as salam alykom sisters and peace Alfredo
I might seem off topic but I am not.
Although Egypt is supposed to be a Muslim country yet there is a christian minority living here.
When Islam came to Egypt thru the call for rescue from chrisitians, Muslims never oppressed any one to join Islam. But rather Jizyah was enforced to compensate for providing protection to the christians in face of any outsider aggression. They didnt want to join in war.
Any way, now they go to poor districts in Egypt and poor villages, give out money to people to convert them. I mean la hawla wala qowata ila billah.
And when a christian willingly joins they make a big fuss, demostrate and even like take shields in cathedrals coming up with weird stories for the person in question to be handed back to them. And when the revert person is handed by the authorities. La ilaha ila Allah for what they face.
It is a vicious war on Islam
We dont need to pay people to join while they do this.
any way alliex Insh a Allah also pray Istikharah before sending money. Insh a Allah both sources are good. Just pray Istikhara in following the sunnah
