| Salam alaikum, This is what I found: Muslim Leaders Salute Will Smith Muslim leaders across America are saluting Will Smith for embracing their religion after completing the Muhammad Ali biopic. Smith was introduced to the religion while learning about the legendary boxer's life - Islam is Ali's religion of choice. Friends close to Smith claim the megastar is now embracing the religion in his own life and is eager to learn more about it. Director of the American Muslim Association of North America, Sofian Zakkout says, "Muhammad Ali is one of the best examples of Muslims in this country. He's been a wonderful spokesperson for the religion and if Will Smith can continue Muhammad Ali's work that would be wonderful." He continues, "Islam is a peaceful religion and if good people such as Muhammad and Will can carry that message then it would be wonderful. It would be a positive message for peaceful Muslims all over the world." Smith appeared at the America: A Tribute To Heroes telethon in September alongside Ali, defending Islam in the wake of the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington. http://us.imdb.com/WN?20011109#9 And here is an article that says it’s a rumor: Famous People who are NOT Converts to Islam The following famous individuals have been the subject of widely circulated but completely fabricated "conversion to Islam" rumors: · Neil Armstrong · Jacques Cousteau · Michael Jackson · Will Smith http://www.adherents.com/largecom/famconv_islam.html Allahu Alim |
