What is Embracing Islam : the journey begins about?
Embracing Islam: The Journey Begins is the story of one believer who recognizes the depth of the erosion of the foundation of faith, attempts to re-orient himself, and comes to an understanding of Islam which is becoming increasingly rare in the contemporary world. It is not surprising that, for a man born into a Muslim family and raised in Pakistan, this journey toward a real understanding of Islam actually begins in America. Like certain physical diseases, which require the antidote to be extracted from the germs of the same disease, one often recognizes one’s spiritual dislocation when physically placed in the heart of the civilization that has produced this malady in the Muslim mind. This realization is akin to the recognition of Islam by people like Hasan Abd al-Hakim, who grow up in the West and at some stage in their life realize the spiritual vacuity of that civilization and embrace Islam. Embracing Islam is not only the story of Waqas Ahmed’s rediscovery of Islam but is an inside account of a deep malady of our times, and, as such, it is a mirror in which one can see the travail of countless Muslims. Bereft of real Islamic education and pulled into the rat-race of mode
