“Barangsiapa mencari agama selain agama Islam, maka sekali-kali tidaklah akan diterima (agama itu) daripadanya, dan dia di akhirat termasuk orang-orang yang rugi.” [Ali Imran:85]

Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, meninggal di usia 50 tahun karena perhentian jantung. Alhamdulillah Michael Jackson sebelumnya telah memeluk Islam dan berganti nama menjadi Mikaeel.

Michael Jackson telah mengikuti jejak kakaknya, Jermaine Jackson memeluk Islam. Begitu pula mualaf lainnya seperti Stevie B, Cat Steven, Muhammad Ali, dan mungkin juga putri Diana seandainya dia tidak meninggal dalam kecelakaan.

Dia telah kembali kepada Allah. Semoga bisa beristirahat dengan tenang.

Berikut adalah lagu Michael Jackson, maaf ternyata lagu Zain Bikha, “Give Thanks to Allah.” Satu lagu yang sangat bagus yang membuat kita lebih dekat kepada Tuhan:

Michael Jackson Masuk Islam

Sabtu, 22 November 2008 | 13:47 WIB

Bintang pop Michael Jackson telah masuk Islam dan berganti nama menjadi Mikaeel, ungkap Daily Mail, Jumat. Penyanyi berusia 50 tahun itu dilaporkan menjadi Muslim dalam suatu upacara di rumah temannya di Los Angeles.

Michael Jackson yang dibesarkan dalam agama Saksi Jehovah, disebut-sebut duduk di lantai dan mengenakan topi kecil saat sahadat di kediaman Steve Porcaro, komposer musik pada album Thriller.

Dia tertarik dengan Islam setelah berdiskusi dengan penulis lagu asal Kanada, David Wharnsby dan produser Phillip Bubal.

“Mereka berbicara kepada dia tentang keyakinan mereka dan bagaimana mereka menjadi orang yang lebih baik setelah masuk Islam. Michael segera tertarik. Seorang Imam dipanggil dari masjid dan Michael mengucapkan sahadat,” kata seorang sumber.

Saudara Jackson, Jermaine Friday, sebelumnya telah memberi sinyal bahwa sang bintang sedang mempertimbangkan untuk memeluk Islam.

“Ketika saya pulang dari Makkah, saya beri dia banyak buku dan dia bertanya tentang banyak hal mengenai agama saya dan saya bilang Islam itu damai dan indah,” kata Friday yang masuk Islam sejak 1989. (ANT)

Los Angeles (ANTARA/Reuters) – Michael Jackson, mantan bintang cilik yang menanjak menjadi Raja Pop dunia yang selama beberapa dekade mengguncang dunia dengan lagu-lagu berirama ceria penuh tarian, meninggal dunia Kamis waktu AS (Jumat dini hari WIB) di usia ke-50, demikian Los Angeles Times seperti dikutip Reuters.

“Raja Pop Michael Jackson diumumkan meninggal dunia oleh para dokter sore ini setelah tiba di satu rumah sakit dalam keadaan koma berat, demikian pihak berwenang di kota ini kepada The Times,” begitu bunyi laporan koran tersebut dalam lamannya.

Jackson didapati menderita sakit di rumahnya dan didiagnosis tidak bernafas oleh paramedis yang segera membawanya ke satu rumah sakit.

Laporan surat kabar Los Angeles ini datang beberapa saat setelah berita pertama tentang kematian Jackson dilaporkan oleh laman TMZ entertainment yang menyatakan penyanyi legendaris itu terkena serangan jantung. Belum ada keterangan resmi dari juru bicara Jackson.

Dikenal sebagai Raja Pop karena lagu-lagunya seperti “Thriller” dan “Billie Jean,” eksistensi dramatikal Jackson dan tarian inovatifnya telah ditiru oleh para penggemarnya di seluruh dunia.

Michael Jackson ‘converts to Islam and changes name to Mikaeel’

Michael Jackson has reportedly become a Muslim and changed his name to Mikaeel.

The singer, who was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, converted to Islam in a ceremony at a friend’s house in Los Angeles.

He is said to have sat on the floor and worn a small hat while an imam officiated.

According to The Sun, the ceremony took place while Jackson, 50, was recording an album at the home of Steve Porcaro, a keyboard player who composed music on his Thriller album.

The former Jackson 5 star was counselled by David Wharnsby, a Canadian songwriter, and Phillip Bubal, a producer, who have both converted.

A source said Jackson had appeared a “bit down” and added: “They began talking to him about their beliefs, and how they thought they had become better people after they converted. Michael soon began warming to the idea.

“An imam was summoned from the mosque and Michael went through the shahada, which is the Muslim declaration of belief.”

Last year his brother, Jermaine Friday, suggested Jackson would convert having taken an interest in Islam since Friday’s conversion in 1989.

“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,” said Friday.

“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.”

MICHAEL JACKSON CONVERTS TO ISLAM

CHANGES NAME TO MIKAEEL

By NEIL SYSON, THE SUN TODAY’S HOT TOPICS

November 20, 2008

SUN EXCLUSIVE: MICHAEL JACKSON has become a Muslim – and changed his name to Mikaeel.

The skint superstar, 50, donned Islamic garb to pledge allegiance to the Koran in a ceremony at a pal’s mansion in Los Angeles, The Sun can reveal.

Jacko sat on the floor wearing a tiny hat after an Imam was summoned to officiate – days before the singer is due to appear at London’s High Court where he is being sued by an Arab sheik.

A source told last night how Jacko, brought up as a Jehovah’s Witness, decided to convert as he used a studio at the home of his chum to record a new album.

The star – whose hits include The Way You Make Me Feel – was spotted looking “a bit down” by a producer and a songwriter who had both embraced Islam.
