Muslims of Kazan will offer Hillary Clinton to adopt Islam

Moscow, October 13, Interfax - Muslims of Tatarstan intend to offer USA State Secretary Hillary Clinton to adopt Islam during her visit to Kazan.

"As an imam I have to do several things when I meet her (Clinton - IF). First, I will meet her with peace and mercy from the Almighty. Then I will tell her about monotheism and recommend to adopt Islam," the Tvoy Den paper has cited imam-khatyb of the Kazan Zakaban Mosque Said-Jafar Lotfullin as saying on Tuesday.

He also believes he should ask USA State Secretary "not to infringe on Muslims rights in America, to develop Islamic cultural centers, to build more mosques."

In frames of her visit to Russia, Clinton plans to hold talks with Tatarstan President Mintimer Shaimiyev in Kazan Kremlin and to visit Qul Sharif Mosque and the Annunciation Cathedral. She is expected to communicate with Muslim and Orthodox spiritual leaders and parishioners.
