I was born to a Secular Jewish family, and at the age of
18 years old decided to look “deeper” into belief in God. Like most people, I
looked at religion from a view point that was closer to me. Being that my
family was Jewish and I was raised to attend Jewish schools I looked into
Rabbinical “Orthodox Judaism”.
In the year 1988 I entered a Yeshiva and started my
journey into the Orthodox Rabbinical racist cult. In 1991 I wed my 1st
wife (then) Luna Mellul now Qamar al Khattab.
She was from the Moroccan town named Tetouan and was
attending the racist Orthodox Jewish girl’s seminary known as Breuers or
Sampson Raphael Hirsh Bet Yaakov aka Bais Yakov.
1992 bought us the birth of my 1st child
Abdel Rahman (formally Rachamim Cohen).
Alhumdulilah he was then
as he is now my pride and joy. Upon the birth of Abdel Rahman we were living
in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in the Satmar Hasidic community. I used to see all
the lying and cheating, government scams and money laundering using the
Synagogue and Yeshiva bank accounts and the poor hygiene of these folk, and was
nervous for my new born son not to grow up like these folk.
We tried broadening our horizons and moved to the Ocean Parkway area of Brooklyn, later that year.
1994 till 1998 bought us the birth of 3 more wonderful
children alhumdulilah. Hesibeh, Abdel Aziz (formally Ezra), and Abdullah
(formally Ovadia) during these years I tried to convince myself that Judaism
was a true path and I just didn’t understand it because I never read the entire
set of Talmud and it 3 different ways of understanding it including the “hidden
level”. You see this is the trick in the rabbinical cult, you will not EVER
finish learning all the rabbinic text thus u are subservient to the Rabbis (aka
Elders of Zion) who will interpret Judaism for you. During this time frame the
Rabbis saw that we doubted there beliefs thus constantly followed our family
contacting all new friends and employers etc. The Rabbis MUST ALWAYS know
where you move to and who are your friends. The Rabbis were starting to be a
big nuisance as were the Rabbinical Jews, so seeking a better future elsewhere
we loaded up the family and moved to Palestine. (then like most westerners we
were brainwashed to refer to the Jew entity as Israel).
September, 1998 we now arrived in Ghaza [Gaza] , or what the Jewish squatters refer to as Gush Qatif. Quickly my wife was turned
off by the lies of the folk there and my son Abdel Rahman came running home
from school one day saying “Daddy, my teacher doesn’t cover her hair properly,
her dress is to short, they don’t learn Torah here and all they do is play”!!
Maashaallah, my son was
very correctl, so with no possessions or money we set off to find a home in the
nearby Jew settlement of Netivot in occupied 1948 Palestine. Shas, a “religious
political party” immediately helped us by providing a home and their private
school system and my kids went from knowing NO Hebrew to being tops in there
class alhumdulilah. During our stay in Netivot I met a Muslim from UAEm, and
we had conversations for about two years where he would ask me questions about
Jewish Aqeedah or Jewish creed, and then compare it to Tawheed al
Elohiya a part of Islamic Monotheism. I would then go and ask major Rabbis
questions about the Jewish creed and always got 60000 different answers. The
Jews can’t even tell you where there God is based on text; rather they say God
is everywhere! (authubilah) One day I
decided to go to the Arab souk and buy a translation of the meaning of
the Holy Quran in the English language. Subhanallah!!!!!
I could not put it down!! Every problem I had with Jews and Judaism was being
addressed by Allah the Most High, in the 1st three chapters of the
Quran Allah answered most of my doubts about Judaism. The Quran is firm with
the Jews and invites them to a just truth (Islam) to save them from the
hellfire their ancestors are currently in.
When I finished reading the entire Quran, I could no
longer associate with Jews any longer, thus I was obliged to tell my wife I am
a Muslim. Alhumdulilah within 2 weeks my wife decided to read the Quran and became
a Muslimah!!! Then the kids after her alhumdulilah. Soon after this we moved
to the Palestinian Authority and East Jerusalem where we lived for almost 6
years.
Today 2006 alhumdulilah we live in Morocco
My kids’ alhumdulilah no longer remember Hebrew and
their 1st language is Arabic. All are learning in Islamic Arabic
schools alhumdulilah, and we thank Allah subahanahu wa tala
for blessing us with Islam.
