Why I would convert to Islam Before I begin my paper, I would like to confess that my idea of Islam was based on stereotypes portrayed by the American media. I was fortunate enough to have gone to school and build friendships with Muslim Brothers from Yemen, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Through my relationships with them, I learned that they were not much different than myself. However, I was unable to take the time to talk to them about their religion.
