Lindsay Lohan sparked speculations about converting to Islam, when she was seen carrying a leather bound copy of the Holy Quran on her first day of community service. Lindsay has been doing community service as a result of the 2012 reckless driving charge in Los Angeles. According to sources, she has 125 hours to complete by May 28th.
Her spokesperson however contradicted such claims, stating that Lindsay had been showing interest in the Arabic language and culture and that she was not completely at a decision of converting to Islam. She has been studying the Quran during her community service, but to say that she would be converting to Islam are just mere speculations.
Western celebrities converting to Islam have always been a topic of interest. Such news is usually taken positively by the Islamic world who seem to feel proud at such additions to their community. But some fans state that it will be too early to rejoice at the news of Lindsay Lohan converting to Islam, as the copy of Holy Quran in her arms is the one that has been translated by Maulawi Sher Ali and published by the Qadiyani community. So whatever ideals are being formed in Lindsay’s mind are definitely influenced by the Qadiyani community, who have an opposite perspective about the Muslim community.[junkie-alert style=”white”] But some fans state that it will be too early to rejoice at the news of Lindsay Lohan converting to Islam, as the copy of Holy Quran in her arms is the one that has been translated by Maulawi Sher Ali and published by the Qadiyani community.

Lindsay has been in and out of the news in her own peculiar way. She has been struggling through her emotional phases. Her picture was seen on Instagram with a boy named Donovan Illery, whom she met at a previous community service last year. Lindsay stated at the Oprah Winfrey show in 2014, that she had a soft spot for him and she found him to be sweet. Currently she is engaged in an administrative work and she will also have an opportunity to engage with the children.
Lindsay shared her excitement about the job on her recent tweet ‘’ So happy to be finally helping out the kids, just hope that I can make a difference to their lives”
