The Deen Show – A Young Russian Orthodox Christian converts to Islam

			So Daniel, he comes from an Orthodox Christian background. And can you just tell us briefly what was
it that had you finally decide that you are like after your friends? They went and they explained to
you the Muslim friends that you had, what Islam is, and they talked to you and what was it finally,
that had you so captivated that you're in here with us here, taking your Shahada.
		

			My biological father is from Cairo and he, himself is a Muslim. A lot of my friends are from Egypt.
And I feel like growing into a Russian Orthodox Church I never really aligned myself with it's the
more and more I see about Islam is more how I feel comfortable with myself. And I feel like I can
grow more of a better person if I was to allow myself who was Islam. And that was my decision for
coming to the tech bit.
		

			It's something that feels natural. And we talked and went over the six articles of faithful quickly
I'm sure they went over it. I went over with you again, the five pillars and you're taking the first
one, which is a testimony of faith. Are you ready then? All right, I'm gonna go ahead. And Arabic or
English first, probably English, English, okay.
		

			I testify it testify that there's nothing, that there's nothing worthy of worship, worthy of worship
except Allah except Allah. And I testify and I testify that Muhammad, Muhammad peace be upon him.
Peace be upon me is the messenger of Allah is the messenger of Allah. Eyeshadow. En la ilaha illa
illa Allah, wa shadow
		

			Muhammad Rasulullah
