“I am a police consultant, and I have tried to guide many youths to the right path in my life. God in this way, bestowed me the valuable gift of guidance” he said.
“The Shi’ism is a factor to change the human, and this way they will have progress from inside” Lief Jonah Apelgern stated.
“In addition to watching movies, I have read a lot of history books, and also the Qur'an with pondering, and the inner feelings and peace of heart toward this religion, was the ground to get to the Shi’ism” he expressed, pointing out the studies on the subject.
“This verse that “if someone hurt you, treat them cheerfully and put all your efforts to guide him” is one of the most beautiful verses I read in Qur'an, and I exert it in my manner and ethics” he said at the end, pointing to one of the verses of Quran.
