Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Kadijah Michelle.
Today we talk to Kadija and Nawal on the topic of convert women and the mosque in the USA and the problems they face due to the cultural ideas of Muslims. Topics discussed include:
Kadija's literature review titled "American Muslim Women: Their Relationship with American Mosques" The biggest problems that new Muslims face Why women are excluded from some mosques in the USA The difference between Christians and Muslims with regards to how women interact with their places of worship Eastern cultural Islam vs true Islam How converts are less affected by Eastern cultural Islam Segregation of the sexes in mosques
Also:
Social services and social support for Muslim women The difference between mono-cultured mosques and mixed mosques that cater for a mix of cultures Cultural conditioning The reasons why women are culturally excluded from mosques The Westerner's expectations of community verses an immigrant's expectations Finding communities besides Islamic communities
See Kadija's convert story here: https://untoislam.com/podcast/i-grew-up-in-a-military-household About Kadijah: My name is Kadijah, but I was born Michelle Kastriba. I converted the day before Ramadan in 2004 when I was 24 years old, and I will be 41 in a couple months. I grew up as an Army Brat. I was born on a Military Installation in West Germany (it was still the Cold War), and moved frequently between the U.S. and Europe as a child until my father retired from the Army and we settled in Pennsylvania in 1995. For several years, I was a pharmacy technician until I decided to go to college to pursue a degree in Economics, and I am currently a Junior at Penn State. I am also a proud and happy homemaker. I am an avid reader, and I love crochet. I am extremely passionate about volunteering and also empowering women. Most of my volunteering has been fundraising activities for Muslim organization including several years that organized and led many campaigns for my local Islamic School. Through the years, I have been asked by different groups in the Harrisburg, PA area to speak about my experiences as a Muslim including a panel at the Harrisburg Masjid and also at Harrisburg Area Community College. Lately, though, I have stepped back from volunteering and fundraising to focus on gaining knowledge. My focus now is to become an Islamic Educator for Women. I believe we desperately need them. I think what is most important about my experience is that I was born and raised Catholic. Even though I went to Church and Catholic school, I always felt something wasn't right, and I would pray for God to guide me. I grew in a military household at the end of the Cold War and the beginning of the War on Terror. Before I became a Muslim, my family and I had a very negative opinion of Islam and it's followers because that was the culture that we were exposed to. Then I started working as a clerk with two wonderful Muslims, and I started learning that Islam is not what happened on September 11, but so much more...it was the answer to my prayers. Alhumdilillah.

Host: Gina Marie DeBarthe. Guest: Maryline David.
Seeking Connection With God In this episode, we discuss Maryline's conversion to Islam. Maryline was raised Catholic, but after moving to Ireland learned more about other religions including Islam. She discusses how her desire to have a closer relationship to God led her to Islam. Sister Maryline converted 15 years ago and currently lives with her family in Spain.
Some key points discussed:
Her religious upbringing. Political Islam Cultural Islam Misconceptions about Islam. Her time in Yemen Taking her Shahada. Building a closer relationship with God.
This is the book that Maryline mentioned: https://untoislam.com/book/struggling-to-surrender-jeffrey-lang The course taught by Maryline (99 names of Allah) can be found at Back to the Fitra Academy: http://kathrynljones.com/
Maryline says: I converted in 2006, so I have been Muslim for 15 years this year. I am less than a year away from reaching the Islamic age of maturity, 40. I am French. I grew up in a Catholic family. Some members of my family were/are very committed to their faith, including nuns, priests, chaplains or workers for Christian organisations (particularly L'Arche founded by Jean Vanier) and some are non-believers. I attended a Catholic school from 2 to 18 years old I think this is important to mention as it has shaped my path as a Muslim in some ways (as a reaction to what I grew up with initially) and it has also offered me paths of reflection and inspiration more recently. I grew up in a small town in Brittany (4000 inhabitants). My grandfather, my father and I were all born in that town, and my ancestors were born in France as far as I am aware. I currently live in Spain, South of Valencia, after having lived in Sheffield, Belfast, London, Paris and Dublin. I trained as a translator and more recently, as a secondary school teacher. I am an expert in languages and I am fascinated by the language reflects reality. I have two young children (10 and 5) and so, I don't have a lot of time for hobbies, but I love swimming, and I started open-water swimming during lockdown, with one of my achievements being to swim about a mile in 12 degrees celsius water. I generally love nature walks, and I would love to have more time for reading and writing. I am also interested in permaculture and how to build resilient communities, in alternative medicine of all sorts, especially unani tibb. I am not an expert in any of these fields, but I did start training in some of these (hijama and unani tibb particularly) I am passionate about inclusion, in helping those who feel marginalised in any way, shape or form, to find their place . I am also passionate about supporting mothers, and women in general, spiritually, emotionally, but also in very practical ways at a local level. Covid restrictions had destroyed all the informal social tissue in my neighbourhood: the playgroups, the mum and baby coffee mornings, the breastfeeding advice cafes, etc. Without these, I have no idea how I would have functioned when I first became a mother, and my heart was completely broken for the isolated mums. We need a village to raise a child, and it is the building of this village that I am passionate about (metaphorically and in very concrete ways as well). I believe this starts by ourselves if we can, in whatever capacity. I am also a Back to the Fitrah mentor, and this means I help Muslims come back to their God-given wisdom, to their fitrah, to identify when they are following their inner compass or not (what we describe as being inside out or outside in). At Back to the Fitrah, I hold a gathering online each week called the 99 Names of Allah from the Inside Out, where we go through each of Allah's names and chat about how this name has manifested itself in our lives or how we can live by this name. In the future, I also intend to offer what I learned at Back to the Fitrah in French. I am also a volunteer with Rabata, and although I don't have a major role in the organisation, I feel passionate about how it supports women in their pursuit of sacred knowledge. Both these organisations are headed by converts , and this was one of the reasons I initially approached them, and I found there the support and the understanding I needed.

Gene says: I am an English teacher from New Zealand and Australia. I have a BA in Asian Studies and a Graduate Diploma in Education. I have been living and working in Indonesia from 1995 until now. My longest job was as a Senior English Language Teacher at a language school for 7 years. I also taught in Private Schools and Businesses in Jakarta.

I am also a writer, editor, translator, public speaker, motivator, personal counselor, and often help friends with business development, marketing and strategic analysis.

I frequently guide and help new converts, and many people (Indonesian and westerners) have converted to Islam after discussing religion with me. I sometimes talk with Indonesian Muslims who have not done salat for 20-30 years, and after one conversation with me, they start praying 5x again. In the past few years, I have been trying to establish a free national teacher training program to improve the quality of 3 million teachers in Indonesia. They teach 60 million students every year. I have set up a not-for-profit foundation in Indonesia to build that program and several others, but don't have any funding yet to start my programs. I am often busy with a wide range of activities in Jakarta, including writing a book about Christianity and Islam, editing books and articles, giving speeches about Islam, running charity and social programs for orphans and poor children, giving advice and counseling about various subjects such as education, religion and social problems.I have a Facebook page and blog in Indonesian language, both of which are updated daily.

Host: Cedric Du Peloux. Guest: Imam Yusef Maisonet.
Inspirational Advice From American Latino Muslim Leader This is Imam Yusef's second episode with us. The first episode was his convert story: https://untoislam.com/podcast/from-harlem-to-mecca-a-latinos-journey-in-islam In this episode we ask Imam Yusef for more advice about converting to Islam. About Imam Yusef: Born in the fifties, Yusef Maisonet's life began to a rocky start. With his parents arrested for drugs, a then three-year-old Yusef and his siblings spent their early years in an orphanage. But after much of his childhood spent in the orphanage, his life changed when he picked up a copy of the Quran. Islam had a profound impact on Yusef's life. Now you can join him as he recounts his unique life as a Latino Muslim, his experiences with religion, and his travels across the planet. From France and England to Jerusalem, Puerto Rico and even North Korea, Yusef gives an enlightening glimpse into Islam around the world, and the vastly different cultures he found along the way. From meeting with Salafis, Shiites, Sunni, Sufi, and everything in between, Yusef has learned from them all. With insights on prayer, life as a Muslim, and his Latino identity, From Harlem to Mecca is a powerful and inspirational account of faith, worship, and the American Latino Muslim community.

In this interview we talk with Danielle LoDuca, an American woman from NY who converted to Islam during the aftermath of 9-11. While working on a project in college, she aimed to prove that all religions were man-made but after reading the Quran her school project went in a completely new direction and she ended up dedicating herself to the study of Islam.

Believes the state of our communities, societies and the ummah have a lot to do with the state of health and strength of our women, that if women realize their importance and value, our state of being as a whole will change.

If we want men to be better if we want our communities to be stronger, it starts with women. Danielle is passionate about helping others with their journeys to and in Islam. She's dissatisfied with some approaches taken by many mosques and tries to help individuals whenever she can so they can find the way that best works for them to learn and practice Islam.

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Shaykh Bilal Brown.
Convert Care for New Muslims Today we talk to Shaykh Bilal Brown, Managing Director of New Beginnings. Shaykh Bilal Brown is also a convert. https://beginnings.org.uk/ New Beginnings is all about convert care and helping people in their first years of Islam. From the website: New Beginnings aims to create welcoming, non-judgemental environments and spaces, online and in-person, that nurture a sound and authentic experience of Islam for those that are either converts to Islam, or interested in converting.
Topics covered in this episode:
How 'Convert Care' is a neglected duty and what we're doing about it Offering a holistic package for new converts The complex needs of new Muslims Facilitating a smooth transition of the convert into the wider Muslim community Preserving one's individual and cultural identity after converting Social events for converts Learning/classes for converts Buddying programs Offering support and well-being services
From the website: Every day in the UK, at least one person converts to Islam.The conversion is usually met with elation from the Muslim communitybut there is often little done to take care of the complex needs that they may have, or at times,a lack of understanding of what those needs are. Also: That's where we come in.With a diverse team, made up mostly of converts from diverse backgrounds,we have the knowledge and experience to offer a holistic packagein order to ensure the smooth transition of the convert into the wider Muslim community. And: Convert care in the UK is an area that has been much neglected for decades.The number of converts to Islam in the UK is growing exponentially, with two-thirds of them being women.We aim to fill the gap via a combination of innovative methods with a strong basis in the Islamic tradition and the way of the Prophet Muhammad.People who convert to Islam generally have a whole myriad of needs.We aim to fulfil and serve the needs of those new and old to Islam in a holistic manner.

Host: Gina Marie DeBarthe. Guest: Kadijah Michelle.
Today's guest is Kadijah. In this episode we discuss:
Information on how she had been involved in her Catholic faith. Her upbringing in the Catholic church. Difficulties with some of the practices in the Catholic church. How she learned about the doctrine changes in the Catholic church over time. When she realized her disbelief in her Catholic faith, she discusses how this impacted her and her values. How she first learned about Islam through her religion class in high school. Her first encounter with Muslims. Her first visit to her local Masjid. How she was able to further learn about Islam through reading and asking questions of other Muslims. Her shahadah and her first Ramadan. The process of learning about Islam and how knowledge in Islam is an ongoing process. How difficult it was to learn to pray and how few other Muslims she initially encountered. Receiving advice from those who may not have knowledge versus those who do. Work/life balance. Building an Islamic library to increase knowledge. Wearing and not wearing the hijab, and the reasons to wear hijab. Judging others and the 'Haram Police'.
This is what Kadijah says: My name is Kadijah, but I was born Michelle Kastriba. I converted the day before Ramadan in 2004 when I was 24 years old, and I will be 41 in a couple months. I grew up as an Army Brat. I was born on a Military Installation in West Germany (it was still the Cold War), and moved frequently between the U.S. and Europe as a child until my father retired from the Army and we settled in Pennsylvania in 1995. For several years, I was a pharmacy technician until I decided to go to college to pursue a degree in Economics, and I am currently a Junior at Penn State. I am also a proud and happy homemaker. I am an avid reader, and I love crochet. I am extremely passionate about volunteering and also empowering women. Most of my volunteering has been fundraising activities for Muslim organization including several years that organized and led many campaigns for my local Islamic School. Through the years, I have been asked by different groups in the Harrisburg, PA area to speak about my experiences as a Muslim including a panel at the Harrisburg Masjid and also at Harrisburg Area Community College. Lately, though, I have stepped back from volunteering and fundraising to focus on gaining knowledge. My focus now is to become an Islamic Educator for Women. I believe we desperately need them. I think what is most important about my experience is that I was born and raised Catholic. Even though I went to Church and Catholic school, I always felt something wasn't right, and I would pray for God to guide me. I grew in a military household at the end of the Cold War and the beginning of the War on Terror. Before I became a Muslim, my family and I had a very negative opinion of Islam and it's followers because that was the culture that we were exposed to. Then I started working as a clerk with two wonderful Muslims, and I started learning that Islam is not what happened on September 11, but so much more...it was the answer to my prayers. Alhumdilillah. Links on how to pray that Kadijah used: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6CF3DTTWRC6B3KBN0rCbwQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F78eFQ_Nw-Y

I was born and labeled as Egyptian Muslim who grew up in a land they labeled as the United States. From there I became agnostic, then an atheist, then a Buddhist to finally finding the true way of the Creator - gaining understanding that there are no labels of division. Let us learn the differences in languages to understand deeper meaning by doing the self work. Welcome to my journey of discovering the path and what I find to be the middle ground, living in 2020 oppression free. Going through life with the laws of the Creator, and taking advice from the previous wise men who came with books from God to guide humanity. There are no labels for God's way of life except submission. I am a son of Adam who sins, but doing my best to live according to the way in 2020 with all the technology. Will you join me on my journey fellow traveler? Oh son and daughter of Eve, will you detach from a world you are surely going to leave? Join me on this blessed journey.

The very short answer to how to be a happy Muslim insha'allah Why I wrote this book and how to use this book Ways to develop a strong personal relationship with Allah Make the decision that you genuinely want to be a happy Muslim (and decide on what being a happy Muslim means) Regularly perform the 5 pillars of Islam Send abundant blessings and prayers upon the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) Islam and the law of attraction How to always feel content no matter what problems you are facing (and it's OK to always feel content) Remember to be grateful, remember to learn, remember to hope Train yourself to always stay calm as your base feeling. (calm - or inner peace - is your base feeling from which you feel joy and other positive feelings.) Think about what you want rather than about what you don't want, and act from thoughts of what you want Learn to listen to your intuition and to become more inner-directed Either speak good or keep silent Be yourself How to cope with traumatic past experiences The health chapter: exercise, vitamin d3, coconut oil, unprocessed foods, 'oil pulling', and how I lost 30 pounds Remember: this life is not the life where you get everything you want When you have a negative thought, look that negative thought square in the eye and then choose the thought you want to have Review this list of common false beliefs Volunteer Do things that make you feel happy About forgiving others How to be more self-confident

Host: Crystal Joseph. Guest: Khadija Kimchi.
Known online as 'Khadija Kimchi'; Khadija is an ethnically Chinese, Canadian-born revert to Islam of 10 years. Her call to Islam began in 2011 as she describes her time up until that point as a life 'left lacking'. In the pen-ultimate year before her conversion she recalls the fruition of the innate questions which reside in all of us such as:
What is the meaning of life? What is my higher purpose? (Because this isn't it!)
Unaided and unfulfilled in the answer to these questions led her to reckless behaviour under the guise of having fun. Khadija's unwitting search for the truth took an unexpected turn when she witnessed a Muslim praying for the first time. As time passed, Khadija found herself nourished by the fundamental framework of Islam. Consequently, inspiring and admirable qualities such as empathy, understanding and being a beacon of support were given space to blossom. She now provides just that to other sisters through her online platform and community 'The Camellias Bloom Podcast'. Was she always a Muslim? About Khadija:
Converted in 2011, that's 10 years ago From Toronto, Canada Currently lives in the Middle East She's a writer, personal trainer and social media influencer Her hobbies and interests include blogging, podcast, painting, crochet and community outreach Loves helping out the community, mainly sisters
Khadija currently hosts her own podcast and is creating a community just for new Muslim sisters and convert sisters because it is a much-needed platform where we can have support from one another without judgements and with empathy. This allows sisters to know they are not alone on their journey to Allah. https://thecamelliasbloompodcast.podbean.com/ The Camellias Bloom is a community garden for convert/revert sisters all around the globe to bloom and blossom beautifully into the religion.

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Sheikha Maryam Kabeer Faye.
People who stay in one place (and don't travel) find it harder to absorb the signs of God in this world. That makes it harder to find what you're yearning for. Sheikha Maryam Kabeer Faye is a traveler, seeking the One, seeking the Truth. She'll never stop traveling. We consider Maryam the mother of the converts on this podcast.
She converted 45 years ago in 1975. Join Maryam as she explains her journey through 10,000 veils and her journey to Islam.
She talks about her travels to places like Napal, India, Afganistan, Palistine, Africa, Sri Lanka, Iran and the USA and about the people she met and how they influenced her. Maryam grew up in a liberal Jewish family in Hollywood, USA.
She was an actress at the age of five. When acting in a theatre company at the age of twelve she was given a painted scroll of an ancient wanderer.
On the scroll were the words: 'Seek and The Truth Shall Make You Free.' So this is what she did. Maryam documented her travels into a book. The book is called 'Journey Through Ten Thousand Veils, the Alchemy of Transformation on the Sufi Path.' Sit back, relax and enjoy. This is an interesting journey. It should inspire you to start yours too and to 'let go of your existence'.

Today's guest is Kenny Bomer.
About Kenny:
He is an author, public speaker and debater. Converted to Islam in 1987, 34 years ago, at the age of 17. He is now 49 years old. Lives in Houston, Texas in the United States. Works as an inspector for the American Petroleum Institute. Former hip hop artist - signed two record deals, 1986, 2000.
Kenny is the author of the book:
Author of CONSIDER ISLAM: Disproving the Patriots of Propaganda https://untoislam.com/consider-islam
Kenny is working on two books:
Everything Is A Test - Truth Is Made Clear From Falsehood You Might Be An Islamophob If
From Kenny's website: kennybomer.com Both factual evidence and erroneous information are more readily available in today's world than ever before in history. Many people have allowed the use of propaganda and thirty-second soundbites to mold their views about Islam and Prophet Muhammed (peace and blessings upon him) without their doing any form of legitimate study or research for themselves. Author Kenny Bomer (Mujahid Islam) addresses this situation head-on in detailed chapters which shed light on the use of propaganda to attack various groups throughout history. Bomer calls the reader's attention to those tactics, which have been studied and perfected, to tarnish people's views of Islam. Bomer addresses misconceptions in detail, asking the reader to consider what Islam is, while rejecting what Islam is not.

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Cedric Du Peloux.
This is a convert story about Cedric Du Peloux De Praron. He describes the story like this: What happened is that my father separated with my mother when he became Muslim. My mother is not Muslim and I grew up with her. I went on holiday when I was 8 years old and spent some time with my father and that's when faith in Islam entered my heart. Then I went back to my mum until I was 14 years old. In my heart I felt I was Muslim even if I didn't know much about Islam. Then I went on to live with my father for a few years and decided to learn and practice Islam. I consider myself more like a revert as I chose to be Muslim at a certain point. I grew up pretty much as a non Muslim and also because Islam was not part of my culture back then. I'm definitely closer to a Westerner than to someone that grew up in Islam. But at the same time I'm not your typical revert. I've learned so much throughout this journey that I make sure to share my knowledge within the youth of my community when I get a chance. About Cedric:
38 years old Converted in 1996, that's 24 years ago From France, born in Paris, Mother is French native Caucasian Father was from a French West Indies island called 'Guadeloupe' Has lived in Melbourne Australia since 2012 Works in the IT field as an Application Operation Engineer Huge basketball fan Very into spiritual readings especially about tassawuf, tazkiya and hagiographies Enjoys different writings about the history and state of the Muslim world
He also says: I'm passionate about giving dawah at any chance I can and also helping the less fortunates whether it is through donation or physical assistance but my main area of expertise are marriage and relationship and also helping Westerner new reverts to make sense of their Islam as it can sometime be challenging for people that were born Muslim and non Westerner to understand where a revert is coming from.

Host: Christen Amer. Guest: Nawal.

We explore how this dynamic radically shifted from the superstition with which medieval Christianity viewed and interacted with science and how that in turn changed the world. Learn how becoming a Muslim has made seeking knowledge part of your faith and how doing so can strengthen your mind, body and your deen (religion) inshallah (God willing)!

Host: Gina Marie DeBarthe. Guest: Anthony Stone.
In this episode, Anthony tells his incredible story of how he converted/reverted to Islam.
Anthony is 21 years old and lives in Arizona. He recently converted 1-2 weeks before this interview.
Due to medical conditions, and the need for 24/7 care, he struggled with converting. He desired strongly to convert but was afraid that his family would disown him and leave him without care. With the help of a Muslim woman, Lina, he was finally able to take his shahada. He said: "She told me that if my family is that intolerant and if I would like, I could come live with her and her husband and she would be my 24/7 nurse." "I was shocked when she offered this and she helped me take shahada as my family was walking in, to see if I needed help with anything, but right after I took shahada I could see the disappointed look on my family's faces and they just walked out." In this episode he talks about:
How his family is very intolerant of Islam and Muslims. How he wanted to take the Shahadah but was worried about the reaction of his family. His friends in the Lebanese community and how he learned Arabic form them. His conversion to the Maronite Catholic Church. How he moved to Assisted Living to help him deal with his medical conditions.
Further, we reviewed how he met the Pope, after traveling to Italy. He discussed how he met Lina and how she was able to give him more information on Islam. He recounted the story of taking his shahada. We discussed the kindness and generosity of Lina and her family, as they provided him a home and 24/7 care after his family cut contact with him. We further explored how he learned more about the oneness of Allah and compared that to what he had learned as a Christian. He mentioned how the recitation of the Quran soothes and comforts him during some of his more difficult and painful procedures. He also reveals how the five daily prayers have not only increased his spiritual strength, but also his physical strength. He also gives his advice to those considering Islam.

Host: Christen Amer. Guest: Zakaria.
In this episode we speak with Zakaria. He is a French Native who currently teaches French via frenchisforyou.com. He is involved in translating tafsir (Explanation of the Quran) into the French language amongst other things. Zakaria grew up amongst atheist views and antagonism towards religion under the guise of "Lacitee" Learn how listening to his inner voice and following the path to truth and knowledge eventually led him to Islam. After becoming Muslim, he made the bold decision to move to Egypt in the pursuit of being closer to Allah and Muslims. In a world full of chaos and pain, Mr.Zakaria aims to share hope and light. May his wisdom benefit you. About Zakaria:
He is French but has lived in Egypt for the last 16 years His mother was a native French woman His father is French as well, but has Chinese origins and was born in Tahiti (a French island in the Pacific Ocean) the capital of French Polynesia He converted to Islam 18 years ago in 2002 Two years later he left France to live among Muslims He lives in Cairo He is 51, married and has 3 daughters
From Zakaria's bio: As for my work, I am originally an English teacher. I graduated from a French university in 1994. When I came to Egypt I was blessed to work for the Islamic website Islamweb for 11 years. I worked there mainly as the proofreader of the French speaking team. I also did translating, and I was supervisor of the team for some time. Since I reverted it took me some years to finally understand the huge gap there is between the teachings of our Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam and the way Muslims behave nowadays. Since work at Islamweb finished I haven't had a stable job: I have done different things: I have been teaching French and English, I have done proofreading, website content writing, studio recording, I translated 2 Islamic books. The last one was an 'Naba al Adhim' by Sheikh Muhammad Draz an Egyptian scholar from al Azhar university . In sha Allah it will be published and distributed free of charge by the website tafsir.net. It's a wonderful book where Sheikh Draz demonstrates that the Qur'an cannot but have been written by Allah. I also have a website called 'French Is For You', this is a website to teach French to English speakers. frenchisforyou.com https://frenchisforyou.com/

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Zuhair Girach.
In this episode we discuss alternative healing and Islam. Zuhair Girach is the founder of Aafiyah Healing. He calls it 'The home of holistic health and wellbeing.' There they look for underlying emotional root problems of ailments and treat them with alternative healing methods. Some methods and topics he teaches includes:
The realm of energy and the different forces Traditional healing methods Channeling energy naturally Grounding Self healing Healing others Distant healing Tapping Positive affirmations Lifestyle changes Energy meridians and energy centres Emotions and trauma Rapid trauma release Trauma identification and release
In this episode Zuhair talks about:
How his programs facilitate and ensure a healing journey for those enrolled. How his programs combine Islamic perspectives and alternative healing methods. How Western concepts can sometimes conflict with Islamic Teachings. Cures that are unique to Islam like the Quran plus others. How his programs can help people to convert to Islam (especially people suffering from problems). 'Mind, body and soul' and how they benefit by one becoming Muslim. Things to look out for after converting to Islam, for example: burnout, marriages gone wrong, and fitting in with new Muslim communities. The demystifying of mysticism. General advice about converting to Islam.
Contact Zuhair here: www.aafiyahhealing.com www.youtube.com/aafiyahhealing healing@mindhorizon.org The following is the testimonial that Zuhair read in the episode: This year has been a major year for me and my family. I have been able to heal so much in and around myself and my family is now thriving again. We are a unit now. I am so grateful that God brought me to Aafiyah Healing because if it wasn't for the work that Zuhair Girach has done over the last 20 years on creating 'Aafiyah Healing' I would of been lost in the abyss. Those of you who are spiritual practitioners or into the sciences, this is a must workshop because it is focused on the Almighty. If I had not done this workshop, I wouldn't have been able to use my own expertise correctly to be able to protect myself and my family spiritually. I've kind of been able to 'halalify' my practices on a fundamental level and demystify mysticism (I guess). I have shared my journey socially to raise awareness of spiritual warfare and how black magic can affect us. If you have resonated with any part of my journey, then I would definitely recommend these workshops that will clarify about how to apply the practices in day to day life according to the Quran and Sunnah. Credit where it's due, doing the workshop has allowed me to link God with my gifts that I have always been shunned for, we all have a gift, it's how we use them that count - intentions create our reality. Rebecca (a convert to Islam)

Host: Crystal Joseph. Guest: Birgitte Primdal Svenningsen.
Danish by origin, Brigitte grew up in what she describes as a social and cultural climate which ridicules the concept of religion. She denotes how Islam is still very much shrouded in mystery and misconceptions in her home town with the migrant community still remaining relatively small. She reminisces on the great upbringing she had and describes her gratitude and how it shaped her set of personal and morals to date. This in turn helped her to flourish as a better Muslim and to be an asset to the community. Whilst away volunteering in Costa Rica she returned home to a great surprise. Her mother had become Muslim! With her curiosity and spiritually peaked - she began taking baby steps towards realising a whole new life for herself. About Birgitte:

Host: Crystal Joseph. Guest: Amina Karine Kermous.
An inquisitive and sparky young child, Amina spent her childhood in a migrant dense, small region of France. Despite large exposure to the various cultures of the Muslim community, Islam remained a widely misunderstood and disdained concept amongst the non-muslims she knew. As much as she possibly could, Amina tried to get to grips with her own religion. While comfortable with the concept of creationism, gaping holes to some of the biggest questions of our existence and spiritual guidance proved too much for her logic to reconcile. During her adolescence she eagerly seized the opportunity to travel to a nearby city in order to continue with her studies. She embraced Islam there and describes her path of becoming Muslim as she navigated her way through intellectual, cultural, spiritual and emotional struggles while consciously striving to perfect her identity as a Muslim. 20 years later and now living in the United Kingdom, what does she cite as her life's biggest lessons? About Amina:
Converted in 1995 (25 years ago) 45 years old From France Currently living in London She is a wellness and nutrition coach Hobbies and interests include parenting, studying dean, Arabic, and healthy nutrition She is passionate about almost everything, she loves life

Host: Crystal Joseph. Guest: Lara Jennings.
In this episode Lara Jennings gives a raw and detailed account of the transition from being raised in a German Atheist/Catholic dominated society which held unforgiving views of Islam to a practicing and successful Muslim woman without sacrificing who she was as a person. 'Young and free' at 19, Lara contemplated what may be waiting for her over the horizon and the prospect of a daunting end for her rash, fast-past lifestyle. Drawing upon her love for knowledge and ability to work hard, she decidedly forged a new path. However it wasn't all smooth-sailing. Whilst spending time with her friends during a trip to Morocco the call to prayer sounded. She witnessed her new friends pray for the first time. The mystery of Islam and what it means to be a Muslim had then shattered. Lara immediately became a Muslim. About Lara:
Converted in 2009, 11 years ago 31 years old Born in Germany Lives in United Kingdom Lara use to be social worker, politician, marketer, studied Philosophy and Sociology She founded own initiative last Ramadan called MyMoon which just has been launched a few days ago She enjoys running, boxing, drawing, singing, volunteering, traveling, psychology, and graphic design Social justice is the main reason she founded her initiative MyMoon

Host: Gina Marie DeBarthe. Guest: Victoria Bermudez.
This is a short and inspirational story where Victoria discusses her conversion to Islam. She talks about:
Before she became Muslim, she studied with different teachers about Islam. Converting was hard because of cultural differences. Her family was shocked at first, but then supportive. She didn't agree with Catholicism but didn't know what religion she wanted to convert to. She went to Canada where she met a hijabi, who she deeply respected. She also met a couple from Yemen who encouraged her to revert. They said that "God has you in his radar." But she She didn't think that God knew about her. After returning home she did more research on Islam. She became friends with a Muslim on Instagram. Islamic theology made sense to her. Islamic prayers brought her peace. She felt that she was healing her relationship with God. She converted over the internet with her teacher's mentor. She deals with some prejudice in her small town. People have tried to pull off her hijab. She got a lot of marriage proposals. She also got a lot of misinformation. She felt a great sense of relief after her conversion. She is from a small town in Mexico called Monterrey.

Host: Crystal Joseph. Guest: Amanda Rickwood.
A self-professed 'larger than life' character. Amanda grew up as an atheist in Hampshire, UK in the 80's with little to no exposure to Islam. Inquisitive by nature, Amanda was grateful to her family for encouraging curiosity and appreciation of the world around her from a young age. As she navigated adolescence and young adulthood, Amanda depicts her life growing as increasingly anxiety fueled and disconnected from those around her yet with an innate need to connect with the divine. It was during her travels to Qatar and Egypt in which she felt in a process of naturally becoming. Lovingly overcome by the call to Allah. She found the impetus to go back to basics and begin a whole new journey laced with unprecedented knowledge, guidance and unconditional self love. Quick facts about Amanda:
Converted in 2017 3 years since converting 52 years old Comes from UK Primary school teacher Likes staying healthy - body and mind, learning about Islam and developing her YouTube channel Passionate about leading a good Islamic life and leading through example/action

Host: Crystal Joseph. Guest: Ellen Osman.
Growing up, Ellen described herself as a practicing Catholic in a fully practicing Catholic family. Much later down the line after 10 years in an inter-faith marriage her curiosity was piqued when she began to notice the differences that came as a product of each lifestyle, in particular, regarding the upbringing of children. Around the same time her husband started to draw closer to his own religion, Islam. Determined not to lose her volition, Ellen decided to follow suite. Subsequently Ellen found herself questioning the ideals she devoutly knew to be true. She recalls a specific incident in the Catholic church she experienced upon rejoining. The declaration of faith which she had known by heart since a young child - had changed! Horrified, she set herself upon a learning journey only to be pleasantly surprised each time she challenged her preconceptions about the words of the Quran and the intricacies of Islamic belief. So much so did her new found love and trust for Islam begin to grow. Her husband and her relocated their family to Egypt with the intention of pursuing an Islamic lifestyle and learning Arabic. She is overjoyed to be experiencing connection with God and religion again. Citing this connection and trust as the thing which makes all changes going forward easy, with understanding. Despite her love being overcome with happiness after finding Islam. Her attention has now turned to the fact that Islam has very little representation in the lives of non-Muslims. She has created her own YouTube channel depicting her lifes story in detail to provide a relatable, accessible, first hand account of what being a Muslim really is. https://untoislam.com/youtube-ellen

Host: Crystal Joseph. Guest: Michael Wood.
Like many of us examining religion left Michael feeling no closer to the complete truth or any more spiritually guided from before. Finding himself standing on the cusp of all religion entirely. Michael forged forward through adulthood knowing and believing there is a God. However still unable to practically, mentally and logically resolve the best way to live a life conducive to his belief. From an outsiders perspective Islam may look like a set of strict and infinitely nuanced rules. Mysterious or even exclusive. In spite of this Michael recalls how he dived right in simply after declaring 'There is no God except one God' and has never looked back since. So what is the appeal of Islam to the agnostic? Is it really complicated to become a Muslim?

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Chris Hainsch.
Chris is 44 years old and converted to Islam 22 years ago. He lives in Munich Germany. He is a psychological counselor and has studied economics, behavioral psychology and Islamic sciences. He grew up as a Protestant Christian but found no closeness to God. His father was always interested in all religions and God. At the age of 15 he resigned from the church to avoid the church tax. But he remained interested in religion and was searching. At the age of 21 years he went to Indonesia for work. This changed his life forever. He saw Islam from the roots. Chris was impressed by the deep belief that is rooted in the life of the Muslims. One of the reasons he converted was because of the direct connection to God Islam offers. He said he didn't take a new religion but he completed his religion. He found inner peace. https://www.muslimcoach.org/english/about-muslim-coach/

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Christen Amer.
Christen Amer converted in 2003, that was 17 years ago. She is from Rhode Island near New York. She is a wife and a mother. An ESL English teacher and a property manager. From an early age, Christianity didn't fit with her nature. At the age of 13-14 she told her mother that she could not keep going to church. Christen tells us about her high-school friend who was Muslim. This lead to her reading the Quran for the first time. Then she went to Egypt and was exposed to Islam further and met some amazing people. Christen then became Muslim in Egypt. The said that listening to the Quran 'pierced her heart'. Christen also shares some of her spiritual experiences after she became Muslim which includes nearly freezing to death on a mountain hike.
Christen's final advice: Get peace by turning to the Quran Ask God to guide you to what is best (regardless of the outcome) Cannot be denied if God is on your side Need a sincer intention not with your ego in mind Trust In God

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Abdullah.
Abdullah is a secondary school Maths teacher. He is from London and originally from Ireland. He converted to Islam 2 weeks ago. He had been practising Islam for a few months before he decided to convert. He was doing the Islamic prayer and even tried fasting all before converting. Abdullah grew up agnostic and never really had a religious inclination. He always felt there was a gap in his life. Then he met a Muslim and started talking about Islam and God. This changed his life forever.
In this episode Abdullah talks about:
How he converted to Islam when he was in lockdown by himself in his own home Learning to do the Islamic prayer before he converted The spirituality he gained through the prayer, which in turn helped him to convert How his parents will feel when he breaks the news
His final advice:
Natural disposition (fitra) is built into all of us to be a good person - your own self is denying you from doing it Search out the answers - Islam gives all the answers Try to start practising before you convert to see if you like it Make sure your intention is right before you convert - that you are doing it for God Don't wait too long to do it, if you have the faith in your heart then do it as soon as possible

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Crystal Joseph.
Crystal Joseph always grew up knowing God. At a young age (as early as 10 years old) her feelings towards the church changed. She started to follow her gut instinct that it was all wrong. Finally she felt that Christianity was a block between her and her creator. After leaving the church she went through a stage of conforming to society. This included not knowing an answer to the questions of faith and not seeking one either. Going through this she felt drained. Crystal tried Buddhism and meditation while still believing in God. She stated that in England people tend to mix and match and try to make their own answers to questions about God as you go along. She needed something. The turning point for her was at the age of 21, she visited Egypt. She heard the Quran for the first time and felt like this was real life. A visit to Mt Sinai was one of her first spiritual experiences of Islam. At the same time she was learning about the scientific proofs in the Quran. Crystal was getting black and white answers to all her questions. In this episode Crystal also tells us about her workshop named "Surviving and Thriving - My First Year after Shahada". It is a free interactive workshop for reverts to help them through their first year of Islam. She hopes to launch it soon this year. We will keep you posted here for further details.

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Gina.
Gina shares the truth about Islam and the reason why the Quran is misunderstood. She explains why you should never believe what you hear on the media and news. This is an amazing story told by a woman who is not yet officially Muslim. Gina is 59 years old and lives in rural USA Mid West (2020). She says that growing up here, there are no other choices in religion, we are just born Christian with no choice. Gina became disillusioned with the Christian faith when it started being used as a tool for hate around 2016, stirring up hatred against Muslims and Islam. With the rising of Donald Trump she looked at all faiths but decided Islam was the truth. She got some leaflets from Islamic outreach workers at a festival. Gina started reading these leaflets about Islam and it was logical and made sense to her. Then she started reading the Quran and realised that the Quran was misunderstood by her people due to Islamophobia and that people were saying disparaging things about it. Gina was also amazed about the big bang theory in the Quran, and that the virgin birth and Jesus are also mentioned there. After this she started giving out copies of the Quran and giving talks on what Islam the Quran really are. She started visiting Muslims and was amazed by the people and the way they treated her and the way they acted. They had kindness and sense of community, the way they took care of each other and the joy that they have and their happiness. She said that they were the kindest people she has ever met. Gina is waiting for her husband to agree to convert before she makes an official conversion with him. She believes he will make the decision to convert in good time.

Host: Adee Simon Macdowell. Guest: Grace Song.
Grace Song had always believed in God and that there was a higher power watching her and that knew everything about what she was thinking. She started thinking about how lost she was in life and that maybe following a religion could help her. She began to start talking to God. She wanted to understand the meaning of life. As she researched about Islam she was shocked to see how everything was intuitive to her. She began to overcome the pre-conceived notions she had about Muslims. Thinking "what's the catch, there must be something that I must be missing, because if this is what Islam really is, then why are so many people saying bad things about Islam"
