Taking to Instagram, Ali posted a picture with Sunita and tenders an apology
(Web Desk) - YouTuber Nadir Ali has apologised, claiming that his objective was not to "hurt anyone," following a contentious podcast conversation with Pakistani Christian model Sunita Marshall.
If someone wishes to alter their religion, she advised them to learn it by heart; otherwise, it would be pointless.
Taking to Instagram, Ali posted a picture with Sunita and an apology.
"My intentions during the podcast with Sunita Marshall were not to hurt her or anyone's feelings at all. It was just out of curiosity that I asked her about her plans of conversion to Islam," Ali clarified.
He further wrote: "Religion is a personal choice and I respect people of all beliefs. It is my wish and the wish of 1.9 billion Muslims to see people come to Islam but of course with their own choice!
"If still my words have hurt the feelings of anyone, I APOLOGIZE!"
In a recent podcast, Ali asked Sunita why she did not convert to Islam yet when her in-laws and husband were Muslims.
"There is no pressure on me for converting to Islam from Hassan or his family. However, people sometimes comment on Instagram, but it doesn't matter to me," she remarked.
When questioned if her in-laws have ever tried to get her to convert, Sunita responded that they have never done so and added that they are all "very good" to her.
Nadir Ali was criticised by users for asking uncalled for questions to Sunita.
But on Wednesday, Sunita pleaded with her Instagram followers to quit 'harassing' Ali. However, she pleaded with them "to kindly not harass the interviewer anymore" after thanking them for their support.
