526 | The Attraction to Islam with Dr Jay, Episode 8
Reason #9 "The practices of Islam are relevant for today". Polygamy, prayer, and women clothing are the main practices. To answer that; polygamy only benefits the man, and creates a lot of problems, prayer is ritualistic and impersonal, and women 's identity is taken to pay for man's sin. Reason #10 "The superiority of Islam" : Convert claim that Islam is superior because : It is the final revelation, its growing fast, It prepares you for here and after, it talks about every sphere of life, the advances in the west can be traced back to Islam, and the Quran is very scientific.

525 | The Attraction of Islam with Dr Jay, Episode 7
In this episode Al Fadi and Dr Jay continue to discuss reasons #7 and 8 of why people convert to Islam. Reason #7 Is the testimony of other Muslims, that they are good people. This doesn't mean that their religion is true and that their prophet is a true prophet in fact he did not meet the criteria of what a true prophet from the Bible should be. Reason #8 Is Islam's rationality; because the trinity, the incarnation, baptism and other doctrines of Christianity doesn't make sense to the Muslims they think that Islam is more rational, but there is a rational explanation to all these objections, and there is equally objections to some of the Muslim traditions as well.

523 | The Attraction of Islam with Dr Jay, Episode 5
In this episode Al Fadi and Dr Jay continue the discussion of slavery and how Christianity delt with it. They mention the abolition movement from 1673 with Richard Baxter in the USA, William Wilberforce 1789 who headed the abolition movement in the U K. To contrast that with Muslim countries who abolished slavery between 1952-1981, Qatar 1952, Saudi Arabia in 1961 just two examples and they did it because of pressure from western countries. Islam had never had an abolition movement. Next they discuss reason #4 Islam's morality. Converts to Islam from Afro American background say that Afro American Christian churches have more problems with sexual immorality. That is true but that is not what the Bible teaches especially when we read Matthew 5. The more the western culture pulls away from the bible the more we pull away from morality.
