Muslims who accepted Christianity. Why do they do this?

Muslims who accepted Christianity are not uncommon in the modern world. Gradually, more and more people from different countries are changing Islam to Catholic or Orthodox faith. Why is this happening?

Muslims who accepted Christianity in Egypt

Already more than a million Egyptian Muslims took Christianity. Only in 2012, more than 750,000 audio copies and 500,000 text copies of the New Testament and 600,000 copies of the movie "Jesus" were sold.

Why did many Muslims accept Christianity?

Islam becomes less attractive. According to various sources, during 28 years of Sharia rule in Iran, the leaders failed to solve social and economic problems and make the country an example of an Islamic state, so many residents became disillusioned with their religion.

Many change their faith from a sense of despair. Christianity gives faith in oneself and that life will change for the better.

Muslims who converted to Christianity in Iran

In Iran, the Gospel and the Old Testament became sharply in demand. Many want to buy the Holy Scripture in Farsi. According to various sources, the number of Iranian converts is between 500,000 and 1 million. In total, about 70 million people live in Iran. About 50 Muslims take Christianity daily, and they do it secretly. This is declared, because such actions are prohibited on pain of death. But in Europe, this is more loyal. So, only in the capital of Great Britain there are 3 Christian churches for the Iranians. Similar churches are also found in 9 cities in England, 14 European countries, 22 states of America. In the major cities of Canada there are 8 cathedrals and in Australia - 4. In total, over 150 similar churches function in the West.

Mass changes of faith are also observed among the Berber tribes. In 2006, even a law was passed banning missionary activities. Despite the fact that it restricts human rights (according to UN agreements), the law to this day acts.

In accordance with this, a person who coerces or incites a Muslim to change faith, runs the risk of entering prison for 2-5 years. The same punishment is provided for the distribution, creation and storage of religious literature, which can shake the faith of Muslims.

How are things in other countries?

Annually about 35 thousand Turkish Muslims become Christians. In Malaysia, about 100 thousand people changed their faith. In Indonesia, about 10,000 people become Christians each year. In this country, transitions from one confession to another are allowed, but disputes around this phenomenon are still being conducted. In Yemen, the massive outflow of Muslims to other faiths is strongly condemned. Therefore, newly converted Christians arrange joint prayers in strict secrecy in the homes of foreigners. Because If anyone finds out that a Muslim woman has adopted Christianity, she will certainly be executed. The same applies to young people who violated the norms of the Sharia.

Is it normal?

Each country has its own understanding of the norm. Somewhere the change of the confession is punishable by death, somewhere it is loyal to it. Therefore, there is no universal answer. At the same time, the number of Christians who are accepting Islam is growing. And, among them there are prominent scientists, athletes and public figures.
