About the Video: 22 Born American who
converted to Islam and went to Hajj
ENGLISH SCRIPT
Men :
this is the most amazing thing that is ever happened to me in my life.
Woman: 2 million Muslims in one place. if I can get there its just like
sea of people all doing the same thing.
men: Is just really hard to describe you know.... its.... its just
amazing.
men: At first that was total shock, the people at work I started
telling everyone at my work. I am going at Hajj. i am going to Saudi
Arabia. And they said I looked like I was floating on air ... because I
was so happy.
Woman: Someone told me the organization that was providing trips for
people and they said that we have been approved and accepted.
men: It was over the weekend .... Exactly a month before we were
supposed to leave and they said you are going get ready.
Then a man saying while standing after the music: "Umar bin khattab
(RA) he heard the man praise another person, so umar bin khattab , he
said did you ravel with him, he said no, he said did you do any
business with him, he said no, he said then how do you know. How can
you praise him then?" So in travel you know the real character of
people, beacsue under the tension and stress the real character is
real. And the... I don't think any other trip that has more stress and
tension than Hajj. So be ready and remeber that if you are patient for
this time the reward is Jannah.
man " John" : Because this trip made me become one with everybody's
heart. its just this amazing feel... you can't explain it in words.
Kelly Weaver: Its a safe place, walk around here 2 o Clock in the
morning [no one would] look behind your back... Totally different
feeling.
Bridget R. Anthony: i met one sudani sister. She is maybe in her 70's
and she knew a couple word of English, and i know a couple word of
Arabic.. So mainly we spoke sentences with a lot of hand language. but
i came to find out that she has three childrens and two have them had
died and we shared that and we sat and we cried together even though we
could not really communicate that well our hearts [came] together and
then after that we shared and the worship of our creator together and
we have a common prayer and a common language in that worship and i
just think that Subhanallah... Allah is so wise ... God is so wise.
Benjamin A. Smith: Its been beautiful.... i met people with all over
the world. Have some very good chance to meet with.... that have would
have a chance to meet this not happened ... its been great ... you know
you read about this in the books and see the pictures... but absolutely
nothing compared to the experience when you are there.
Man: And its helped me to respect all people more, all human beings and
the God's message is universal and it should go to everybody.
James Raynor: It really impacts you and helps you to really appreciate
more what you doing and helps you to want to give more to those people
who are half less than we do.
Greg "Abdullah" Fulamr : Times seems like it has no bearing here,
sometimes I don't realize that i am awake for almost two days straight.
William " Suheib" webb : How many times i met people who said to me you
know you are from America and they had a big smile on their face, they
end up sharing whatever food they have with me, whatever drink they
have with me. They did not hate me because I am an American.
Woman: Its definitely not a normal experience.. It means.... Its not
like anything i have ever experienced before.
man: It how did changed me. How much renewed my faith. it brought me
back to innocence ... I have gained some innocence back from this.
THE END
