“The Believers, men and women, are protectors one of another: they enjoin what is just, and forbid what is evil: they observe regular prayers, practice regular charity, and obey Allah and His Messenger. On them will Allah pour His mercy: for Allah is Exalted in power, Wise. “[9:71]
Since I have started with some posts of demise of Michael Jackson, I feel that I should update some information about controversies in his alleged reversion to Islam.
Most of the Muslim youth who loved Michael, hope and wish their beloved Pop Star to be a Muslim and die as a believer . But as I pointed out in my previous post, that will be only for Michael to be pardoned and forgiven by Allah SWT or rewarded according to his deeds.
There will be more rumors expected to be read over www, to test and shake the faith of Muslim youths relating to this current events. At the same time, there are enormous lessons for those who are ready to reflect in this tragic death of the Pop Star.
It is very clear that all of us have equal chance of choice that is, to believe or not to believe in Allah.There are ample of signs to reflects the existence of Allah, for all of us who are sincere in seeking the TRUTH..
I was born in other part of the world as a minority Muslim, but when I saw Jermaine Jackson shed tears, when mentioning Allah SWT, I could understand his inner sense as, we believe in the same faith, Islam.
There are no boundaries for the believing people of Islam, which is Universal Religion for all mankind.
Allah knows the best,

The best of Michael Jackson // June 29, 2009 at 5:12 pm
My heart goes out to the family of Michael Jackson especially his children. I am still in shock about his death. I believe that Michael Jackson contributed alot when it comes to the music business. He had a remarkable talent. He was the inspiration for a lot of other musicians. Michael has definitely left his mark and his music will continue to live on. I remember as a child growing up listening to his music. One of my favorite songs when he was a child was Ben. Michael has inspired millions of people through his music.

Great post – Michael Jackson was an amazing talent, and the sky is less bright without his star in it. This past week has been a tough one for Hollywood -Ed McMahon, Billy Mays, Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett. To many bright stars going dim all at once…
