Why did I become a Muslim?

My son was asking me various questions, and I was unable to answer
them. When he asked me, for instance, "Mummy, why are there
three gods?" I was at a loss as to what to say because I
myself did not believe in trinity, and yet I could not find another
answer to convince him. Eventually, it was sometime during the
year 1346 [C.E. 1928], and my son had reached a maturer age, when,
one day, my son came to me, his eyes welling up with tears. He
begged, "Mummy, I have been studying Islam. They believe
in one creator. Their religion is the truest one. So I have decided
to become a Muslim. Join me!" Upon his request, I, too, began
to study the Islamic religion. I went to the Berlin mosque. The
imam of the mosque gave me a cordial welcome and told me the essentials
of Islam. As he spoke, I saw how right and logical his words were.
Like my son, I, too, began to believe in the fact that Islam was
the truest religion. First of all, Islam rejected trinity, which
I had never been able to understand or accept since my youth.
After examining Islam thoroughly, I realized the absurdity of
such things as redemption, looking on the pope as an innocent
being never prone to sin, baptism and many other rites of the
same sort, I rejected all these falsities and embraced Islam.



All my ancestors were fanatical Catholics. I was raised in a Catholic
monastery. I grew up totally under Christian education. Yet this
sheer religious education that I had received helped me to choose
the true religion that would guide me to Allahu ta'ala. For, all
the good things that I had been taught throughout my education
I found not in Christianity, but in Islam. I am so lucky to have
accepted Islam.



Today I am a grandmother. I am so happy because my grandchild
has been born as a Muslim. I know that Allahu ta'ala will always
guide those people whom He has brought to the right way.
