ABDULLAH BIN WAHB AL-KALBI

previous episode

Such were the followers and companions of Husayn at Karbala. They were fewer in number but they were made of the best moral fibre one can imagine for a human being. They had mountain-like determination and nerves of steel.

Islam is the fastest growing religion in the west. People are converting to this promising religion in big numbers. When one asks a newly converted Muslim as to why he/she became a Muslim, the answer usually is: "Because I found that Islam answers all my questions, it has the promise of a more satisfying spiritual life, and it can guide me in my spirituality as well as in my worldly life.

In other words, the new convert joined the fold of Islam in the hope and expectation of a better and a more satisfying life. Same reasons are put forward by prison inmates who join Islam while in prison.

Can you think of someone joining the fold of Islam for dying? Well, Abdullah bin Wahab-e-Kalbi did just that. Is there food for thought in that story for those who reflect?
