Lindsay Lohan Fuels Islamic Conversion Rumors by Quoting Prophet Muhammad
Troubled celebrity Lindsay Lohan fueled rumors she converted to Islam by quoting the Prophet Muhammad on her Instagram account.
“What actions are most excellent? To gladden the heart of human beings, to feed the hungry, to help the afflicted, to lighten the sorrow of the sorrowful, and to remove the sufferings of the injured,” she quoted from the Bukhari, a hadith of Islam.
The caption accompanies a photo of Lohan and a man sitting on the floor. It’s one of five posts the star posted to the social media account since deleting everything and adding a popular Islamic saying as her bio.
Rumors first began to swirl in 2015 when Lohan was spotted holding a Quran. They reignited earlier this year after the social media purge.
“They crucified me for it in America,” she said. “They made me seem like Satan. I was a bad person for holding that Koran … I was so happy to leave [America] and go back to London after that because I felt so unsafe in my own country. If this [Islam] is something that I want to learn, this is my own will.”
