Would be relatively normal for him

The way you Mecca me feel

MICHAEL JACKSON has become a Muslim — and changed his name to MIKAEEL.

The skint superstar, 50, donned Islamic garb to pledge allegiance to the Koran in a ceremony at a pal’s mansion in Los Angeles, The Sun can reveal.

Jacko sat on the floor wearing a tiny hat after an Imam was summoned to officiate — days before the singer is due to appear at London’s High Court where he is being sued by an Arab sheik.


A source told last night how Jacko, brought up as a Jehovah’s Witness, decided to convert as he used a studio at the home of his chum to record a new album.

The star — whose hits include The Way You Make Me Feel — was spotted looking “a bit down” by a producer and a songwriter who had both embraced Islam.
Shahada

The source said: “They began talking to him about their beliefs, and how they thought they had become better people after they converted. Michael soon began warming to the idea.

“An Imam was summoned from the mosque and Michael went through the shahada, which is the Muslim declaration of belief.” Mikaeel is the name of one of Allah’s angels.

“Jacko rejected an alternative name, Mustafa — meaning “the chosen one”.

Brit singer Yousef Islam, 60 — who was called Cat Stevens until he famously converted — turned up to help Jacko celebrate.

It was his pals David Wharnsby — a Canadian songwriter — and producer Phillip Bubal who counselled Jacko.

The pair’s new names are Dawud Wharnsby Ali and Idris Phillips.

Jacko now prays to Mecca after the ceremony at the Hollywood Hills home of Toto keyboard player Steve Porcaro, 51, who composed music on the singer’s Thriller album.

Jacko, who rarely ventures out without a mask, is due to give evidence on Monday in a £4.7million lawsuit brought by Prince Abdulla Al-Khalif of Bahrain.

The sheik claims he bankrolled the singer’s lavish lifestyle in exchange for an exclusive recording contract. The billionaire sent songs for him to record but claims he was blanked.

He told the court yesterday: “Many times he confirmed to me he would pay me back.”

Doesn't he still have a warrant out for him? Isn't that the reason he fled to Dubai?

I have just figured out another reason why I could never be a Muslim...

GAAAAAH!!!! NO!!!!

That sound GRATES on my ears like no other.

Didn't he try this once before when he got in trouble?

Remember when he was going to /or did join the Nation of Islam about the time he got arrested for kiddie diddling?

I thought it was just me....It just sounds like my cat when she is in heat (no disrespect to any Muslims on the board)

What's this joker gunna do next?

He turned himself white, porks young boys, and converted to Islam.

What can he possibly do that will surprise us at this point?

Speaking of Michael...

. . .  or your child's cornhole.

Be a straight black guy

The noise reminded me of an air raid siren.

The big block reminded me of the black monument in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Her brother Jermaine has been Muslim for 20+ years

I see what you did

I though you had to have a beard to be a mooselim?

Happiness would be seeing the Michael Jackson beheading video on Aljazeera.

Billie Jean is still an awesome song.

I heard he likes his men like he likes his scotch: 12 years old and full of coke.

Are they going to make him wear a burkha?

He heard about man-love thursdays and signed right up.

All I can say is:

Here's hoping that he goes apostate in about a year, then gets his head sawed off on al jazeera.

When I was in baghdad in 04 one of the few English phrases every illiterate peopn seemd to know was "michael jackson".
