Dear Atheist..

Firstly I have to tell you that I am not an Islamic scholar, or an expert preacher or a trained missionary or anything of that sort. I know people don’t spend much time on this issue of faith these days, so I decided to lay it down in the simplest way..

Creator?

-yes! Because even the simplest of things has a creator.

-how can a complex being like man or even a mosquitoe came out by chance. Look around for things that was produced by chance, usually its a piece of junk..if it came out as one piece that is..

-we accept the big bang theory, but it doesn’t answer as to where the primordial gas comes from? The only explanation is there has to be a creator.. a Being, that is not confined to our dimension, space and time. A being with no beginning or end, His Being is beyond human comprehension. And One Being that fit all this description is Allah, the God of Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad peace be upon them all.

-if you said no to this, then ..

you’re saying that the complex world suddenly came out.. as in hocus pocus! Difference is.. there is not even a hocus pocus.. it just came out suddenly?! Out of nothing?!

You cant prove that the believers are wrong either

You are putting yourself at risk… that if God truly exist, you are going to be answerable to Him on the Day of Judgement.  As much as Allah promises rewards and forgiveness, there are also warnings and punishments for the disbelievers..

Why rituals..

-how we would agree for a surgery recommended by a doctor treating us. We know its gonna be painful but we believe that the doctor knows what we don’t. we do rituals because we believe that our creator knows whats best for us, it might not make sense at first, but if we believe that its gonna bring goodness,  it will!.. eventually, if not in this world, then definitely in the HereAfter..

You are a good person, you have your good values…

But you don’t believe in your creator….then where is your good values?

Its like a child who are good to everyone except his or her own mother..

A wife, who receives everything from her husband ie wealth and love, but choose to ignore him

A citizen who obeys everyones rule except the governments.

But Its difficult..

Of course! Even being a born-Muslim myself, I am still struggling to be a good muslim… so I cant imagine being at your shoes, to change your lifestyle after 50 years of living it .. it is difficult, I know, but you know what, it is possible..  with a strong will and believe!

And in this religion.. just a good intention, without even doing or achieving it yet..

Allah will reward you.. Allah looks at your effort and sincere heart..

Give yourself a chance.. and some time..
