Assalam Alaikum This is a unique story in a sense that you will read. Posted by our WHYISLAM phone volunteer Sister Sarah, It was amazing where and how islam affects life. Assalam Alaikum Husain MESSAGE: (#707) from witch craft to Islam <http://www.icna.org/cgi-bin/Forums/njf.pl?rev=707> AUTHOR: sarah DATE: Sunday, 20 May 2001, at 11:27 p.m. assalamu alaykum I wanted tos share this sisters story with you, it is a proof that no one is beyond hidaya subhana allah My name is Nicole, and I once was a Wiccan. My fiance is Muslim, and he always would talk about the greatness of Allah. He would talk, and I would cry because his words were so beautiful. But after eight months, I still ignored the message he secretly gave me. I was stubborn because I had been Wiccan for three years. I even was a teacher of my group, The Wiccan Ministry of Inner Denver. I was well on my way to being a priestess, (Highly respected queen and leader of a group of witch's that wears red underwear, LOL) and I am so young, (sixteen). Usually to be a priestess one must be at least late twenties early thirties. One day while I sat in class, all of a sudden I took of my pentacle ring, (The five pointed star with the circle around it). There was no reason I just did it. I looked at it and the truth hit me like a bomb. I was an absolute fool. My religion was nothing but glamor, and most of all, I fed an evil with my tears. Wicca claims to be innocent and simple, it is not Satanism because they have turned the sign of Satan upside-down, but if you turn the devil, shaaton, etc., any way, it is still the same. The innocent appearance took in the weak like candy, and that's how it had gotten me, I was weak. I thought I could wave a wand and make all my problems go away. Or I could dress in all black and be happy. But I wasn't, something was missing in my soul. I put the ring away. I went to my fiance and told him what had happened. He handed me The Book Of Allah. When I read The Book Of Allah, I had this wonderful peace, this great soothing, and I had never been so happy. Later that day, I buried my ring in the ground, deep, and I burned most of my Wiccan books. I kept only ones that talked about history, and the Malleus Maleficarum, (the witch's hammer, written by two Christians, and signified by pope Innocent VIII around 1484). I kept these books only for a history reference. Right now I am learning to pray, I am studying Islam, I am reading The Book Of Allah, and my life has reason, and happiness. I know what my purpose is. I think that Allah has given me time to see the Wiccan people, as it is the number three fastest growing religion. I saw them, I talked to them, I felt their sorrow, and despair, I knew how lost they were because I was one of them. I cannot see them suffer, because of a weakness. They are so sad, so lonely and I want to stop it. I know them, I know how they think, how they feel, and most of all I know their religion well. I studied Wicca for three years. I thank Allah every day for his mercy. I would like to thank all who have read through my letter. May Allah guide my footsteps, Love, Ayeshah |
