An elderly Australian went to a mosque to complain about ‘loud noises’ during prayers. However, he converted back to Islam after conversing with the Muslims present in the mosque.
The heartwarming incident was captured on footage and showed the man declaring his new faith in English and Arabic before breaking down in tears.
Haj Hussain Goss, an active Muslim preacher in Australia, shared the clip on his Facebook account, writing: “Welcome to Islam our brother on this day of Eid. This brother came this morning for Eid to complain about the noise and went home as a Muslim. Allah is great.”
Hassan said at the beginning of the clip that an old man named Brian, who lived in a nursing home near the Gold Coast mosque, came to him complaining about the loud sound of Eid prayers that blasted over the speakers. Hassan then sat with Brian for 10 to 15 minutes, during which he talked to him.
Brian became convinced of the faith after an encounter with the preacher, making a voluntary decision to convert to Islam. (Agencies)
