Subhanallah indigenous people in Chiapas ( southern Mexico) people are converting to Islam. This region of Mexico (Chiapas) has become famous for its non-muslim rebelion group EZLN that struggles for rights. The rebelion group, by the way, has nothing to do with Islam.

Compared to other countries in Latin America with sizable Muslims communities, Mexico's Muslim population is tiny.

In southern Mexico, the indigenous Mayan population is a minority.

But another minority is being created within that group, as more and more Mayans convert from Catholicism.

In Chiapas, Frank Contreras takes a look at how Islam is gaining a foothold in the region.

We should not be surprised, our beloved prophet sallalahu alayhi wassalam did say that Islam will enter every house in the world (paraphrasing).

wassalam.

Surah - Al Nasr THE HELP

When comes the Help of God, and Victory,

And thou dost see the people enter God's Religion in crowds,

Celebrate the praises of thy Lord, and pray for His Forgiveness: For He is Oft-Returning (in Grace and Mercy).
 
Salaam,

Subhanallah - At a time when Muslim are dying in one part of the world, Allah Almighty perfects His Light in the most unexpected places. Muslims come and go, new breeds of Muslims replace the old because they earned and deserved the Truth.

Jazkallah khair for sharing.
