The Reasons People Convert From Christianity To Islam by Ayomivic(m): 12:15am On Aug 03, 2013
There are many reasons or circumstance for someone to convert from one religion to another but i think these are specific reason why some call Christians convert to another religions especially Islam.

1. Ignorant of the scripture : This is overall reason why people leave christianity to Islam.

Some Christians does not have good knowledge of the scripture, they can't defend their faith when ask questions by Muslims and due to this reason they are easly brainwash with Questions or statements such as Christians are having three gods, christians called Jesus son of God while God does not have child or wife, Jesus is a Muslim, it was Abraham that built ka'aba etc

2. Some people can be brainwashed when they are young due to the enviroment they are living and because the parent are not strong in faith. there was a boy i knew, who was a christian by name, he was living with his grand mother who was living in the mist of muslim. She was the only christian in their face me and face you house and hardly you will see the woman and her grand son going to church. It was islamic stories they used to convert the innocent boy to Muslim but thank God the young man had change back to christianity whe he can diffrenciate right hand from left hand.

3.Love : this is always happen to some christian's ladies who are ignorant of christianity. Some of them who fall in love with muslim guys may change to islam because they don't want to lose their lover because of religion. Some are even brainwash that Muslims and Christians are worshiping thesame God.

4. Some Christians had converted to Muslim because they were promise to be given wealth.

I knew a man who was christian. Close to his house was a muslim man who was rich and famour in that area. The muslim man love this christhan and the christian man used to go to the man house. The rich man later promised the Christian a bakery and car if he can change to Islam. The man agreed, he changes his religion and name. The wife who can not bear her husband new religion left him. Some year after the bakery close down. He then went into tranport busines because he could no longer go back to the initial work he was doing before he met the rich man. Now the car is gone. And the man life is worst than before.

5 attitude or behaviours of some call christians. some people had convertd to islam because of hiding attitude or behaviours they finds in the hand of religion leader they trusts and respected eg pastor. This type of christians are into religion because of people not faith

6. Ignorant of Islamic religion. Any Christian who converted to Islam, knows little or nothing about Islam .if they did, they would'nt have done that because it just like someone who see water mirage on the ground and jumped over it but landed in the river.

What do you think can make Christian convert to Islam?

Please, if there is/are christians who converted to Islam in this forum let us know the reason for your conversion.

@OP; we say revert to Islam, not convert because Islam is natural way to man, creation in general. Allah says that He did not create Jinn and Man except to worship Him. . .

The Holy Prophet [the another comforter of Jesus [as]; pay attention to the "holy" qualifier word] [sa] says people are born with the natural disposition to submit to God [in Islam], but it is their parent [as in family, upbringing, environment impact, etc [something external]] that take them out of it into other ways; Judaism, Christianity, Atheism, Paganism.

I remember watching Abdullah Kundee or Kunle, a white australian daayee saying that what benefit is it if a person never chose islam, independently of just being born into it? You have to make the conscious realization to enter it, at a particular age by realizing that Gos is not a man, or son of man or idol and yes, He does exist and never was not existing at no time, even before time.

So any scripture and way that God is son or man, that nullifies the way as a divine way. There is nothing Godly of God to be a man, son or partner or racist or non existing.


What is Godly is that God be Unique, Alone in All that is Godly and not part of Humanly or quality of creation because he is the Sole Creator.

2. You are not, ]O Muhammad[, by the favor of your Lord, a mad man.

Atheism is certainly a movement. When . . . I can't say (my guess would be in the 60's) but it gained prominence a couple of years after 9/11 when bestsellers like The End Of Faith were released. Ain't saving logicboy, lol.

Pls check John 16:12-14 the word HE spirit of truth will come HE will guide u into all truth, for HE will not speak of his authority, but whatever HE hears HE will speak, and HE shall tell u things to come. This taking about Mohammad u have to reason.
Jesus is talking about something that is not around during his time so we can't say holy ghost cos holy ghost has been around during and before him. U can only foretell what has not come yet. Is there any new truth the holy ghost has told anyone? What he hears he speak, read the qoran and u will see that is what prophet Mohammad(saw) hears he speak on the authority of God. He glorify Jesus and made us muslims to believe in Jesus.

you should ask the people who coined 'christian or christianity'. obviously Jesus was not a christian. in fact no prophet before Jesus was a christian.

no prophet talked about Moses before he was raised against Pharaoh. how will that qualifies him and disqualifies Muhammad [sa]? Nobody spoke about John, yet he cleansed Jesus of sin by baptizing him.

imagine a guy got A+ and your friends are saying that he plagiarized your work that you got a C- on? Imagine that and reasonable people will say your friends are ignorant to believe that the guy actually plagiarized your mediocre work. no one can sell your story to the worst tabloid journal. no journalist will accept the lie. As fantastically better is Quran is, The Prophet [sa] did not claim he had a hand in it, except repeat what he was told.


Unless love and peace is "i do not bring peace but war. . . ', then Jesus preached no war or division. And if fighting the money changers is not violence, then Jesus preached only tolerance, forgiveness of trespasses against you, etc and the purchases of swords, didn't exist, meaningless and for decorations. Incidentally, i have a friend who has for many years wanted to give me an ancient Japanese sword or Dagger. I refused it based on my following the example of Muhammad [sa].

Moses [as] was sent by the same God that send Muhammad [sa] since both of them fought in wars. At least their God is decisive. The God that sent Jesus you said is different because Jesus preached differently from Muhammad, definitely Jesus preached differently from Moses as well. But the purchases of swords are indication of pending war, just in case. When Jesus spoke in parable about king killing the subjects, we know there is potential to kill. and you say Jesus will come back and kill the jews. no? are talking about hypocrisy from you now or for sure Jesus is truly peaceful and dont hate, as Jehovah loves all sins and sinners?

You dug your own pit. so jump into it because if the truth comes from your mouth, you will see that Jesus was just a prophet in the time of weakness of resources and support that any sign of firmness of position, there will be torture. if you are looking for truly peaceful prophet, John is. so was his father, Zacharias.

i knew many people who did successful business but can read or write. how did they add or subtract? they counted in units. choose your unit. if there is 2,013 heads of cows, they count in 100 units and it will be 20 units plus 13 pieces. the funds are done in the same way. I remembered my grandmother counting by chalk marking. and when she got to 5 units, it will be 4 straight lines and the fifth across the 4. You dont have to be educated to be intelligent.

Muhammad Ali, the boxer was not educated, but was a poet that he was able to give symposium in university.

^^^^what reward does a person that couldn't write having with a pen?

first revelation, the first revelation is the first 5 verses of Surah Alaq 96, below. you will see that it contains what pen in the hands of man is; God taught man the usage of it as a means of communication, apart from the oral. You dont have to be a writer or user of the pen to be able to communicate orally.


Sahih International

96;1; Recite in the name of your Lord who created -

96:2; Created man from a clinging substance.

96:3; Recite, and your Lord is the most Generous -

96:4; Who taught by the pen -

96:5; Taught man that which he knew not.


96:6; No! [But] indeed, man transgresses

96:7; Because he sees himself self-sufficient.

96:8; Indeed, to your Lord is the return.

96:9; Have you seen the one who forbids

96:10; A servant when he prays?

96:11; Have you seen if he is upon guidance

96:12; Or enjoins righteousness?[/quote]

you stopped at verse 3, below. you should have gone further to 5 to see that God taught man the use of pen to write down and it is something among what man did not know before. yet speech is natural to man as the first method of communication. but verses 6 and 7 speak to the arrogance of man when man says i dont need God. atheism is that.



96:1-3
Sahih International

1. Read in the name of your Lord who created-
2. Created man from a clinging substance.
3. Read, and your Lord is the most Generous

^^^^here the prophet can read, where did you get your cant read and cant write theory from?

are you sure that at the point this was revealed, there was a page printed that he was to read from? IQRA have the same root as Qari [reciter] and Qirat [what is recited] does not mean you have to know how to write or even read. you only have to know how to repeat what you hear as in recite it/say it. a friend of mine put her mother on the phone many years ago. she was in her 80s then. she recited surah Duhaa [surah 93]. She was the a chief among the egba muslims and she could read at the time she completed the memorization of the whole Quran.



Take your ignorance and taqiyya elsewhere

I remember watching Abdullah Kundee or Kunle, a white australian daayee saying that what benefit is it if a person never chose islam, independently of just being born into it? You have to make the conscious realization to enter it, at a particular age by realizing that Gos is not a man, or son of man or idol and yes, He does exist and never was not existing at no time, even before time.

So any scripture and way that God is son or man, that nullifies the way as a divine way. There is nothing Godly of God to be a man, son or partner or racist or non existing.


What is Godly is that God be Unique, Alone in All that is Godly and not part of Humanly or quality of creation because he is the Sole Creator.

you are a big deciever. "Islam is a natural way"how? you and i knew that Islam was created by Muhammed.
only you know because you are deceiving the unsuspecting saying that you and i know. I dont know with you. If Islam was not in natural agreement, sept 11 would have done it for almost all of the muslims in north america. instead, people entered it, eagerly. definitely christianity is not natural. it is not natural for a man to worship man. judaism is not natural either because what is God if He is not God of all?



"Muhammed is another comforter of Jesus Christ" from which book did you quote that? Am afraid that verse does not exist, that was the reason i called you deciever. Don't let them brainwash you.
read the bible and see who after Jesus performed the duties of another comforter. show me the record and compare it side by side with Quran and hadith. tell me which person fulfilled the obligation accorded the another comforter?

@ RoyPcain. I dont even know how to handle this your stuff with my phone. But let me try making it simple here.


1st point : judaism and christianity predate Islam. Mohamed was born when christianity was prevalent in Arab.. He knew about it and is full aware of their practices then. When mohamed started repeating the same thing as of old, pls what do you call that? Revelation? Been the author here is not my point. My whole point is that mohamed plagiarized from folklores. If I go one and start telling people that your name is so..so..so or it was revealed that you live in so so so location........what is that? Revelation or common hearsay? You love attaching unrelevant stuff when buttressing your points. Before mohamed was born, egyptians has been mummifying pharaoh. It is not a prophesy but something people are aware of. It is not even practised only in egypt but also in other part of the world. I have argued this so called issue with you but seem you love shifting post when things aint favouring you. What was it the quran only penned? That ancient egyptians doesn't have records of their pharaoh? Common man.........you more than this.


2nd point : 'And they say' so it basically means they were lying? You mean they dont know Jesus, prophet in the bible and whole lot of compositions in the quran before mohamed? I smell Taqiyya here. Pls mind showing me how the phrase 'they say' implies it lie.


3rd point : maybe you ignore the line where I said he wrote receipt. Yes you agree he did write receipt. How can illiterate write receipt? Maybe you lost the defination of illiterate.....your dictionary should suffix here...............there is a big differences between non-educated and illiteracy. Illiterate is "Unable to read and write." Uneducated is " a person who lacks technical training and hence unskilled". Mohamed Ali might not go to school but he has a technical training and well built in some skills. Go to university is not what education mean to me. Beat that



4th point : answer the question.......was mohamed taught to use pen? If yes, how is he illiterate? And maybe you can find evangelist Atheist to defend atheism for you.......next pls



5th point: WTF? Is your friend old mama reciting what she was aware of before or revealing another scripture? I guess the former will be your answer........it plays alongside with mohamed. Before he was born was the myth of egyptians enslaving Israelites. The myths of Adam and Eve had been for so long before mohamed was born. Zoroasters pray five times daily before mohamed was born.......plagiarization of stuff here doesn't make your findings original.



6th point : when does it become necessary for musicians to be able to read and write? You love hiding behind lies presenting yourself as truthful person. Rashe stated that mohamed was illiterate.....you should present argument to show how he is illiterate and not comparing writing and reading to musicians. Deal with that

Uyi Iredia:

Atheism is certainly a movement. When . . . I can't say (my guess would be in the 60's) but it gained prominence a couple of years after 9/11 when bestsellers like The End Of Faith were released. Ain't saving logicboy, lol.

If you said Atheism is a movement, maybe you look for atheist that will argue that with you......... Is there place for right of personal opinion in the law book?

I read almost thread on this religion section......I see people's but wont fight them to be aways right. Deal with logicboy......it is his world. Cheers

mahdino:

Pls check John 16:12-14 the word HE spirit of truth will come HE will guide u into all truth, for HE will not speak of his authority, but whatever HE hears HE will speak, and HE shall tell u things to come. This taking about Mohammad u have to reason.
Jesus is talking about something that is not around during his time so we can't say holy ghost cos holy ghost has been around during and before him. U can only foretell what has not come yet. Is there any new truth the holy ghost has told anyone? What he hears he speak, read the qoran and u will see that is what prophet Mohammad(saw) hears he speak on the authority of God. He glorify Jesus and made us muslims to believe in Jesus.
who told you Holy Ghost had been dwelling in the hearts of believers before then? God ministered directly to the Prophets and all there was then was Conscience, read the book of Acts 2 and you'll be clear on the fact that the comforter promised is the Holy Ghost, if it was mohammed, we'll have seen it in the Bible....... dont try to explain the Bible if you've got no knowledge of Christianiy.
