Command of the South Korean troops informed of a growing number of troops who adopted Islam

37 South Korean soldiers became Muslim recently. A total of 51 soldiers attend mosques regularly. According to the commander, all of the soldiers were atheists before coming to Iraq, reports ITAR-TASS.

Their road to Islam “began relatively long time ago after reading the Koran; the reading helped them to grasp the essence of the religion.” Those who return back to their hometown in South Korea express their wish “to return to Iraq”; also they would like “locals to understand that they came with purely humanitarian mission and will abide by the laws of the religion.”

Woaa Congrulations..! That terrible difficult to be a muslim for an atheist. But i can't believe that a person doesn't believe completely..

There must be something in their heart..

There in no atheist in the World… I don't believe them.. They believe!May not completely a God..But again they believe something in their heart..

 

So there is no atheist in the World, to me!

 

Anway..Allah bless them. It is not too late so believe.Inshallah everyone admits my religion, ISLAM

 

One day, every wise ppl will be a Muslim :)

I think the story illustrates the tolerance among Koreans different religions (or no religion – almost half of South Koreans profess NO religious affiliation)

 

Quite the difference from someplace like, say, Saudi Arabia where it would be illegal to practice something other than the state religion.

Can I Cry, you know of course, that I disagree with your thoughts about atheists, but I can understand your inability to imagine that we don't all believe in "something".

 

And you seem to imply that non-muslims cannot be wise.

Oh I c…So numbers imply everything? Is that so? Then look at statistics…34% of world population is Christian which is the highest for any religion. Here in India 87% of population is Hindu… Everyday there must be more than 1000 conversions in our state only (Remember here a violent communal riot going on on the issue of Hindus converting to Christianity…620 Churches have been razed to ground and 30+ killed, We know better than any of u what is CONVERSION). So does that imply Christianity is the best or Hinduism is the best?
