Fascinated by the voice of the Adhan, an Irish actor wants to convert to Islam

Irish film actor Liam Neeson is considering converting to Islam after being fascinated by Islam while filming in Turkey. The film star grew up as a devout Catholic. However, while he was in Istanbul shooting a film, he felt shaky when he heard the call to prayer which took place five times a day.

"The call to prayer occurs five times a day and for the first week it can drive you crazy, then it goes into your soul and it becomes the most beautiful thing," he said. "There are 4.000 mosques in the city of Istanbul. Some are amazing and it really made me think about becoming a Muslim, ”added the nominee for an Oscar, BAFTA and three Golden Globe Awards.

Neeson admits that he has been confused about religion. “I was raised a Catholic, but I think every day we ask ourselves, unconsciously, what are we doing on this planet? What's all this about? " (Mel / Contactmusic.com / ddhongkong.org). *
