Correct Religion Shows on the Face

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Shaykh ‘Abd al-Hakim Murad Timothy John Winter said, “The believer’s greatest argument is his face.  True religion lights up the face; false religion fills it with insecurity, rage and suspicion.  This is perceptible not only to insiders, but to anyone who maintains some connection with unsullied primordial human nature in his heart.

The early conversions to Islam often took place among populations that had no access to the language of the Muslims who now lived among them; but they were no less profound in consequence.  Religion is ultimately a matter of personal transformation, and no amount of missionary work will persuade people - with the occasional exception of the disturbed and the desperate - unless our own transformation is complete enough to be able to transform others.”
