He was an amazing writer and performer, whose music meant a lot to me. Knowing he joined that death cult makes it hard to enjoy the music for what is it. I mean, he defended the fatwa against Salman Rushdie. What kind of artist would do that? His brother got him into it. I guess if nominal Christians had lived a better example, he might not have apostatized. By the way, the story of Islam’s “satanic verses” is an interesting one. The queeran was supposedly dictated by God, but contained verses that Muhammad (piss be upon him) misheard via “satanic suggestion” and which – after several decades – had to be excised, lest people figure out that the whole Queeran had been satanic suggestion.
Still, great song.

Cat Stevens, AKA Yusuf Islam
Convert to Islam in 1978
The Muslim world has to develop its own sense of confidence and ambition, Yusuf Islam, world-famous musician, lyricist and educator, said on Thursday.
“It is hard to find a Muslim country producing its own airplanes, cars or televisions,” said Islam, also known as Cat Stevens, speaking at the World Halal Summit 2018 in Istanbul.
“The Muslim Ummah had lost its role as a global teacher of this brilliant message [Quran],” he added.
He said Muslim countries were dominated by thoughts that were alien to the philosophy of Islam.
“So many schools today are teaching brilliant things, technologies […] but where is God, where is Allah,” he said.
And after he joined the cult of death his career was lost too. Islam is the religion of barbarians, nothing good have ever come out of it, human wise or product wise. It never will either. Many of these people have retard level IQ’s and are horribly inbred. Nothing great can or will come of that.
Amen, brother.

What an ignorant fuck “Yusuf Islam” is.
