00:01:48.580Walid Abdullah reveals surprising insight on Cristiano Ronaldo's potential conversion to Islam.
00:01:53.780In the heart of Saudi Arabia, where football and faith intertwined, whispers have begun to circulate about Cristiano Ronaldo's spiritual journey.
00:02:04.040Marrakech, Walid Abdullah, the former goalkeeper of Al-Nasar, has made some striking statements regarding superstars Cristiano Ronaldo, the team's captain, and the possibility of his conversion to Islam.
00:02:17.440Speaking as a guest on the program, Al-Hissa Al-Akhira, Abdullah confirmed long-standing rumors about Ronaldo's openness to converting, citing his clear integration and adaptation to the Saudi Arabian culture.
00:02:31.780Ronaldo genuinely wants to convert to Islam.
00:02:36.700I spoke to him about it, and he expressed interest.
00:02:39.580He has already prostrated in the field after scoring, and has always encouraged the players to pray and follow Islamic religious practices, said the former Saudi international.
00:02:50.280Abdullah went on to explain that Ronaldo has taken a deep interest in local culture, especially Islam and its practices, in order to better respect and understand his Muslim teammates.
00:03:01.040Demonstrating a great deal of kindness towards the Portuguese star, towards them.
00:03:07.800The Portuguese star has ensured that his teammates have time to pray between training and training sessions.
00:03:13.960Abdullah shared more insights into Cristiano Ronaldo's growing interest in Islam, revealing how the superstar has shown respect for Islamic practices since his arrival in Saudi Arabia.
00:03:24.440And we all know that he's always had that before, from the get-go.
00:03:28.000Okay, when the call to prayer sounds during training, Ronaldo asks the coach to pause the session until it finishes.
00:03:34.280Look at the respect he has, subhanAllah.
00:03:36.620In the beginning, I was close to Cristiano because he wasn't familiar with the country's culture, the club, or other aspects.
00:03:42.020He was curious and often asked me questions about certain details.
00:03:45.120According to Abdullah, Ronaldo has always been interested in converting to Islam before his move to Al-Nasr in the winter of 2023.
00:03:53.380Reports suggested that his former Real Madrid teammate Masud Ozil, which is a Turkish Muslim individual, and Kareem Benzema, I think he's Moroccan, had tried to convince him to becoming a Muslim.
00:04:04.560The former Al-Nasr goalkeeper pointed out a particularly telling moment when Ronaldo prostrated in the field after scoring.
00:04:12.400All the players shouted, Allah wakbar, in union.
00:04:15.660However, Abdullah added to Al-Hissa Al-Akhira that regardless of whether Ronaldo decides to embrace Islam, his discipline and commitment as a player are unquestionable.
00:04:25.300He is extremely disciplined and dedicated player, and it's the discipline that has brought him to this position, he said.
00:04:31.280Abdullah also spoke about Ronaldo's humility.
00:04:33.500Nothing but nothing that both, sorry, noting that both he and his son behave in simplicity and warmth towards others.
00:04:43.100Anyone who comes to Saudi Arabia appreciates him and feels comfortable with him, he added.
00:04:47.540Now guys, subhanAllah, isn't that amazing? Isn't that profound, subhanAllah?
00:04:51.660And you know there's key factors in this, which is what?
00:05:01.200People look at your actions, they don't care about what you can recite, how good you speak, how much you can call.
00:05:05.980They don't care what you wear, foe, beard, niqab, jilbab means zero to them.
00:05:11.040Because the moment they see a niqab, and I'm saying, you know, whoever it is for that matter, or a brother in a foe, et cetera, make a mistake.
