That’s why we must pray, and continue to pray, for him and for others like him. But —— do we believe in God?
Are you asking if we believe in God’s ability to change lives, hearts and minds? Of course we do. I’ve seen it happen. I’ve noticed it usually doesn’t. People tend to be who they are, and rarely make a complete 180.
I don’t find any indication that Gulwali Passarlay has abandoned his worship of allah, and I doubt that he will. I think he probably still embraces most of what he learned growing up. His traumatic experience must certainly have had an effect on some of his views, but unless and until he gives up his worship of allah, and embraces God, he will remain, fundamentally, who he has always been. I think he has adapted to his environment. Nothing more.
