    Family may opt for Islamic burial for MJ: Report


    The family of Michael Jackson is considering a traditional Muslim burial for the pop icon who had converted to Islam months prior to his death, says a new report.

    X 17 online, a celebrity website reported quoting sources close to the family that Jackson’s new found will states that he will be buried in the traditions of his new faith.

    “The family is considering following the Muslim burial traditions because Michael would have wanted to be laid to rest in keeping with his new-found religious beliefs. Michael’s brother Jermaine is educating the family as to the special rites,” the source said.

    Jacksonhad reportedly converted to Islam in November last year and taken the name of ‘Mikhaail’.

    Meanwhile, a public viewing of the performer will take place on Friday at his fantasy themed abode Californiaranch, Neverland. There has been no official confirmation from Jackson’s family on the location where his body will be laid to rest.

    NDTV adds: Michael Jackson’s memorial will not take place at Neverland, because of a legal issue. The new owners of the ranch were not able to get a clearance in time for the funeral.

    The Jacksonfamily is not sure where it will be now, although the date is thought to remain the same

    MICHAEL JACKSON has become a Muslim - and changed his name to MIKAEEL.

    Published: 21 Nov 2008



    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.

    Ceremony ... pop king Jacko


    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.
    Shahada

    The source said: "They began talking to him about their beliefs, and how they thought they had become better people after they converted. Michael soon began warming to the idea.
    "An Imam was summoned from the mosque and Michael went through the shahada, which is the Muslim declaration of belief." Mikaeel is the name of one of Allah's angels.
    "Jacko rejected an alternative name, Mustafa - meaning "the chosen one".
    Brit singer Yousef Islam, 60 - who was called Cat Stevens until he famously converted - turned up to help Jacko celebrate.

    It was his pals David Wharnsby - a Canadian songwriter - and producer Phillip Bubal who counselled Jacko.
    The pair's new names are Dawud Wharnsby Ali and Idris Phillips.
    Jacko now prays to Mecca after the ceremony at the Hollywood Hills home of Toto keyboard player Steve Porcaro, 51, who composed music on the singer's Thriller album.
    Jacko, who rarely ventures out without a mask, is due to give evidence on Monday in a £4.7million lawsuit brought by Prince Abdulla Al-Khalif of Bahrain.
    The sheik claims he bankrolled the singer's lavish lifestyle in exchange for an exclusive recording contract. The billionaire sent songs for him to record but claims he was blanked.
    He told the court yesterday: "Many times he confirmed to me he would pay me back."
