Benefits of Becoming a Muslim

This article is designed for those who wish to become Muslim; as to 


what would be their benefits after accepting Islam. It should be 


stated here that we are not trying to entice people to become 


Muslim, nor are we trying to convert them into the fold of Islam. 


Any person who wishes to become a Muslim should recognize that 


he or she will get all these benefits and much more. However, he or 


she should realize that they have to earn them by practicing the 


teachings of Islam. Implementing the practice of Islamic teachings 


is as important as believing.

Benefits

The following items are some of the benefits to be earned and 


enjoyed by those who wish to become Muslim:

1. As far as the Creator (whose proper name is Allah) is concerned, 




you will be able to identify Him and get to know Him, His role and 


your relationship to His names, you will be able to communicate 


with Him any time, 24 hours a day, throughout the whole year. As a 


result of this category, you will be able to know your origin, your 


roots and the wisdom as to why you are on this planet. You will be 


able to have good answers to the questions why, how, when, where, 


what and other philisophical questions.

2. As a result of the first benefit, your loyalty, allegiance, and 


obedience will be to the Creator himself. You will transcend 


yourself from all types of allegiance for this world. This means that 


if there is a conflict of interest between your boss, your job, your 


government, your system or any worldly relationship with the 


Creator, you will undoubtedly put your trust in Allah, the Creator 


of the universe. You will follow Him before you follow anyone 


else.

3. As a result of the second benefit, you will be able to acquire 


peace, harmony, tranquillity and happiness within yourself, with 


your family, with people of the world, with the environment and 


with the universe. One has to remember that the source of peace is 


Allah, and one of his beautiful names is that He is The Peace.

4. As an endorsement to the third benefit, you will get rid of the 


extra electrostatic charges from your brain and the central nervous 


system by performing the daily Salah. Through Salah, you are to 


prostrate by putting your forehead to the floor; and as such are 


grounding yourself, and you are discharging these extra charges 


into the ground. As a result of this act, you will get rid of many of 


the neurological diseases from your body.

5. As a result of the fourth benefit, you will acquire a pleasant 


personality. You will be friendly and amicable. You would not need 


to drink alcohol, to use drugs or to get involved in vulgarity or 


immorality.

6. Through the experience of fasting in Islam, you will be able to 


have self-control, self-restraint, self-discipline, self-education, self-


evaluation, and self-obedience to Allah the Creator. You 


undoubtedly will be able to improve health, personality, character, 


and behavior.

7. As a result of the sixth benefit, you will be able to control your 


lusts, selfishness, desires, greed, ego, and conceitedness.

8. Another side reaction of the sixth and seventh benefits is that 


you will be generous and hospitable; you will try to purify yourself 


and your mistakes by sharing your happiness and your wealth with 


those who are less fortunate than you. Your rewards will manifold, 


compounded daily until the Day of Judgement.

9. By performing pilgrimage to Makkah, you will transcend 


yourself from being nationalistic, sectarian, or denominational into 


being universal. You will be part and an essential constituent of the 


rainbow of Islam. You will be also part of the brotherhood of Islam 


with those who already submitted themselves to the Creator. At the 


same time, you will get rid of any inferiority or superiority 


complexes. You will also find yourself in synchrony and harmony 


with all the prophets and messengers of Allah since the creation of 


Adam and Eve until the last final messenger to mankind, prophet 


Muhammad (pbuh). While in makkah, you will be able to visit the 


places of revelation of the Qu`ran as well as the places visited by 


prophet Abraham and members of his family such as Hagar and 


Ishmael. You will visit the place where the first astronauts, Adam 


and Eve landed on earth.

10. In becoming a Muslim, you will do your best to stop all types of 


exploitations in all their forms: economic, biological, mental, 


spiritual, psychological, political, etc.. You will also work to 


liberate people and give them freedom of worship, freedom of 


speech, and freedom of expresssion. You will be a leader and help 


lead people to peace, tranquillity and happiness.

11. In accepting Islam, you will help to reduce all types of social ills 


in the society: juvenile delinquency, child abuse, domestic abuse, 


incest, homosexuality, sexual promiscuity, premarital relationships, 


extramarital relationships, and other vices.

12. As a result of the eleventh benefit, you will reduce and 


eliminate venereal diseases, AIDS, and other diseases of similar 


nature in the society.

13. Finally, when you die, you will die at peace. You will have a 


happy life in the grave and later, eternal happiness. Angels at the 


time of death will comfort you. They will also show you your place 


in paradise. On the Day of Judgment, you will be able to see and 


meet all the prophets and messengers of God to mankind including 


Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad. You will be able to 
see and meet any and all of your friends and relatives. You will live 
an eternal life of bliss in paradise.

Reflections:

The benefits mentioned above and many more cannot be purchased 


with money anywhere in the world. No one is to sell them to you or 


to advertise them on TV. You have to take the initiative yourself 


and try to acquire them by accepting Islam first and then by 


practicing its teachings. You should be honest with yourself, 


sincere, and truthful to the Creator. You should try wholeheartedly 


to practice what you believe, regardless of whether someone else is 


good or not While seeking happiness is a must, it should not be 


measured with other people's standards or with material gains. 


Happiness is from its potential to its kinetic forms. People around 




you should feel your happiness as well as benefit from you.

Are you ready to accept this challenge today? Remember, 


tomorrow may not come, and it will be too late.
