Man was not forced to embrace Islam, says head imam

On April 18, the Facebook page of Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque posted pictures and video of the conversion that took place on April 13.

PETALING JAYA: There is no truth to the viral social media post of an Indian man who was forced to convert to Islam, says the head imam of a mosque in Putrajaya.

Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque head imam Jamali Mohd Adnan said the man had in fact been deepening his knowledge of the Islamic faith for over 30 years.
