Sean Stone, son of famed director Oliver Stone, is now a Muslim.
According to the Agence France-Presse, the 27-year-old filmmakerconverted to Islam while working on a documentary in Iran.
According to the Tehran Times, which relays a report from the Fars News Agency, Stone on Tuesday recited shahada, the Muslim profession of faith that is the first pillar of Islam, at a Shia cleric’s office.
According to Al-Basheer magazine, the shahada creed translates to English as “I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger.”
But Stone maintained that his acceptance of Islam should not be seen as a renunciation of other faiths.
“The conversion to Islam is not abandoning Christianity or Judaism, which I was born with,” >>>
