Welcome our new Greek Converts Manager
January 20, 2009 by ImanK
Please give a warm welcome to our new Greek Converts Manager, Mariam Eustathiou.
Mariam is from Cyprus and is now living in Switzerland. She is the founder of the Facebook group, Greek Muslims, and is a new member of our admin team to help provide support for the Global Greek Muslim community.
She is heading up our crucial project to collect as many Greek convert stories as we can, either in text or video format. As you know, many Greeks don’t want to accept the fact that we are Greek, raised just like them, and consciously choose Islam. So, if we don’t have your story submitted already, I highly encourage you to get in contact with Mariam at greekconverts@greeksrethink.com.
Please give a warm welcome to Mariam.
Salam alykom w rahmatullah w baraqatu!
Thankyou for the welcome! Inshallah hope I can do a good job, and for all those who actually doubt that there are greek muslims…you will all be pleasantly shocked very soon!
The facebook group now has 36 members, and ten more are asking to join already. Besides all those that I know personally who havent even got onto the internet system yet. 100 would be more like what we are looking at. From the people that I know that is.
Ta leme syntoma!
Fi aman allah

Hi there,
I am Petros – Hassid. I would like to join your group. I am a Greek convert, proud to be Muslim. I was brought up as Orthodox but for the last 2 years i am a practicing Muslim. I am slowly overcoming the difficulties and most of my friends now are aware of my new religion. I still have not got the courage to tell my parents though. I may ask for some help.
Salam alykom
Wa aleykum salam wa rahmatullah ya akhi Hassid or Petros.
You are welcomed with open arms into our group. You can register to the forum, and tell us some about yourself. Insha Allah, you will find the strength to overcome all difficulties of life. May Allah ta’ala bless you.

Αλσαλαμ Αλεκομ αδελφε Πετρο.Ο ΑΛΛΑΧ ειναι μαζι σου να σου καθοδηγηση στο ορθο δρομο του.οτι βοηθεια στο ισλαμ ειμαι εδω.
Salam alaykum Brother Petros-Hassid.
If your friends are aware only because you changed
your religion they are not really friends as they should understand
and respect your choise as you do not harm anyone.
As for your parents there is no problem by now,you can have your faith for your self but in the future it will be good for you if you stay with them to learn the truth,so it is good to learn as much as you can for Islam to pursue them that Islam is not evil,you are no Turk e.t.c. about the myths for our religion that most Greek believe.How old are you by the way?
