Elton Namoko despised Islam. He had grown up hearing wild misconceptions, including the disturbing claim that Muslims took the intestines of the dead when washing their bodies. This fueled his hatred and mistrust for years.
iERA duat had a month-long Islamic Classes. Elton attended, and known for his argumentative nature, confronted him with every question and accusation he could think of. The duat calmly explained, addressing all his doubts with patience and clarity.
Soon after, a Muslim in the village passed away, and Elton had the chance to witness the burial rituals. To his surprise, he saw nothing but respect, dignity, and purity in how the body was washed and prepared.
Realising the rumors were all lies, Elton embraced Islam that very day, and that shocked the village. Known for his stubbornness, people trusted his judgment, knowing he wouldn’t accept anything without proof.
Inspired by his decision, others in the village followed his example and became Muslims.
