Ibrahim Richmond was a pastor for 15 years and a church leader in South Africa.
His great preaching skills made him followed by many congregations.
Total followers in South Africa at that time approximately 100,000 people.
Ibrahim said his life changed after having a similar dream several times in which a voice told him: “Tell your people to wear white clothes.”
He tried to describe the Taqiya, skullcap or cap or the white hat worn by many Muslims for prayer, to the white robes that Muslims usually wear.
At first, he didn’t pay much attention to it and called it “just a dream” because the order was related to Muslims.
