Based on his previous interest and after visiting holy city of Mashhad, a Chinese reporter was deeply impacted by the spirituality and divine attraction of the Imam Redha Holy Shrine and has reverted to Islam.

In the ceremony held by the management of non-Iranian pilgrims’ affairs of the holy shrine, Wang Yun recited the Shahadatein (the two testimonies). Following his reversion, he chose Ali as his name.

This new Chinese Muslim stressed, “Based on these findings, I recognized Islam as a religion containing numerous unique features among which fraternity; equality, justice, and truth can be referred to.”

At the end of this ceremony, shrine’s officials offered some cultural gifts including introductory books on Islam, principles of beliefs, and a prayer mat to this new Muslim convert.
