This article and several articles even from the USA, show that Murderers, rapists, thugs etc are converting to Islam in Prison.

  1. Is it because, islam says only muslims will go to heaven - even if they were the scum of society.
  2. OR are the Mulla’s so keen to convert anyone, they would convert the devil himself, if they could.

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

Really you should ask this question to an ex criminal and ex non muslim.

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

most criminals who convert to Islam are Black

mostly because they look at Christianity as a White Man's Religion and think of Islam as something from Africa made for the black man

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

And does it make any sense to anyone?:hoonh:

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

what is the statistics of criminals reverting to Islam and still continue with their criminal life?

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

  1. They are giving themselves boundaries so that they won't commit more crimes
  2. Camaraderie, sense of belonging and social structure within prison
  3. They do not feel that they have to capitulate to the demands of society
  4. They can justify jail time as a test of their faith
  5. Praying 5 times a day gives them something constructive to do

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

Look at this the other way; that when Criminals are in prison and they are not able to commit crimes, they get closer to Islam and finally embrace it while
when they are Free to commit crimes, they are Christians or others.

Moreover, if we talk about statistics, most of the crimes are committed in the West which proves that most of the Criminals in the world are Christians, no?

For example the Champions in Rape and Assaults against women are 2 Christian States, USA the Great and South Africa the Big.
In America a woman is raped or sexually assaulted in every two minutes.
Almost same is the condition in Europe against the Muslim countries.
Please note that in the West, laws are implemented fully, still laws can’t stop Christians to become Criminals, while in majority of Muslim countries don’t have laws enforced because of corrupt Westernized governments (Western Puppets), still Muslims commit less crimes only because even non practicing Muslims have some shame.

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

Possibly, because they (blacks) think that Whites have a bloody dark history of killing people and shedding their blood in the name of Christianity, they are still doing the same, under the flag of USA, the Christian World is shedding the blood of innocent and weak Muslims and Non-White Non Muslims both. So blacks might think that Islam is a religion to protect rights of those who are persecuted, weak and suppressed.

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

seminole I have a feeling that if u stay on this site for too long us moooozlimz may just convert you :D

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

In fact, if Blacks or others in prison don't embrace Islam, they will come out of jails as more violent Criminals with Christianity as their faith, no?

To understand this, ponder on what a man would feel when he is confined in a jail?

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam


I already had the honor of being accused of being a Muslim just today! (BTW, revert is the proper terminology)

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam


With apologies to your pompousness and righteousness, there have also been those who have left jail being brainwashed into violent, anti-social activities from the more radical Muslims.

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

totally agree :k:

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

jazak Allah khair brother for correcting me

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

i was thinkin on that too.
Perhaps reverting gives them a new chance at everything.

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

binAdam.. most of the criminals in the west are christians because..most of the ppl in the west ARE christians... OFCOURSE !..... it doesnt have much to do with christianity... they are not committing the crimes in the name of christianity.. christianity is beyond that stage... they have had their renassiance...

its funny how you compare the criminal rate of the west with muslim countries.. in the west they have proper surveys and statistics.. such information is largely unavailable in the muslim world.. you like to blame christianity for a lot of things becuase christian countries today are 'rich and bullyish' as you might thing.. but.... why dont u give some credit to christianity because of all the scientific and technological development of the "christian" world? of all the liberalism and the spiritual righteousness that largely exists (or is aspired atlesat) in the "christian world"?

"christian countries" have elevated the standard of human life in amazing ways... this computer and internet you're on right now was developed by the "christian countries" too.. same with your cellphone tv electric bulbs heating airconditioning radio etc ETC ETC ETC... so please don't try to blame christianity for a few controversial/bad things the christians do and ignore all the great things that they've done !

PS - Their development and success has very little to do with Christianity.. most of their awakening happened because they actually questioned the authority of the church.. I personally wouldnt credit all their achievements to "christianity".. just like I wouldnt discredit it because of the few ills existent in "christian society".. but if you're doing the latter, you better do the former too...

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

Well, for information, majority of rapes and sexual assaults in American are not reported, you should correct your facts through statistics. Then laws are enforced and properly implemented in the West because their best system of governance, I do accept their services to the betterment of life, I don't deny that, in fact I prefer their system of governance over the Hypocritical system of Muslim Countries, because majority of so called Muslims today are worse than the people of West in many respects e.g in social behaviour or business dealings, but at the same time, they are not so daring to rape a woman as women are raped in America or in the Europe, though in the West rapists are often caught but in Muslim countries like Pakistan they are not, and the victims don't get any justice from the State, because the State itself is corrupt. In the West State is not corrupt.

So my point was only that the people of the West who by belief are Christians commit more crimes, produce more atmospheric pollution, manufacture more weapons, sell them to poor countries so they fight together and more demand of weapons is created, kill more human beings, massacre more children and women than anyone else. No one can deny that.

As for computers, cars, and other advancements of technology, human beings can live without all such inventions, as they lived hundreds of years ago, but they can't live with Nuclear Weapons hanging on their heads, Cruise Missiles and Weapons of Mass Destruction killing them and their children e.g in Afghanistan, Iraq and Palestine.

If West has invented these items then that is for their own benefit, they need a market to consume their products, if they invented computers then it is themselves who are taking benefits from their sale in Muslim countries, no? Same is with all the things.
In short they gave this world a little but taken back lots of things, e.g Peace and Life.

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

how about medicine and all :)

its damned if you do and damned if you dont, what the west contributes to our civilization you wantthem to give it for free..contribution is a very diff thing than commercisalizatin.

whether it is for 'their' benefit or not. the contributions can not be denied.

yeah we can live without cars, planes, phones, computers etc...but we can live without a lot of diff things, dunn mean one goes to live in a cave wearing an animal pelt and killing its prey with a club and eating it raw.

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

^^ lol.. yeah..

binAdam..come on bro.. say it..the "christian world" has a lot more positive contributions to the world (all science and technology, tv computer internet radio cars planes blah blah i can go on for 3 days with this list.. ETC ETC ETC)... than the 'negative' ones (dominating poor countries..nuclear weapons..)...

il copy paste this bit again from my pevious post..read carefully.. please do..
"I personally wouldnt credit all their achievements to "christianity".. just like I wouldnt discredit it because of the few ills existent in "christian society".. but if you're doing the latter, you better do the former too..."

Re: Why criminals convert to Islam

just watch Malcolm X and you will see a black guy converting to Christianity and the reasons behind it

most blacks criminals convert to Islam because they are led to beleive that Islam is a Black Man's religion where as Christianity is the white devil's religion
