The Power of Prostration

The following story was mentioned by brother Firoz who is originally
from Guyana and now living in Scarborough, Canada. Brother Firoz lived
in the USA before moving to Canada. He can easily be identified as a
Muslim as he wears a Muslim hat and has white beard. In USA, one day
he was going to the market to buy some things when he was approached
by a white American man who asked him whether he knew of any Halal
Muslim restaurant. Brother Firoz knew of one but was unable to give
him the proper direction. He figured that the American was a new
Muslim in this area. So, brother Firoz invited him to his house to
have some food. There were also some other Muslim brothers living with
Firoz at that time. When they reached home, everyone in the house
welcomed the special guest. They were also curious to know about the
reason why he accepted Islam.
The new brother told them that he was taking a world religions course
in the University. His teacher happened to be Jewish. When they came
to the topic about Islam, the Jewish teacher at one point started
showing the class how Muslims pray. "The moment I saw the teacher
doing prostration (sajdah), I knew that I belonged to this religion,"
said the new brother. This is what led him to Islam, a simple
demonstration of sajdah.
Just one act of Islam was enough to make this individual a Muslim.
Imagine, how many people will be convincedwhen all the Muslims start
practising Islam completely!
