My journey to enlightenment
Samad

2005/12/31

My journey to enlightenment started when I was a final year medical student.
One day as I was praying in the rest room of my college one of my professor
enter the room. He was sitting there and looking at me praying. When I
finish he said "Son can I give you some advice" I replied "OK sir" Then he
something which I will remember forever. This is his exact words "Don't
waste your time kissing the floor. The whole Islam is a scam. It is a
mad-man ideology of hate. Quran is nothing but a book of baloney."

I was shocked. This proof is a very nice man. Most students liked him. He
even took extra hours to teach us. Out of all professors I like him the
most. I was thinking how he can say that. I just kept quite and walked out
of the room.

Later that day I told my roommate about it. He said it was a common
knowledge that he is an atheist. My roommate told me how much he hated this
professor. I was dumbfounded. My roommate always saw him to ask his help in
studies yet he hated him. Then I told myself that I have to save this man
from hell. I thought if I understand Islam deeply, I would be able to
explain to him the truth of Islam. I bought a Quran translation by Yusuf Ali
and a translation of Sahih Bukhari. That was the turning point in my life.
The more I read the Quran; the more realized that the book cannot be from
God. The verse on slavery finally broke the shell. I am free now. Free from
fear. A religion should give mankind a reason to live yet Islam gives
reasons to die.

Unfortunately before I could tell this professor about my enlightenment he
died of a heart attack. It was a sad day for me. I was the only "Muslim" who
attended his funeral. All other Muslim students I met told me that he is
going to hell. What kind of God can condemn such a great man to hell? What
is sure is that Muslims had made my life a living hell. Writing to you is
the only spiritual luxury I have in an Islamic country. Anyway I am still
thankful that Malaysia is just a moderate Islamic country unlike Iran.
