The Final Moments That Changed His Fate
In a touching scene that embodies the power of faith and the spirituality of a person's final moments, social media users circulated a video of an elderly Frenchman named "Jano" on his deathbed announcing his conversion to Islam and requesting that he be buried according to Islamic law.
In a weak but resolute voice, the man said:
"I do this completely naturally... I converted to Islam. Why? Because my life was influenced by Islam."
Then, with a reassuring heart, he added:
"And above all, I don't want to be cremated after my death... I want to be buried according to Islamic customs and traditions."
His simple words carried tremendous spiritual depth, as if they were the culmination of a long journey in search of truth that led him to Islam in his final moments.
Who is Jano? The Story of Conversion That Made Millions Cry
Although the video did not mention details about the man's life, a Twitter user revealed touching information about him, saying:
"This Mr. Jano - may God have mercy on him - was an atheist, a French citizen. By God's mercy, a genuine Egyptian woman named Hanaa Abu Al-Ela lived near him. She cared for him and was the reason - after God - for his conversion to Islam. A woman from the Emirates also gave him a copy of the Quran translated into French."
How Was His Heart Transformed?
Hanaa Abu Al-Ela was not just an ordinary neighbor; she was a model of a faithful person who carried the message of Islam through her morals before her words. Her care, kind treatment, and kindness instilled in his heart a curiosity to learn more about her religion.
Then came the translated copy of the Holy Quran, a gift from an Emirati woman, which was the light that removed the veil of doubt from his heart and guided him to Islam in his final days.
Reactions: Tears, Joy, and Sermons
The scene left no one unmoved. Nancy commented happily:
"Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds, who guided him to Islam. O God, the Changer of Hearts, make my heart steadfast in Your religion while You are pleased with us."
While Umm Ahmed wrote with emotion:
"By God, one is amazed at God's mercy, forbearance, generosity, favor, and wisdom! Glory be to God, the Almighty, glory be to Him, and praise be to Him. Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds, for bestowing upon him the blessing of Islam. We ask God, the Almighty, Lord of the Mighty Throne, to grant us the blessing of steadfastness in it until we meet Him."
Lesson: You can be the reason for someone's guidance
Janu's story is a powerful reminder that guidance is in God's hands first and last, but it also demonstrates how kind treatment, kindness, and even a simple gift like a book can completely change a person's destiny.
How many people around us have a passion for the truth in their hearts, and all they need is to see Islam in us?
"And whoever saves a life, it is as if he had saved mankind entirely." (Al-Ma'idah: 32)
May God have mercy on Janu, make his grave a garden from the gardens of Paradise, and strengthen our hearts in faith, just as He strengthened his heart in his final moments.
