Although he gets a phone call threatening his life every other day, the man maintains the composure of someone from a military background.

 

"You are a Shia, an infidel. Your doom is nearing," says an ominous voice from the other end of the phone.

 

Initially, he thought it was a joke. "I would simply laugh it off. 'Oh really, so I am an infidel. Let's meet up'," he would say to the caller. 

But the threats just would not stop. In fact, it became a whole lot more serious.
