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.

Salam~~ i really like this song.. i `m sure is really michael jackson voice…. i know that … i trust .. michael JS is change …. Allah give all of the world Haydaryat … SAlam all
I know that that is not michael jackson if though it sounds like him because how could he actual pronouce the word ghafful or rahim.
Mashallah
Hi.. my friends.. i dont believe this, that MJ has accepted the Islam… This is true he did alot of mistakes in his life acording to Islam.. but Islam is the religion of peas.
If any one accept the islam during the last breath , that one counts in Islam.. Allah is Qafoor And Rahim.. May be Gad forgive him… He have alot money he can help the muslims to make the mosque and hospitals.. and madrasas for an good islamic education … i know My God will forgive him… thanks bye..
The song Thanks to Allah was sung by Zain Bhikha!!! A south african talented artists who sings only islamic songs!!! The voice in the song is NOT mickeal jakson
like all others i'm also stunned at the voice,i can't beleive that a rockstar can speak and pronounciate arabic in such a good and comprehensive way.
i had heard this hamd on television before,in ramadan-ul-mubarak.but i didn't recognised him until now.micheal jackson had been astonishing us all by his excellent songs,and now he has again gave us a shocking performance.but after hearing the hamd ,i still don't beleive that a worlds biggest rock star can convert to islam.many other,before me,said that it's someone else but untilll and unless we see with our own eyes no one can beleive in it.
in a verse of holy quran it is said:"…whether ye hide in your hearts or reveal it Allah knows it all"
If MJ has been converted to islam then it's a very good thing.and if he is still a christian may aalah bless him and show him the right path.Thank you
ALLAH HAFIZ

assalamualaikum..ohh man..it is not MJ song? so..the sound .. same what!..i dont care!! ..i know it..that song is sing by MJ..haa MJ ..i know it..hehe(hopefully)…i have a band..Nasyid band..i will use this song for my opening ceremony at my shop ..heheh thanks u all..bye..assalamualaikum!
Why all the people in the world do always talk about the faith of the people? This MJ for example. Why did people not ask MJ directly when he still was alive that what is actually his faith?
Moreover, the faith is between relation ship between human and GOD? In Indonesia for example, there are some of men/women crazy because of the religion. They can not control their selves and finally they get crazy (come into stroke center for teraphy).
There are a thousand people in the world that same sound each other. I also can sing like MJ, really. People of course will think that MJ has not died yet if I will sing now, maybe people will say MJ woke up for singing… haha…
That my friend is mj's voice listen to el muhsinin in arabic and in english,how he pronounce then you will know.For an arabic it is their mother tongue but for mj he knows how to make it rhyme so, that is mj voice and give peace a chance so as jlennon tried to say.Let the man rest in peace,want to know ,read the Quran and the sunnah Rasullullah saw.
That is so MJ's voice cuz i compared this song to one of zain's own songs and "Give thanks to Allah" does not sound like zain's voice so it is concluded it is MJ's voice.
You guys don't know? C'mon it's written by michael jackson but zain bikha sang it
What the heck is wrong with you guys ???! I mean whats so wrong in him accepting Islam. I believe he sang because I want to believe that. (lolx)… Btw I am not a music freak. but come on, he can sing …! I agree with Saad harris … Give him a chance…. he has suffered a lot already … :'(
Now I am not sure I completely agree with you on this article. Even so I am normally amenable to new options. Will have to think about it. Solid site by the way.
Listen to the first statement made by the brother jermaine.With this infor we can gather the truth.The news after that is a totally different.We just follow our hearts and that's that.Even if we agree or disagree mj's past away peacefully,pray that he is better after life.What religion he is,he is a good person just like Elvis.
Interesting web site and worthwhile post. I really enjoy Michael's songs a lot. I've marked it to come back later.
that IS mjs song, you ppl never heard his other songs that means..
