The
Decision
to Be Muslim
Siraj
Wahhaj There will come
a time in the lives of most young Muslims when they will face
a crossroad that will determine their path in life. Surrounded
by drugs, alcohol and other vices, they could very well make
the wrong decision leading to drastic consequences now and in
the hereafter. Speaking at an annual MYNA conference, Siraj Wahhaj
prepares the young audience for this situation by encouraging
them to be proud of Islam and to ask the critical question of
why exactly they are practicing Islam. Among the lessons learned
are the importance of making the right decisions, especially
the everyday decision to worship Allah for His sake alone, not
because one's parents say to do so. An essential lecture for
Muslim kids in public school and on the college campus that is
meant to strengthen their resolve in the face of temptation.
This lecture is also geared towards parents, imams and mentors
who are charged with the task of guiding and teaching our youth.
Other topics discussed: suicide, how to deal with parents who
don't pray, how to get married if there's no dating, can non-Muslims
enter Paradise, and are there "People of the Book"
living today? (Duration: 59 min + DVD
bonus lecture)
Siraj Wahhaj, imam of
Masjid Taqwa in New York, is a dynamic speaker and tireless supporter
of Islamic causes. He accepted Islam in 1969 and attended Ummul
Qura University.
