Shaykh Ahmed Maeno’s story is one of courage, sacrifice and unwavering faith. Growing up in Japan with a love for manga and a deep spiritual curiosity, he explored Buddhism and other faiths before a life-changing encounter with Muslims in Melbourne—and the powerful words of Malcolm X—opened his heart to Islam.
In this intimate conversation with OnePath Network, Shaykh Ahmed reveals how he faced family rejection, discovered the Qur’an beyond media stereotypes, and found the strength to pursue Islamic scholarship from Japan to Damascus. A moving journey of sincerity and hope for anyone seeking truth.
