From another thread. Atta's last words:

"Everybody hates death, fears death," "But only those, the believers who know the life after death and the reward after death, would be the ones who will be seeking death."

"Remind yourself that in this night you will face many challenges. But you have to face them and understand it 100 percent. . . . Obey God, his messenger, and don't fight among yourself where you become weak, and stand fast, God will stand with those who stood fast."

"You should pray, you should fast. You should ask God for guidance, you should ask God for help. . . . Continue to pray throughout this night. Continue to recite the Koran."

It continues: "Purify your heart and clean it from all earthly matters. The time of fun and waste has gone. The time of judgment has arrived. Hence we need to utilize those few hours to ask God for forgiveness. You have to be convinced that those few hours that are left you in your life are very few. From there you will begin to live the happy life, the infinite paradise. Be optimistic. The prophet was always optimistic."

"Keep a very open mind, keep a very open heart of what you are to face," the document says. "You will be entering paradise. You will be entering the happiest life, everlasting life."

"I pray to you God to forgive me from all my sins, to allow me to glorify you in every possible way."

"Oh, God, open all doors for me. Oh God who answers prayers and answers those who ask you, I am asking you for your help. I am asking you for forgiveness. I am asking you to lighten my way. I am asking you to lift the burden I feel."

"Oh God, you who open all doors, please open all doors for me, open all venues for me, open all avenues for me."

The document continues: "God, I trust in you. God, I lay myself in your hands."

It closes, "There is no God but God, I being a sinner. We are of God, and to God we return."

There is only one name under heaven by which we must be saved. It ain't Allah.

We would love to think that perhaps in the last split second before impact, time froze and Jesus appeared in the doomed plane and invited everyone who wished to believe in Him at that very moment. A kind of Paulesque "Mohammed, Mohammed, why are you rejecting Me" moment. This however would be pressing the words of the Bible practically to the breaking point.
