Dear Brothers and Sisters: This is good news for Muslims. This is also 'good news' for the enemies of Islam.
As for Muslims, they win an energetic brother who has exposed the falsehood of the enemies of Islam and defended Islam in various ways before I and many others ever started responding to attacks on Islam in the West. Also, non-Muslims who seek the truth and are not hostile to Islam, will learn the true Islamic ideals through the efforts of a hardworking brother who has made substantial efforts in defending Islam against the slander and defamation of the enemies of Islam.
As for the enemies of Islam, this is 'good news' too. They had hoped that the differences we had among us would continue; but their plot has failed. Now we have an important asset to add to our collective efforts to defend Islam and expose falsehood. This is 'good news' for Sam Shamoun, jochen Katz, and all other enemies of Islam, who live in and for the defamation of Islam, who corrupt its texts to satisfy the outrage they feel in their diseased hearts against the blessed progress of Islam that started since Allah sent Muhammad, salla-llahu alaihi wa-sallam, to be the Last and Final Prophet and Messenger.
I am pleased to post this email from my brother Osama Abdallah Solieman and my response to it. He too will Inshaallah post this on his website. I ask Allah to forgive our brother, myself and all other Muslims whatever errors we committed, and to bless us all with the knowledge, implementation, fair preaching and defending of Islam, the best religion there is. May Allah's Salah and Salam be on His Prophet and his household, and may His Pleasure fill Muhammad's companions and all those who follow their righteous lead.

"As'salamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatu Allah Wa Barakatuh my dear brother Jalal, My name is Osama Abdallah Solieman. My father's name is Abdallah and I used it as my name on my web site. Thank you akhi for the prompt reply and please forgive me for all of the abuse that I've given you. The more I mature, the more I realize how ridiculous and foolish I was. I also would like you to know that I am having a real and serious change of heart towards my Salafy brothers and sisters in Islam. All I've seen from you (plural) is patience, professionalism, knowledge, Truth and powerful and convincing Faith. Really brother Jalal, I've been going over myself for the past 6 months, and I can't with a clear concious say that Salafies are misguided. On the contrary, they are the Truth. The Sunnah are the Truth, and it's an honor for me to be a Salafy akhi Jalal. May Allah Almighty greatly bless you akhi Jalal. Your great heart and great kindness have defeated my evilness and stuborness. I will further modify the site and modify all of my views on the site akhi. I have come to fully trust in our Great Scholars who have done the monumental work in preserving the Holy and Great Sunnah of our Beloved, Blessed Prophet, Muhammad, peace be upon him, akhi. You can actually see the beginning of this change of heart with my debate with David Wood on "Is Muhammad (Sallah Allahu 3alyhi Wa Sallam) a True Prophet?" where I quoted some of our Great Salafie Scholars such as Sheikh Al-3areefi and others. Please forgive me akhi Jalal for being very ugly and mean to you. You did not deserve it. You did not deserve it one bit at all! I will post this apology for you on the site for all to see in a day, insha'Allah dear akhi. Take care. Your brother in Islam, Osama Abdallah."Jalal Abualrub wrote:
"As-salamu alaikum warahmatullah: Akhee Osama Abdallah Solieman:You have brought tears to my eyes and gave me the best news in some time. All what I wanted through our dialogue, which turned harsh on both sides, is the good for you with Allah and to avoid Allah's anger. I was hoping that you would use your various talents fully in support of Muhammad, salla-llahu alaihi wa-sallam, and his Sunnah and more in exposing the falsehood that opposes Muhammad, salla-llahu alaihi wa-sallam. Indeed, the scholars of Islam have performed the most magnificent job any human who is not a prophet ever performed: they preserved both the Quran and Sunnah for all of mankind. May Allah bless our Salaf and give mercy to them and to all those who love and respect them and follow their righteous lead. Akhee Osama, do not worry about whatever harsh things you said about me, your email erased all of that completely. I am just glad that you have realized where the true guidance is, that's what counts, by Allah. May Allah forgive you all what you said that was not in His full Pleasure and increase your good deeds and multiply them. And the same Du`aa for me and for all other Muslims. Please do post this response in your website. This will be 'good' news to Sam Shamoun, Jochen Katz and all other enemies of Islam. Let us cooperate in Allah's Sake to defeat their evil plots against Islam. I will Inshaallah post your email and my response to it on my website, with your permission. Welcome back akhee, welcome back. As-salamu alaikum warahmatullah Jalal Abualrub."
