Konu: Some comparison
Let's say that a church (Christian, for example) decides to give charity to poor people somewhere, say Afghanistan. Then they send missionaries to convert the locals to Chistianity. Is it acceptable to give help on the understanding that those being helped by the church will convert to the Christianity?

Now, let's say that a Moslem organization decides to help homeless people somewhere closer to home, let's say Detroit. Then that Moslem organization sends their Imam among the homeless to try to convert them to Islam. Is it acceptable to give help on the understanding that those being helped will covert to Islam?

Does religion have a place in charity when those being helped are expected to convert?

I say it because in many develkoping countries aid organizations work that way. "We will help you, but only if you come to our church." What if the religion was other than Christianity? Would it be acceptable?
