Riyadh, (IINA) - Around 600 Chinese workers have reverted to Islam, after being introduced to the tenets of this religion by Islamic scholars in the Muslims’ holy city of Makkah, Saudi Arabia, OnIslam reported citing Saudi Sabq Online news.

The paper sources revealed that scholars prepared a daily plan at night, when they offered 12 hours of intensive courses on Islam. The program was attended by Chinese Muslims, who recently embraced Islam, to support the scholars’ efforts.

Before the launch of this program, the initial idea included inviting engineers and team leaders to join Islam through special visits and meetings over months.

This news followed earlier reports last January when around 500 Chinese Muslims reverted to Islam after being touched by the “simplicity” of the funeral of the late King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz.
