Entry 42, Evening
Medina, Saudi Arabia
The Messenger Muhammad came to this city seeking refuge from persecution; and so I have come for the same reason. My family in Baghdad have cast me out, but I have remained strong. I forgive them as Allah forgives them for their ignorance. That I have been given this gift from Him means many sacrifices. It also means I have much to repay.
I have taken many days to research this man that I have seen on American news channels and in their publications. A very nice American woman named Aasimah showed me the internet from the library in Masjid Munawwarah. It is a little different than the internet the American soldiers showed me; in Medina they have blocked many unclean sites. It is comforting knowing I can move around the internet files safely now.
I found some articles on John Allerdyce, but no way to contact him. I am not really surprised. Tomorrow after evening prayer I hope to speak to the caliph and see if he can get me in touch with those who might know of mutant groups in America. I am certain someone will know where to find this man and his Brotherhood.
I fear that this Brotherhood has more to gain from itself than from Almighty Allah. And if they are willing to accept me, do I consider it a pilgrimage through pagan lands? Should I shun their ways or find a way to live peacefully. My father would have told me, be a pillar of Islam to these people. Open their ears and eyes and mouths to Allah. Perhaps I will do so. If they will have me.
Ash Hadu anna Muhamadar rasuulullah.
