"The Daily Telegraph has been told that Mr Litvinenko had converted to Islam.

Akhmed Zakayev, the leading Chechen dissident who lived next door to Mr Litvinenko, said: "He was read to from the Koran the day before he died and had told his wife and family that he wanted to be buried in accordance with Muslim tradition."

i read this aswell. he was also investigating the murder of anna politkovskaya (a critic of russian policies in chechnya) who was shot dead last month.
 
subhanallah, may Allah accept him as a martyr! may Allah grant him the highest abode in jannah, ameen! because he was certainly killed by the enemies of islam,

imagine becoming muslim and then being killed only shortly afterwards without any real time to sin or do wrong?

assalaamu alaykum,

Quite possibly, but there seems no evidence at all that his conversion to Islam, assuming it happened, had anything to do with his death.
 
nah it is not nonsense. but theres a lot more to his death than what meets the eye. the next few days will throw up a lot of new ideas.
 
Alexander was a believer inshallah before his martyrdom.

He is the latest martyr for the jihad in chechnya - the kafirs went after him after he exposed their lies and told the truth about the apartment bombings in 1999 in which 300 russian were killed. Russians blamed imaginary Chechens but Alexander knew who was really behind it.

Russians used the bombings as an excuse to invade chechnya and to start to kill and rape in chechnya again - this brother stood up and told the truth about who was behind the bombings.

He is paid a big price for his bravery and for standing up for an oppressed people. May Allah (swt) accept him as a martyr. Ameen

Given the strategics of this current age (wars by government proxies), explain to me how this comes as any surprize to you?

Litvinenko Converted to Islam at Deathbed

Alexander Litvinenko requested to be buried according to Muslim tradition after converting to Islam on his deathbed, his father said.



Alexander Litvinenko, the former Russian KGB agent murdered by radioactive poisoning in London, requested to be buried according to Muslim tradition after converting to Islam on his deathbed, according to the Times Online.

Walter Litvinenko, Alexander's father, said in a reported interview published today in the Times Online that his son, an Orthodox Christian, made it his last wish as he lay dying in the hospital.

"He said ’I want to be buried according to Muslim tradition’," Walter Litvinenko told Moscow's Kommersant daily, as quoted by Times Online.

“He said I want to be buried according to Islamic tradition. I said okay son. It will be as you wish. We already have one Muslim in our family. The important thing is to believe in the Almighty. God is one,” Mr. Litvinenko, adding that he also believed that Russian President Vladimir Putin was involved in the death of his son.

He also rejected claims that former Russian agents may have been responsible for Litvinenko's death.

"There was an order right from the top to kill my son," Walter Litvinenko said. "I am in no doubt that this was done by members of the Russian secret services, with the permission of Vladimir Putin."

The grieving father added that he would return to Russia after burying his son, although he considered that returning was not without danger, Mosnews reported.

In a statement read out after his death, Alexander Litvinenko accused the Russian president of what would be the Kremlin's first political assassination in the West since the Cold War.

"You may succeed in silencing one man. But a howl of protest from around the world will reverberate, Mr Putin, in your ears for the rest of your life," he said.

But some suggested the death was part of a plot to discredit the Kremlin.

Russian authorities have denied any involvement in this case.

I doubt his father (who happens to be christain) and who was close to his son would lie, so i will take it as a crediable source- i mean theres no reason for his father to lie and not many xtains would make up that they're child was muslim lol.

All i can say is mashallah for him and its forunate that he left this world after having his slate wiped clean.

Funny though, now all these stories are starting to come out of the woodwork saying that he was helping al-qadea amongst other things and bascially trying to taint him as an 'extremist'. Kinda like when Jean Charles Menezies was killed and all this mumbo jumbo about him being a rapist came out (which was unproved), after all that suicde bombing stuff turned out to be false.
