The First Muslim to ever win Miss USA competition, Rima Fakih has opened up on her conversion from Islam to Christianity.
Rima Fakih was crowned in 2010 as the winner of the year’s Miss USA.
The ex-beauty Queen converted last month in preparation for her marriage in Lebanon which is scheduled to hold next week.
Describing herself to news site Albawaba, the ex-beauty Queen said: “I’d like to say I’m American first, and I am an Arab-American, I am Lebanese-American, and I am Muslim-American.”
She continued: “When I went to the University of Michigan, because there’s more of a Muslim community, my dad wanted me to learn more about Islam,”
“I didn’t know much about Ramadan and other holidays, and my dad wanted me to take that opportunity and learn.”
Where is the story in this?
This is just stupid shoddy journalism.the title of the article isn’t even vaguely reflected within it. How can you be taken seriously if titles are just bait to ensure website traffic. It’s disappointing
You should take this article down
Was this news edited at all or are you guys out to insult our intelligence?
Her dad wanted her to learn about Islam. Like julius Caesar (Veni, vidi, vici) she listened she learned she understood the truth about Islam. She learned is a religion of HATE and DESPAIR. It is a religion that is devoid of HOPE of a better life (unless you kill yourself as a martyr and only men can be martyrs if you are stupid enough to believe such nonsense.) .It is a religion that is ruled by imams and other clerics who control their flock by FEAR by threatening death, beatings stoning hanging beheading amputating. She learned that Islam is a religion demands obedience and all people are ruled by the laws of the Koran, that Muslim people have NO FREE WILL to think as independent beings. Christianity is based on one word LOVE. Love of family, love of neighbors, love of enemies because they know that their god loves them. unconditionally. LOVE is the reason for her change..
Obviously it was a religion they didn’t practice and learned nothing about.
Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
John 8:32
Based on the articles I’ve read, both she and her family seem like they were MINOs (Muslims in name ONLY).
She didn’t know anything about Ramadan, they went to church every Sunday, had a Christmas tree and celebrated some Muslim holidays.
WTH??
