Wow… you can’t make this up:

The latest rumour of pop singer Britney Spears possibly converting to Islam and moving to Pakistan with her companion Adnan Ghalib has set off a debate among women in the country.

The grapevine is abuzz with twice-divorced singer Spear’s romance with little known Ghalib, a man of Pakistani origin. Spears, according to Britain’s Sun newspaper, wanted to fake her death and embrace Islam and move to Pakistan and start a new life!

I also found this amusing… Why a Pakistani man?

… “I think Pakistani men are more committed and, of course, the Pathan genes hold them in good stead. Britney Spears is hardly a good example - well, she could fall for anyone - but we have had Jemima and Diana too falling for Pakistani men.”

    Believe it when you see a hijab or official announcement or press release. If it’s true, then alhamdulillah. May all afflicted celebrities (and really, most all of them have afflictions, don’t they?) find the Sirat al-Mustaqeem through the deen of Islam.

    I’ve been making du’aa’ for Britney since I heard her say she didn’t know her purpose in life. Allahu ‘Alim what Allah (SWT) has in store, but we know that it would save her life and turn things completely around, insha’Allah (SWT). Let us also remember that she’s just human.

    Is Adnan even muslim? If you goggle his name you find multiple images of him clearly wearing a cross.

    We should see it with our own two eyes if Britney is really serios enough to commit herself to islam :|

    If it’s true, I wish her the best and hope she is still interested in Islam even if the guy turns out to be a jerk (it happens).

    IIt’s obviously a hoax, unless Britney’s boyfriend enjoys wearing Christian symbols: more on my post

    BUT DIANA WENT TO DODI OUT OF NO CHOICE. WHEREAS HASNAT’S family would not accept his marriage to Princess Diana, Dodi’s dad was so desperate for it to take place. So he really in hindsight, Dodi was the option.

    Hey, I was just reading this, and I noticed you’re mentioned here:

    “New York-based blogger Hahmed.com responded to the story, saying:

    Wow… you can’t make this up”

    A few of the other people who commented here are also mentioned there…

    We have enough pieces of garbage polluting our once proud religion, we don’t need new ones adding to the stench.

    I think the west has terribly defaced Islam to such a great extent that whenever we hear Islam anywhere we start abusing it and condemn muslims from the world society. I think it is grossly unjust. We muslims respect Jesus and Moses as much as Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) (peace be upon him), and if we don’t then its a terrible sin. I am from Pakistan and my country is shown to the world as the most backward and militant nation on the face of this earth. I request each one of you to just visit it once and be the judge yourself; your misconceptions will be wiped away. We are educated and a civilised nation. My sis-in-law happens to be an American living in karachi, we love her and she loves us too. She hasnt changed herself at all in becoming a Pakistani. You will find Women in Karachi and from other 13 metros of Pakistan, as liberated as any woman living elsewhere in the western country. And we are progressive and peace loving people.

    And as for Britney’s decision for converting to Islam; let it be her prerogative. You American people are said to be liberals and respecting other peoples mind. My plea to you all is don’t disgrace a woman, as she is a daughter and a sister to someone. Please don’t scandalise her.

    And lastly, Britney it would indeed be an honour to have you in our country. We will honour you so much that America never dared thought of giving you.
