On December 13 we arrived in Istanbul to give a\nsurprise to our daughters who study there in one of the best international schools\nin Turkey, thanks to the Diyanet Foundation and the Seville Mosque Foundation\n.<\/p>\n\n

Sevinj, Amal and I were very excited because we hadn’t seen our girls for two\nand a half months. The teachers were\nwaiting for our arrival, keeping the secret from us until the end. <\/p>\n\n

After the long-awaited reunion, we were taken to our\nroom, where it didn’t take long for all of our daughters’\nclassmates to arrive one after another to welcome us.<\/p>\n\n

In our previous meeting the teachers showed great\ninterest in the story of how we had converted to Islam, but as there was\nno time, we agreed to tell them about it on the next visit. So on this occasion\nthey organized an event in the conference hall. <\/p>\n\n

They gave us time for sightseeing and shopping with\nour daughters. On the last day, Sunday the 15th, we gave the lecture to 150\ngirls from 70 countries and 5 of the teachers who were able to attend. <\/p>\n\n

Amal and I told them about our experiences of how and why\nwe converted to Islam, while Sevinj translated us into Turkish. It was very\nemotional. At the end we were all crying and hugging each other, girls, teachers\nand mothers. Afterwards we had time to share tea and talk with the students\nwho came to ask us about our talk and with their teachers. <\/p>\n\n

It has been an enriching journey\nin many ways, as we were able to see the great human quality of\nall the people who surround our daughters, with whom they are fully\nintegrated.<\/p>\n\n

I can\nonly thank you for the kindness and affection received. \nWe would also like to thank our daughters for the care and respect.<\/p>\n\n

Thank you very much Sumeya, Meltem, Marwanoor, Nassybeh, Naviyeh\nand the entire teaching team.<\/p>\n\n

May Allah bless you. Account of the visit of Yauhara, Sevinj and Amal of Seville, written by Yauhara Vigo. <\/p>\n\n
