The Spiritual Journey Toward Islam Part 3 [2010-09-02]

 

The spiritual journey has often been described by seekers as a narrow path, challenging to navigate yet the greatest hand hold bestowed to them.  It is a sacred committment a person makes in faith by dedicating themselves and their life journey to the path of enlightenment by strengthening their foundations of faith, wisdom and intellect.  In seeking knowledge through the exploration of the doctrine, disciplined spiritual practice along with an intimate sense of surrender, a rewarding journey of faith and discovery is ensured.

Dubai Today spoke with Nasif Kayed on the significance of Laylat al-Qadr and the final 10 days of Ramadan along with his American born wife Debbie who embraced Islam seventeen years ago.  We also spoke with British born Lewis Bullock who took the Shahada at the age of fourteen and Filipino National Essa Puentas Bina on hisjourney toward Islam from his committed Catholic family upbringing in the Philippines
