American pop star Michael Jackson has officially announced that he has been following the five tenets of Islam and intends to convert to Islam, according to a report on the website of Arab-Israeli newspaper Panorama.
The report is based on information elicited from sources in Bahrain.
According to the report, Jackson’s announcement noted he is moving to Bahrain and has purchased some real-estate on an artificial island there. The singer said he decided to convert to Islam because he is convinced it is the closest religion to his personal beliefs.
Jackson also noted he intends to soon move all his assets and his studio from the U.S. to Bahrain, and expressed his hope to be rid of various legal troubles and enjoy the kind of freedom he says he does not have in America.
Notably, if the reports are correct Jackson would not be the first member of his family to make the move to Islam. His brother, Jermaine, who moved to the Gulf nation of Dubai, is also a convert.
According to the sources, Jermaine was the one to provide his famous brother with books about Islam and encouraged him to convert. The report says the pop star read the books and even added his comments on some pages.
ofcourse. possibly commit pedophilia, whitewash your skin, undergo surgery (haraaaaaaam!!!! :() and then when you realize your nose is now too small to breathe and u gonna die....accept islam and expect to go to heaven :)
1- i dont know if this is true, such news come out every few years and then are shown to be bogus
2- if someone wants to make a change in his/her life let them, its their life, they are answerable to God
3- we can not have a holier than thou attitude towards others, that is not something that is liked.
4- who knows maybe he has done good deeds or will do good deeds that he will go to heaven, while you and I may not. no one really knows...we can try to do our best and hope for the best outcome.
that’s the giveaway.. with enough money to keep the sheikhs off his tail, he would have no legal troubles to worry about while having slumber parties with little imported camel jockeys..
Let us not discourage someone if he wants to be a muslim
but personally I really hope he does not become a muslim we already get more than our share of bad publicity
so far i hear its just rumors, but may Allah guide him to Islam....
shame on all those who think the guy does not deserve to be forgiven by Allah....
people have committed far worse crimes than he and have been forgiven by Allah once they were serious ni repentance....
