Jermaine Jackson Says He’s A Proud Muslim: Michael Jackson Brother Reveals Why He Converted To Islam
April 5, 2017 – Jermaine Jackson Says He’s A Proud Muslim: Michael Jackson Brother Reveals Why He Converted To Islam From Christianity
The elder brother of Michael and Janet Jackson has finally revealed why dumped his original faith and converted to Islam.
In an interview with BBC, Jermaine claimed he made the decision while touring the middle East with his sister back in 1989.
He stressed that the warm embrace and the love he got from some little children forced him to have a change of mind.
He also noted that the confidence of the Muslim children he met in the Middle East shook him from within.
See what Jermaine told BBC while defending his decision:
His younger sister, Janet Jackson has also converted to Islam. It is still unsure if Jermaine influenced Janet Jackson’s decision to dump Christianity

The guy is so confused. If you are genuine christian, nothing should influence you.
That you because of unlearned children chose the religion of destruction doesn’t make it right it just prove to us how dumb you are.
No wonder you never rise like your other siblings

WELL, SINCE YOU WERE unfortunate to be a Jehovah’s Witness, I say you were never a true Christian. Again, I say there is no much departure from your former faith, because the Jehovah’s Witness and the Moslem both deny the deity of Christ, hence they are almost the same. True Christianity acknowledges Christ as God.
HENCE I SAY that you just went from frying pan to fire. I wonder what Islam told you about the birth of Christ. But just know it is 99% likely to be lies. Even the Qur’an directs its adherents to the people of the Scripture if they have unanswered questions. And by the people of the Scripture, it means Christians. But you have gone from Christianity to Islam, alas, from light to darkness!

I do not feel anything when I see or hear that someone converted to Islam from Christianity, bcos several times that I made research, I found out that they are never Christians. If a cultist, idol worshiper and other demonic beings decide to change to Islam, there is no big deal in it while do they like associating themselves to Christianity. OK, I think its Christianity that rings bell in the ears. Jehovah witness are not christian.
Metu Nyetu, thanks very much for throwing in light. Some greedy girls convert to Islam bcos one Alhaji is ready to buy them house and other worldly materials even men also convert to Islam for the love of material things, dig deep into their background, they are never Christians.
No through Christian who have seen the light in Christ Jesus will ever convert into other religion, we can only backslide but can never be converted to other religion. Jesus Christ is the LO

You better keep all those thought to yourself because you are not making sense at all.
Whoever is viewing or interpreting the HOLY BIBLE from intellectual viewpoint will be making a very big mistake, it is SPIRITUAL. So call on JESUS to open your spiritual eyes for you to understand what the HOLY BIBLE is all about.
It is about the CREATION, FALL OF MAN AND RESTORATION/REDEMPTION THROUGH THE DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST(GOD IN FLESH).

BENCH YOU ARE very correct. The nasty activities of islam in the World today has made even some muslims with functionary brains converting to Christianity.
But then what do we have in other scenerios? Some people are now choosing darkness over LIGHT! People who once claimed to be Christians are now sheepishly and stupidly converting to islam, a thing I will never dare even at a Gun point.
Well, the Holiest Book of all time has said it all:- In Proverbs 14 vs 12 KJV, the Holy Bible says: “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man “BUT“ the end thereof are the ways of death“

tThat does not reduce God, no does it reduce christianity but he never escapt his judgement and surely he will confess that Jesus christ is lord. I pray he will have a change of mine and receive christ as his personal lord and saviour.Thanks

I am eager to know what the Quran told him about the birth of Jesus Christ. Some of Black Americans I have come in contact with converted to Islam because they feel they can marry more than one wife forgetting they are in America. One of them tried it and the wife he married before he converted to Islam divorced him.

I DO NOT BELONG TO ANY RELIGION BECAUSE I AM A CO-CREATOR, I HAVE BEEN GIVING THE POWER AND THE AUTHORITY BEFORE I CAME OUT OF MY MOTHER WOMB.
SO I DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH EITHER KIRIYO OR ISAMIYARDIST,
BECAUSE CHRISTY HAVE ALREADY SAID TO YOU THAT,
YOUR BELIEF WILL HEAL YOU, IT MEANS THAT ALL THE POWER LIES WITHIN YOU,
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BRIBE ANYBODY BEFORE YOU SPEAK TO YOUR CREATOR

Outside Michael, I do not know who Jarmine Jackson is. He had been dwarfed by his most younger brother`s image. He need to find solace in Islam.

The Islam teaches us that Jesus (peace be upon him) is the messenger of GOD. Just like Noah (pbuh), Moses (pbuh), Mohammed (pbuh) and so on. In the Quran there is a chapter about Maria (maryum) mother of Jesus (pbuh). Just read it. Jesus (pbuh) prayed to God so should we.
