This is my story \u2014 what God did in my life.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Born Into Islam<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I was born into a Sunni Muslim family. We were fourteen brothers and sisters. From a young age, I loved Allah \u2014 but I also feared Him deeply, because in Islam, Allah can destroy anyone He chooses.<\/p>\n<p>Allah, as I knew Him, did not have a relationship with people. He was not looking for sons and daughters. He was looking for slaves\u2026 and martyrs.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Rejected by My Father<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>One day, my father called me and said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cCamal, you are not smart, and you\u2019re not good for school. I wish you were a girl \u2014 I would have gotten rid of you by now.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In Islam, a girl as young as six years old can be given away in marriage. That day, I ran for my life and hid in a mosque.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Trained by the Muslim Brotherhood<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>A group of men found me and protected me. They were called <em>the Muslim Brotherhood<\/em>. They became my family.<\/p>\n<p>They trained me as a child assassin. They trained me as a sniper. They trained me as a bomb expert.<\/p>\n<p>And eventually\u2026<\/p>\n<p>I was sent to the <strong>United States of America<\/strong>\u2014to infiltrate the land of the free.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Broken in America<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>But one day, in America, I got into a terrible car wreck. My body was broken, and my soul was in pieces.<\/p>\n<p>In my pain, I cried out:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAllah, where are you?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And guess what Allah said?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Absolutely nothing.<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Encounter with Unconditional Love<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>As I lay there devastated, a man came to me and said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSon, we\u2019re going to take care of you. Everything\u2019s going to be all right.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He took me into his home.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time in my life, I met a new kind of love<br \/>\nthe <strong>unconditional love of the Living God<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Through this Christian family, I saw something I had never seen before:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Generosity without condition.<\/li>\n<li>Forgiveness without merit.<\/li>\n<li>Protection without fear.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This was not religion.<br \/>\nThis was relationship.<br \/>\nThis was love.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Crying Out for Truth<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I went home and fell on my knees facing east \u2014 toward Mecca.<\/p>\n<p>I cried out with all my heart:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAllah, my Lord and my King, why have You done such a thing to me?<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve placed me among Christians!<\/p>\n<p>If You are real, speak to me!\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>But there was only silence.<\/p>\n<p>Despair overtook me. I decided to end my life. I took a gun, placed it in my mouth, and prepared to pull the trigger.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>The Voice of the Father<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Then I heard a voice.<\/p>\n<p>A voice that knew my name.<\/p>\n<p>He said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cCamal\u2026 my son.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cCamal\u2026 my son.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cCamal\u2026 my son.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Three times He called me.<\/p>\n<p>Then He said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI am the God of your father Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.<\/p>\n<p>Won\u2019t you call on Me?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>The Glory Appeared<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I fell on my knees and cried out:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cGod of Father Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob \u2014<br \/>\nif You are real, speak to me!<br \/>\nIf You are real, I want to know You!\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And suddenly \u2014 the room was filled with His <strong>glory<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>He stood there \u2014 clothed in radiant white.

The <strong>King of the Jews.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I saw the holes in His hands and in His feet.<br \/>\nAnd trembling, I asked,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWho are You, my Lord?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI AM He.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I asked again, \u201cWhat does that mean?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI AM that I AM.
