Interview Script Guidelines:
Prospect: Can I have a FREE Quran?
Member: Of course, in English or Spanish?
Prospect: English.
Member: Are you a Muslim?
Prospect: Yes.
Member: You can get more copies for friends or neighbors interested in Islam ✅
Prospect: No, I’m Atheist, Christian, Buddhist.
Member: Can I tell you about Islam?
Prospect: Yes.
Member: The word Islam means acquiring peace by submitting your will to God. If I said this mall was built by no one, or if I claimed throwing some dust in the air turns it into an iPhone, would you believe me?
Prospect: No.
Member: If you believe the mall was built by someone, what about the universe? What happens if the sun was closer to us?
Prospect: Burn to death.
Member: What if the sun was far from us?
Prospect: Freeze to death.
Member: Who put the sun in the right place?
Prospect: I’m not sure, God?!
Member: So, we believe a superpower, which we call “God”, created everything. If God created us, don’t you think there’s a purpose?
Prospect: Yes.
Member: If God has a purpose, wouldn’t he communicate this to us?
Prospect: Yes.
Member: In Islam, we believe God sent prophets like Adam, Moses, Jesus, and with every prophet miracles. Do you know the miracle of Moses?
Prospect: Split the Red Sea.
Member: Do you know the miracle of Jesus?
Prospect: Heal the blind, give life to the dead.
Member: He was born miraculously with no father, but that doesn’t make him a God; it was an act of God. Adam and Eve were born miraculously with no father nor mother; they would be a better God!
Member: We believe Jesus and his mother, Mary, were pure. Jesus is mentioned in the Quran 25 times, Mary 34 times, and Mohammed 4 times. The last prophet was Prophet Mohammed; do you know his miracle?
Prospect: No.
Member: The Quran is the miracle of Prophet Mohammed; it’s the words of God. Written 1,400 years ago, unchanged, with no scientific errors, mentioning facts like the big bang theory, embryology, and the water cycle. Who could know all this 1,400 years ago?
Prospect: I don’t know.
Member: Islam is a matter of faith, logical and reasonable. Read the Quran, prove it yourself. It talks about life’s purpose, purifying the soul, worshiping one God, and practicing generosity.
Member: Do you believe in one God?
Prospect: Yes.
Member: Do you believe in Jesus as a prophet?
Prospect: Yes.
Member: Do you believe in Mohammed as a prophet?
Prospect: Yes.
Member: You are already a Muslim; this is the belief of Jesus, Mary, Moses, Mohammed, and me, which is Islam! Would you bear witness (testify) that there is no god but Allah, and Mohammed and Jesus are prophets of Allah?
Prospect: Yes.
Member: Recite Shahadah ☝️ and let him say after you in English, then in Arabic (word by word).
