A Message to President Obama from a former Muslim
Born the son of a Muslim Imam in Morocco, Brother Rachid memorized one-sixth of the entire Quran by age 6. He attended Hassan II University in Casablanca, where he studied economics and computer science. A careful self-study of the differences between Islam and Christianity led him to take correspondence courses for 4 years. This, in turn, led him to give his life to Jesus Christ in 1990.
While in his homeland, Rachid began a project to translate the Quran into local dialects. He found that more than 80 million in the Arab world do not truly understand what the Quran teaches because they hear it in an old, classical dialect of Arabic, which they do not speak. Rachid firmly believes that the more Muslims know what the Quran says, the more their eyes will be opened and they will leave it.
Since 2005, Rachid has hosted television shows that compare Christianity and Islam, including 55 taped episodes of Unveiling the Mask and nearly 300 live episodes of Daring Questions. Rachid’s deep knowledge of both faiths enables him to boldly challenge false beliefs with wisdom, love and respect. Daring Questions features dynamic testimonies of Muslim-background believers and gives followers of Islam the opportunity to ask questions about the Christian message through lively on-air phone calls. The program also exposes the plight of oppressed Christians in Muslim countries, refutes misconceptions about Christianity, which are often perpetuated by major media outlets in the Middle East, and fearlessly tackles other controversial topics. Christian converts share their testimonies on the 90-minute show each week, and thousands of viewers have called the program’s live prayer line or visited its websites – many to accept Jesus Christ as their Saviour.
