One of my contemporary heroes of the faith is Nabeel Qureshi. Nabeel came to faith at the great price of risking loosing his family. But the call of God was heavy upon him and he followed the truth and met Jesus.
Nabeel was diagnosed with stage IV stomach cancer last year. Through his YouTube Channel he has documented his journey from diagnosis to the edge of eternity. On Saturday, September 16th, 2017, Nabeel entered into the next stage of his eternal walk with Jesus. Here is the last video released days before his physical death:
Here are a few articles on Nabeel that cover his life and ministry:
Ravi Zacharias writes in the Washington Post about Nabeel
Frank Turek write about why God did not heal Nabeel
CBN had a really nice article on him.
Plus there are many, many more out there.
If you are interested, I encourage you to get one or more of his books. Nabeel not only leaves a wife and young daughter behind, but they live in Houston and were affected by Hurricane Harvey and the respective floods. Buying his books will help assist his family financially in this very stressful time.

Answering Jihad: A Better Way Forward
By Nabeel Qureshi / Zondervan From New York Times bestselling author and former Muslim Nabeel Qureshi comes this personal, challenging, and respectful answer to the many questions surrounding jihad, the rise of ISIS, and Islamic terrorism. San Bernardino was the most lethal terror attack on American soil since 9/11, and it came on the heels of a coordinated assault on Paris. There is no question that innocents were slaughtered in the name of Allah and in the way of Jihad, but do the terrorists’ actions actually reflect the religion of Islam? The answer to this question is more pressing than ever, as waves of Muslim refugees arrive in the West seeking shelter from the violent ideology of ISIS. Setting aside speculations and competing voices, what really is Jihad? How are we to understand Jihad in relation to our Muslim neighbors and friends? Why is there such a surge of Islamist terrorism in the world today, and how are we to respond? In Answering Jihad, Nabeel Qureshi (author of the New York Times bestseller Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus) answers these questions from the perspective of a former Muslim who is deeply concerned for both his Muslim family and his American homeland. |
