demands."

Guiuseppina, now known as Fatima, was a Roman Catholic nun, studying theology and living in a convent in Modena in central Italy. She began reading the Quran, and as her interest grew she started having doubts about her own religion and vocation. She took to visiting the Islamic Center in Milan, and finally after a great deal of soul searching, she renounced her vows and converted to Islam.

Lamenting over the state of religion in Italy, Monsignor Carlo Liberati, bishop emeritus of Pompeii, warned that the rise of atheism in Europe, along with the acceptance of moral decadence that "goes against God," is triggering the rise of Islam in Italy and other places, the Daily Mail reported."

"We are in full decline," the archbishop lamented. "Parishes are the only thing still standing."

Today there are about 2.5 million Muslims in Italy. Many of them are converts to Islam that keeps on growing each day.
