What is your ministry?
It is to create a parallel curriculum to the English Curriculum in MMWU. I am responsible for 60 students regarding their educational mentoring and spiritual growth. I ensure that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is exemplified in the performance of all job responsibilities and through personal example in the Salvation Army Church. I conduct initial intake assessments (including evaluating guest protection issues), determining immediate needs and supports. I provide spiritual guidance and use every opportunity to pray and share the Gospel with guests, enabling them to become part of the Body of Christ.
When did you trust Christ?
I used to be a strict Salafi Muslim who preached, taught, and delivered programs on a well-known Islamic Channel. I succeeded in converting some Westerners to Islam. Christians were my next target, so I started studying Christianity and was amazed! I accepted Jesus and then started comparative studies between Islam and Christianity for three years. After that, I became a legalistic Christian and then spent eight years struggling with other worldviews. Eventually, I read many books by great Christian authors like C.S. Lewis, William Lane Craig, OS Guinness, John Lennox, and Dallas Willard, and I went back to authentic Christianity, to the point where my wife and I were about to be killed in Egypt because of our ministry. So we moved to Stockholm, Sweden.
What do you hope to gain from participating?
This is a fantastic place to network with different ministries. I want to be used in the ministry of teaching how to know Islam and defend our Christian faith. I want to be up to date with all the excelling ministries in your Europe. I wish to speak one day at ELF to share my story and mobilise the crowd with the "Every Muslim to Christ" initiative.
What is your leadership role or what were your past leadership roles?
I was a MuslimTV Evangelist (Da'aia) on the Islamic TV channel, Huda TV. I was a Mosque prayer leader. I was an assistant Pastor at Rinkeby International Church in Sweden and a chaplain at a Salvation Army Shelter in 2016. Today, I am a Chaplain in Sweden's Salvation Army Day Care Center and Director of the Arabic Program at the Online Mission Muslims World University.
Why should someone invest in your ministry?
I would like to see the Forum taking Islamic Issues and Evangelism to Muslims seriously—especially the work of Muslims among Christians and how they trick them into converting to Islam.
