Title: Becoming Muslim
Author: Shaykh Nuh Ha Mim Keller
ISBN: 9789957230036
Publishing House: Wakeel Books
Few things have moved so many, for so long, and so powerfully, as the need for God. This is the story of a young American Catholic university student who became a Muslim interpreter in the Middle East. A spiritual odyssey of philosophical readings, working at sea, and travelling abroad, it is above all an encounter with people, from weathered fishermen, to worldly professors, to veiled women in Egypt. In a world in which men are deemed bound by their earliest enculturation, it tells the unforgettable tale of a one man's farewell to Christianity, passage through atheism, and finding of the Divine Reality in an Arabic revelation sent down in Mecca fourteen centuries ago. A translation of Al-Ghazali's classic 'The Muslim Belief in God' is included as an appendix.

Becoming Muslim by Sh Nuh Keller
A wholly honest and sincere treatise on this Scholar's journey to Islam. Presented with the same humble, non-judgemental, and pure approach that the man himself embodies, with one single-minded purpose, seeking Allah Most High.
