Dear Abdul,

I think you would do a great service to all, if you could devote sometime in educating people (especially) in the west about your experiences and views on Islam. Coming from you it would look more credible. I know that Dr Pipes has been branded an 'islamophobic' by majority of people. But personally, I think his views are more in line with the liberal left of the west which imagines good things about Islam.

I personally think that this ideology has made mental slaves out of a billion people. They need to be released from it, and people like you should contribute to this.
