Most of the prisons in the United States
are privately owned, which is crazy to
think about. So that means that prisons
are businesses. A lot of the prisons
that are controlled at a private level,
they have a stake in the biggest music
record labels. Singers when they sing
songs,
it's like a mantra. When you repeat a
chorus over and over and over, so when a
kid hears a song and he starts singing
that chorus over and over and over, then
you start to hear it in the alpha state
into the subconscious mind. Assalamu
alaykum. In this episode, we'll be
asking the question, why is Islam the
fastest growing faith in US prisons?
Let's hear from Terrence the Gangster
Williams, former gangster who found
Islam in prison. And in prison, you
know, in jail, state off, everybody go
to go to go to church. So, you got more
Christians on the compound than Muslims
first and foremost. However, in our
dean, when you take Shah, they tell you
your blood is sacred. Now, did you know
that 80 to 90% of prisoners who find
faith in prison choose Islam? Now,
Muslims make up only 1% of the US
population, but in prison, they make up
10 to 15% of the population. In some
states, even 20%.
And most of these are converts, reverts,
who have put all the religions on the
table. They're behind the four walls
without all the distractions. and
they've seen that Islam provides all the
proof and evidence that it's indeed the
truth from the creator of the heavens
and earth. The Islam haters push the
false idea that conversion to Islam in
prison leads to radicalization,
but research from the National Institute
of Corrections. Independent studies and
leading criminologists say there is
little to no evidence of this happening.
The deeper question is, if you give the
most extreme criminals in society, the
most extreme religion, wouldn't you
expect extreme outcomes? But we're
seeing the opposite. People who have
lost their humanity while going into
prison are coming out of prison finding
it again through Islam. Take for example
Christopher Anderson, the son of a
Christian pastor. He says he only found
his humanity through Islam in prison.
That is part of what attracted Muhammad
Amin Anderson to the faith. How has
Islam changed your life? When I came to
prison, I didn't have my humanity. My
guest today is no other than Imam Jalani
Abdul Karim. He's a chaplain with the
New York City Department of Corrections
at Riker's Island. and he's going to
help us to go deeper into this topic and
we'll see if you like to go even deeper
to see with the private prison
institutions. We heard Ice Q saying same
people who own the labels own the
prisons.
So literally the same people literally
the same people who own the labels on
private prisons. The records that come
out
are really geared
to push
people towards that prison industry.
There's a connection between them and
the record labels. If you if you want to
touch upon this, we'll even get into
this inshallah. So, we got a lot to
cover with my next guest.
I love you very much. I love the work
that you're doing. When I was ready to
talk about it, I would only talk to
guest. I was explaining How much respect
I have for the faith of Islam.
Welcome to the Dean Show. The Dean Show.
How are you doing, Imm? Alhamdulillah.
I'm good. Alhamdulillah. I can't
complain. Good to have you on the
program. Tell us, how did you become an
imam and a chaplain at Riker's Island?
And for those that have no idea about
Riker's Island, tell us a little bit
about it.
Well, I thought, well, how did I become?
And it's, you know, when people always
ask me that question, I have to for a
few minutes pay homage to the people who
paved the way. Um here in New York City
uh back in the 60s
there was a movement here in New York
called the Donald Islam movement and
there were a group of brothers who used
to go into the prison and give da in the
state correction and in the city
corrections and uh at that time they
didn't have uh you know anybody giving
da from mainstream Islam from Sunni
Islam. I'm sure you had the Nation of
Islam at that time going into the prison
but nobody from orthodox Sunni
mainstream Islam. So the brothers used
to go in there and give da and uh the
state you know presented an opportunity
uh one of the first uh imams at that
time was shik Ishmael Abdul Rahim may
Allah have mercy on him who you know who
started uh chapency you know what I'm
saying him and I imam Abdul Latif and
you know a group of them from the dollar
Islam movement they were the first
people to go in and be paid as imams you
know working in in in the in the
institutions. And so my father, you know
what I'm saying, also was one of those
brothers who used to, you know, he was
an imam here. And my stepmother, sister
Aisha Muhammad, he was also a chaplain
working on record island. So these were
the people who like paved the way for
and made it, you know, possible. In
fact, when I was a young boy coming back
from studying in Africa in my teens, my
father used to bring me to Riker's
Island to to talk to the brothers as a
volunteer. And so once I finished my
studies and I graduated, alhamdulillah,
opportunity presented itself and that's
how I started working as a imam uh in
the prisons. And so I first started in
1997. And as everybody know, you know,
Rakers Island is inf is is famous, you
know, famous not in a good way, but in
in in the fact that it was it's one of
the largest jails in America, you know,
one of the the largest jails. And so
when I first started, we had about there
was about 15 to 17 different facilities
and each facility had an imam, had a
chaplain to come in and educate the
people about Islam. And so that's how I
first started.
Uh why do you think 80 to 90% of
prisoners who turn to faith in prison
choose Islam out of all the other
religions, man-made rel why why did they
choose the dean in your experience?
Islam.
From my experience working here at
Riker's Island, uh, and talking with the
brothers here, uh, when they, when they
are incarcerated, they are at their
lowest point.
And Islam for them provides the
solutions, the discipline, the
structure, you know what I'm saying? The
connection to the creator, all of these
things that Islam, you know, Islam
provides for them the solution. And
Islam shows them a way out. And so this
is what the brothers say. They say,
"Listen, Islam was the answer for me.
When I look at all other religions,
Islam is the one that checks all the
boxes. That answers all the questions
that I have." The men and the women.
The uh Islam haters, they say Islam in
prison leads to radicalization. Experts
disagree. I've cited uh one study.
There's so many more independent
studies. What's your response? Well, I
mean, it's obvious. No, you know, um,
subhan Allah, when when when people
embrace Islam here on Riker's Island and
they really begin to apply the religion
to their life and they get out of here,
they flourish. You know what I'm saying?
Islam gives them an opportunity to
reform themselves. You know, I hear you
mention to get their humanity back,
right? Islam provides that for them. And
so, it's not even about extreme, you
know, subhan Allah. Anybody who
practices Islam, who believes in Allah
and follows the prophet Muhammad
correctly,
that's the balance way. And so Islam
provides that balance for them, that
structure. And so when they leave here
and they and they and they connect
themselves to a masid and they become
part of a community and they become
productive members of the society,
that's what we see. So we don't see no
extremism. We don't see no radical.
Subhan Allah.
basic fundamental simple brothers, you
know, and sisters who are trying to
become productive members of the
society. That's it. I want to see your
reaction because it's one thing us
talking. We're going to actually I want
to get your reaction. This is a former
pastor's son, Christopher Anderson, who
found he's saying what we're saying
here. He found his humanity through
Islam. Let's have a look. That is part
of what attracted Muhammad Amin Anderson
to the faith. How has Islam changed your
life? When I came to prison, I didn't
have my humanity. I say it like that.
But after entering prison, I recovered
my humanity.
Born Christopher Anderson in
Philadelphia, he was the son of a
preacher, but as a teen, he answered the
call of the streets. Actually fell into
a drug addiction for about a year and a
half. And I got involved with a group of
guys and they were selling drugs in our
city. rocking everybody and all the
ladies. In his early 20s, Anderson
participated in a gang related murder.
He was sentenced to more than 30 years
in prison. How soon into your
incarceration did you find Islam? Maybe
a year or two I was in I think. Why
Islam and not further into Christianity
or Judaism or another faith? And I spent
my years in prison learning about other
faiths. So I knew a lot about them. And
it was like Islam was the only one that
made sense for me. Was there a
particular aspect of it that really
resonated with you? For me, the
spirituality, it offered me that that
sense of um guidance, a direction as his
faith grew deeper. Anderson, he said it,
you can hear it. He's a former pastor's
son. He goes in to being the most
extreme person now doing the most
extreme things to coming to Islam. And
he says he lost his humanity and he
found it through Islam. This is amazing.
Yeah. Subhan Allah. I'm not surprised.
And the reality is that here, you know,
on Riker's Island, we find many examples
like there are many brothers like him.
You're used to this already. Yeah. Yeah.
Subhan Allah. Many examples like that.
Brothers and sisters who, you know, they
they they they're looking, you know,
they're searching for something and
Islam provides the answer for them.
How how long have you been doing this
now? How long have you been there? So
you've probably you've seen I mean
people just 1997 since 97. I started in
1997. Yes. Long time. And and you you
you're seeing the result. But do you you
get the point when I asked I said the
deeper question is if you're giving like
the Islam haters they say it's
radicalizing people. You know prison is
a revolving door. People go into and you
know this better than anyone. Uh they
come in they get educated on how to do
more crime. They get out and then they
come back in. But Islam, like in the
rest of his interview, he said this stop
this stop is helping to stop is the key
to stopping the revolving door because
it's reforming people. What do you
think? Exactly. So yeah, it's it's
definitely reforming people, but also
part of it is when they come out of
prison, they have to connect themselves
to a masid. They have to be part of a
community because what happens is if
they don't if they don't connect
themselves to a masid a community and be
part of you know an organized effort you
can actually kind of like find yourself
coming back again. So what I see here in
my experience is all of the brothers and
sisters who when they leave here when
they connect themselves when they attach
themselves to a masid and they become
active in the community then the
recidivism rate is low. I want to get
your reaction again. This is u the
gangster the former gangster Williams
and uh here's what he has to say. And in
you know in jail stayed off it everybody
go to church. So you got more Christians
on the compound than Muslims first and
for first and foremost. However, in our
dean when you take shahada, they tell
you your blood is sacred. Your brother
proper property is is is sacred. You
know, protect your brother honor. So now
what happens is this is my brother. I
love my brother for the sake of Allah,
for the sake of God. And we stick
together. Brothers that pray together
stay together. So people be like, "Oh,
they a gang." Because if you put your
hand on a Muslim, you going to have 100
lower the lower number maybe
30 40 50 somewhere in your dorm trying
to find out what's going on with you in
a What about that aspect? He's talking
about the brotherhood. Yeah, that's
that's true. That I mean, subhan Allah,
that everything he said was correct. And
that happens here. You know what I'm
saying? When a brother embraces Islam,
they tell him, you know, you're part of
you know, you're part of the ummah. You
know what I'm saying? You're our
brother. And we start teaching them the
basics like your blood, your probably is
sacred. Your brothers, you know, they
they they try to live together in the
same housing area. They try to pray
together. They try to do things
together. And so and and and what I find
is that a lot of people on the outside
looking in, they want that. They want
that sense of belonging to something
that is that has structure, discipline.
when they see the brothers get up, when
they see the brothers get up in the
morning and praying for in the dorm or
in the housing area, that's attractive
to people because a lot of people in
prison, they're lost and they they want
that sense of structure, that direction,
that guidance. So everything the brother
said in that piece is correct. That
that's true.
What is the population would you
estimate in Riker's Island that you have
uh Muslims there? the population
uh right now because so Rikers Island
used to be huge. The numbers I mean any
one facility could have about 3,500
inmates but the numbers are so low now
you know the l the the numbers have
dwindled but Islam is still big. So like
the brother mentioned in the piece that
Christianity is really they like because
here on Rakana when people are
incarcerated the first thing they ask
them when they when they booking them
what is your religion?
All right. And so a lot of people even
though Christianity have bigger numbers,
a lot of people tend to identify with
Islam. So right now the numbers here
could be uh 5,000 if not more. What
would that translate percentage-wise?
10 10 15 20%. What would you say? I 25%
25 to 30%. You would say 25 because I
went high number 20. You 25 to 30%. And
you would say that be the the the Muslim
population and these are people who are
converting to Islam. Yes. Who are
converting to Islam. But also now
Riker's Island is unique. And if I have
to be honest, what I'm starting to see
nowadays is there's an influx of young
people coming here who are already
Muslim,
but they may not have been practicing in
the street. And so when they come here,
they start getting focused and they
start getting serious. Like a lot of our
immigrant brothers here in New York,
there's a big issue with the gangs
outside, right? And so you find that
like a lot of young Africans are, you
know, a part of the gangs. So when they
come to Riker's Island and see the
Muslims and they say, "Oh, subhan Allah,
this is, you know, I was born Muslim. I
was raised." And so they come back to
Islam trying to practice and get
themselves together. Mhm. Let's hear
from another inmate. These numbers raise
a profound question. What is it about
Islam that resonates so deeply with
those serving time?
If there was ever a comparable community
to people striving to emulate and live
the life of Islam and his early
companions, it is the it is the jail the
prison Muslims. You have a code of
conduct based on Quran and Sunna. Wow.
You have a mandatory Juma attendance,
mandatory tale, mandatory lessons. You
have to make your prep. People are going
to be accountable on you. Mandatory
workout. Mandatory. One of the books
that they give me, right? When I first
got in there, the first book that I was
given when I when I took my shahada was
the fundamental duties of brotherhood in
Islam by Imam Al Gazeli. And this this
this was fundamental reading. That's my
man. Alhamdulillah. I love his book.
Allah have mercy on him. You have to
understand that is the structure
reading. So when people look at us when
we come out from prison, I've been told
so many times by brothers who have been
Muslim their entire life, where'd you go
to school at? H where did you learn this
at? What what what presented you with
this information? It's the brother
where your brother you learn this. Would
you do this? And alhamdulillah I can
always say I was given an I was given an
education. Firstly, thanks to the Muslim
prisoner project. Thank you for them.
Secondly, from the mandatory
the the code of conduct of the Muslims
behind bars. You know what I'm saying?
Of course there's oppression. Of course
there's hardship. Of course, there's
staff that served in the armed forces
that look at us like, you know what I'm
saying, potential problems and all that.
Of course, the administration might look
at us as a security threat group because
there's such a solidarity amongst the
brothers. Of course, but alhamdulillah
for Islam. What do you think? Yeah.
Alhamdulillah. Um
it is he on also it's kind of you can
identify like the other one you were
saying is Yeah. Yeah. So but the
difference Okay. So with his situation,
he I'm sure he came from a state
facility. Raalen is very transitory. So
it's a jail, right? So the guys who come
here, they get the fundamental things,
you know, salah issues of and things,
you know, their belief system, you know,
they're just coming off the street. So
we have to clean them up. Once they go
upstate to the state facilities, then
they get, you know, they, you know,
they're about to do their time now. They
can focus on different things. And so
they so in the state jails they they
more they go into more detail things you
know as it relates to Islam. So he
talked about uh reading uh shik Muhammad
al Gazali's books and things like that.
Yeah they do that upstate whereas on
rakal we just deal with you know basic
fundamental things salah how to teach
them because you know again they're new
shahada so they learning how to make woo
how to make salah how to believe in
Allah correctly these fundamental
issues. So, this is more like a
correctional facility
where you're waiting to go to court,
waiting to get you sentenced.
Yes. So, Riker's Island is a jail and so
people are going back and forth to
court. They're fighting their case.
They're waiting to, you know, Yeah.
they're waiting to receive their
sentence. Now, there was a time when
people would only spend maybe one or two
years here. Now, lately since co, you'll
find people fighting their case for
five, six, seven years because there's a
backlog in the in in the court system.
So people very a few people have been
here for a long period of time.
If Islam was as extreme as they claimed
Islam haters, why? This is the question.
This is the million dollar question. Why
is it creating positive change instead
of chaos? Why is Islam helping these men
reform men like this who would be the
most extreme in society? Yeah. Because I
mean, subhan Allah, we know the answer
to that, right? As Muslims, we know
Islam is the answer. I think, you know,
not just for the not just for uh the
prisoners, but Islam is the answer for
the world. You know what I'm saying?
Islam is the thing that can help reform
America and get America on track. So, we
have no doubt as Muslims that Islam is
the way. Islam is the balance way. Do do
are there extremists? I'm sure you can
find that. But generally speaking, Islam
doesn't produce that. Islam produced
people of consciousness who are
balanced, who are easygoing. So, you
know, we don't have a problem
understanding that.
Okay. The the next question, we don't
have to go into it if you feel
comfortable talking about a little bit
with your experience. Who benefits from
the failure of these men? Who profits
from the revolving door of
incarceration? Would you like to talk
about the uh private prison industry?
I'm not really familiar with the private
prison. I mean, I'm not familiar with
the private prison industry. But we know
here in America, right, that the the
prison industrial complex is a
billion-dollar industry, right? We
understand that. We know that. Listen,
this how, you know, this how this is uh
modernday slavery and this is how you
know America profits off it. So when we
talk about who benefits from it, the
system, this system that we live in
benefits from incarcerating black and
brown people on a large scale and having
that, you know, the recidivism rate be
high. Nobody. I mean, nobody wants to
see this system
crumble or crash. You know what I'm
saying? And Islam is the answer for
that. That is profound. I want to get
your reaction to this video that touches
a little bit about this really surprised
me here. Most of the prisons in the
United States are privately owned, which
is crazy to think about. So that means
that prisons are businesses. A lot of
the prisons that are controlled at a
private level. They have a stake in the
biggest music record labels. And they've
done deals with a lot of hip-hop artists
to push certain narratives on violence
and gang culture to just fill up the
prisons. And if you don't think that
that is truth, all you have to do is go
watch some of the Ice Cube interviews.
Record company guys sit around and tell
the artists, "This is hot. Say that. Do
this." The records that come out are
really geared to push people towards
that prison industry. You know, some
social engineering going on here to make
sure those prisons stay full. Be very
careful and try to avoid anything that
you think isn't going to nurture your
soul. Be very careful with the lyrics
because repetition also influences
behavior. Social engineering. I was
blown away when he said, um, now h how
how much is that fact? Ice Cube is the
one who put it out there. Others have
spoken about it. The connection between
private institutions, record labels, and
now they're pushing out social
engineering, you know, the culture with
the music and the things that would um
facilitate some of people doing some of
these uh evil things. What What are your
thoughts? So, you know, I work with a
lot of the young brothers here cuz they
have an adolescent a young adult
facility on Ruckers Island as well. And
one of the things and before I even
heard that like I used to tell the
brothers before like I have to be
careful with the music. Have you heard
this before? You you knew about this? I
never heard I never I never knew I I
mean based upon my interaction with the
young people, one of the things that I
attributed to the hard to the high
incarceration rate was this drill music.
They have something called drill music,
right? Yeah. And brainwashing the young
people. It's brainwashing these people
where they have no, you know, subhan
Allah. They hear the music and they go
out commit crimes, attempt murders,
shooting people. And so I used to tell
the brothers inside that we have to stay
away from the music because the music is
brainwashing them. When I go inside
these facilities and I'm touring the
facilities and I'm in the housing areas
and I'm just watching them how they
interact with each other, the things
that the young people are engaging. You
hear them listening to music bopping
around the hall. I'm saying so brain is
really having an effect on them. So I
agree that the music the music is
pushing, you know what I'm saying? this
industrial complex or the prison
industrial complex and you know the the
violence amongst the people you know
killing each other and all of that stuff
the music and the video games it's brain
I mean it has the people really confused
let's have a look at this now this is a
non-Muslim and he's he's touching upon
the same topic Michael Jackson exposes
the dark truth about music singers when
they sing songs
it's like a mantra when you repeat a
chorus over and over and over so when a
kid hears a song and you start singing
that chorus over and over and over, then
you start to hear it in the alpha state
into the subconscious mind. So, you
start to become the song or become what
you're saying. Now, Michael Jackson
being one of the greatest musicians to
ever live, you can safely say that he's
an authority figure when it comes to the
subject of music. The reality is that
music is one of the most powerful forms
of programming. You don't just listen to
it, you actually absorb it. Let's do a
quick experiment. How does this make you
feel?
Now, how does this make you feel?
Two different songs, two completely
different vibes. And look, you can
listen to whatever you want to listen
to. I'm not here trying to discourage
you from listening to any type of music,
but the fact is you are what you
consume. It isn't only you are what you
eat, you are what you consume. So if you
keep taking in destructive music, don't
be surprised if your life starts to
reflect that. Very powerful. That's why
I tell people stay away. I mean, I was
also in that industry, the entertainment
industry, nightclubs and everything back
in Jahalia. and you wake up to music,
you go to sleep to music, in the car m
everything, listening to hip-hop, rap,
all that. I'm say if you want to take
your dean, if you want to get to the
next level, if I work out, if I'm in the
car now, I put a lecture, podcast,
things are that going to help you grow,
not numb you up and then you start going
to La La Land and much of this stuff is
is poison. It's like, you know, the uh
the virus they put into the u that gets
into the computer, the malware gets the
virus gets into you and now that's what
it is. It infects you and I say stay the
hell away from it if you want to grow in
your dean in your religion your
connection with your creator what what
do you have to say I mean when I you
know when I hear the guy what he was
saying you know it just makes me think
why you know that's why as Muslims we
don't we don't indulge in these things
right music and stuff like that you know
because they affect the heart right the
ears the ears our eyes the things that
we take in visually the things that we
take in with our ears all of it affects
the heart and it affects the soul and
that's why say that music is haram We
don't we don't you know what I'm saying
if musical musical instruments. Yeah.
Yeah. Hold on. Because it has an effect
on you. It does it does something to
you. And so when he especially that clip
when he was playing that hardcore I mean
subhan Allah just you can feel it. You
feel it, right? Yeah. Exactly. You feel
something. It's dark. It's great. It's
it just has a negative effect on you.
And so we should stay away from it as
Muslims to the best of our ability
because I mean as again I keep going
back to when I'm in these housing areas
on Riker's Island. I'm in these
facilities and I'm listening to the
stuff that these people are engaged in.
You know, they look like zombies. You
know what I'm saying? Just jumping all
up. Subhan Allah. The music is making
these people crazy. And so we have to
stay away from it to protect ourselves,
to protect our heart, to protect our
souls. Subhan Allah. Beautiful. anything
you want to close with some uh advice
for the the young, the old, how they can
uh not end up in Riker's Island and how
they can go ahead fight true purpose
peace and you gave some good advice. I
think that one of I think that one of
the things that I'm seeing especially
with the young people, right, is that
and it's not just the young people, but
it's the adults, our fathers, you know,
the elders, the elders in the community.
We have to reconnect with the young
people. We have to say, you know, we
have to go back and get our young people
because they're being, you know, the
influence of this dunya in the street
life is taking them off the path. And
one of the things I remember that used
to that helped me cuz I was born and
raised in Brooklyn, grew up is that my
father and the men in the community.
They would take us by the hand and they
would spend time with us and they taught
us how to be men. Our young people need
men in their lives to teach us how to be
men. Bring them to the masah. Bring
them, you know what I'm saying, do
activities with them in the community.
Travel with them. And when we read the
history of Islam, there was no
separation between the older companions
and the young people. They were with the
messenger of Allah together, you know.
And so this is what our young people
need because we're losing people to and
if we want to save our our young our
youth, we have to, you know what I'm
saying, connect with them and bring them
back and show them that Islam is the
better way. And we just have to all all
of us do the best that we can, right?
Nobody's perfect. We make mistakes. We
want to be the best Muslims that we can
be. that and I just pray that this da
that we do in the prison, Allah accepts
it from us and it's written in our
record of good deeds and may Allah bless
you brothers here at the dean show y'all
known all over the world man the work
that y'all do may Allah you know write
it down for y'all as some good reward
and may be a means whereby you get Jenna
inshallah amen thank you thank you for
being the guest here on the show thank
you for having me I appreciate it so
that was the imam the chaplain in
Riker's island uh substantiating these
facts and that's something for you to
think about why when somebody is put
behind these four walls they come in to
majority Christian population other
religions they come in ask you what
religion you are and now you're coming
in Christian pastor son like who lost
his humanity comes in finding his
humanity and these are people from all
different crimes that they committed
extreme
doing extreme things and they come into
the prison, they sit behind the four
walls, they investigate, and they open
up the Quran, they read, they study, and
they're like, "Man, this is the truth."
And they accept. That's why you got the
like he was saying, 25 to 30% population
in Riker's Island, the chaplain there.
What about you now? You got so many
distractions out there. You got so much
going on. And then now, do you have to
be forced to be put behind four rooms
that you'll finally start to really
reflect and think, what's the purpose of
life? Why have I been created? Why am I
here in this life? Pretty soon, lights
out. That's it. And I'm not talking
about the lights on the wall. I'm
talking about the the light of life.
You're going to be done. You're going to
be in the grave. It's finished. No more
coming back. And then what? You got the
paradise. You got the hellfire. What did
you strive for? Which one? Well, Islam,
submission to the creator, not the
creation. Worshiping only one creator.
It's been there since the beginning,
since the first man, Adam, peace and
blessings be upon him. God told him to
submit his will to the will of God. He
was a Muslim. And then to continue on
through all the prophets and messengers,
just to name a few, Noah, Abraham,
Moses, Jesus, peace be upon him, and the
last and final messenger, Pro Muhammad,
peace and blessings be upon him. Those
and in between those they all came were
not different religions but the same way
of life to submit your will to the will
of the creator of the heavens and earth
to worship the creator alone doing what
God wants you to do not your desires and
you make a mistake you turn to the
creator alone and ask forgiveness
nobody's paying the check for your sins
no one's dying for your sins God
almighty Allah is the most merciful the
most compassionate you turn to him ask
for guidance right now say guide me
guide me guide me what have you put me
on this earth for and then look into
Islam and I challenge you to find a
mistake in there. I challenge you to
find who else could have written this
book. There's no way if you're sincere
and you read the Quran, you do your
research and you're asking the creator
to guide you that you will not come to
the conclusion but God's help that this
is the way of life for all of mankind.
