Effect of Brother's Conversion
Jackson may have been inspired by the example of his brother, Jermaine Jackson, who converted to Islam in 1989. In 2007, Jermaine said that he expected Michael to convert at some point.The Telegraph: Michael Jackson 'Converts to Islam and Changes Name to Mikaeel' (November 21, 2008)Quotes
"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."—Jermaine JacksonThe Telegraph: Michael Jackson 'Converts to Islam and Changes Name to Mikaeel' (November 21, 2008)-
