Following the priest’s conversion to Islam, approximately 1,000 Rwandans converted to Islam at his hands.
He is diligent in calling his people day and night, and Islam is spreading in Rwanda at an amazing speed.
According to the Development Message Foundation, “This former priest went with us on more than one missionary trip in Rwanda. He has an interesting way of explaining and advocating, and he makes beautiful movements to entice people to listen to him.”
It is stated that after he declared his conversion to Islam, he lost his job and his wife left him, but because he exclusively focused on the stability and expansion of Islam, Allah blessed him with incredible success.
Islam in Rwanda
Islam is spreading in Rwanda faster than any other country in the world. Since the beginning of European colonialism in Rwanda in 1884, Roman Catholicism has been the country’s major religion.
However, thousands of Rwandans who lost their faith in Christianity during the genocide have turned to Islam in the subsequent 30 years.
According to the 2006 census, Islam is Rwanda’s largest minority religion, with 4.6 percent of the population practicing it.
Sunni Muslims make up the majority of Rwanda’s Muslim population. Muslim traders from the East Coast of Africa were the first to introduce Islam to Rwanda in the 18th century.
