For former national junior squad under-21 footballer Firdaus Wong Wai Hung, coming to Islam seemed easy enough.

He 'reverted' to the religion on August 10, 2005 at 22 years of age when laying-off from playing football due to an injury. It was a time of contemplation for him.

But his study and dedication to the religion happened only six years later when he attended a talk by Ustaz Hussein Yee who runs a centre in Shah Alam called Pertubuhan Al-Khadeem.

A large part of Wong's work is an organization called Multiracial Muslim Malaysia, formerly called Malaysia Reverted Muslims housed in a building in the Kuala Lumpur suburb of Wangsa Maju.

It is through this organization that he does his missionary work such as organizing classes and lectures for reverts and whoever else interested to learn more about Islam.

His members also participate in street dakwah together with other Muslim groups. It's through this programme that allows them to speak to people who might be curious about Islam.

In this conversation with Firdaus, we asked if the recent behaviour and racial polemic of Muslim NGOs, are making efforts to spread knowledge about Islam to non-Muslims, that much more difficult.

Note: Muslims use the word 'Revert' rather than 'Convert' to Islam because of the belief that everyone was born Muslim.
