He became Muslim in 1972 and performed his pilgrimage in 1976. His Muslim name is Hajj Dawud Bell. In 1977, he moved to Rochester, New York, and along with a few friends, opened a small mosque. His ongoing passion is to encourage dialogue and friendship between Christians and Muslims. In 1988, he first published An Introduction to Islam. It has since been republished by Trafford Press. The central theme of this book is the similarity between the Qur’an, the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, the teachings of Jesus, and the basic tenets of the Old Testament. God has tried to get His message across for a long time now, and He has not changed the message.
In 2013, he published a children’s book, A Donkey named Jack. This book is a collection of four stories, with each story revolving around a passage in the Qur’an. The book is illustrated with watercolor paintings by Hajja Saffa Thiele and is meant to be read aloud for children.
A third book, The Sermon on the Mount: A Muslim Perspective is due to be published soon. Written primarily for Muslims, the book is an explanation of the beautiful teachings of Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount, with references to many passages in Qur’an demonstrating that the message brought by the Messiah Jesus and the Prophet Muhammad were the same.
His hobbies include Islamic calligraphy and talking to Western audiences about Islam. He can be reached at . . .visualizza meno
