My own doctoral work2 through the University of Edinburgh lead me to delve deeply into the literature of converts from Islam to Christianity. This included an analytical article on Saiid Rabiipour’s Farewell to Islam (2009), published as ‘”It is okay to question Allah”: the theology of freedom of Saiid Rabiipour, a Christian ex-Muslims.’3 As with most articles I publish I shared this on my professional blog,4 and it was by this means that Mr. Hussain contacted me and asked me if I would be interested in reviewing his own autobiography. The book begins with a depiction of the bucolic life led by his family in his hometown in the Mirpur region of Pakistani Kashmir.

  • Encounter with Folk Islam (1)
    Vivienne Stacey on Spiritual Warfare Encounter with Folk Islam (1) “Working for many years in a Muslim country, I have come to the conclusion that the power of Islam does not lie in its dogma and practices, nor in the antithesis of the Trinity against the Lordship of Christ and His redeeming death, but in the occult practices of its leaders, thus holding sway over their people.” So wrote Detmar Scheunemann about his ministry in Indonesia, in Let the Earth Hear His Voice page 885, Minneapolis: World Wide Publications, 1975. A study of the quarterly journal The Muslim World since its beginning in 1911 would confirm this view. Many articles from Christian workers in Muslim lands appeared until the late 1930s, eg: - The cult of saints in Islam Professor Goldziher. Vol 1, No 3, p 302, July 1911 Popular Islam in Bengal and How to Approach It. John Takle. Vol 4, No 4, p 379, Oct 1914 Islam and Magic in Egypt Herbert E E Hayes.

  • Going Public with Faith in a Muslim Context: Lessons from Esther by Jeff Nelson
    Religion and Identity Going Public with Faith in a Muslim Context: Lessons from Esther by Jeff Nelson issiologists and practitioners among Muslim converts continue to grapple with the question of self-identity within threatening religious environments.1 I suggest that we take this discussion of Midentity a step further and begin to explore the manner and timing of a convert’s self-disclosure. This article examines the story of Esther and her mentor, Mor- decai, to explore a critical strategy of advising secret believers, a critical decision concerning self-disclosure, and the influence of a critical mass of public believers in leading many others to faith. The article also considers the role of critical men- torship in advising Muslim background believers on the timing of self-disclosure. How or when should a secret believer make her faith public? At what point should a man identify himself as a Christ follower? Those working among Muslims often struggle to know how to advise converts on this issue because of the tension between biblical commands to confess one’s faith and the cul- tural realities of persecution or martyrdom. The story of Esther from the Hebrew Scriptures has parallels with the issue of self-disclosure of Muslim converts and implications for their mentors as Jeff Nelson, with his wife Janelle and well. The parallels include a people group threatened due to their identity their four children, has served with Assemblies of God World Missions with God; laws that support the persecution and death of the people of God; in Nairobi, Kenya since 2001.

Flight 160 Epilogue 170 My initial impression of Madame Bilquis Sheikh of Pakistan was of her large, expressive, luminous eyes. I saw pain written there, and compassion, and rare sensitivity to the world of the spirit. A woman of mysterious age with hints of gray in her hair, she was wearing a beautiful sari with dignity and grace. There was about her the unmistakable aura of having been born to wealth and position. Her voice was the deepest with the most resonant timbre I have ever heard in a woman. Our first meeting took place in the mirrored dining room of a Bel Air, California, restaurant. That day I heard the outline of Madame Sheikh's amazing story. Many another's adventure can perhaps equal hers in dramatic content, but few in one respect: only rarely does the sovereign God interrupt the flow of history to reach down and reveal Himself to a human being in such unmistakable fashion as He did with her. The element of initiative from the Godward side was so startling as to be reminiscent of Saul of Tarsus' experience on the road to Damascus.

    Building Bridges The following pages were presented at the Building Bridges with Muslims event spon- sored by Tabernacle EPC in October of 2016. Rev Mark Vanderput (iLoveMuslims.net) was the presenter. Mark is also one of our EPC World Outreach Missionaries. These have been made available to NCECP with Mark’s permission. “ISLAM, JESUS, AND YOU” INTRODUCTION Which word(s) best describes your reaction to the words “Muslim” or “Islam”: curiosity, fear, anger, or indifference? What are three adjectives you would use to describe Muslims? What core beliefs/religious practices do you associate with them? Have you made attempts to discuss faith issues with Muslims in your neighborhood, workplace, or school? Describe your experiences. “Islam” is Arabic for “surrender” or “submission,” and a Muslim is a “surrendered one”. I. ISLAM: THE ORIGINS THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD/THE QUR’AN - Muhammad was born in A.D. 570 into a family believed to be descended from Abraham’s son, Ishmael. His father died before his birth, his mother died when he was 6. He was appalled at the idol worship of his day. In a time of meditation in a cave outside Mecca, Muslims believe he was visited by the angel Gabriel and that from there until the end of his life in 632, he received revelations which were compiled into the “Qur’an.” The Qur’an is 114 chapters (suras) and is considered the last, infallible witness of Allah — an exact word-for-word copy of God’s final revelation. MUHAMMAD’S REACTIONS TO THE REVELATIONS AND VISIT WITH A “CHRISTIAN” – When Muhammad received revelations from the “angel,” he had numerous negative reactions: panic, terror; sweating profusely; ringing in the ears; foaming at the mouth; trembling; loss of consciousness or fainting; bewilderment - fear that he was possessed by a demon or going mad; suicidal depression.
