I went to the mall around a week ago and met this girl there and we gave each other our snaps. Fast forward to yesterday, she was talking about how she doesn’t like Halloween because it’s the holiday of the devil and I told her that it’s my favorite holiday and that I don’t believe in god. She told me that I should be praying or I am going to burn. I told her that I’m not going to burn.
She ghosted me.
I asked her “Out of all the religions in the world, why do you think Islam is the true religion?”
Her reply: “In my very non professional opinion-
Allah is everywhere and you can see His existence in everything and He has blessed us with belief in Him and Muhammad peace & blessings upon him
no other religion is more consistent than Islam - in my experience, “multi faith prayer rooms” are used mainly by muslims. Why? Because the religion actually calls us toward something, towards routine, towards success, towards Allah
I have never seen a Christian or a Jew in a multi faith prayer room
I dont think there are pilgrimages greater than the ones to Makka - if people didnt find peace there they wouldnt go again and again.
Allah has saved me in so many ways more than I can count or even imagine. The least I can do is believe in Him and worship Him alone.”
I asked her “How has Allah saved you?”
Her reply: “one example is the fact that me and my family were able to live in a home with heating and with food on the table without any stable source of income and before the bhajis started working)”
This was a very ridiculous and stupid answer. She also wrote 3 messages and deleted them before I could read them. This is exactly why i avoid seeing my extended family. I honestly wish i was never born into a muslim family.
