Up to 2 million people are walking away from Islam in
Indonesia every year. Detachment and disillusionment has left them feeling that
Islam is out of touch with the lives of the contemporary Indonesian.
Furthermore a seemingly exciting, well-resourced and apparently empowering
faith is reaching out to them; Christianity. The word of Christ today is one of
love, peace and most importantly - answers. These are answers that young people
have not been able to access from the Islamic establishment, until now. Young
Indonesians have yet to discover the beauty and the essence of Islam that
strengthens us Muslims worldwide.
Thus Maryam is the voice of every young Muslim in
Indonesia that is struggling with the pressures of contemporary life, does not
know Islam more than the name they were born with and finds solace only in a
growing voice of Christianity. We want to stop Maryam becoming Mary, by
reaching out to her, dealing with her concerns and helping her find peace with
her religion and with Allah’s decree. We want to save a generation that is
heading toward leaving Islam, from doing so, and we need your help. The
Messenger of Allah Jala wa Al’aa said: “Allâh supports His slave as long as the
slave is supportive of his brother…” [Muslim], so help yourself, by helping to
Save Maryam.
We either accept that Islam has had its time in
Indonesia, and allow the growth of apostasy to continue. Or, we reach out, with
faith, to our brothers and sisters in Indonesia and put a hand on their
shoulder and remind them of who they are; Muslims. Stand by their side and
educate them about the Allah they do not know and the Messenger, whose name
they may have, but whose life they have no knowledge of.
Consider the words of the Messenger of Allah, Upon Whom
Be Peace and get involved:
"A Muslim is a brother of another Muslim, he should
not oppress him, nor should he hand him over to an oppressor. Whoever fulfilled
the needs of his brother, Allâh will fulfil his needs; whoever brought his
(Muslim) brother out of a discomfort, Allâh will bring him out of the
discomforts of the Day of Resurrection, and whoever screened a Muslim, Allâh
will screen him on the Day of Resurrection." [Bukhâri]
The Holy Koran
In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
The Articles of Faith in which one "True in
Faith" (a moslem) must believe:-
1. God
2. His Angels
3. His Messengers
4. His revealed Books
5. The Day of Resurrection
6. Divine Preordainments (Prophecy)
i.e. whatever God has ordained must come to pass.
