Can a white man convert to Islam?

Question

There seems to be a lot of animosity towards white guys sometimes, so if a white man converts to Islam, are there any problems? Do they get treated any differently?

Answer 1

Yes, this isn't Christianity where their sects and denominations are divided based on ethnicity. We don't have Mosques for Africans, Mexicans and finally whites. Dividing everyone that looks and talks different. Islam is for any soul with a desire to follow Allah/God regardless of their racial background.

Answer 2

No. Not at all. You watch the videos of those Christians who embraced Islam and then you'll know how they have been treated. These converts are now among the most respected and most popular scholars worldwide giving lectures on Islam. These converts travel around the world to propagate Islam. If any of you have a concert watch the videos of these scholar how they came to Islam and then judge with open mind and heart. May God guide all of us.

Answer 3

Sure anyone can convert to Islam, race doesn't matter. My fiance is a white revert himself, and has found no problems infact he plans studying in saudi arabia in the future to become a scholar.

Answer 4

Why are you basing your conversion on what color you are? Arent you doing this for you & not anyone else? Who cares what other think. Idk why you want to convert to that anywase man. There is so so much fullfillment in Jesus. God created you, and has many blessings waiting in store for you if only you let him. Believe that such a loving God who created you in this temporary world, has you here for one purpose. That purpose is to be love, and be loved. Where the spirit of the Lord is, there Is Freedom. If youre tired and you are thirsty, there is freedom..He will shower you in mercy and grace. I know you are like what the heck is this idiot talking about. You will never know unitl you accept Jesus into your heart & realize that we ALL sin and fall short. He will fill voids in your life like never before. You will be joyful at times, but struggle just like everyone else. But God promises to never forsake us, nor leave us. Anything you are struggling through; maybe its violence, anger, your marriage, loss of a loved one, your job, your children, can all be renewed and restored. Im telling you, I have no family but yet God has given me more than I could ever ask for, and you would not believe all of the mountains he has moved in my life. Im not some crazy bible thumper. This is real. & I want you to experience the best day of your life. The best is yet to come. If you do accept him, you are promised all og His blessing as long as you are obediant, and Heaven awaits you=] If you want to know more google slavation (: See you in heaven brother.

Answer 5

In the true religion, race, colour, nationality, intelligence etc don't play a part in worshiping God. God created us this way and he doesn't favour one group over another. What's important to Him is that we have pure worship - one that's not tarnished by human traditions and doctrines. It's more important what God thinks not what humans think.



(Acts 10:34, 35) . . .At this Peter opened his mouth and said: “For a certainty I perceive that God is not partial, 35 but in every nation the man that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.



(Romans 2:11) For there is no partiality with God.

Qu'ran surah 49 : 13:

"O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things)."

"There is no superiority for an arab overn a non-arab and for a non-Arab over an Arab ; nor for the white over the black nor for the black over the white exept in piety."
