just last week, i was involved with the islamic experience in torquay..i was a steward for four days and i travelled on the train to torquay every day.. i was in charge of the Five Pillars of Islam section..basically, what i need to do was explain to the school children about the Five Pillars, demonstrate the Wudhu' or ablution and show them what people wear when they in ihram..alhamdulillah, i did not face any problem or what so ever..it was indeed a great experience..having to work with children and being able to talk about Islam..and also being able to work with Muslims who are of different culture..it was great meeting them..
what i want to talk about is a guy on the third day of me being a steward..he is from a secondary school and this school was putting a lot of interest in knowing about Islam including him..even from the first session, he was giving a lot of cooperation..he helped Aini to read a verse from the Quran..he gave his own opinion about Sawm when i was explaining about the reasons for fasting in the month of Ramadhan..he tried some clothes on..and when the group was in Brother Ali's section, he talked to Brother Mohammed about his name in Arabic and how is it spelled..what made our day was his answer that he wrote in the evaluation form..
'I also learn that Islam makes a lot of sense.'
personally, i was touched with what he has wrote..he made our day..all of us felt that we had achieve the purpose of the exhibition..that we have changed one's perception on Islam..people have perceive Islam with a lot of things, associate the Muslims with terrorism and many more..i am really glad this is what he thinks of Islam..and not anything else..
