..and we should not take this too serious" says Sheikh Yusuf Estes
Likely someone using a program like Photoshop or some graphics program, it seems a fan of Sheikh Yusuf has come up with this image and may Allah forgive them, ameen.
Although Sheikh Yusuf's name appeared in the 'Top 500 Muslims' in the World' in a recent poll, all of this is not what Sheikh Yusuf wants, nor does he advocate promoting any of the callers to Islam in this way as celebrities.
"The important subject for people to know about is not me, or anyone of us today, it is all about who is Allah and who is His messenger (Muhammad, peace be upon him)" says Sheikh Yusuf.
"It is not appropriate to raise people up and make them celebrities and it would be better to throw sand in the face of those who are trying to exhault you, this is according to a saying of our prophet, peace be upon him.
I will only treat these kinds of things as jokes or false flattery and not something serious.
Please just pray for me and pray for all of us to be rightly guided by Allah - and pray for our TV station opening up next week on World TV, channel 99 and other places..."
Sheikh Yusuf Estes has over 2,200 websites, many videos on the Internet and hundreds of programs on English TV for Muslims around the world.
His story for coming to Islam is known as "Priests and Preachers Enter Islam" and is on his website at www.YusufEstes.com
