A CALL TO EMBRACE ISLAM



Assalamualaikum,

This is a humble call to readers of this blog who are not yet Muslims. Me,PakSu Joe hereby extend my invitation to you to embrace Islam. It is easy and simple to embrace Islam. All you have to do is to utter these verses:

لا إله إلا الله
Transliteration: La ila ha illal lah
Translation: There is no God worthy of worship but Allah
محمد رسول الله

Transliteration: Muhammadur Rasullullah
Translation: Muhammad is the Mesenger of Allah

To formalise the verses, a prefix is usually added:

أشهد أنلا إله إلا الله
Transliteration: Asyhadu al la ila ha illallah
Translation: I bear witness that there no god worthy of worship but Allah
أشهد أنمحمد رسول الله

Transliteration: Asyhadu anna Muhammadur rasulullah
Translation: Ibear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah

When you and utter those verses with your full conscience and submission, then you become a Muslim.

What do I promise you in return? I don't promise you anything. But Allah promises you heaven or Jannah in Arabic.

Allah's promise is immortalised in these verses of the Qur'an:
إِنَّالَّذِينَآمَنُواوَعَمِلُواالصَّالِحَاتِأُوْلَئِكَهُمْ خَيْرُالْبَرِيَّةِ
Those who have faith
And do the righteous deeds
They are the best
Of creatures
(Al Qur'an 98:7)

جَزَاؤُهُمْعِندَرَبِّهِمْجَنَّاتُ عَدْنٍتَجْرِي مِنتَحْتِهَاالْأَنْهَارُخَالِدِينَفِيهَاأَبَدًارَّضِيَاللَّهُعَنْهُمْوَرَضُواعَنْهُذَلِكَلِمَنْخَشِيَرَبَّهُ
The reward is with Allah
Gardens of Eternity
Beneath which rivers flow
They will dwell therein
For ever; Allah well pleased
With them, and they with Him;
All this for such as
Fear their Lord and Cherisher
(Al Qur'an 98:8)

I hope this posting descends to the bottom of your hearts, and may be granted to you.
