Australia: Shermon Burgess, or the incredible conversion to Islam of an infamous right-wing extremist
It cannot be said enough: Allah guides whom He wills to Himself. He is the All-Knowing and the All-Wise.
Yes, God, in His infinite Mercy, can illuminate the path that leads to His Light for the most misguided and evil of men; for those who, like the Australian Shermon Burgess, have long wandered along the tortuous paths of right-wing extremism, even getting bogged down in them, their hearts filled with darkness.
After having made the pavement of Bush’s land tremble during a shattering decade, under the banner of ultra-nationalism, the man who was one of the most rabid anti-Islam spearheads of the United Patriots Front (UPF) group has given up his disastrous Islamophobic crusade. He is now moving towards another, brighter path.
A spectacular convert to Islam, Shermon Burgess, a staunch opponent of mosque building in a previous life, now worships there with devotion.
Although he is still preceded by his inglorious exploits within white supremacist groups that ended up burning in the fires of hatred, this infamous troublemaker is now redeeming his conduct. In particular, he is making amends to his brothers and sisters in God.
“ The Muslim community is very good, if you need help, they are always there to help you. In 2016-2015, you would never have imagined me standing next to a Muslim for the same cause. But things have changed. I stand with Muslims to confront the Zionist oppressors and the Freemasonry that rules us. Former UPF members attacked me, insulted me online, when they learned of my conversion. Many of them drank alcohol and suffered from moral degeneration. I liked the “health aspect” of Islam, the way Muslims work and avoid alcohol and drugs “, he confided on his Facebook page.
Completely transformed, Shermon Burgess, embodied by new and beautiful convictions, is a Muslim who now walks towards God with confidence. ” Islam gives meaning to your life. It shines the light into your soul and rekindles the passion for life in your heart. “, we can read under his inspired pen, which is no longer dipped in the black ink of his vile rancor.
