I'm very happy to hear Sinead O'Connor, the famous singer from Ireland, has converted to Islam.
She wrote, "This is to announce that I am proud to have become a Muslim. This is the natural conclusion of any intelligent theologian’s journey. All scripture study leads to Islam which makes all other scriptures redundant. I will be given (another) new name. It will be Shuhada’ "
I grew up in the 80's, and while I was never 'into' music, of course I knew all of the famous singers of that time frame, and when one is surrounded by people who are into music, one can't help but know the songs and lyrics (that's my legit excuse btw!!). Sinead always struck me as a deeply religious person, and many of her songs and lyrics displayed that. I vividly remember her anger at the Catholic Church and the infamous incident in the early 90s in which she tore up the Pope's picture on live national television because of the sexual abuses and coverups taking place under his watch. She was always a deep thinker, and so her embracing of Islam is, as she herself realizes, a natural conclusion.
May Allah bless our sister Shuhada and make her a role model for her people, and all of us!
