Muslim To Atheist To Muslim (Non Scientific Miracles of the Quran)!!!

He travelled the road from Muslim to Atheist to Muslim as well and speaks of his experience on "The Deen Show"... I'll post a link about it in another post soon... But this is one of the best I have ever heard Arabic speaking or not this is something worth you...
