    Korean singer who converted to Islam set to construct mosque in Korea

    Famous South Korean pop singer and YouTuber, Daud Kim, who became a Muslim five years ago, said he’s going to build a mosque in Incheon.
    Taking to Instagram, Kim shared pictures of the land he purchased for the mosque and the contract.

    “At last, with your support, I’ve signed a contract for the land to build a mosque in Incheon.”

    “This place will soon be a mosque. I can’t believe this day has come,” he wrote in his post.
    He plans to build a place for prayers and an Islamic podcast studio for Da’wah to Koreans.
    Kim said, “I think this is a really big step. There will be tough times, but I believe I can do it. I’ll keep working until every street in Korea hears the beautiful Azan. I’ll do my best,” Kim promised.

    “To build the mosque, I need financial support. If you want to help, please donate here. Thank you very much,” Kim said.

    Daud Kim, who used to be called Kim Kyun-woo and went by the name Jay Kim, is a singer, actor, and YouTuber from South Korea.
    In September 2019, Kim made a YouTube video saying he had become a Muslim.
    He often talked about wanting to go to Makkah and Madina.
    In Ramadan 2022, Kim went for Umrah.
