Naren,
Muttalrige estu helidru artha agalla, avarige avaradde raga,
We have thousands of Indian nurses working in Saudi Arabia mostly from Kerala and mostly non-muslims, But, only a very little percentage have changed their faith,
What you are mentioning here is all false, bogus and baseless,

Syed,
When the people who associate partners with ALLAH revert and Worship ALLAH alone... They are already be forgiven for their Past Sin. ALLAH is most forgiving and most merciful....
May Allah forgive us and make us one of the inheriters of the Jannah.

Islam is the only religion accept by the almighty ALLAH (God) . Please make a research Y God accept only ISLAM. There is a life after death... We Muslims know that and U never understand this cos the Guidance comes only when U learn about the CREATOR who created U, ME and all that EXists...

Read QURAN with translation... U can also check online , i prefer Quranproject which is well explained to those who dont know about ISLAM and the one GOD who is the God of all that exists.

Finally Read it and U also have the choice to accept it or Not ... There is no compulsion in Religion... (What a better way Allah gives u the choice to accept it or not)

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Congress is confused on the Ram Mandir issue and in dilemma to take a firm stand fearing loss of Muslim or Hindu votes, according to BJP leader and Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi.

"Congress opposed BJP's stand on constructing Ram Mandir in Ayodya, it called Lord Ram fictional and even decided to break the Ramsetu. Now, Congressmen are speaking the other way. Congress cannot think beyond vote bank politics which is in its DNA itself. Congressmen think that they are born to be in power," he said while speaking to media persons. 

He said that BJP is all for constructing a grand Ram Mandir peacefully and legally, due to its conviction and not for politics. Same was the case with the revocation of Article 370 for Jammu & Kashmir. Anti-national activities have comparatively come down now. 

Some people do not want everything going smoothly in the country, and Congress and Asaduddin Owaisi are among them, Joshi opined, adding that the Congress is merely frustrated.
