On the second day of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, a Mexican fan accepted Islam in a mosque in the Katara cultural village in Doha.

Videos of the Mexican fan making the Shahadah (testimony of faith), inspired by the preacher Hayyan Al-Yafei, have been shared widely online.

The preacher Al-Yafei posted on his Facebook page along with a video, “This man entered the mosque to learn about the culture of Muslims, then I explained to him about the pillars of faith, and that Islam is the religion of all the prophets. A partner for him, then this man wanted to be on the religion of the prophets and chose to embrace Islam, and I repeated to him, does anyone force you to do that? He confirmed that no one forced him.”

Al-Yafei continues, “he told us that he wanted to become a Muslim out of his desire, and praise be to God who opened his chest and enlightened his heart. We ask God for us and for him to be steadfast.”

The Mexican fan's conversion was warmly embraced by internet users, who expressed their delight and gave their congratulations.
