White Extremists British National Party yang menjadi muslim karena membaca Al
Qur'an and kemudian menjadi da'i. -------------------------------- From
white extremist to pious Muslim
FEW conversions to Islam are as amazing as that of Mohammed Islam, a former
Paki-bashing member of white extremists British National Party (BNP).
Formerly known as John Ord, he went from being an active BNP member to a
devoted Muslim.
Mohammed Islam (pictured) said: "Growing up, I was never particularly
religious. I only went to church for weddings, funerals and baptisms." Raised
in the north-east, John Ord joined the BNP at the age of 16 because his friends
were members. He quickly bought into the BNP idea that all Asians and black
people were a threat to his way of life. He said: "My father wasnt
particularly bothered because he disliked Jews and Muslims anyway, and my
mother put it down to a phase I was going through. "Like most parents, they
didnt know what I got up to while I was out with the lads." The Geordie
described how he used to actively go Paki bashing in an area where he knew
there was a small but growing Asian community. He said: "We would find them
and give them a good kicking and say stereotypical things such as,Why are you
in our country and why are you taking our shops and jobs?" However, he soon
became frustrated with what he said were the "only two policies
the BNP had at the time", which were to beat them up and to kick them out.
Disillusioned, he left the party when he was in his early 20s. Still a
racist, he went to London and got involved with other like-minded people who
saw Islam as a threat. He claimed that his new-found group would be
specifically briefed by the police to go to meetings, to make provocative
statements and cause trouble in front of Muslims. By doing this, he thought he
was helping the police. He said: "Our job was to help them get evidence. We
would always get a response to our statements and this gave the police a reason
to arrest Muslims. Often the police would use this method to target those
Muslims who were wanted by other countries."
---------------------------------- The turning point in Ords life came
when he unknowingly bought a copy of the Quran for 20 pence from a book stall.
He said: "I bought the book because of the picture on the
cover it was the most beautiful picture I had ever seen, with the most
gorgeous colours and a beautiful building. I thought Id buy a cheap frame and
ended up with a nice picture. I had no idea I had bought the Quran until I got
home." He decided to read it to find things to use against Muslims. He
said: "My mind was telling me that like any book written by humans, it would
contain errors and contradictions. I had this view of Islam being this great
bad religion." He would read the Quran and take verses out of context
and quote them to Muslims just to catch them out. He had no idea that he had
just begun on a life-changing journey. While reading the Quran, he realised
that Islam was totally opposite to what society had led him to believe.
He also observed that many Muslims were not following the teachings in their
own book. He started to debate with Muslims regularly asking them why they were
not following the Quran. He would question Muslims about
why they were selling alcohol or inquire about womens rights. He said: "I
even asked Muslims to intellectually prove that God exists and the Quran is the
word of God. Time and time again I felt let down by Muslims because they had no
explanation and even tried to justify their actions." He returned back to the
north-east in 1992. By this time, he was enjoying debating with Muslims as he
found them easy to catch out due to their lack of knowledge. He was also
observing anomalies in their actions compared to what he was reading in the
Quran. In that same year, he approached a group of Muslims at a stall in
Newcastle expecting to debate with them and win. He said he was surprised to
find that they were able to defend themselves with ease. He said: "Not only
were they able to intellectually prove that God existed but also that the Quran
was the word of God." The group instead challenged Ord to try and
intellectually prove that God did not exist and the Quran was
not the word of God. If he succeeded, they would become Christians, but if he
failed then he would have to become Muslim. Without thinking twice about the
surprising challenge, he had no hesitation in accepting it. He said: "I
returned to the stall many times with what I thought were convincing arguments
but they would always have answers. Eventually I got scared and backed off."
Four years later, he bumped into one of the Muslims from the stall and told him
that he wanted to become a Muslim. He took his shahadah in November 1996 and
became a Muslim himself. Now called Mohammed Islam, he said: "Because I knew
I was about to make a momentous decision that would affect the rest of my life,
I felt as if a big rock was crushing me and that I couldnt breathe. "Once I
was a 100 per cent sure that I wanted to become a Muslim and took the decision,
I felt as if everything just lifted and I immediately felt better." Most
people close to Mohammed were not shocked by his
conversion to Islam. He said: "I had made the decision to convert a year
before and had told people that I was going to become a Muslim." Although
most of his friends accepted his decision and supported him, it was not the
case with his family. He said: "My sister stopped talking to me and still does
not talk to me. My father did not want to discuss it because Islam was a
totally alien concept and an alien way of life to him. My mother seemed more
concerned about what the neighbours would think. Initially she said I couldnt
pray in the house and I told her Id pray in the garden. But my mother is okay
about it, now." Mohammed has lost all of his old friends. He said: "My
friends were going out drinking and chasing girls and I had absolutely nothing
in common with them anymore." Mohammed said that he has no difficulty in
practising his new faith because he had made a number of changes to his
lifestyle a year before becoming a Muslim, such as not drinking alcohol.
He said: "Although becoming a Muslim has been a big step, it has not been a
massive step in terms of practical issues." The devout Muslim feels that he
has been accepted more by non-Muslims and says many Muslims have accused him of
being fanatic or fundamental just because he chooses to simply follow the
fundamental principles of Islam. Since converting, Mohammed has married and
moved to the Midlands. The 42-year-old is now looking ahead to a career in
social work and is hoping to start his degree in September 2005. Once
qualified, he wants to focus on the Muslim community and focus on problems that
community leaders are not aware of or are simply ignoring. He said: "I want
to try and deal with these social problems that especially affect the youth,
with an Islamic perspective."
