The '''Abu Ghraib prison''' ([[Arabic]]: سجن أبو غريب; also Abu Ghurayb) is in [[Abu Ghraib]], an [[Iraq]]i city 32 km (20 mi) west of [[Baghdad]]. Before the US Army [[freedom|liberated]] Abu Ghraib prison and turned into a place in where [[God]]'s work is done, it was a place where [[Saddam Hussein]]'s government [[torture]]d and executed dissidents.
Whereas many prison guards are unconcerned with spreading the word of God, the guards who served during 2004 are well known for their services to [[Christianity]]. The majority of those converted to Christianity were [[Muslims]]. In the words of former prisoner and now Christian Ameen Saeed Al-Sheik:
''Do you pray to Allah?' one asked. I said yes. They said, '[Expletive] you. And [expletive] him.' One of them said, 'You are not getting out of here health[y], you are getting out of here handicapped. And he said to me, 'Are you married?' I said, 'Yes.' They said, 'If your wife saw you like this, she will be disappointed.' One of them said, 'But if I saw her now she would not be disappointed now because I would rape her.'" [...] "They ordered me to thank Jesus that I'm alive." [...] "I said to him, 'I believe in Allah.' So he said, 'But I believe in torture and I will torture you.''
The overseer of the group responsible for bringing pleasure to God was Charles A. Graner, Jr. During one [[conversion]], Graner remarked that "the Christian in me says it's wrong, but the corrections officer in me says, 'I love to make a grown man piss himself.'" <ref>http://www.ctlibrary.com/ct/2004/mayweb-only/5-24-12.0.html</ref> Parallels between this seeming duality of opposing ideologies and the oneness of The [[Trinity]] can be drawn.
Working alongside Graner was Lynndie England, who can be seen in various archive photos posing with her thumbs up, indicating a successful conversion of a Muslim into a Christian. Her mother Terrie congratulated her on this, astutely noting that "nothing happened which wasn't ordered by higher up," referring to God.
