Peace brothers and sisters,
Just a question for those who might know...
When, where, and why did the process of becoming Muslim include adopting an Arab name? (eg. Lou Al Cinder(sp.) = Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Cassius Clay = Muhammad Ali, Cat Stevens = Yusuf Islam, etc.)
Was this just part of the agenda of "arabicizing" all Muslims?
Peace,
Tay
