What
happens
to a New Muslim in NZ?
A new revert typically faces
challenges
from his family and close community that pushes him away from Islam in many cases.
Despite the big
Daawa efforts happening in 6 locations across New Zealand every week which resulted in hundreds
of Shahadas, yet sometimes they get kicked out of their homes, lose their jobs, face great trials and
are
are in real danger of losing their faith and giving up, unless we stand by their side and offer them the
support they need since
day one.
What do we
do?
We offer the revert a ‘Buddy‘ or a close friend who guides
him
through his journey since his first day into Islam.
The ‘Buddy‘ helps him strengthen his Shahada
and
understand the pillars and basics of Islam and engaging him to the Masjid
and community; beside handling his own personal challenges whether social, psychological or financial
needs
as they arouse.
We give a free periodic “Guide to Islam” workshop to teach what everyone needs
to
know about Islam from
scratch in 2 months-time, it’s open for new reverts, their non-Muslim friends and family beside any
Muslim
who wants to strengthen his faith.
We give gift packs for Reverts with their basic necessities,
books, courses whenever
needed beside encouraging gifts.
