When Yasmina and her husband first became followers of Christ, they stopped praying in the Islamic manner. Their Muslim family pressured the young couple to recant, even taking legal measures to try to annul their marriage. After several days of severe pressure, Yasmina&rsquo;s husband yielded and reverted to Islam, but Yasmina remained firm. The family then called three mullahs to the couple&rsquo;s home to convince Yasmina to change her stance. One of the mullahs insulted Jesus and suddenly became ill. He foamed at the mouth, had a seizure and was rushed to a hospital. As the family continues to pressure Yasmina, local church leaders request prayer for her safety and that she will persevere in her faith.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.icommittopray.com\/request\/2804\/yasmina\/\" target=\"_blank\">Post a prayer for Yasmina on iCommitToPray.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yasmina, a former Muslim, faces pressure from her family after placing her faith in Christ.
