"“Converted to what?” is the first response. Islam presumably, yet here we have a huge assumption that we both agree on what that is. Why should I try to convert my non-Muslim friends when I often prefer them to the Muslims that I know? How will being Muslim change their lives for the better if they already display more of the Islamic virtues than most of the Muslims they are likely to meet?
I share what I have found when they show Interest, but like me they often look at the Muslim world and wonder what we have in common.
They find it hard to see living examples of the principles of which I speak."
I didn't write this, it was taken from an article I read. Either way, kind of a wake up call, isn't it?
