If you really want to be a Muslim why don't you post this to Islam section

truthman2012:


You want to join the race to hell fire?

Before you do, hear this:

Quran 3:185] Every soul will taste of death. And ye will be paid on the Day of Resurrection only that which ye have fairly earned. Whoso is removed from the Fire and is made to enter paradise, he indeed is triumphant. The life of this world is but comfort illusion.

Allahh said all muslims will be in hell at death before some will be removed on resurrection day but Jesus promised you heaven.

i was born and raised in a christain home but the concept of christainity does not make enough sense to me. I became close to some muslim friends and found the principles of islam more convincing. Please how do i go about making my intention known to my parents, siblings, friends and relatives about my new belief without causing some disaffection, hatred and strife? I also want to know how i can educate myself with the quran and other relevant islamic books because i want to remain a muslim for the rest of my life. Thanks.

Congratulations. It's sometime difficult for someone who was born into a Christian home to acknowledge the truth unless God wills to guide him/her.
Every soul shall be faced with trials and that isn't enough reason to think God has forgotten you. Happy you have aknowledged the truth in God and Jesus, cause they are not the same.

A little Islamic fundamentals for you:
A muslim is one who worships God alone without associating partners in worship with him.
Now what is the religion of Abraham, Jacob, Moses, Joseph, David since they all came before Christ. The answer is Islam(People who submit to God without associating partners in worship with him).
Jesus Christ the Messiah, Son of Mary is a blessed prophet and messenger of God. His creation is a display of God greatness.
God created Adam from nothing(Clay), Eve from Adam (man), Jesus from Mary (woman), and you and I from our parents (Man and Woman). This indicates that God is indeed able to do all things.
Abraham was sent as a messenger, same was Noah, Moses, David, Jesus, and Mohammed. And we're given scriptures as a guidance to their people. Jesus Christ was given the gospel as a guidance for the people of Isreal. And whoever doesn't follow his guidance would not be successful in the hereafter. The guidance of the gospel as revealed to Jesus is the true guidance. But with all due respect man has added some words into the Bibles we have today. But the pure scripture that God revealed to Jesus indicates Jesus saying:
My Father is greater than I. Jesus never called himself God in the bible.

Muslims worship the creator not his creation.

To be saved all you need do is to be obedient to the commandments of God and do not take partners with God and believe in all the books revealed to all the messengers, believe in the angels, preordainment and seek forgiveness from God with sincerity hoping for the best in this life and the hereafter

To be a muslim all you have to say is: I testify there's no deity worthy of worship but God and I testify Abraham /David/Moses/Jesus /Mohammed is the messenger of God.

To become a good muslim don't learn islam from the muslims but rather from the Quran and authentic hadith. And keep good company that would teach you real islam and it's beauty. Don't rush things.

The world we are today is being fased with loads of tribulations against islam like Boko Haram, ISIS, Taliban etc. These are all enemies of islam and muslims denounce and condemn their actions . Don't let anyone convince you or make you feel bad when being associated with such. Have in your mind that they are not true muslims. These enemies are trying to make people hate islam and muslims but God would still guide people to the truth.

Islam has Five pillars : Believe in God alone without no patners in his dominion, 5 daily Salat (Prayer), Fasting, Charity(Zakat ) and going on pilgrimage if one has the capacity.

Your family might find it hard believing that you become a muslim. But you must stand your ground on what you believe. But you should treat them kindly and with respect aswell. Because when you die, you go to your grave alone and you would be accountable for your deeds alone. So don't compromise your hereafter after knowing the truth.

I'll advice if you are in Lagos you go to a good mosque to take your testimony of faith. I'll recommend Lekki Mosque because it's a standard mosque with an intelligent imam who would guide you on the truth.You can go to any mosque close to you though.
May God make you a good slave of His and guide you both in this world and the hereafter. May God keep your feet firm and steadfast in worshipping only Him without ascribing partners in worship with Him. May God guide us all and give us in this world that which is good and the hereafter that which is good. May God save us from the punishment of the grave and hellfire. Amin
