Answer

Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullah

Brother/Sister in Islam

It is not clear whether you are a male or a female. If you are a male you should assist the person to understand Islam. You should also make Dua for him. If you are a female, then refer the person to a reliable Muslim male to assist him. You can make general Dua of guidance for non Muslims.

And Allah Knows Best
