Mahafuza (48), a Believer from a Muslim Background (BMB), who has been persecuted since she decided to follow our Lord Jesus Christ, was attacked on the evening of the 24th of April 2023, around 8pm local time.<\/p>\n
She was returning home from another believer\u2019s home after their regular evening prayer when she was startled by three Muslim men who stopped her and began publicly mocking her, using hurtful and insulting words. Among them was Rana Miah, a man who previously persecuted her mentally and verbally.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou convert Muslims to Christianity! You have spoilt our society!\u201d <\/em>said Rana Miah. \u201cToday, you\u2019re not running from this! I got <\/em>you, and I won\u2019t let you go anymore!\u201d<\/em> In saying that, Rana grabbed a large piece of wood and began beating Mahafuza.<\/p>\n The beatings got harder with every hit. Then, he struck her head, and immediately she lost her balance and fell to the ground.<\/p>\n \u201cI love sharing the Gospel, and so I do it!\u201d<\/em> Mahafuza said. \u201cI have the constitutional right to share the Gospel and practice my faith,\u201d<\/em> she continued with one palm on her head to ease the pain. \u201cYou\u2019ve persecuted and insulted me many times, but I never say anything to you. What you\u2019re doing is bad. Please just let me go.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n But they wouldn\u2019t let her go. Thankfully, Mahafuza managed to inform a friend who lived nearby. Her friend called the police and rushed to the scene to rescue her from the hands of her perpetrators and immediately sent her to the local hospital. The perpetrators were then arrested.<\/p>\n Mahafuza went through a series of X-rays and tests. Local partners are in contact with Mahafuza, and they\u2019re praying for her rapid recovery. They also paid for the medical tests and treatment.<\/p>\n Though she\u2019s in pain, Mahafuza feels no remorse for sharing the Gospel and her love for Jesus with the people around her. She will continue to share the Gospel when she is fully recovered.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Prayer Points<\/strong><\/p>\n
