How to get OMA certificate in Manila?

Assalamualaykum! Today, I will be sharing how to get a "Certificate of Muslim Filipino Tribal Membership" and a "Certificate of Confirmation of Conversion to Islam," also known as an OMA Certificate.   When I converted to Islam, I didn't have any idea about the OMA certificate until I decided to go to Saudi Arabia; that's the only time I discovered that I needed it for visa stamping.   I've written this because not everyone knows where to go or how to get it. The good news is that the OMA certificate is completely free! and you can have it in just 30 minutes. Now, let me guide you step-by-step on how to get it. Note :  The policy and process might change, as I have written this 2017 Comment down below if you have experienced a new policy; it will be very helpful to others.   Let's make sure first that you have all the requirements that you need.   Requirements for born Muslims: -xerox copy of Aqeeqa -xerox copy of passport - 1...

3 Things you should do When Allah gives you a Trial.

photo by: Francesco Tommasini 3 Things to do When Allah Gives you a Trial.   Years ago, I had to warn someone who was oblivious about people with bad intentions. The culprits were the people I lov, who were important to me. Nevertheless, I still did what I had to do, the right thing.  What I did resulted in a catastrophe; it was unexpected and took me by surprise. I only wanted nothing but to save them from Allah’s anger. When they found out what I did, they hated me, they slandered me, and they cut me. It was devastating. I cried in my sujood. All I wanted was to please Allah and for the truth to prevail. But somehow, after my concerted effort, the person didn’t believe me and got victimized. Indeed, after this event, I learned to accept that there are things we can’t control. We must be patient and surrender to Allah’s plan. That’s my story and I’m sure it’s different from yours.
