That Togolese footballer, Emmanuel Adebayor converted to Islam is no longer news. The news had gone viral and the Aston Villa bound striker had also confirmed it.
Adebayor has now come out to fully address the issue by giving reasons why he converted to Islam. He justified his new found faith by saying Muslims are like Jesus and also described them as” truer followers of Christ”.
Read below (Source: The Herald):
1. Jesus (pbuh) taught that there is only One God and Only God should be worshipped as taught in Deut 6:4, Mark 12:29. Muslims also believe this as taught in the Qur’an verse 4:171.
2. Jesus (pbuh) didn’t eat pork as taught in Leviticus 11:7 , and neither do Muslims as taught in the Qur’an verse 6:145.
3. Jesus (pbuh) greeted with the words “as salaamu alaikum” (Peace be with you) in John 20:21. Muslims also greet each other this way.
4. Jesus (pbuh) always said “God Willing” (inshallah), Muslims say this too before doing anything as taught in the Qur’an verses 18:23-24.
5. Jesus (pbuh) washed his face, hands, and feet before praying. The Muslims do the same.
6. Jesus (pbuh) and other prophets of the Bible prayed with their head to the ground (see Matthew26:39). Muslims do too as taught in the Qur’an verse 3:43.

Jesus is not married but Adebayo is married. A confused man
I am very imprest for Notting those key words.Adebayor
Christ don’t need the”pbuh” cus he his peace and thats why we christians dont use it
What do they know about life after death,forgiveness , salvation
When i say jesus is in heaven can they say same.
U are a confused bird in the air
Serious. Confused person.
Good points dat make things clear u are great, may Almighty Allah will be wit u. Ameen U Are Welcome 2 Islam.
Welcome Islam my dear brother may Allah be with u amin
very confused human indeed…
he is not a Christian rather a church goer ,he just doing dis 4 cheap popularity. he was never knwn 4 christainity! lolz cheap publicity indeed.
what pain me most when people say things without prof. Here is adebayo giving references to both quran n bible. And u all are caling him a confused. WHO IS NOW CONFUSED
Adebayo is confused I wonder if he knows right from left….just tell him that xtianity exist 560 or so yrs before birth of Mohammed. All what is in the bible is the pirated copy in quran.
The God that have shown u the way will never lead u astray anymore bro. Adebayor
Adeboyo don’t deciv urself ok!! Tel us ur real qualms we ll understand….if all what u quoted by Jesus in d quran are correct then why do u run after those that never beliv wat he brot lik peace,salvation,eternity,forgiveness, love etc? Alaye u re a confused man frm hme Adebayo
hmmmm…..don’t let Adebayour or whatever cause any prb between each other…all I kw is that God knw everyfn and dere s no two God except ONE…all d best for Adebayour.
Let me remind the said Emmanuel Adebayor that Jesus was not a Muslim. If you became a Muslim to be a follower of Jesus, be duly reminded that there is no Muslim on earth whose way of life is interndem with the teaching of Jesus. Jesus himself said, “I’m the way, the truth & the life, no one can come to the Father except through me (John 14:6),” but Muslims don’t believe that. Muslims don’t believe that Jesus is the son of God. They don’t beieve in the finished work of grace on the cross of calvary. Jesus died to free us from the power of sin but Muslims believe you can be a sinner & still make paradise if your good works are more than your bad works. This is a confusion in itself that undermines the purpose of creation & the integrity of God.The fact is that there is no Muslim that has salvation because Islam is a denouncement of the teachings of Jesus.
All adebayo said about Christ is true but he left many more unmentioned. Jesus Christ came to give us life in abundance and in addition to what adebayo quoted, He also told us that He is way, the truth and salvation and no one goes to the Father except through the son. what usually baffles me is when some people turn simple login on its head. which one is correct, the reference material or the material citing the reference? If the gospel of Christ is being rejected by anyone, that person automatically loses the right to refer to Christ words to form the basis of their faith.
Kudos to you just know what you are doing. May God leads us through
My dear SEA congratulations to you may ALLAH bless you.You are welcome in ISLAM,may the LORD give you all you want.Proud to be Muslim and proud to be Togolese

SirMichael Excellence okay bro thanks for ur explanation
Nigerians like dwelling on religion to divide them. Ah!! Yesterday it was buharis wife giving someone a handshake and today it’s a footballer “dumping” one religion for another. Smh. Can’t u people just focus on growth and prosperity and forget about religious divisions?
I lost my respect
Please I don’t comment on dirty posts
He’s an antichrist member….dat’s whr he belong,he knws what he’s doin,he’s nt a f00l…d real true abt him has jst be manifest,he was jst a pretender in christianity
U are the biggest fool ever christ do not need people like u for u are doomed
usless reasons, you are a confussionist, sorry na ur surname
He was never a christian. Being a christian is not by name, you may even be going to church and still not be a christian.
No never….but is it in ur quran dat all Christians will become Muslim…go back nd read ur quran well nd understand it..before u utter any words
Hmmm….don’t lets us be sinned against God..
it has always been Sheikh/Ustas who know Islam so deep make their way to Christianity after deep research of the Koran and Holy Bible and compering the two and discovered the light and darkness. not somebody like Adebayo who don’t know how to say a common Christian prayer
What i knew is dat Jesus Christ is d way,d truth, nd d life…
Does DT add to ur bank Alc…its nt abt leaving one religion for d oda. D fact is d life u r living here on earth does it pls God…killing innocent souls is it d rit tin to do as a Muslim…? Wateva we do on earth now wil b used against us on d judgement day…all we nid do is live a gud life and practice wat we preach and nt d oda way round..
So don’t lets us insult any religion
I care less about your reasons, just do what’s right
U no see how him de prosper?…..as e stands now him no get club….going down down down…..4 asenal to mancity…..4rm mancity 2 real madrid……4rm real madrid 2 tothenham…..4rm tothenham 2 crystal palace….4rm here him go enta mali go play….. nonsense…..
He is now without a club but training with a local club in Togo.
Please stop calling Christian…Xtian…. Are you ashame to call the name In full?
What’s d difference btw Christianity and pampers? … They all don’t have laws of thier own
It is just a simple arithmetic, comparing his success when he was a Christian to now as a Muslim shows that he has fallen completely out of the track of favour. Even tyson did the same after then how is his condition till date?
I didn’t try bro..
I swear the Christians are blind… For jesus will decline u all… For worshipping him
Compare his life as a Christian and now you will realise he has failed totally.
Thanks my dear you nailed it.
mind u guys no matter d religion, where u come from we are one,
The reason why he said he dump Christianity is because he a place he worship idol, in Christianity you can’t serve God with pure heart and serve idol, but in other religion’s you can whatsoever and serve idol, I don’t blem him is our so called compromise man of God who supposed to be preaching salvation, holiness, repentance, and the love of God, they went about preaching prosperity for their pocket, eating with the devil’s in the name of fame, men and brethren it’s well with us, soon or later rapture will take place, how prepared are you………..?
Yes brother you are right.
who cares? its an individual race n on d last day each an evry one wil giv acct of hw he or she lived regardless of dier reasons
It is because u don’t have direction in ur life that why you don’t know the difference
Abdulsalam Umar at least it’s not an offence punishable with death to leave my religion. If he had converted from Islam to Christianity, you would’ve been hearing “kill him”, “behead him”, etc.
Muhammad Muhammad J wish every muslim had this your view, the world would have been a better place. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.
What makes you a Christian is first you accepting Christ as your lord and Savior, secondly, you forsaking your old life and living the new life in Christ Jesus by living what is called the Christ like life and no more to be conformed to the ways of the world which was your old life like living in sin (fornication, lies, stealing, killing, jealousy, envy, strive, bearing false witness etc) and beginning to live a life of righteousness in Christ Jesus. Anything other than this…. You are nothing but a church goer.
Yes… Was just a church goer.
Pls…this is not d matter of insulting Christians….just say it as in d verse dat its was written dat all Christians will become Muslim…
Just tell us
And point of correction we didn’t worship Jesus…we re worshiping God through our lord Jesus Christ
Is dat clear?
Correct ma’am, well said
Yabaleft abeg GIMME MORE!!
I nid to laugh again!
He has no excuse he doesn’t believe in who he is serving
He is a fool
