Witnesses, will you please consider? I have been a Muslim from birth. I faithfully attended mosque from my youth up and am respected in my community. About a year ago I came in contact with members of the Christian group called Jehovah's Witnesses and asked many questions of them and their beliefs. I have found that these people are nothing like the Christians of western society, they are practicing the holy teachings of the prophet Jesus (PBUH) and are submissive to Allah by the Messiah (PBUH).
My family and I have started studying the Holy writings of the Scriptures and the Koran with gifted members of their group who have respect our Muslim community and we have come to be greatly enlightenened about their beliefs and teachings. I have on five occasions attended their church and of those five my family accompanied me on two.
I am begining to believe that these people just possibly may be the blessed of Allah.
They have explained what Jesus (PBUH) being called Son of God means and neither I or my family can deny the power of their teaching on this. Certain members of our mosque have discovered that I have been engaging Jehovah's Witnesses and attending their church service and this is causing my family and I to be viewed as unfavored by some. I do not wish this but I cannot deny my conscience as I have come to believe that this man Jesus (PBUH) is really the Son of Allah.
Do I ignore my conscience and try to continue in the way of the prophet (PBUH) or do I follow my conscience and continue to investigate these people of Allah and see where Allah leads me?
Is it possible that we have not been led to Allah's truth and the people of Jehovah may have what we are looking for? I am greatly troubled, but I must admit that I do feel a tremendous inner peace when at their church that I have not experienced at the mosque.
Brothers please, may you all have peace. I am not saying that I am leaving the mosque, I am only saying that I have been greatly enlightened by the Jehovah's Witnesses beliefs and teachings. I have a better understanding of their beliefs and can see how they are very different from Western Christian groups. Allah is merciful and I feel that it cannot be wrong to explore teachings that are in line with the prophets. I do not know everything about the people of Jehovah and they are not like Muslims except in the seriousness of their submission to Allah. I have seen in the Torah that Moses (PBUH) said Allah's name is Jehovah and I have seen that Jesus (PBUH) lived in heaven before his birth through the blessed virgin. Jesus (PBUH) could be the Mahdi we have been waiting for. In the name of Allah, the most Compassionate, the most Merciful, I only wish to be enlightened by truth. ?????? ?????
