Authors write that Muslim women – who are the spiritual gatekeepers of their religion – are abandoning their posts to follow Jesus
A former Muslim imam once told us, “Passing on the Islamic faith to our children was not my job. I read the Quran, I prayed five times a day, and I went to Friday prayers at the mosque. All the other stuff was left up to my wife. She was the one that taught the children and trained them to be good Muslims. That was her responsibility, not mine.”
And since the women of Islam are in a sense the spiritual gatekeepers of the religion and with so many of them abandoning their posts to follow Jesus, Muslim women are not forgotten any longer.
Islam is in crisis. Whole families are jumping ship to follow Jesus.
But wait a minute, aren’t Muslim women killed when they give their lives to Jesus?
Sadly, some are. But many of these brave sisters in Christ end up having a slow, simmering influence that spreads to their children, and even their husbands who remarkably have also come to faith in Christ.
Jesus is setting women free, elevating them, and they are thriving! They also are using their rightful place as spiritual influencers within their family to advance the Gospel.
Like the women at the empty tomb of Christ, Maha and a score of other Muslim women are finding Jesus is alive and they aren’t keeping silent – because every soul matters.
And Maha is not alone. Women have become the super spreaders of Jesus’ message of love and forgiveness in the Muslim World.
That’s one of the major reasons why thousands and maybe millions of former Muslims will be solemnly observing Good Friday this year, and then joyously celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus Christ as Savior!
