Like everybody, I was born a Muslim (in a state of Fitrah, i.e., purity), but my parents raised me as a Roman Catholic. I was born in New York City of French and German heritage. My family moved to London, England, where I spend all my high school years in Catholic school. My mother is a devout Catholic, but my father became an anti-clerical non-Catholic when I was young.

My sister and I grew up in the Catholic church along with my other brothers and sisters. But unlike them we always felt something wasn’t right. At the end of each service the priest would always say “turn to your neighbor and wish them peace.” My sister and I not knowing exactly what we were saying would say, “As-salamu ‘alaykum,” because someone told us that meant peace.

Question 03: You Muslims claim that you worship One God, while in actual fact you resemble the Christians who say “In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit,” for you say “In the name of God, the Merciful; the Compassionate.” How would you account for this resemblance?

For as long as I can remember, I had not been satisfied with Christianity. I could never assimilate the belief that Jesus is the “son of God.” I used to think it was a fault in me – that I was of “weak faith.” When I was a child, I used to pray to God to help me believe that Jesus was His son. But I didn’t feel God responding to my prayer to strengthen my faith in the Christian church.
