I doubt it. I know Aaron and have never seen him mention that he is NOI. Pretty sure he is Southern Baptist.

So I kind of doubt the rest of it as well.

Michael Jordan sent his kids to Catholic high school and was married in an Episcopal church not too long ago.

I doubt if he is a Muslim. If he is, he isn’t very devote.

According to Wikipedia, Michael Jordan sent his kids to a private Episcopal school, and was married to his present wife in an Episcopal church in 2013. Bo Jackson's wife is a clinical psychologist and all their kids have English names; likewise Mays' family all have English names. Jackie Robinson's funeral was at Riverside Church, NY. Reggie Jackson turned to "49ers head coach and ordained minister Mike Singletary for spiritual guidance." Neither Wikipedia nor this NYT article about Hank Aaron makes any mention of "muslim" or "Islam."

Also, this article lists none of them:
Why Aren't There More Muslims in Baseball?
