SUN EXCLUSIVE: MICHAEL JACKSON has become a Muslim – and changed his name to Mikaeel.

The skint superstar, 50, donned Islamic garb to pledge allegiance to the Koran in a ceremony at a pal's mansion in Los Angeles, The Sun can reveal.

Jacko sat on the floor wearing a tiny hat after an Imam was summoned to officiate – days before the singer is due to appear at London's High Court where he is being sued by an Arab sheik.

A source told last night how Jacko, brought up as a Jehovah's Witness, decided to convert as he used a studio at the home of his chum to record a new album.

The star – whose hits include The Way You Make Me Feel – was spotted looking "a bit down" by a producer and a songwriter who had both embraced Islam.

P.S: Yes it's nonsense. Just like most of the other 'converts to Islam' posts that are flooding the forum.

I think he converted to Islam for belief or he wants to give a hand to muslims instead of good sales record.

Good. I always be glad if anyone converts to islam and Alhamdulelah we used to hear about people who convert to Islam every day but I never heard about a person converts to Jewish religion.

: Yes it's nonsense. Just like most of the other 'converts to Islam' posts that are flooding the forum.

if you consider that nonsense why did you post it?

Maybe you used to post nonsense posts!

Appear at London's High Court where he is being sued by an Arab sheik

Amazingly, the sheik withdrew the case and opted for a "out of court" settlement.

I find it odd

Jackson. agreed to convert on a cup of tea!!
