It ain’t fresh news but for a upwards of one year there has been a constant rumor that Michael Jackson might embrace Islam, the rumor resurfaced again recently when it was heard that he might be actually moving to Bahrain and is presently funding the construction of a mosque in Bahrain. Just recently I came across Give Thanks to Allah an MP3 file of him allegedly singing a Hamd (an Islamic song).
[audio:https://teeth.com.pk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/01/michealjackson_sislam.mp3]The Hamd is really good, and it really sounds like him but on critical evaluation I feel that it is unlikely that it is MJ himself as the Arabic pronunciation is very defined and clear. Hear the Hamd and tell me your reaction on the whole affair.

ive been hearing dis hamd from last 4 days and its wonderful … it realyy gives peace in the heart.. i dont know who sung it .. if its MJ o not … but who ever it is … he really has put alot of feeling in it .. n arcording to me .. i do think its MJ
Why do you people think MJ wont Sing a song of Islam.. its not like the first Person that sang a muslim song when he’s not a true muslim.. well my point of view is that he liked de religion and he wanted to make a song out of it.. or You could say money.!!
i loveeeeeeee this song
if he really embraced islam, Alhamdul Lllahi.
rukayat
I think that this song is MJ’s voice alright. But the arabian pronunciation of words like rahim and ghafoor are very clear. So according to that, maybe his voice was immitated.
Hellow,
A happy micheal is now a muslim.
Thanks to God for that
DATS ZAIN BIKKA U JOKERZ…DATS NOT MJ TRUST ME I GOT DA ALBUM..
AS SALAM WALAYKUM, Michael Jackson welcome to ISLAM -The religion of Peace.I appreciate ur decission to building up of Mosque.Brother Jackson dont be afraid of any one when All Mighty ALLAH is with u.Make ur official announcement about being an Muslim.I wish ur project for building up the music academies comes true.
From ur Brother

Hello there eveyone!!
Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. More people are converting to Islam than any other relgion in the world. It is no big surprise that Michaeal Jackson has converted to Islam, there are other celebrities I know who have converted to Islam like MOHAMMAD ALI, CAT STEVES NOW KNOWN AS YOUSUF ISLAM, AND MICHAEL JACKSONS OWN BROTHER JERMAINE JACKSON. Celebrites are just ordinary people, only popular. MJ is a Muslim now, God has shown him the right path, god will continue to guide people to the right path. So learn a lesson from Michaeal, you fans of MJ!! Read, think, discover, feel, open your mind, dont shut your mind up with false media nuisances that cover up the truth.
Its not Michael Jackson, He is Zain Bhikha. A South African talent. Visit http://www.zainbhikha.com to download his other Nasheeds too.
I hope, that MJ has embraced Islam, and if not then Insha-Allah he with all others non-Muslims he will.
Ameen
MJ HAS DECLARED THAT HE IS A PRACTISING MUSLIM, THAT HIS PERSONAL BELIEFS ARE SIMILAR TO THAT OF ISLAM. HE HAS SAID SO HIMSELF.STOP WASTING TIME AND DOUBTING WHETHER HE IS A MUSLIM OR NOT. HE IS IN BAHRAIN NOW, NOT IN USA. THERE ARE PROOFS EVEYWHERE MEDIA INTERNET MAGAZINES THAT MJ IS A MUSLIM. EXCEPT IT THAT THE KING OF POP OF AMERICA HAS ACCEPTED ISLAM AND IS LIVING IN A MUSLIM COUNTRY WITH FELLOW MUSLIMS. MAY ALLAH BLESS MJ. AMEN. PEACE.
i think it will be nice for him
I have personally spoken to michael jackson and yes that is him!!! soo stop talking about it and enjoy the song….alsalam alykum
every1! THAT IS NOT MICHEAL JACKSON !!!ITS MY FAVOURITE SINGER ZAIN BHIKHA
i dont know who is the singer bt the song is the most beautiful english song i have ever heard though i’m Bangladeshi.Thanks a lot to the singer.
byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
-Syed Iftekhar Ahmed
He still the king
I’m islamic man from Syria, and he just amaze me by this great ability to say the arabic words and letters, soecially the “KK” khaliKona that “K” is just a miracle.
Viva the King MJ
well that ius michael jackson.. i saw his interview right now he is in b bahrain and is a resident over dere………..
1.Its kinda hard for the west to accept an icon like Micheal to be muslim yeah, well if he didnt sing that song, since its a great song where is the so called Zain Bhika the real singer, am sure he would wanna take credit for Allah is Great.
2. Micheal is an Artist he has been doing songs for the past 40yrs now how could you not possibly believe he could sing the wording so perfectly, i mean take a look at Hollywood those guys immitate anyone and anything, come on guys cant you let a Brother be what he wanna be.
3. Assalamu Allaikum welcome to Islam MJ this is the best choice you made in ur entire life.
What ever your belive whether it was MJ or not, you must admit that the words used in the Hamad to praise Allah are so powerfull,true and convincing about Islam and the rightous ways,In short it touches the soul.
I still belive even MJ came out today and told the world he did write and sing the song you HATERS will still not accept it, its just like you saying Christ will come on the last day to save you and when that day comes you will be the same people that will castigate him and classify him a false Prophet.Its nothing new its just signs and wonders of the last days.
Assalaamu-alaikum.
I also came across some info that Michael Jackson has come out with a nasheed. I then tried to find it on the Internet, but all I could find was the nasheed by Zain Bhikha. It is definitely Zain Bhikha singing the nasheed. Zain Bhikha is a South African of Indian descent and has been singing for a while. He has a bit of a sweet voice, perhaps resulting in some thinking that it is michael jackson.
I do hope that it is true that MJ has accepted Islam or will accept some day. I also hope that if he does, he would produce some good anasheed(nasheeds)!
(P.S. Nice site and interesting comments. My suggestion for this site, however, is that you place the most recent entry on the top rather than the bottom, as people might not get to read the new entries if they are at the bottom.)
Was-Salaam!
Thats not MJ thats Zain Bika
Just to clarify, that is certainly not MJ. It is in fact Zain Bikha. If you listen to his ‘hamds’ or nasheeds you will realise that it is in fact on one of his CD’s. It does sound a little like MJ, but it is not. Its from either Zain Bikha’s OUr Wolrd cd or another one. Take care.
That’s a surprise! This is actually time to show that Allah is Great!
Congretulations to Jacko! Bravo!
Zain Bhikha is the singer, not Michael Jackson. and he is not a muslim 🙂
hello all
i love michael and that’s all his conversion to islam has made more respect for him to me i love him very much
long live the “KING OF POP”.
later
hassan malik

ISLAM IS A RELIGION OF PEACE COME AND JOIN THE WINNING TEAM.

Well, listen guys: The neo-cons in the US is too well-known for carrying out propaganda. These days the enemy no.1 is Islam. That explains MOST of the attacks on Islam, or anything or anyone that promotes it. Now, the latest in this series is about Pat Tillman, who was assassinated in Afghanistan because he was voicing his opinions against the war. But in the end, truth prevails, always. And what more, the culprits will have to pay a heavy price for all the pains and suffering and lies they committed.

This is great that Micheal embrace the true religion “Islam”.
May Allah gave him all kind of bessings.
! AMEEN !
(-: ALLAH KHAAFIZ 🙂
I think the one whos singing the song is Zain Bhikha and i do suspect of the Embracing of Michael Jackson but that nthing is impossible on the Almighty SWT as u know, so if it’s true or false this is something between him and his God as i believe weather celebrities or normal people they’re just same.
Assalamolaikum everyone,
1.Enough publicity to Michael Jackson..MJ joining not joining making no diff to the Light of Islam InshaAllah..
2.Nausheed sung by ZAIN BHIKHA is a known fact…however im not much interested in who sung it..What im interested in is that its sung very beautifully and frm the deepest corner of the heart…
Allahamdulillah fills the heart with feeling that states the greatness of God!!!!
I don’t know why cant you ppl accept Michael Jackson as a Muslim. Why do u keep on proving that hes not one of us.Just stop arguing and accept the truth, i know sometimes when ur loved ones do something strange it’s hard to accept it but u gotta accept whats th truth. And once one becomes Muslim Allah gives him the correct and clear QURAN pronunciation, so don’t spread rumors and become Muslims.
Salam Alaykum ppl
This Nasheed was sung Zain Bhikha and even the way he pronounces Allah’s names its obvious its a muslim guy and who has been in Islam for a looong time.If Michael Jackson has converted then Allhamdulillah But Muslim ppl don’t get too excited for nothing.Wait First atleast let him stay in Islam for atleast a year…..Then we’ll know.
And Again THE SINGER IS ZAIN BHIKHA FROM SOUTH AFRICA
je m’appelle ayman mellouki j’ai 17 ans .Je suis tres heureux pour l’islame de monsieur michael jackson et salut
A.O.A
I THINK THAT WE ALL SHOULD WELCOM MJ IN OUR BROTHERHOOD. WE HEARD BOTH MJ & ZAIN THERE IS A LITTL BUT CLEAR DIFFERENCE IN THEIR VOICES. WE CAN CNFIDENTLY SAY THAT ITS MJ’S VOICE.
MAY ALLAH BLESS MJ WITH ALL HIS GIFTS.
Asslaamwalekum,
I am very much happy that MJ has accepted islam God blessed him …………………..
ASSALAmwalekum,
I will be very much happy if MJ will convert into islam god blessed him may ALLAH shower his blessing on MJ and may all his problems be Solved.
ASSALAmwalekum,
I will be very much happy if MJ will convert into islam god blessed him may ALLAH shower his blessing on MJ and may all his problems be Solved.
these lines are from Sohail and i agree with him but . .
as mary says ”
THATS NOT MICHAEL JACKSON’S VOICE. THAT IS SOME 1 ELSE.IT IS IMPOSSIBLE ON ANY NEW JOINER TO ISLAM TO SPELL THE ARABIC LETTERS PERFECTLY”.
THATS MY VIEWS AND ALLAH KNOWS THE TRUTH.
Salamin Aleykum.My name is Ilahe.am a muslim girl. i think it doesnt matter somebody is muslim somebody christian. But we believe the same God. We believe ALLAH.i believe that MJ is the singer of this music. he is a muslim.i am very happy that am a muslim.because islam is the reiligion which means friendship freedom and which cause to help to people. thanks for attention.
May Allah bless us all
Love Micheal and may Allah direct him
am very hapy 4 him being a muslim, hope he will be 4ever
may ALLAH give him hidayah..
Assalamualaikum! I was once a devoted catholic from Philippines. I worked in Bahrain for half a year with my band. I really loved Bahrain. It changed the way I looked into Islam. Now I lived in Indonesia as a Muslim married to a perfect Muslim woman. If Allah opened our eyes, we see the real world and the truth. Our hearts surely follows. MJ also deserves a change. Maybe Allah gave him a chance. And hey, I consider Bahrain as a Paradise. Allahuakbar!
DOES IT MATTER???? WHAT OTHER MUSLIMS HAVE ACHIVED???? IT IS ALL ??????????????
I`m sure he`s not MJ.I`m a music whiz.I listen 2 music all day long & I`m not mistaken.I`ve never been.Any way when ask the other poeple in my country about it they`ll all say it`s not true just look at him & all the things he`s done!! It`s not really matters 2 me.If it`s true lucky him!! And God 4give any1 he wants WHOEVER.
AT FIRST I WAS VERY HAPPY WHEN I HEARD THE NEWS OF MJ BEING A MUSLIM. WHEN I TOLD ABOUT THIS TO MY PARENTS, THEY TOLD IF HE HAD EMBRASSED ISLAM HE WOULD HAVE CHANGED HIS NAME. DONT LOOK AT HIS PAST. ABOUT THE NASHEED 95% IT SOUNDS LIKE ZAIN AND 5% IT SOUNDS LIKE MJ
