Watch how this guy, who once hated Muslims and Islam and wanted to Bomb and Kill Muslims, became a Muslim

After so much hatred, Richard McKinney came in front of the Islamic Center, but not to bomb it, but to ask Muslims a few questions before he could take a stand against them. The management of Islamic Center gave him the English Translation of the Holy Quran, and ask him to come back after he finishes reading it.

After reading Quran, he started coming to the mosque to seek answers to his questions, he further said that he never feel unloved, or people in the mosque never ill-treated me despite I had so much hatred for them. He said Muslims were very friendly people he had ever met. He started spending hours in the mosque and after 8 weeks he decided to accept Islam.
