Argentinean merchant converts to Islam at Imam Redha Holy Shrine
An Argentinean merchant has converted to Islam through expressing his words of testimony at Imam Redha Holy Shrine.
Fabian Garcia who had chosen Redha as his new Muslim name, said, “I have been busy with my business in Iran for about three years; I became familiar with the religion of Islam during these years”.
He added, “I decided to change my religion following my personal research on Islam”.
The newly converted Muslim went on to say, “I came to Mashhad for the first time with the help of one of my friends who is in charge of an Islamic center in Argentina; I was deeply affected when I saw the golden dome and sacred premises of the holy shrine for the first time. Imam Reza Holy Shrine brought an indescribable calmness to my heart and made my decision for conversion much more serious”.
The Argentinean businessman further noted that every human being has got an inner desire to achieve happiness, and “I found out that I could fulfill this desire by converting to Islam”.
Stating that conversion to Islam has divided his lifetime into two different periods of before and after traveling to Mashhad, Redha said, “I thank God for providing me with this success of being present at Imam Redha Holy Shrine. I enjoy security and calm”.
He stressed, “The Holy Quran has been my guide in life and I believe that all my problems and difficulties will be solved by resorting to this divine book and by trusting in God”.
