How can I assist you today? you: I see your ad on google you: ad Shannon: Are you a born Muslim, a convert, or a non- Muslim? you: a non-muslim Shannon: how can I help you today? you: As i see there is not good life being a muslim india then why you need to get convert to muslim, Actually i am hindu(as i born in the family) but i believe in god to be one or none. People worship god due to fear or selfishness Shannon: why do you say that it is not good life being muslim in india? you: Hindu fundamentalist will always anti to you and live is misreable if you are no rich. There are many riots how to escape from them? People think they Muslim creates chaos in country (it's true or not but people says) they became terrorist and much more Shannon: there is violence triggered from both sides I'm sure, it isn't a cut and dry one sided thing Shannon: for all cases Shannon: there are lots of people in india that were hindu that converted to islam, but keep their islam a secret to avoid persecution. you: what about safety? you: and about jobs etc. Shannon: they hide their islam from the people, they keep it to themselves you: politicans uses islam as vote bank not as citizen you: if i need to hide the religion why i should convert Shannon: pleasing the one that created you takes priority over a job don't you think? you: no Shannon: if you put your full trust in Allah, he will give you solutions from places you least expect you: i don't want to live like a idiot without money and food. you: Food and money is prior than religion (it may be any) Shannon: Allah is our provider, and will give you a job that he feels is best for you at that time, he is the master of all planners :) you: neither allah nor ram nor christ will help if i being not given the opportunity and work hard for it you: Like other christan missionary do you also pay to get converted to islam you: ? Shannon: Allah either gives or denies us opportunities, because he knows what will happen for all paths/decisions we make Shannon: no, we do not pay money to convert people you: thanks Shannon: when people pay money to convert people, it is not sincere, and that would be sinful you: atleast you are not take advantage of poor you: may be it siner Shannon: exploiting the needy is wrong

you: Yes it's wrong you: How it works? Shannon: Muslims help whoever needs help, even if they are not converting, unlike other people do you: Is i need to attend some ceremony you: can i keep things personal Shannon: no, converting is very simple, we can do it here in a matter of minutes...no ceremonies , etc you: how? Shannon: To convert to Islam and become a Muslim all you need to do is to pronounce with a voice that you can hear and with conviction and understanding of its meaning: I testify “La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammad rasoolu Allah.” Shannon: These Arabic words are called Shahada or the testimony, which I can help you in pronouncing them after a while. They are translated as, “There is no true god (deity) but God (Allah), and Muhammad is the Messenger (Prophet) of God.” Shannon: The first part, “There is no true god but Allah,” means that none has the right to be worshipped but God alone, and that God has neither partner nor son. The second part means that Muhammad was a true Prophet sent by God to humankind. Shannon: if you would like to convert let me know, I can help you with it :) you: What about my family if they protest? Shannon: most families don't agree with their children when the convert, it is common. do you live at home still? you: no but i to have to tell my family about it isn't it? Shannon: it is up to you if you do or not Shannon: it isn't obligatory for you to you: but how to take confidence of family if i want to convert Shannon: every family is different, you would have to guage how much they can handle at a time, and the best way to approach them Shannon: you said you were hindu right? do you know how your family feels about muslims? you: They have no idea but surely they will not allow anyway. My Family even not allows to get love marriage, converting is far behinds to hope. you: I don't want to hurt my family Shannon: I understand, and no one wants to hurt family, but it is about saving your soul, and guaranteeing yourself heaven Shannon: in islam, we must respect our parents, but we are not supposed to listen to them if they are ordering us to do something againsnt Islam, and the only permissible time to do something like that is if your life is in danger, and you can conceal your islam for safety reasons in that case you: Thanks for your help you: how to do it and when should i do it Shannon: what, the conversion? you: yes Shannon: I explained the steps above a few minutes ago, it is very simple, shall I post it again for you :) Shannon: I can walk you through it, and we can do your
