Samaa habib biography definition and images

I had been to the most beautiful place imaginable with Jesus, and I wanted everyone on earth to experience it too. After a young Muslim woman named Samaa Habib came to Christ, she endured intense persecution from her family and the surrounding community, but even greater torment lay ahead when her thriving fellowship of Muslim converts to Christianity was bombed.

The four young men with "grim" expressions who visited one Sunday morning looked like many of the young men who fought in her country's recent civil war. No matter their background, the young men were welcomed with love by the congregation. Jesus loves you," said one of the greeters of the church, as recounted in Samaa Habib's riveting book Face to Face with Jesus Baker Publishing.

But these young men were on a malevolent mission, as they carefully studied how and when the followers of Jesus entered and departed the building, so the four bombs they were constructing could do the most damage. The bombs were set to explode during the Sunday morning service, 15 minutes apart, in order to kill as many innocent and unsuspecting people as possible.

On that fateful Sunday morning, miraculously, two of the four bombs did not go off.

But the two that did explode wreaked horrible damage. Samaa was closest to one of the bombs that detonated. She was thrown 10 feet and her body slammed against an opposite wall. Her hair burned off, along with much of her flesh. Blood poured from open wounds on her head and body. Her good friend Wafa, standing nearby Samaa, was decapitated instantly.

When they found him, he was still clutching his Bible to his chest.
