ISLAM


I have the Quran in 3 languages. I drunk Zam Zam water, I have been wearing Abaya and I have been praying in Arabic to Allah myself. I did not go to the mosque yet, but I definitely will. Neither I was in Makkah but hopefully I will visit the holy place next summer. 


My experience wearing Abaya was feeling beautiful, pure, and honestly powerful for being covered. 
Drinking Zam Zam water helped me to heal infections and viruses I cached living in Dubai. I did not take any medication, what I did is to drink daily the holy water that a friend of mine named Aisha who works for the Islamic Affairs brought for me from Saudi Arabia. I started to listen to the Quran and read the Spanish Version meanwhile it was doing my best reciting in Arabic, which I barely speak. Somehow and because of respect, meanwhile listening to Quran, I also started to cover my hair with a shawl voluntarily not because I was forced to do so. 




But the real Miracle happened last year in May 2014, driving from Dubai to Oman with my friend Reem Ismail, to do my Visa. We stopped the music inside the car when the prayer started. I had no choice. So from singing POP songs I went into a deep mode of listening to religious messages in a language that I didn't speak or understand. 

Suddenly, something very weird happened. I started to feel like floating. It felt like my soul was leaving my body for real to fly out reaching out for the sky and for more than 10 seconds I felt like an empty body sitting in the back seat of a car. 

I did not say a word, cause I was a more of in a shock. Reem asked me if I did like the sura, but not a word came out from my mouth. I kept starring at her with a big humble and confusing smile. 

After the prayer was over I touched her shoulder and when she turned back I said: 
- Reem, I am scared... Something just happened. Something really really really weird just happened to me. 

But then she answered: 
- Welcome to the Miracles of Islam.

  1. "Alif, Lam, Meem. This is the Scripture whereof there is no doubt, a guidance unto those who ward off (evil). Who believe in the Unseen, and establish worship, and spend of that We have bestowed upon them; And who believe in that which is revealed unto thee (Muhammad) and that which was revealed before thee, and are certain of the Hereafter. These depend on guidance from their Lord. These are the successful. As for the Disbelievers, Whether thou warn them or thou warn them not it is all one for them; they believe not. Allah hath sealed their hearing and their hearts, and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be an awful doom." (Surah Al-Baqarah, Chapter 2)
