Alummah Online exclusive
On
Sunday 15th July 2007, corresponding to the beginning of Rajab 1428
hegira, [former] President of the International Association for
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (IANLP) Dr. Wyatt Woodsmall embraced Islam
with the help of the prominent Muslim preacher Dr. ‘Awaď Al-Qarnî.
Dr. ‘Awaď made a
exclusive statement to Alummah Online in which he said that Dr. Wyatt
had embraced Islam at Al-Fateĥ mosque in the Kingdom of Bahrain and that
the official document which states he had embraced Islam was issued at
the legal courts. He added that a German had phoned Dr. Wyatt when he
found out that he had embraced Islam, expressing his fear over the
doctor from the US government. [Dr. Wyatt] replied, saying, "I'm not
bothered about anybody. They say they consider me to be a weirdo, and
perhaps this is one of my weird decisions."
The dialog with Dr. Wyatt about Islam started two years ago and in the
end he was guided by the will of Allah to make the big decision,
embracing Islam, after thorough research.
It was also mentioned that Dr. Wyatt, who is now 64 years of age, used
to mention Dr. ‘Awaď Al-Qarnî to his wife a lot. He told Dr. ‘Awaď after
he had embraced Islam that he had phoned his wife to tell her the news
and that she rejoiced and told him, "Do as Dr. ‘Awaď Al-Qarnî instructs
you, but [don't obey him] if he tells you to marry a second wife!"
The staff of Alummah Online would like to congratulate Dr. Wyatt for
embracing Islam, the final religion. We are pleased to emphasise on the
importance of inviting people to Islam in a wise and courteous manner
and of promoting hope and optimism throughout the people. We also
emphasise the important role of Muslim preachers in delivering the
message of Islam and in using the best of methods and the best of words
in fulfilling their duty. We also asked Allah to bless the endeavour of
Dr. ‘Awaď Al-Qarnî and to accept his deeds and grant him sincerity.
