Beautiful story. I am also an ex Muslim and in the process of converting to Judaism!
❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome!
Baruch HaShem
Blessings, peace, and friendship to you. 💙🙏💙
🎉❤
Bless you 🙏🏻
Just clicked play, I am an ex Muslim starting my conversion process. Hope I can relate to his journey.
Thanks to all, you are very kind.
Awesome!
Baruch HaShem
Good luck on your journey 💜
Blessings to you!
Great. May you have success
Blessings, peace, and friendship to you. 💙🙏💙
I am a Mizrahi Jew, I was born and raised in Muslim country where Jews were less than 0.002% I can totally relate to this story. Welcome my brother to kindness, love, hesed, and devotion to HaShem ❤ G-d bless you and your children ❤
Morocco maybe? My roots are from there, I don't know why there's are still jews there.
Anyone can claim that bullshit
Beautiful! He was a Jewish soul that was born Muslim. But now he is where he belongs. So happy for him. It should be very challenging for him but HaShem is taking care. Always
Welcome home brother. We have been longing for you ☺️
Yes 🥲☀️🙏🌷
I was thinking the same coment❤
As a Muslim who considered conversion to Judaism at some point in time, I completely relate with this story, though I'm far for having gone through manipulation in my childhood. However, I can say that the fact that I found I could secretly be a Jew without having to be an official one has some advantages. Having gone through a life full of things I kept for myself, it was really liberating to make Judaism the lid of my inner secrets. When I finally learned how to daven, I know that my fate is tied to Jews even though I'm not openly a Jew and I kind of find it like having the Nefesh of a Ger and teaching my fellow Muslims what it's like to be a Jew, without having to be considered a stranger. I kind of find it more important now that I am openly Muslim and secretly a Jew in order to pull my Muslim surroundings more towards Judaism. My point is, if I have to go through the same path again, I want to make sure that I will always head towards Judaism, so if I keep at being a Judaist rather than jump to Judaism, the path will be better drawn for me to find it again: taking the plane to Jewish spiritual territory through conversion wouldn't help me build a path that would always lead to my Jewish root.
Blessings, peace, and friendship to you. 💙🙏💙
Be careful, brother 🙏
We all have a place in Olam Ha-Ba if we do our best amigo! I hope if you decide to make that step one day you will find yourself right at home! In the meantime that sounds like a noble aspiration. You dont have to be a full on Rabbinical Orthodox Jew to learn and keep Torah in your heart or to follow G-d. My own background is complex. I am twice exiled. My fathers fathers were Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. And my mothers mother was A’taentsik of the American Wendat-Huron people. Both of these people groups now exist as diasporic communities. Twice exiled.
I grew up so far removed from Judaism or organized religion that I didn't even know the connection until I was in my 20s. I used to identify as a witch even. I was that far off.
Eventually I learned of my surnames converso origins in Iberia and started to put the pieces of a smashed picture together one at a time. My spiritual connection with Torah from childhood with no instruction, constantly being identified by others as Jewish oddly enough, as well as a constant and natural inclination to daven from my earliest memories. TMI but I am also the only one of my 7 half brothers who is circumcised. My mother just "felt like" she needed to consecrate her first son for some reason.
Hashem took my father when I was small. But He always held me close in my fathers stead. And so all that and more in mind I pursued conversion. Some Rabbis have said I am effectively a Jew without a beit din. And of course the consensus and Chief Rabbinate would require it. But at the end of days we are all but men and we know not Hashems perfect vision. To pretend we do for even a second would be folly.
The road to Zion has showed me my purpose, and that is to gather the other lost sons of Sepherad. We BOTH have our place in the ingathering of the exiles, and I wish you fortune, and that G-d may bless your path!
your messirat nefesh - sacrifice - will be more than rewarded. I'm so inspired and touched by all the efforts n risks you have to endure . You're a hero in my eyes. from a fellow jew - Chaya
Baruch hashem!!!!!!! Amazing but please be careful please be careful
You are a brilliant Jewish Neshamah
An inspiration to your Jewish family am yisrael
Judaism is a beautiful way to live.
Why???
The best way, in fact! The a very dangerous way!
Wow , i haven't watched yet but so inspirational , i am ex muslim too, I am a noahide currently and planing to start my convertion process!
Good luck..We admire you.
Baruch Hashem - Blessed be He 🇮🇱 ✡️ 🇮🇱 peace be upon you!
This young gentleman is a tremendous asset to the Jewish People. ברוך בואך!
I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart
Thank you so much Lord for all your wonderful people
I’m an ex Muslim that’s in the conversion process. Great interview
behatzlacha! cheering you on! Chaya
Why??
Mazal tov!!! 💜💜💜
Am Israel Chai ❤❤
Come into the light my man. Jews are kind and compassionate.
Nice👍👍👍👍
May God always showing us the Thurt.........God Bless You all
You are a really inspiring person, keep spreading good in the world, thank you🙏🏾🇮🇱♥️
Your english is AMAZING!!!
Hashem bless him. I’m also a convert. :)
Wonderful. May I add that by choosing being alone helps so much to meet with our soul. Very brave personality. Great to have you with us !
Welcome and May your heart be blessed
ENJOY IN HASHEM ❤❤❤❤❤
How does this amazing and wise young man is so fluent in English?
BRAVE 🧡🧡🧡. 🌹
Your a genius
This is Islam and all the previous and current conflicts explained in one video.
God bless you friend ❤🇮🇱
Wrong, Islam actually protected Jews throughout history
Amazing story. I’m always interested in people’s personal stories, especially stories about searching. I am also impressed with his fluency in English. He grew up in Jaffa. How did he become so fluent in English?
compartmentalization, likely resulting from trauma...
Jaffa is a city mixed with Jews, Arabs (Palestinians and Druze, so he was exposed to jews in daily life. He must have gone to school in Israel, where they teach English.
English is taught in Israeli schools.
Israelis are exposed to English all the time; it's taught in school and most movies and TV are available in English
He said he traveled the world; but I think I heard him in another interview where I think I heard that he went to a college in the States; but I could be mistaken.
Welcome to the Jewish people! Thank you to be yourself! Your integrity is beyond! Very inspiring!!! Your courage also needs to be mentioned ! How to defy your family and surroundings takes a lot of courage! You must be bestowed with a higher intelligence to leave your previous life and embrace Judaism or could have been any other religion!
He looks like he comes from a family that suffered forced conversion to Islam, and now he has liberated the neshama and do conversion plus t’shuvah!
I had the same feeling about him. He said he does have Jewish roots. I have a similar story of always feeling at home around Judaism and being drawn to it although I live on the other side of the world from him. I found out later that I have family who refused to convert in Italy and the survivors fled but became Christian after years of marrying into Christian families but at the same time never renounced Judaism, just forget/became distracted with fitting in to society. Some of my ancestors were early Kabalists.
How does one look like that what
Timor, this is very fascinating. Have you considered writing a book? It would be very interesting. My mother has always said ugly things about Jews too. She’s a Christian I’m a Jew she never liked me. I have no contact with my family. But it’s a blessing to be free from evil.
I do not think that Christians are against Jews, as I remember when I used to attend church we would pray for our Jewish brothers. Your mother wasn’t a good Christian. Christian are very charitable.
I'm happy for you that you have a Jewish soul and have chosen to live in the light and with love and not like your mother. All the best to you
I love how you keep it so real and tell us about your story... me and you are the same age.. and while you lived in Jaffa while the intifada happens, i used to live in gaza (yea, before the jews got exiled) so we suffer from the same threat our whole life... hope you'll keep doing it your way. stay strong
We welcome anyone and everyone who’s willing to open there hearts and minds to peace love and Hashem.
We are blessed to have a kind hearted man like this ex muslim. I know many Muslims that do not support any way shape for form ; fundamentalism.
We will prevail, Hashem is with us : clearly ❤
Wow what a holy Neshama!! I learned so much from you! Beautiful interview, it was captivating And very interesting. G-d bless you!:
I dont understand why isnt he living with Jews!!? Help him!!! This is a tragedy waiting to happen. The moment he said that you guys needed to stop everything and get help for him!! What are you thinking?!
Wow ! You are so fascinating. Welcome home ! We know compassion and kindness is Strength! ❤ G-d bless you !
סיפור יפה ומרגש. תודה, טימור. ברוך הבא. ברוך הבא.
It's amazing how many Muslims have converted to Judaism!!
God Bless them....

@@SuperAmir2011 no. So, so many of them ! But they have to hide it from people like you :)
THANK YOU - VERY GOOD INTERVIEW - VERY INFORMATIVE . ❤🇨🇦
🤨🧐🤔 Hmmm...protect this guy!!! He's talking about the parts of Islam that A LOT of Muslims don't want to have the rest of the World to find out... Shalom, Sir, and thank you for bringing all this to light... 🫂❤️
Grateful to Timor-David for being so personal and explaining so beautifully here how his life journey feels to him now.
Great interview. The Lord be with you.
I love the way you described the mitzva and I will take that upon myself as well.
Hearing this makes me feel much more hopeful about the future
I am ex Muslim turned Noahide
Brave is an understatement! Great interview. I’ve been following Timor since 10/7 and love his content.
@NYCZIO Where is his content so I can check it out?
My boyfriend is from Turkey but Kurdish and he is converting to Judaism.
Brave
Incredible story
Thanks R’ Ori 🥹♥️
Just looking at him, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between him and many Ashkeanzi and Sephardi. Really. JEws are "Palestinians". Its a region. Thats all.
Jews are “Judeans”‼️‼️‼️
Palestine is Roman Imperial fabricated lie
Could you tell him from our Ethiopian brothers?
He was born with Jewish soul ❤❤
Yes you are brave!! May HaShem bless you with peace! We are so honored to have you as part of Am Israel!
I am Hindu , I am very happy you got a new Life 🎉🎉
What an incredible man and story. Wishing you peace and blessings.
A great interview very inspiring ..Thank you Timor Aklin for sharing your journey..❤🇮🇱❤🇮🇱❤🇮🇱🇦🇺
Brave and humble!!
Very inspiring!
BRAVE!!! Great Interview!!
thank you Timor for all that you do! you know more than us, how much what you do is needed!
Amazing story
What a wonderful story and wonderful young man. May HaShem bless you
Brave! What a Mensch!
Impressive on all counts. ❤
You are So brave
You are wonderful Reb Timor! No one is ever ready for marriage spiritually, financially, emotionally...we are a work in progress also after the wedding day...may you find your designated match soon! A good preparation is to learn Shaar haBitachon of Rabeinu Bechaye...good luck!:)
It is very possible that there are a are some Palestinians may have Jewish ancestors.
So beautiful! So inspiring. Welcome to you Timor and everyone who choose to join the Jewish people on our path, whether you convert, or if you become a Ben Noah, we are so happy to have you with us. Sending you all a lot of Jewish love ❤️
He's clearly uncomfortable remembering his past. Why dwell on it. Let's talk about his future.
He is a remarkable survivor. Some other abused child would would be a nonfunctional dimwit staying in bed all day or a criminal or dead or a terrorist or in prison.
I am an ex muslim atheist, but I love to see muslims converting to Judaism or Christianity. I totally support it, pretty much any religion is better than i$lam.
😢big hug and warmth and prayers for this gentle and kind man 🙏
Beautiful story.
Amazing journey! Your a strong Jew! 🇧🇷🇮🇱
Love you sweetheart.
I also converted to judaism. I love yor story
One intelligent man. What a journey.
I wish that I had enough money to convert to Judaism. Converting has been my desire since age twelve. ✡️💔
Why do you need money to convert? Anyway, you don't have to... You are perfect as you are.
You just need to follow the 7 Noahide laws. Talk to a rabbi(multiple ones) about the 7 Noahide laws and how to live by them. God bless you✡️🕎
God Bless you and protect you, what an amazing touching journey. I can relate as an ex muslim to so many things i am hearing.
May God keep you safe, because you're surrounded by very dangerous people of your former faith. Despite your painful experience growing up, you have huge sense of humour.
WOW!!!!
Very powerful story. Thank you for share.
Be blessed ! Hashem gave you the ability to understand and remember profound knowledge, He also gave to the way to give it over in simpler terms....keep sharing emet, your neshama is shinning ! may we see the geula shlema!
Inspirational!!! Chazak U’varuch!!!
Timor David why are you not mature enough to get married? You are way more mature than the average guy. Jump in there and may you meet your special zivug very soon! And find a warm accepting kehilla to raise a family in! Chazak v’amatz and keep inspiring ad bias goel!
What an inspiring story and smart man. Love the mitzvah you chose, very important message for us all, and we’re blessed to have you in our beautiful nation.
BRAVE, thanks for sharing!
Thank for this interview. Timor-David, you are very courageous and inspiring.
I wander what are your thoughts about the general view of israelis, who think that israeli arabs are different in their mentality towards their jewish neighbors?
🇮🇱♥️🇮🇱♥️🇮🇱♥️🇮🇱♥️🇮🇱♥️🇮🇱🙏
brave!
This guy is intelligent in every way. Intellectually, emotionally, spiritually & socially. He's great at expressing himself & analysing the world around him. Just inspirational 🙏🏼may G-ds eternal blessings be with him always 🙏🏼
GOD IS LOVE - 😊 - TRUTH - JUSTICE .....
I'm not religious myself, but this guy sounds very intelligent. The thing is, though, I heard that apostates from Islam are under a permanent death sentence. Isn't he taking his life in his hands by continuing to live in a Muslim neighborhood.
He’s such a gentle soul. I’m glad he chose a life of peace and love. The Jewish religion is his salvation.
תמשיך בדרך המלך אח יקר
I'm always suspicious of Muslims who convert to judaism. Trying to open my mind on this point.
I hope that you do. Converts need acceptance and support. ✡️❤️
Racism?
BRAVE - ABSOLUTLY - CLICHE OR NOT = TRUE 😊
wow such a holy soul may Hashem guide you all your life Shalom
Wonderful 🌺✨✨🌺✨🌺✨🌺✨🌺✨🌺
Where did he grow up?
I’m officially Noahide, but feel so strongly related towards Jews and Judaism. The word emet means both death and truth. You don’t see such depth in any other language. It’s like divine poetry.
Bravo 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It to never a simple thing..
What’s with the crazy ideology & violence?
Thank u for sharing your story and your truth.🙏🏼❤
Timor-David Aklin-
Much respect🙌
God bless and protect you🙏
Wellcome to our family!
love the new studio!
