The Cost

The subtitle reads My Life on a Terrorist Hit List.

This book describes the true story of Ali Husnain (not his real name for security reasons). Ali is born into a prominent Shia Muslim family in Pakistan and has a dramatic encounter with Jesus. After his encounter with Jesus, he becomes a target of a terrorist organization because of his conversion to Christianity. He narrowly escapes death after being stabbed by a terrorist attacker. This stabbing mere inches from his heart was not fatal because Jesus told him in the hospital room “I will not let you die.”

Ali was exiled from his home and family, nearly kill for his faith in Jesus, miraculously healed from a savage knife attack, and he was chased cross continents fleeing for his life. Yet Ali’s faith in Jesus compelled him to bring the gospel to the Muslim world no matter the cost.

This is a must-read story.
