dear muslim...

We believe that Islam is the greatest blessing that Allah has given us in this world.

BUT

How can we become Muslims in the true sense of the word?

First, we must think for awhile, what does Muslim mean?

What does it really mean?

Is a person can become a Muslim if he or she born in a Muslim family?

The answer is NO.

A Muslim does not become truly a Muslim simply because he is born a Muslim. A Muslim is not a Muslim because he belongs to any particular race; he is a Muslim because he follows Islam. If he renounces Islam, he ceases to be a Muslim. Any person, whether a Brahman or a Rajput, an Englishman or a Japanese, a white or a black, will, on accepting Islam, become a full member of the Muslim community; while a person born in a Muslim home may be expelled from the Muslim community if he gives up following Islam, even though he may be a descendant of the Prophet, or an Arab.

being a Muslim - is not something automatically inherited from your parents, which remains yours for life by right irrespective of your attitudes and behaviour. It is a gift which you must continually strive to deserve if you want to retain it; if you are indifferent to it, it may be taken away from you, God forbid.

To become a true Muslim, firstly,you must have knowledge and,secondly, putting that knowledge into practice...If you just said that you are Muslim, but you have no knowledge and do not practising it, you are not a Muslim in the true sense,,true Muslims know what Islam stands for and believe in it with full consciousness.
