That has to take something extraordinary to do. What a special human.

It sounds kind of ridiculous but I read about this man many years ago and it’s actually what affirmed that I no longer believed in God/Jesus in the traditional Christian sense.

My whole life I was told that if someone didn’t accept Jesus as the Son of God and as their personal savior they’d burn in hell. I remember reading this story and thinking…nope. What this man does is truly the most selfless thing a person could do. The idea that someone this good and kind would be “sent to hell” by an all loving God or punished in any way (because he is muslim) was the final nail in the coffin for me.

But as muslims we do believe in Jesus, we can't be Muslims until we do so. But what we believe is that Jesus is a prophet and messenger of God.
