O.J. Simpson wants to convert to Islam — if he can get through the holy month of Ramadan.
Ramadan is the fourth of the five pillars of Islam, and requires Muslims to fast during the hours of daylight. And as any recent photo will attest, food is a big, big part of Simpson’s daily life.
According to the National Enquirer, a source said Simpson sometimes wears the traditional Kufi prayer cap and studies the Koran, but failed to fast during Ramadan.
”He cheated during the day, and bought snacks from the prison canteen,” the source said. “But he’s really serious about converting to Islam. O.J. even made himself a prayer rug for his prison cell.”
