Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

Why do new Muslims become ISIS sympathizers?

“It seems that a lot of fighters of ISIS are converted Muslims. What is the reason that these new Muslims who entered into the fold of Islam after reading Quran and other Islamic books do not become sympathizers of humans but become sympathizers of Muslims? What is the reason and how do we counter this trend?”Asked by Farhad Umari, Delhi

Maulana, agla sawal Delhi se aya hai, Maulana Farhad Umri ka, aur unhone likha hai: "It seems that a lot of fighters of ISIS are converted Muslims. What is the reason that these new Muslims who entered into the fold of Islam after reading Quran and other Islamic books do not become sympathizers of humans but become sympathizers of Muslims? What is the reason and how do we counter this trend?" dekhen, is ko maine, yani kafi is par socha aur mutala kiya hai. asal cheez yeh hai ke dekhen, yeh jo ghair Muslim hain, woh mutasir hue Quran ko padh kar ke, Quran ko padh kar mutasir hue, lekin jab Islam mein dakhil hue to phir aa gaye Musalmanon mein.
