The most amazing ever happened today at Fajr time. A Jewish sister took her Shahada in a very astonishing manner.
We were all floored.
There are lessons to be learned here.
Allahu Akbar
Bismillah

On Clubhouse, I was a moderator in a room titled "Islam is the ONLY true religion".
A girl (I'll call her sister X) DMed me asking "what do you mean by it's the only true religion?".
I replied by asking her to join the panel to have a discussion with us on that.

Sister X joined the panel. We talked to her about other faiths being corrupted & how Islam isn't.
She said she believes Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, is a prophet of God.
She kept saying she wants to please God & that she'll do whatever he wants. But she was unsure.

She then told us about a dream she had many years ago that changed her. It goes as follows:
Angel-like figures in white met her. Her and these figures were walking in the dream and came to a giant podium.

The podium had a giant book on it. The pages of the book were so thin but had gold engravings of a script she wasn't familiar with at the time.
She said years later, she learned it was Arabic.

When she approached the podium with these angel-like figures, on of them told her:
RECITE
She said:
I can't
The angel then told her in a louder voice:

He then said:
Recite in the name of your lord
Who created you from a blood-clot
Who knew you from the day you were born
At this point everybody in the room was floored, including myself. I interrupted her
"Wait a minute. Are you kidding?"

She said "No. No. I swear to God that's what I saw in the dream".
I then explained to her that what the angel-like figure asked her was the same thing angel Jibreel asked the Prophet, peace be upon him, in the cave the first time he came to him.

And that what the angel-like figure asked you to recite were very similar to the first few verses of Surah 96, which are the first verses to be revealed.
I then pinned the Hadith of the beginning of revelation to the room so that she'd believe me

She found it a very strange coincidence. But she was still hesitant to take her Shahada at this point. Then another sister suggested that we open a private room just for her.
This was a brilliant suggestion for reasons to come later.

A brother told her that this a very clear sign from God and that she'd be ignoring it if she didn't act upon it.
We then opened a private room with sister X, that brother, myself and the sister who had that suggestion.

In the private room, she told us that some people have been DMing her when she was in the other room speaking with us.
These people (non-Muslims) were speaking to her in a way that she described as "massaging my ego".

They kept praising her in a weird way and telling her not to accept Islam. And to keep taking the best part of every religion (Judaism and Islam) like has been doing.

When she read these DMs she told us that these people aren't genuine neither were their praises. She had the feeling that it was a sign from God to become Muslim right away.

I really applaud her emotional intelligence for figuring this out and seeing things how they really are.
Then I explained to her that the same happened with another sister. She received DMs and pings from Islamophobes when they learned she's interested in Islam.

I went to pray Fajr and when I came back she had already taken her Shahada with the other brother.
Allahu Akbar. Alhamdulillah.

Be protective of people interested in Islam. I was amazed by the effort these Islamophobes put into discouraging people from embracing Islam.

Some of these devils were coming in and out of our rooms listening to us and to the person. Then they'd open their own rooms and ping the interested person and feed them garbage.
Don't always go for the glamourous public Shahada. It's sometimes wiser to do it privately.

I'm a terrible story teller, I know. But I'm still amazed and in shock of how it all happened. Still recovering.
My apologies 😁

Next step for her is to learn al-Fatiha and how to pray. May Allah make easier for her. Ameen Ameen Ameen.
If you can help out by sending videos in English of praying tutorials based on authentic Sunnah, then please do. Jzakum Allahu khairan.

Sister X (literally a 12-hour Muslim) is giving dawah right now to another sister from a Jehovah's Witness background.
SubhanAllah
