Dil R. Banu

The author, Dil R. Banu, a Muslim by birth and practice and a retired lecturer from a prestigious school and college in her homeland Bangladesh, settled in America as an immigrant about three decades ago. She worked as a substitute teacher for a year or so, and then began to operate a licensed family day-care in her rented apartment where all her neighbours were Christians. This job was a turning point in her life because it made her a writer from a day-care provider.

During this period, she met with many Christian missionaries with whom she had transformative interactions. Their discussions were fascinating exchanges that centred around God, The Bible, and The Quran. Owing to her openness, and a warm personality, she has forged lasting bonds with many Christians and continues enlightening exchanges with them.

She wrote this book from her previously published book “Anna Asked was Muhammad a Prophet? putting special emphasis on Jesus’ prophecies about his Comforter whom he meant to come after him as his testifier.

Her favorite subject is Comparative Religion. She thinks our faith in God should be prudent and reflective instead of being blind or self-made. As our worldly life is short and uncertain, and there is no chance to correct our mistake once we cross the one-way exit of death, she believes the sooner we identify the true path of God and try to pursue it, the better for us.

She enjoys reading, travelling, praying, and passing time with her grandchildren.
