The video features several Japanese individuals who converted to Islam, sharing their personal stories and reasons for embracing Islam.
They discuss how their experiences abroad, encounters with Muslim friends, and deepening understanding of Islamic teachings influenced their decisions. They also talk about the challenges of being Muslim in Japan, such as cultural misunderstandings, dietary restrictions, and the reaction of their families.
