Brother Saif, congratulations on your enlightenment. I discarded my Islaam in 2004 after realising that the Qur’aan was authored by man. Despite all the claims, like most religions, Islaam does more damage than good to humanity. If an individual wants to believe in one deity alone, he or she doesn’t need Muhammad or the Qur’aan for that worship. Personally, I’m an atheist and will never return to Islaam. Muslims are intellectually suppressed by their religion and are missing out on life with such a narrow-minded, exclusive, and dismal perspective on reality. Leaving Islaam was the greatest decision I’ve ever had to make, but probably the most difficult one. I struggled immensely during the process of deprogramming my mind of the junk that was indoctrinated by religion and society. I found myself. I’m not like Muhammad, nor do I desire to be. Salaams!
Dear Saif, good to read about your awakening. But considering the current clime in India (and the world), I would advise that you don’t disclose your identity on the net. There are crazy people around and we have a Government in the centre that bends over backwards to cater to obscurantist mullahs. Your personal safety may be at stake.
I am a regular visitor to Dr Sina’s site ff.org and I found you website from there. All the best to you for your future.
I am an apostate too. I hope you don’t have problems from your family because of leaving Islam. I was a convert so I didn’t have any Muslim family. I am trying to raise my kids to accept that everyone has their own path, even if it doesn’t agree with theirs. I’m sure their dad will cause problems though, he’s Egyptian. But we all have to do the best we can and be true to ourselves, not try to be what others want us to be.
