    The Story Of A Jew Who Islamized MillionsOf People

    Rab al- khir 21, 1433 A.H , Thursday,

    March 15, 2012

    Somewhere in France around fifty years ago, there wasa 50-year-old Turkish man, named Ibrahim. He was an

    old man who sold foods in a food store. The store was locatedin an apartment where one of its occupants was a Jewishfamily who had a 7 year old son named 'Jad'.

    Jad the Jewish child came to the shop which Ibrahim operatedalmost every day to buy household needs. Every time he

    wanted to leave the shop and he thought that Ibrahim wasoff guard Jad always took a piece of chocolate belonging toIbrahim without his permission.

    One day after shopping, Jad forgot to take a piece ofchocolate before going out of the shop, then all of a sudden,Ibrahim called him and told him that he had forgotten to takea piece of chocolate as usual. Jad was shocked, because hethought Ibrahim was not aware of what he did all these time.He immediately apologized and was afraid that Ibrahim wouldreport about his actions to his parents.

    Ibrahim then answered: "Never mind, what's important is thatyou promise not to take anything without permission, andany time you want to get out of here, take a piece ofchocolate, it is all yours!"Jad happily agreed.

    Time passed, and the years changed, and the Muslim Ibrahimnow became just like a father and best friend to Jad, the

    Jewish kid.

    It had become a habit for Jad when facing a problem that hewould always came to Ibrahim for consultation. And everytime Jad finished telling his story, Ibrahim always took out abook from the drawer, gave it to Jad and then told him toopen it at random. After Jad had opened it, Ibrahim then read

    two sheets thereof, closed it and started giving advices andsolutions to Jad's problems.

    Some years had passed and such were the days spent by Jadwith Ibrahim, an old Turkish Muslim and not highly educated.

    14 years passed by, now Jad had become a gallant youngman who was 24 years old then, while Ibrahim at that timewas 67 years old.

    Ibrahim eventually died, but before he died, he had kept abox which he entrusted to his children, where a book wasplaced in that box which he always read every time Jad had aconsultation with him. Ibrahim willed so that his children

    would give the book as a gift to Jad, a Jewish youth.

    Jad only found out about the death of Ibrahim when his sonconveyed the will to give a box to Jad. Jad then felt shakenand very sad with the news, because Ibrahim was the onewho, all these while, gave the solutions to all his problems,and Ibrahim was the only true friend for him.

    Days passed, every time struck by problems, Jad alwaysremembered Ibrahim. Now he just left behind a box. The box

    that he had always opened and kept inside it was a bookwhich Ibrahim used to read often every time he came to him.

    Jad then tried to open the pages of the book, but the bookcontains writings in Arabic, whereas he could not read it.

    Then he went to one of his friends who was a Tunisian andasked him to read two sheets from the book. Exactly as wasthe custom of Ibrahim before, who always asked him to openthe book at random when he came for a consultation.

    That Tunisian friend then read and explained the meaning ofthe two sheets that he had showed. And apparently, whatwas read by his friend, precisely nailed into the problemfaced by Jad at that time. Then Jad told about the problemthat he was facing, and his Tunisian friend gave a solutionaccording to what he read from the book in question.

    Jad was stunned and in shock, then with full of curiosity heasked: "What is this book?!"

    He answered: "This is Al-Qur'an, the Holy Book of theMuslims!"

    Jad was a bit in disbelief, at the same time felt amazed.

    And then Jad asked again: "How to be a Muslim?"

    His friend answered: "By uttering the Shahadah and followingthe Shari'ah!"

    After that, and without a feeling of doubt, Jad then uttered

    the Shahadah, thus he now became a Muslim!

    Jadullah A Muslim

    Now Jad had already become a Muslim, and then he changedhis name to Jadullah Al-Qur'ani as an expression of reverencefor the Qur'an that is so special and able to answer all his lifeproblems over the years. And since then, he had decided tospend the rest of his life to be at the service of spreading theteachings of the Qur'an.

    Jadullah then began to study the Qur'an, as well asunderstanding its contents, continued by doing da'wah inEurope to the point that he succeeded in converting to Islamsix thousands Jews and Christians.

    One day, Jadullah opened up the pages of the Qur'an whichwas a gift from Ibrahim. Suddenly he found a sheet bearingthe world map. When his eyes were fixed on the image of theAfrican continent, and appeared on it was an inscribed

    signature of Ibrahim and under that signature was written theverse:

    )) ...!!))

    "Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and goodinstruction!!..." (QS. An-Nahl; 125)

    He was then convinced that this was a will from Ibrahim andhe resolved to carry it out.

    After some time, Jadullah left Europe and went to do da'wah inthe African countries, including Kenya, southern part of Sudan(where a majority of its populations are Christian), Uganda, aswell as the surrounding countries. Jadullah managed to convertmore than 6,000,000 people from the tribe of Zolo, this is fromone tribe alone, not to mention the other tribes.

    End of Jadullah's Life

    Jadullah Al-Qur'ani, a genuine Muslim, an real da'ie, spent the 30years of his age, since his conversion to Islam, to carry

    out da'wah in the arid African countries and managed to convertmillions of people.

    Jadullah died in 2003 where had been ill earlier. At that time hewas 45 years old and he died in times of doing da'wah.

    The Story Has Not Finished

    The mother of Jadullah Al-Qur'ani was a fanatic Jew, she was aneducated woman and a lecturer in one of the higher institutions.

    Her mother only converted to Islam in 2005, two years afterJadullah had died, i.e. at 70 years of age.

    The mother narrated that when her son was still alive shespent 30 years doing her utmost to make her son return to

    Judaism by various ways, with all her experience, establishmentof knowledge and ability, however, she could not influence herson to return to Judaism. Whereas Ibrahim, an old anduneducated Muslim, was able to soften his heart to embraceIslam, this is because Islam is the only true religion.

    Then the question is : "Why did Jad the Jewish child embraceIslam?"

    Jadullah Al-Qur'ani told that Ibrahim, whom he knew for 17years, never called him with words: "Hey kuffar!" or "Hey

    Jew!" in fact Ibrahim never even said: "Come into the religion of

    4

    5/7

    Islam!"

    Imagine, for 17 years, Ibrahim never even once taught himabout religion, about Islam or about Judaism. A simple Muslimelder never invited him to discuss about religious issues. But heknew how to lead the heart of a child, so as to be bound withthe akhlaq of Al-Quran.

    And then from the testimony of Dr. Safwat Hijazi (one of thefamous Egyptian da'ies) who at one time had joined a seminar inLondon in discussing about the problem of Darfur, as well as thesolution to handling the Christianization, where he met with theleader of one of the tribes of Zolo. When asked if he convertedto Islam through Jadullah Al-Qurani, he asnwered; No! But he

    embraced Islam through someone who has been Islamized byJadullah Al-Qur'ani.

    Subhanallah, How many more people will convert to Islamthrough the people who have been Islamized by Jadullah Al-Qurani. And Jadullah Al-Qur'ani himself embraced Islam throughthe hand of an old and uneducated Turkish Muslim man, but washaving an akhlaq that is sublime and pure.

    Such was the story about Jadullah Al-Qur'ani, this is a true story

    that this writer obtained and then translated from the journalofAlmarhum (the late) Sheikh Imad Iffat who is nicknamed as"The Sheikh of the Egyptian Revolutionaries". He wasan ulama' of Al-Azhar and a member of the Fatwa Institution ofEgypt, who was shot shaheed (insha Allah) in an incident inCairo on Friday, 16th December 2011.

    This true story deserves to be reflected collectively by us in thetimes offitnah like today. At a time when a lot of people do notheed the way of the Qur'ani Da'wah anymore. Easily

    declare kafir, well-versed in reviling, claiming others to havegone astray, pronouncing them as bid'ah, cursing,spreading fitnah, whereas they are fellow Muslims.

    In the past, our da'ies had struggled tooth and nail tospread Tawheed and Islamize many non-Muslims, but whytoday, the people who are already Muslim are declared

    as kafirinstead and accused ofshirk? Aren't we obliged to judgesomething on what is visible only? While in the matterofbatin (inner things) let Allah judge it afterward. We are notcommanded at all to split the breast of every mankind so as toknow the level ofiman owned by everyone.

    Let's reflect again on surahThaha verse 44 i.e. thecommandment of Allah SWT to Prophet Musa and Harun'alaihimassalam when they would go out to conduct da'wah onFir'aun. Allah says:

    )) ))

    "And speak to him with gentle speech that perhaps he may bereminded or fear [Allah]."

    Imagine, Fir'aun who was clearly kafir la'natullah, but at thetime ofda'wah on such a person we still have to use gentlewords. So do we, who are living in today's world more Islamicthan Prophet Musa and Prophet Harun? Or is there anyone todaywho is more kafirthan Fir'aun that even the Qur'an recordshis kufruntil today? What is then the reason for us to notuse da'wah with the method of Al-Qur'an? Namelywith Hikmah (Wisdom), good Advices and Discussions with

    strong arguments, but remained polite and mannered?

    Therefore, what we need to take heed in da'wah is that, whatshould we do so that this truth of Islam can be easily conveyed?Due to that, if now we find someone who is kafir, it is possiblethat at the end of his life, Allah would give hidayah to him sothat he will convert to Islam. Hadn't Umar bin Khattab also beenhostile towards Rasulullah in the beginning? Yet, Allah willedotherwise, thus Umar then received hidayah and eventuallyembraced Islam. So if now there is someone who is Muslim, it

    could be that at the end of his life, Allah would removethe hidayah from him so that he dies in the stateofkafir. Na'udzubillah tsumma Na'udzubillahi min Dzalik.

    For behold, the first sin committed by Iblis is arrogance andhaughtiness, as well as feeling the self holier so much so that herefused to receive Allah's truth by prostrating (due to respect) to

    Prophet Adam 'alaihissalam. Due to that, it could be that Allahwould remove the hidayah from a Muslim with a high heart(prideful) and then give it to a non-Muslim with a humble heart.Nothing is impossible for Allah!

    Let us preserve this aqeedah of Islam that we are embracing,and don't ever sneer or undermine the aqeedah of others whohave also embraced Islam, as well as professing Tawheed. Weare brothers in Islam. It is good to remind each other, mutuallyprotecting the aqeedah of fellow Muslims is better. Let usalways struggle shoulder to shoulder for the sake of good thingsonly.

    Wallahu Ta'ala A'la Wa A'lam Bis-Sawab.
