I am sick of seeing people milking MJ's death to promote their own agenda (while praising his talents/charisma and being careful about the controversies). I am wondering what this Sheikh would have written if he had known MJ didn't convert to Islam? Come on Sheikh Yusuf, this is not about you or Islam or your agenda of how pathetic/materialistic American society is and how Islam is the cure for this society. Atleast let the moment of MJ's death, be about him.
Peace american pie
So you knew MJ then? Or you attempt to know the position of Shaykh Hamza?
Read the article for what it is ... and now you realise this ...
1) The media propped up MJ
2) The media tried to take him down with controversy
3) The media laments his death
Islam is the cure for the American pie society ... says who not just Hamza Yusuf an American Christian who became Muslim, but also Shaykh Zaid Shakir, Malcolm X, Imam Siraj Wahaj and many more people who have not only converted to Islam but are holding the torch for Islam as well.
