Michael Jackson to convert to Islam?
Michael Jackson is planning to convert to Islam, according to his brother Jermaine.

The troubled pop legend was recently given some books on the religion by his Celebrity Big Brother contestant brother, who became a Muslim in 1989.

Jermaine told The Muslim News: "When I came back from Mecca I got him a lot of books and he asked me lots of things about my religion and I told him that it's peaceful and beautiful.

"He read everything and he was proud of me that I found something that would give me inner strength and peace. I think it is most probable that Michael will convert to Islam. He could do so much, just like I am trying to do. Michael and I and the word of God, we could do so much."
