Background

The life of the Christian is as the life of Christ. It is a struggle. It is a struggle with the forces of evil, in which the light toils and labors for justice, and triumphs even under the force of wood, nails, crowns of thorns, and piercing lances, for “the darkness comprehended it not.” (John 1:5) It is a struggle in which a man’s closest relations become his enemies, and in which one must deny himself to endure the pains of the struggle. The life of the Christian is not one of peace, but of the sword, for, in the words of Christ, “I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household.” (Matthew 10:35-36) Thus is the life of a young man named Hussein hashim, which for security reason chanhed to on shebat.com page , Abdullahi Aden Ali, a native of Somalia who decided to leave the heresy of Muhammad, take up his cross and follow Christ. His father was entrenched into the false doctrines of Muhammad, obtaining the title of Haji after he went on a pilgrimage (hajj) to Mecca. But even though he was brought up in such a devoutly Islamic household, his own intellect and soul was troubled with the chimerical theology of Muhammad. A struggle was occurring within his own being, with the Spirit wrestling with the flesh in an endless dual to the death. One day he visited a fellow Somali who expressed his disbelief in Islam, and the two commenced a deep discourse on the religion. This man expressed some theological points which, though unknown to him until now, Abdullahi felt a strong inner conviction to be true. During this time it was known that Somalia was on the brink of a civil war, and this man made known that the teachings of Christ would dissipate the clouds of strife and violence in their land. He told Abdullahi that Christ taught to turn the other cheek in times of persecution; that He walked amongst the poor and was never corrupted by the taint of pride or envy, all concepts and actions that were quite absent in his mind before they were told to him. His new friend also explained that the violent and morally decayed society of Somalia was a result of nothing else but the Islamic religion. Such thoughts forced Abdullahi to wonder as to where he stood within the realm of religious realities. Was he in the true, or false religion? If Islam is inspired by God, then why does cruelty and never-ending war plague Somalia, a devoutly Muslim nation? Abdullahi himself wrote of this experience with his friend:

He believed that the collapse of Somali moral and cultural standards is caused by the Muslim religion. Initially I didn’t agree with him, but gradually I discovered that the lack of love and peace in Islam plays a great role in our people’s way of thinking. It was at this point that a soaring urge compelled Abdullahi to quench the thirst which his soul suffered, and thus he was determined to endurably walk the path that leads to Divine Truth.

Abdullahi’s friend introduced him to an expatriate living in Somalia. There was something unusual and extraordinary about this man which struck him. Firstly, unlike the Muslims, he never hesitated to discuss matters of faith and theology, as opposed to the Islamic clerics who always avoided questions and discourse on such a subject. Secondly, he always took care of his wife and family, a fatherly action almost unknown to the nature of Somali culture. Thirdly, the way he prayed was most foreign, and yet most inspiring, to Abdullahi.

It was his Somali friend that introduced Abdullahi to Christianity, but it was this expatriate who first illustrated to him the spirit of Christianity. In his own words:

Through my Somali friend I got in touch with Christianity, but through this expatriate I discovered Christianity, and I began to compare the two religions. This man also gave me a Bible and I started to read it.
