James is a former US Marine who grew up hating Muslims after 9/11, riding a Harley with a kafir patch on the back and a kaf tattooed on his chest, before Islam became the only place he could find peace. In this episode, he shares his full revert story: from the LDS/Mormon faith, to a chance encounter with a Bosnian Muslim trucker, to praying in his basement while his family thought he was inviting Satan into the house. We also cover the loneliness of the revert journey, what true peace actually feels like, and why fixing the nuclear family with Islamic principles is the only way to fix the world.-Subscribe to the Revert Of The Week Newsletter: https://canyon-mimbs.kit.com/revert-0:00 – Teaser: From hating Muslims to finding peace only in Islam2:28 – James' full revert story, growing up in Nevada, 9/11 & hating Islam6:56 – Joining the Marine Corps in 2008, the kafir patch, the tattoo & the hatred11:24 – Training to the adhan, the moment the wall of hatred started cracking15:52 – Meeting a Bosnian Muslim trucker, discovering similarities with the LDS faith20:20 – Praying in the basement and family thinks he's bringing Satan into the house24:48 – Attending the masjid for 2 years without taking shahada (the Quran confirmed it)29:16 – Giving the adhan for the first time and how he accidentally took his shahada33:44 – The biggest struggle after shahada (Loneliness, rejection & turning to Allah)38:12 – What true peace feels like (Iman so strong you're calm on a erupting volcano)42:40 – How Islam changed his character and not judging anyone until you know their story47:08 – The wall fully coming down.
