@op you want to count individual converts from Islam to Christianity? Ok lets count former Christian countries: Turkey, Egypt , Syria, Palestine.....
There is no such thing as a christian country...we do not christianize countries.....Our divine mandate is to live and preach to unbelievers with the hope of leading them to christ....Muslims on the other hand, wish to even islamise the world and force people to live by its ethics or die and later claim there is no compulsion....And rip to the numerous souls that were lost in those countries due to the devlish islamic violence and cleansing.

Read History and culture volume II, Egypt was a christain country, The Coptic Christian from year 117 AD when the disciples of Apostle Mark entered Egypt Alexandria. The remain predominantly Coptic Christians until the invasion of Islamic militant in the 8th centuries in which the Coptics suffer great persecution hence Egypt later became a predominantly Muslim nations, but not sunni muslims like Nigeria. Just google COPTIC and overview

Christianity came to middle east before islam, it is natural for Christian to be in Egypt before islam came.
mecca was a center of Jewish trading route etc.

Those men are entrepreneurs milking our xtian faithful dry.
Nigeria is one of the poorest country in the world and we have these private jets owners parading themselves as pastors

Ok even if they are not 100% Muslims, the point is we are not talking of individual converts here we are talking of whole cities towns or areas.
As for Palestine, go and check history you will find that the Romans under Titus sacked Jerusalem in the year 70 after Christ, leading to the Jewish dispersal. the Muslims took control of Jerusalem when Patriarch Sophronius (a Christian) surrendered the keys of the city to the Muslims in the year 637 (more than 500 years after the Jews have gone into diaspora)
During Muhammad ﷺ’s life, the Byzantine Empire made clear its desire to eliminate the new Muslim religion growing on its southern borders. The Expedition of Tabuk thus commenced in October 630, with Muhammad ﷺ leading an army of 30,000 people to the border with the Byzantine Empire.

The Muslims during the time of Umar Ibn Khattab launched an offensive against the Byzantine Empire. They were defeated, Muslim armies were welcomed by the local population – both Jews and Christians. The majority of the Christians of the region were Monophysites, who had a more monotheistic view of God that was similar to what the new Muslims were preaching. They welcomed Muslim rule over the area instead of the Byzantines, with whom they had many theological differences.

By 637, Muslim armies began to appear in the vicinity of Jerusalem. In charge of Jerusalem was Patriarch Sophronius, a representative of the Byzantine government, as well as a leader in the Christian Church. Although numerous Muslim armies under the command of Khalid ibn al-Walid and Amr ibn al-‘As began to surround the city, Sophronius refused to surrender the city unless Umar came to accept the surrender himself.

Having heard of such a condition, Umar ibn al-Khattab left Madinah, travelling alone with one donkey and one servant. When he arrived in Jerusalem, he was greeted by Sophronius, who undoubtedly must have been amazed that the caliph of the Muslims, one of the most powerful people in the world at that point, was dressed in no more than simple robes and was indistinguishable from his servant.

Umar was given a tour of the city, including the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. When the time for prayer came, Sophronius invited Umar to pray inside the Church, but Umar refused. He insisted that if he prayed there, later Muslims would use it as an excuse to convert it into a mosque – thereby depriving Christendom of one of its holiest sites. Instead, Umar prayed outside the Church, where a mosque (called Masjid Umar – the Mosque of Umar) was later built.

A treaty was signed by Umar and the Christians of Jerusalem. I could post the treaty if u want!

azzima:
but smart Alec the question is, can you mention any WELL KNOWN IMAMS that USED TO BE CHRISTIANS IN NIGERIA. Just as these pastors are IN REVERSE
cant you reason that being an Imam does not make money as being a pastor.
Those guys are intelligent people, have used Islam to gather enough smartness and realising that smartness only makes money in christianity they have to convert and make money from you guys.

Mark my world you can hardly make mention of Imams that makes money from being an Imam of a mosque. Muslims don't contribute money for Imams, each Mosque has a committee and the Imams are not even usually signatory to the account of the ummah. Try and Enter any mosque in Lagos, you will see a big black board where monthly contributions are recorded and the no 1 on the list will mostlikely be Alhaji Imam, or baba imam or simply Imam.

So, how do you expect people to come for such a job especially from christianity where the idea is contrary.

Also, You will note that you don't become an imam just because you want to be one, even if you have the requisite training, imams are appointed by the muslim communities. Even if you build a mosque, you can not force yourself as imam on them.! That is why you will see that there are lots of muslim schorlars that are not even imams of any mosque!!

hope this explains the difference

Re: Popular Nigerian Pastors Who Were Born Muslims (Photos) by Edzy: 7:04pm On Feb 22, 2015
yes we have so many Muslim born pastors who converted to Christianity from childhood in Nigeria, but if u try finding out the number of pastors who converted to Islam as full grown men; i.e men who converted after studying the bible, and some are even authorities in their churches ,u will find out that Islam has converted far more christians to itself .

It's you that will have to go check history properly. Mention to me a country in the world where introduction of islam was not by jihad war. Even in our own Nigeria here uthman fodio introduced islam for the first time in nigeria through jihad war. No country in the world witnessed peaceful introduction of islam. Many people for the fear of death convert to uslam. Those that could not convert ran to exile. So check history very well.
simply provide your source were people were EVER forced to convert to Islam and stop talking trash or you think everyone is ignorant like you even Islam have been firmly established in the north centuries before any uthman Dan fodio jihad.

Turkey was never 100% Christianity, only a part was mainly Christian. The city is Constantinople which was later changed to Istanbul!!!

Egypt was never 100% Christianity, even though Christians existed there. There were religions of the Pharaoh's and it's people worshipped dead Pharaohs. There was great amount of Jews, but they were persecuted by the Byzantine Empire(Christians)

Syria wasn't 100% Christianity, there many religions which existed way before Christianity. Judaism and other religions also was practiced!

Palestinians were mostly Jews not Christians. This was the land in which Jesus dwelt, don't lie here. Palestine was a large Jewish land!!!
I hate to disagree with you but Turkey was one of the great centres of Christianity and was probably almost 100% Christian. In fact the Hagia Sophia ( Holy Wisdom) in Constantinople was the biggest Christian basilica of the time. There is a good reason why Constantinople was called New Rome. And the whole of North Africa, Syria, Palestine, Lebanon and Mesopotamia were Christian lands which were destroyed by jihad. Today the focus is on conquering Rome and converting the great patriarchal basilicas into mosques. Lord Jesus save us.

Have anybdy heard anytin about d Christian CRUSADERS?
The Christian crusades were just wars and I actually wish the crusades had been organised many centuries earlier. The Muslims had been invading and invading Christian countries for more than 300 years before the first crusade was called. Do you think the Holy Land and North Africa abandoned Christianity peacefully?

Yes Holy Patriarch St Sophronius had no choice but to surrender. Tragic.

Takara:


if they were converted by force how do you explain the fact that about 10 percent of egyptians are still christians, there are still christians in Syria, lebanon etc, they forgot to Force those ones?
The fact that Egypt is only 10% Christian and that the lands of St Augustine, St Cyprian, St Athanasius the Great, St Perpetua, St Monica, St Optatus, Pope St Victor, Pope St Gelasius (i.e North Africa) are almost completely non Christian shows the power of jihad. Go to Algeria the land of St Augustine and the Christians you will find there are mostly recent converts. But St Augustine is probably the greatest of Christian philosophers after St Paul.

Now the problem is when you don't differentiate between Constantinople and Turkey as a whole!!! Constantinople is just a land mass of just 5,343 km2, compared to the whole 783,562 km2 of Turkey's land mass. In fact some certain parts of Turkey had nothing to do with Christianity!!

Stop saying WHOLE, this lands weren't purely Christianity. Don't get it twisted, most of this lands were converted into Christianity by force. Syria, Egypt and Palestine weren't 100% Christianity!!! Spain and Grenada which were pure flourishing Muslim countries before they were destroyed by Christian holy wars(Crusades)
