Left-wing activist and former Black Lives Matter lobbyist Shaun King chose the first night of Ramadan to publicly reveal his embrace of Islam, with supporters exclaiming “Allahu Akbar” at the news.
On his Telegram account, King shared a video of himself and his wife reciting the Shahada, the Islamic creed that “there is only God, and that Muhammad is his final messenger.” The caption on the video contained a message that he will be fasting in solidarity with “my dearest friends in Gaza”:
Good evening, everyone in America and good morning to the rest of the world.
My wife and I just got home from evening prayers at our home mosque in Dallas, Texas.
Together, we took Shahada and converted to Islam to start off Ramadan. It was a beautiful, powerful, meaningful day for us that we will never forget.
I will be praying for you, and I ask that you please continue praying for us.
We will begin fasting in the morning with over 1 billion Muslims around the world.
My heart is with my dearest friends in Gaza and I’m proud that we were able to provide meals tonight to thousands and thousands of families from the North to the South in Gaza and will do so every day of Ramadan.
I will be sharing much more with you tomorrow.
Love you all,
Shaun
