That is not true. Of course a person needs to have knowledge to be a Muslim! Your statement could only possible apply to a person who has absolutely no knowledge of Islam other than "There is no God but Allah and that Muhammad pbuh is His messenger".

I honestly do not understand how anyone could become a Muslim without at least knowing the five pillars of Islam, and knowing that they are obligatory.

True, to become a Muslim all you need to do is say the shahadah, while fulfilling its conditions (one of which is knowledge), it isn't like the person needs to undergo some kind of amazing challenge such as swim across a river or something... from that perspective, become a Muslim is easy, at least in the sense that we can't tell that person 'no we do not believe you, you are a non-muslim', unless we have some good reason to not believe him/her.

i know this, but i think people often think it is like a magic pill and when they find out that work is required and they have just begun, they jump ship. just a theory about why some people revert and then leave right away. in this case it sounds like the guy just wanted some fame (tho i can't watch videos).

no, just going by what i read here and there.
well, maybe my theory is um.....theoretical?
another brilliant theory down the drain. not the first.
:hiding:

I honestly can't imagine someone converting to any religion, sincerely, with out knowing something about it...
