Alhamdolilah, May Allah guide other communities to Islam and may we become suitable representatives and models for others to follow. Inshallah we who are already Muslim can also learn some things from the humbleness and goodness of those who embrace Islam and display their warmth, lack of prejudice and receptiveness to others.

It is not just about showing happiness when someone else becomes Muslim, but also in expressing and practising goodness, developing good qualities and maintaining a pleasing relationship with Allah.
