It was time for the self-examination of Adi‟s own Christian belief and for the first time it
occurred to him that his belief in the Trinity was parallel to that of idolatry. He reflected
upon his knowledge of previous prophets and recognized the pattern that all, without
exception, had preached the Oneness of the Creator.
He realized that over the passage of time the religion he thought he was following had
become corrupt but more importantly the Book given to Jesus no longer existed and only
fragments of his teachings remained. It also dawned upon him that Christianity was
reprehensible because, unlike the pagan idolaters, it had in earlier times received Divine
Guidance entrusted to Jesus, whereas the pagans had not.
He reflected upon the creation of Adam and Eve and the fact that neither had parents,
yet no one had ever attributed to them an association or kinship with Allah. There was
no doubt in his mind that it would have been absolutely impossible for such a pure
person as Jesus to claim that he was anything else except a prophet, born of a virgin
mother. It was then that Adi rejected the notion of the deity of Jesus and recognized the
fact that Jesus, like Adam and Eve, were all miracles from Allah, the One and only
Creator.
