Doherty turning to Islam in jail
The Sun

Troubled rocker Pete Doherty has reportedly turned to Islam after being imprisoned in London's Wormwood Scrubs jail.

Doherty asked for a translation of the Quran and is now 'lapping it up', reports thesun.co.uk.

One of Doherty's friends said: 'He's been reading the Quran since he went into segregation. He's got a lot of Muslim friends and they've been on at him for ages to study it. Now he's on his own and he's got time on his hands to study it.

'I'm surprised how much it has calmed him down as he was very on the edge inside. He definitely seems more chilled. He's lapping it up and really interested in it. I think it's helping him in there.'

Doherty has been having a difficult time since his 14-week sentence began for violating probation by taking drugs.
 
soo cool , read this yesterday just shows how beautiful Allah's mercy is. Allah guides whom he wills indeed :D tA.
 
:sl:

Interesting read, JazkaAllah Khayr!
May Allah swt continue to guide him and us all..Ameen

قُلۡ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُضِلُّ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَہۡدِىٓ إِلَيۡهِ مَنۡ أَنَابَ
Say: Lo! Allah sendeth whom He will astray, and guideth unto Himself all who turn (unto Him) [Surah Ra'ad]

Do we have a more reliable source that The Sun?

Pete Doherty could certainly do with cleaning up his act a bit!
Question is, will he stay sober??? :X
 
OK, so he's going to abandon music as its sinful.
WHOOOOOOO!! No more awful Babyshambels howling!!

It's a happy day indeed!

LOL
That's pretty much what somebody wrote when Michael Jackson allegedly turned to Islam a while back (I need to google what happened about him since then) ... that wouldn't have been you too, Barney??? :D
 
Nope, not me, but i would take that, and Pete's reversion as a definate sign of a benificent deity stepping in fo the good of his creation. :)
 
^ I'm still unconvinced.
If you check the sources, they all refer back the The Sun, or add the word 'reportedly' to their statement.

If there is hard evidence from a more reliable source, I would be interested to read it. Please post it here. :)

Peace
