My child, you should repent at once and in future do not give ear to
the talk of Muslims. They are irreligious and castigate the true
religion of others. Do you know, my child, what is their religion?
Bloodshed is creditable in their religion. Just see, they invaded our
country Spain and killed hundreds of innocent people and are forcibly
imposing their religion. Now, I know that these objections you have
heard from Muslims. If they were from your own mind I would have
cleared them, but what reply can we giveto them?
Isabella was sorry to have mentioned Muslims; otherwise her problems
must have been solved. Now I will ask this question, she thought, from
my teacher whom I ask questions which I do not understand in the
course of my studies.
Next day Isabella put the same question to her teacher who also failed
to satisfy her by some convincible answer. Up to this time Isabella
had thought that her difficulty was due to her lack of understanding
and the religious leader will solve iteasily, but now she realised
that it was not an easy but an important matter and her doubts were
strengthened and continued to grow.
