A disabeled Homeless Converted to Islam
Views:
Today I was leaving Jumah prayer and I saw this man sitting outside our masjid. He called me over and said can I ask you a question.
I said sure what is up? He said listen, " I drink alcohol, I smoke, and I am homeless so I smell filthy...so I feel I am not worthy of stepping in Allah's house because I am not pure. But it is Friday so I decided to at least come and stay in the parking lot. My legs Don't work so I had to use my wheelchair and came from two miles away. But I just wanted to ask you a question. I have tried so much and I can't speak Arabic so is it okay if I just pray in English." I literally felt like crying. I said subhanAllah this man doesn't even have legs that work and he came all this way just to be in the parking lot of a masjid because it is Friday. I then asked him are you Muslim? And he said no but I wish I was. We answered all his questions and then said do you believe in Allah and all his messengers? He said yes. Do you believe that Prophet Muhammad pbuh is the last and final messenger? He said yes. So then my friend @bilal2291 and I said repeat after me and he said the shahada. It was amazing!! You know you never know what Allah has put in people's hearts. Many may have just looked at this man and kept walking. Take the time to spread this beautiful religion! #MuslimsoftheWorld1Moment @sajjad12345
