Interview with rap artist turned Muslim

A growing number of rap artists are leaving the bad boy hip hop lifestyle for a more spiritual one.

The Canadian Dawah Association says that an increasing number of rappers this year have embraced Islam or acknowledged they had in the past.

Amir Junaid Muhadith, better known by his stage name, Loon, talks to The Deen Show about his spiritual journey.

Amir Junaid Muhadith (born Chauncey Lamont Hawkins, June 20, 1975) better known by his stage name Loon, formerly an African-American rapper who was part of P. Diddy's Bad Boy Records. Amir (Loon) accepted Islam in Dec. 2008 whilst on tour in Dubai, UAE. His inspiring story of rising up from the ghettos of Harlem, NY to street-hustling and later making it in to the rap game and eventually realising the truth of Islam and becoming Muslim, is quite a story. Amir never attained true personal fulfilment despite enjoying the pinnacle of material life (wealth, success and fame), no matter how hard he strove, he couldnt attain that inner peace that can only be realised by submitting to ones Lord, living for the hereafter and not the present life, the complete contentment of believing in, worshipping and supplicating to the Lord of the worlds, practising the beautiful religion of Islam.

@movva4u1 He was not just a man, he was and is the son of God who now sits at the right hand of the father. He came to lead the way and this is why he prayed. He was both God and man . . He is who we are to pray THROUGH when speaking to the father. The acceptance of his shed blood on the cross is our entrance to the courts of God the father.

@JustThaTruth my brother whta you say is right..but just check what you said Jesus is the "MAN"..he was juts a man..he in his life told people not to pray to him...there is evidence in bible that he use to pray..why does GOD have to pray...

[IslamMisunderstood]

Allah is the Almighty, the All Knowing, the All Hearing, the All seeing, every thing that is in the universe needs Allah to exist, but Allah does not need ANYTHING to exist. This is true definition of the creator of the heavens and the earth. Jesus was a prophet, an amazing prophet whom Allah sent to preach the oneness of Allah, jesus ate, slept, drank, was circumsized, and thats okay, because he was HUMAN NOT GOD. Wake up christian brothers, see the truth, clear your mind of all the questions.
