For three years, Katherine tirelessly sought someone who could guide her on her journey to Islam. She had been studying for three years and already felt deeply connected to Islamic values and practices, but she needed someone to answer her questions.
Through social media, she found the iERA team in Paraguay—a safe space where she could clarify all her doubts about the faith. The values and practices of Islam had already captivated her heart; she just needed that final boost of confidence.
When she pronounced the Shahada, her tears revealed the years of searching that had finally led her to accept Islam.
This is why no space for dawah should ever be underestimated. We never know where or when someone who has been searching for years will come across a Muslim ready to answer their questions. Allah plans a unique path for each person on their journey to Islam.
