What happens to a person that gets someone to convert

Submitted by confused (United States), Jan 11, 2009 at 03:40

I was wondering what happens to someone who got a person to convert to islam. I mean, i understand that the person who is converting has all of his/her sins forgiven, but does the God forgive all of the sins to the person that helped him/her convert or no? I know that all of the muslim people get really excited if someone says that they are going to convert, but still do not fully understand why... Someone mentioned that sins of all of the people that are in the same place as the converting person during the conversion, get their sins forgiven. Can anyone answer this question?
