I was born in a Sunni Muslim home in Bangladesh, where I learned the meaning of stern discipline from my father, a major general in the military with responsibilities in the intelligence service. We lived on different army bases in elaborate quarters reserved for officers and their families. Servants catered to our every need. The business and political elite of Bangladesh and Pakistan frequented social events in our home.
I grew up attending an Islamic madrasa (religious school), where we studied the Qur’an and learned classical Arabic from an imam. My father could trace his lineage back to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan (the name derives from Hashem, grandson of the prophet Muhammad’s great-grandfather). His heritage qualified me as a direct descendant of Islam’s founder.

COMMENTARY
CBN.com - In 1971, I was a 16-year-old smart aleck atheist and I took great pleasure in talking young Christians out of their faith. Why live by faith? By its very nature, you can t know what you believe is true. The only problem with my philosophy is that it was driving me into a deep depression. I would say if there is no creator and judge, and we are a product of evolution, why do good? Why be good? Why even be?
That summer I was having a hard time figuring out why I should do anything or talk to anyone. My poor mother was panicking for me as I was slipping into a deeper and deeper funk. I was spending more time alone in my room and I was saying hardly anything to anyone.
