PESHAWAR: (DNA) – Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) Minister for Mines and Minerals Amjad Ali on Monday welcomed a Chinese national to the path of Islam.

The video which was released by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) media cell in the province shows Ali first reciting the kalima and the Chinese national following the suit.

“Congratulations, you are a Muslim. Your name is Abdullah,” the provincial minister then tells the Chinese national.

When asked, Ali stated that he was visiting Guangzhou in China when he met Abdullah at the tomb of Sa’ad bin Abi Waqas, one of the companions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

“He captured a few pictures with us and later we started talking,” Ali  said, adding that the pair began talking and he explained the religion to him.

“He [Chinese national] was impressed and immediately asked us to convert him to Islam,” the minister added.

Ali said Abdullah then travelled to Pakistan where he was taught the teachings of Islam.
