you should make the revert story, definitely would watch
Im so happy for you sister! May Allah bless you and reward you apardis ♥👐
@Jenna Kovacs, please let me know what made you revert to Islam. I would be happy to know. Do you know what Kovacs mean? It doesn't sound English.

Alhamdullilah
My sister is a psychiatrist in the US state of Texas, she told me that one of her patients was a war vet who'd served in Afghanistan and Iraq. He suffered from PDSD. He told her that he hated Muslims and Islam after the 9 11 attacks that were the reason why he enlisted in the military but what he did in Iraq during his deployment began to haunt him. He told her that after he retired he began to understand Islam and Muslims. He also went to a mosque in Dallas where he saw people helping distribute food supplies to the homeless that's when he really began to study about Islam. He came to know that the MSM and the politicians lied about Islam and the Muslims. Later he embraced Islam.
Fabricated lies...beside Islam was built on a shoulder of a man who luv war more than his god...just try jesus n compare him with ur mohamed...tnx
@@emekaegbosimba4590 Jesus and Muhammad are our messengers you ignorant dumbass
@@lilyawoopwoop3495 u never compare ur mohamed n our Lord Jesus in anywhere ok.read about how ur prophet made his father inlaw kadijat father to get drunk befor he allowed him to marry his daughter that means mohamed is a drunkard.how can u believe in a man who took people daughters by force to marriage who promise u many wives in paradise who fought 52 war who has so many innocent blood in his hand.pls never again compare such a man to our Lord Jesus who never shade blood or take something that belong to another person by force.Jesus is prince of peace a good cancellor God amongst men the perfect master I luv him so much
Long time ago Many Americans stop believing in church don't even believe in existence of God.right now Americans and Europeans re in a very big confusion about what to believe.that is why Muslims re deceiving them now than ever befor tell me one good thing about ur prophet or islam?every single good thing we enjoy in this world today comes 4rm Christian background...the world need to come back to christ right now yes I know ur challenge he is a man a prophet n a God...just believe n be save...thanks
@@emekaegbosimba4590 Why are you talking about Bukhari's scriptures idc about him he's not my Prophet, only God's Holy Books count in islam, I don't believe that Muhammad sws got kids so shut up with your gossip. Jesus and Muhammad are mentionned in the Quran not Bukhari's bullshits
I am turkish guy but i leave in germany.. I want to say we love you... Many gratings from muslim community in germany
A revert myself and i love this brother. His manners are great, i see him as a great role model.
I feel every revert Muslim is a real gem. I am a born Muslim ALHAMADULILAH but watching or listening every time to a revert Muslim brother or sister makes me feel so blessed and makes me even more God-fearing and compassionate towards Humanity. May Allah SWT make us all follow His ways and Teachings of Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Me too ❤
Sonny Williams you are great man love from lndian Muslims.

My dear sis I ll like u to expirence the luv of christ.just make simple prayer n say Lord Jesus come into my life reveal ur self to me n make me a new person in Jesus name.amen.we Christians pray in the name of Jesus to our heavenly Father bcs he stood between man n God as a mediator.any Christian who do not leave life like Jesus is not a Christian...that was why we called chtistlikes...
@@emekaegbosimba4590 my dearest brother in humanity watch this you have been deceived by st Paul czcams.com/video/tJmqmHMXZqQ/video.html
@@mrorn8199 u can't deceive me with this cheap video.just check out some conversion 4rm Islam to Christianity u ll see how happy it is to be a christian.Islam understand spiritual things with their natural mind set.
Islam is fake plz follow Jesus he is the only way to heaven tnx...
I am a born Muslim from South Africa and I am so proud of you guys. May ALLAH SWA accept and bless the work you ARE doing and reward you with the highest stages of jannah. AMEEN
Asalaam.Brother Sonny Bill glad to learn that your mother and brother has also reverted to Islam .may Allah make it easy for the brothers and sisters in New Zealand our doahs are with you All.from Abdul Gasiep. Port Elizabeth South Africa remember you went with me to our mosque here.
I converted to Islam 5 years ago after watching Ahmed didat lectures
I love you my handsome brother Sonny and I truly support your fond love of your religion. I still am trying to get around the fact that you are Polynesian and a Muslim. God bless you
Vic Hands watch this czcams.com/video/LEKgxZbFG_k/video.html it will help you make your decision inshallah just ignore the first 5 seconds of the intro😆👍🏽
Thank you for your kind message sister. You’ll be surprised of the Muslim’s love for Jesus (peace be upon him) and his mother Mary. You’re not a true Muslim until you believe in the immaculate conception and there’s an entire verse in the Quran titled Mariam(Mary) explaining her journey in detail. Alofa
I greet all my brothers and sisters from Russia. I embrace everyone and shake my hand. I love you all
New Zealand people are very peace loving people

@@craigthurlow9308 You again spewing hatred. How pathetic are you messaging after a year lol! I won't stoop to your level and react because my beautiful religion teaches peace. Have a good day. P.s do some proper research about Islam and stop listening to what the media tells you about us.

I was JUST thinking the other day: man, it'd be great if someone did a podcast/interview with him - subhanAllah. Can't wait to hear this!
@Xalipha akhee, that's a great idea! we just bought some mics walhamdulilah, and planning on starting soon, any topic suggestions from your side? 😚
I thought it was just a caption of "alhamdulillah" on his Instagram but it turnt out that his mother really converted! Subhanallah welcome to the one ummah family, Aunt! I pray to Allah to put our new brothers and sisters in Istiqomah! Amin

Sonny Bill Williams you really the best human being in the world your heart is like equal understanding explanation you motivate the people
people can learn from you from Mashallah
If any Muslim reads this comment above please for the sake of Allah please don't post a negative comment
@chicken nuggets_ it doesn't indicate that, he just meant he's a good human being.
@chicken nuggets_ nobody will think he's better than the prophets. But we need to be careful
Yet ANOTHER BRAINDEAD CONVERT in the 21st Century🤪

Assalamalaikum, this is a great video.
When the topic of Christchurch was being discussed I definitely felt the shivers down my spine and felt the energy change.
New Zealand has definitely raised the standard on how issues like this should be addressed. So much love and respect for the people of New Zealand both Muslims and Non Muslims. Both brothers have a grounded, calm and positive energy about them Subhanallah.
Praying for nothing but happiness, success and Jannah for the whole entire Ummah.

Who are the most victims to IS. Surely most of the innocent Muslims are killed by IS. IS surely not run by muslims. If we see around the world the most oppressed are muslims. In Iraq, Syria, Kashmir, Palestine everywhere. It’s Media the culprit depict Islam worstly.
i literally cried from 19.27 to 20.05 watching them by their conversation..Masyallah!
Alhamdulillah , Islam religion is full of peace/love !! Allah is Almighty God ❤️
Alhamdulillah syukur and praises only to Allah swt.May Allah swt bless and guides us All.A lot of love from Kelantan Malaysia 🇲🇾.
Very emotional and touching!!
A lot of love for our brothers. May Allah keep them happy Muslims always. Ameen
My belief is that the people of New Zealand are a noble people close to the "Fitra", this original nature, and that it is perhaps that by this tragic event Allah wants to guide this people because he deserves it, Allah only knows
@Troy Edward that's such a negative mindset I'm so happy you're not the minority in New Zealand.

after SBW embraced Islam, I watch a lot of videos about his story .. I also saw a program that describes him with his family at home .. and after seeing his personality and sincerity and how close he and his family relationship, I was so confident to believe that he will someday will be able to bring his mother and other family members to embrace Islam. and Alhamdulillah Allah is Almighty! thank you Allah for making this happen.. Good luck hamza and family! May Allah bless us!

I cannot express the hurt I felt seeing the video but thankful that I did get to see because it brought the pain to my heart Alhamdulillah. Keep on smiling and May Allah Grant your mom best of provisions in this life and good health and protection from the evil within the days and nights Ameen.
