Actress Queenie Padilla After Hajj! Very Emotional :(

Queenie Padilla interviewed after performing hajj in Makkah Saudi Arabia. Queenie Padilla is a daughter of the famous celebrity Robin Padilla who is also a Muslim from Philippines.

MANILA, Philippines -- Actress Queenie Padilla has quit show business for her Muslim religion.

In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Padilla said she finds inner peace and direction in life in Islam.

"Islam is a way of life. When you start to [become a] Muslim, you know [what] your life purpose really is. I am such a sinful person, but Allah invited me to his house. I am so close to him," she said.

Padilla recently performed the Hajj, a pilgrimage to Makkah in Saudi Arabia. She said she has become a totally different person because of Islam.

"When I was in showbiz, I was very unhappy. I was lost and I always felt I never belong. But now that Allah is in my life, Alhamdullilah, La illa illalah, I am so happy and content in my life," she said.

As she enjoys her new life, Padilla said she will not go back to show business.

"Haram kasi sa isang babae ang maging artista kasi lahat ng aura pinapakita mo. Kasi ang babaeng Muslim ay napaka-modest. At ang babae sa Islam ay parang jewel... Actually I already quit [showbiz] like 8 months [ago], since my last appearance on TV," she said.

Padilla thanked her father, action star Robin Padilla, who introduced her to Islam.

"I just want to thank my father for giving me the opportunity to perform Hajj. And I love him so much because without my father, I might not have been a Muslim," she said.

Even Padilla's relatives and friends in Saudi Arabia were inspired by her new image.

As she returns to the country, Padilla said she will carry with her the experiences she had while doing Hajj, adding that she will share these to her fellow Filipinos. -- Report from Charles Tabbu, ABS-CBN News

[fangary22]

beautiful! <3 may Allah bless you and the whole world

[ziabugvi]

@ihatecapitalistpigsX u misunderstood her....she said `m such sinful person yet ALLAH invited me to HIS house`.....that`s a sentiment which every muslim shares who go to perform HAJJ......coz muslims consider it ALLAH`S blessing on them to call them to HIS house at MAKKAH...the sentence is rather out of humility n thanks offering to AL MIGHTY for his blessing.....regards

[ihatecapitalistpigsX]

Wow, she is so beautiful. i don't like that she says she is a such a sinful person; everyone sins. I think the rules are universal, when I was christian, I believed my god would understand my sins and forgive me even if people of my religion didn't, and i hope the same is for Muslims. :)
