Why does anyone convert to Islam?
#18
RE: Why does anyone convert to Islam?
I know of one person who converted to Islam while he spent time behind bars. He bought into it so completely that when he got out and his girlfriend got pregnant, they gave the baby a very Islamic name...how he talked her into that I will never know. His 'conversion' was a way to get through what he was facing at the time. The son now goes by a rather Anglo name.

I don't find it unusual for people to adopt certain things when they need, or think they need, those things. Whatever gets you through the night, as it were.
