Guest: Rafi. Rafi's journey to Islam is a remarkable one that showcases the beauty of the religion and how it can change a person's life for the better. In 2019, Rafi converted to Islam, which marked a turning point in his life. He has since been an inspiration to many young people who are contemplating embracing Islam. At the age of 24, Rafi hails from a unique cultural background, being of French and Indigenous Australian descent, from the Boandik Aboriginal tribe in South Australia. Growing up in Paris, he had never considered Islam as a religion to practice until his personal experience led him to find solace in the faith. Currently living in Brisbane, Rafi is a Human Resources Outreach Specialist for Randstad, where he works to promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Apart from his professional work, Rafi also finds time to engage in physical activities, and he is an MMA enthusiast. Rafi is a regular mosque-goer, where he finds peace and serenity in his daily prayers. In 2020, he began participating in food runs with an Islamic not-for-profit organization, which opened his eyes to the plight of the less privileged in society. Since then, he has become an advocate for the poor and vulnerable, dedicating his time and resources to help those in need. As a passionate advocate for women's rights, Rafi believes in the equality of all people, regardless of their gender. He owes this view to his mother, who instilled the value of gender equality in him from a young age. Rafi is an active volunteer with 'Islamic Relief' and 'Merciful Servant', where he helps to fundraise for humanitarian assistance and distribute meals to homeless people. He also acknowledges the traditional owners of the lands in Australia and is passionate about advocating for First Nations' rights. Rafi's journey to Islam is a testament to the power of faith and the positive impact it can have on a person's life. His commitment to community service, advocacy for the less privileged, and his passion for equality and justice make him an excellent role model for anyone considering embracing Islam.

Guest: Grant Miller. In today's episode Grant Miller talks about the topic of betraying Jesus when one converts to Islam. He explains why a Christian would feel this way and he dives into who Jesus is from an Islamic view point. Grant states: This really was a big question for me and it was something that held me back from converting. As I think about the issue and what I was feeling at the time, I believe it is something that may be holding others back as well. I have seen a number of Muslim Dawaa (those who set up tables and hand out Islamic literature and answer questions) presenters on YouTube talking with people on the street and almost inevitably it gets to the point where the person being talked to is just about ready to convert and say their profession of faith for Islam (Shahada) but something holds them back and inevitably they will say they will think about it and come back. And I believe it is this feeling of well if I convert to Islam will I be betraying Jesus?; that hinders and blocks a lot of people from accepting the truth of Islam. So why do these feelings come about?
