The reply of Omar Suleiman that led a non-Muslim woman revert to Islam




Omar Suleiman is a Muslim scholar and speaker. Originating from America, he presides the Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research.

He said he was bashed at the University of Florida with bad comments about Islam and his attackers included Terry Jones, who was the first person to burn the Qur’an. He is known to have talked to a non-Muslim woman, who enquired about Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) and his wife Hazrat Ayesha (R.A).

During the recent years, Islam has been linked with terrorism and other unlawful acts despite these are strictly prohibited by the religion. It is now uncommon for a person who has little knowledge of this peaceful religion to fall into misconceptions and misunderstandings about it. The life of the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) has evoked many questions for everyone worldwide, especially his relationship with his wife Hazrat Ayesha (R.A) who got married to him at a very young age.

A non-muslim woman approached Omar Suleiman to help her understand the union of the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) to the young Hazrat Ayesha (R.A). At first, Omar Suleiman asked her if she has read about Hazrat Ayesha (R.A), and she said ‘no.’ then, he went on by explaining that such marriages were normal at the time. After listening to his explanations, Omar Suleiman put her a series of questions, which the woman refused to answer. Hence, he next gave her some reading material before she could talk about Hazrat Ayesha’s (RA) age.

Ultimately, the non-Muslim woman was astounded by the story and decided to revert to Islam and name her daughter ‘Aisha.’

In one of the supporting ralies, Omar Sulaeiman was arrested for supporting the immigrants’ rights in the United States upon getting the huge support he was taken down by the United States police for supporting people who are in suffering.

What Is the Correct Time to Break Fasting?

Q uestion : As-salamu `alaykum. I was in a gathering a few days ago. I was disturbed to see people divided on the issue of when to break the fasting. I saw one group breaking with the adhan over the Radio (Ramadan program), while another group still waiting with dates in their hands for the adhan to finish. What is the sound Islamic ruling on this issue? A nswer : The time for breaking the fast is the time of sunset. So if the sun sets at 4:56 pm, it is the correct time to break the fast. It is immaterial whether the adhan has been called or not. To wait for the adhan to be called after the sun has set, or to wait for the adhan to finish, is a violation of the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), as he has stated clearly, “My Ummah will always enjoy blessings so long as they hasten to break their fast (as soon as the sun has set).”(Al-Bukhari and Muslim) The traditions are explicit on the fact that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)...
