Media News Observer reported, an easy procedure for becoming a Muslim making a lot of people are tired of living without the handle fled into the mosque and a Muslim. "You just have to say the recognition of God and Muhammad as His Messenger, then the right then you've become a Muslim," writes this media.
"The statement, known as the creed was read in front of witnesses, often the congregation in a mosque," said Mohammed Qatanani, spiritual leader of the Islamic Center of Passaic County in Paterson, NJ, quoted by News Observer.
Almost every weekend, there are people who come to the mosque and asked for Islamicised. That's why, says Qanani, it did not cause a problem for the examination at a later date. "If someone told me that they were willing to convert to Islam, I will try to make sure it is a voluntary action," said Qatanani.
Within a month, on average, to convert it between three to four people. "I try to ensure that the person does not do it for any purpose but because he believed in the oneness of God. Then the person making the declaration, and they became a Muslim. "
Some mosques are also experiencing the same thing, the arrival of many guests who ask Islamicised. That is why, now, they have a new program, which is adjacent to the converts. According to Waheed Khalid, president of Darul reconciliation mosque in Teaneck, NJ, told the converts tend to be emotional.
"In some cases, these people left everything behind," said Khalid. "Mother or father or family may not agree with the decision after this declaration, and they need support."
Mosques are also encouraged converts to learn about Islam and invite them to class where they can learn about faith, Arabic, and study the Quran. "Some groups have also offered support Nasuha repentance," said Khalid.
Just as found in other religions, the religious zeal of converts typically have a higher than those who had already embraced Islam. "It is important to direct them, so do not let this high spirit into the wrong directions," said Aref Assaf, president of the American Arab Forum.
Muslims are expected to do things like avoiding alcohol and pork, and get them saved to perform the pilgrimage to Holy Land. "At least once in their lives, they have to visit there," he said.
On the other side, Assaf said, other Muslims also need to be more actively encouraged to learn the religion. "Like other religions, we have Muslims who are very loyal, but we also have Muslims who do not pray and do not go to the mosque but they say they are Muslims," he said. With the converts, they can co-exist. (Republika.co.id, June 24, 2010)
