1.2M views · 14K reactions | Romania is one of Europe's lesser-known corners, with a rich and fascinating history. Having come through tough times, today it's a member of the European Union, clearly on the upswing, and a rewarding place to explore. In this clip from my new TV episode about Romania, we visit vibrant Bucharest. The full episode is airing now on public television (check your local listings) and online at ricksteves.com/tv. | Rick Steves | Facebook

We went for a brief tour of Bucharest (capital of Romania) with Shaykh Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani (حفظه الله), and were given an account of the country’s history by a brother named Ibrahim, whilst walking in the courtyard of the Parliment Palace. Ibrahim travelled 200 kilometres in order to meet the shaykh. He is Romanian by origin and embraced Islam some ten years ago. In this video, he informs us of his love for Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani and for his works. | Muhammad ibn Adam al-Kawthari
