Barack Obama's Kenyan grandmother has said she prayed for the US president to convert to Islam, according to reports.

Sarah Omar, 88, who was on hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, told the Al-Qatan Saudi daily: "I prayed for my grandson Barack to convert to Islam".

The paper said that Ms Omar was in Saudi Arabia on pilgrimage along with her son, Mr Obama's uncle Saeed Hussein Obama, and four of her grandchildren.

Ms Omar told the newspaper that she could only discuss hajj matters and would not comment on Mr Obama's politics.

BHO is an atheist.

Most atheists hate God and work hard to make everyone think that they don't believe in Him. The infamous atheist Madelyn Marie O'Hare was known to set up a nativity scene in front of the Christmas tree and then, in front of her children, stomp on it until all the figures were broken.

I have a feeling that Obama is self-deistic, atheist masquerading as a sometimes Christian, sometimes muslim. Our God and the muslim's Allah are just a couple of things he has to contend with occasionally.

The man ain't no Muslim. Like all academics elitist, he's either an agnostic or an atheist. Any religious stuff on his part is shear political opportunism.

The pagan ritual called the Hajj is done by men and women they are separated clothing requirements are even more strict then normal.

It would be interesting to see the logistics on how the president or ex president visits the Ka'aba. Only Muslims can enter the area.

Islam was pretty similar when it wasn’t modern, too. More scimitar and less explosive.

“One of the prettiest sounds on earth” is the Muslim call to prayer at sunset. Barack Hussein Obama as quoted by Nicholas D. Kristof in the New York Times - March 6, 2007

No, Barack. One of the prettiest sounds on Earth is the sound of someone giving his life over to Jesus Christ. Too bad you don't know that.
