Michael Jackson has become a Muslim. The singer changed his name to Mikaeel in a ceremony at a friend's Los Angeles home just days before he is due in court. Jackson, 50, is facing allegations of borrowing $9 million from Arab sheikh Abdulla Al-Khalifa and failing to repay the sum by recording two new albums, writing an autobiography and penning a musical.

The cash-strapped star, raised as a Jehovah's Witness, was convinced to turn to Islam by producer Phillip Bubal and songwriter David Wharnsby. A source said: "They began talking to him about their beliefs and how they thought they had become better people after they converted. Michael soon began warming to the idea."

Singer Yousef Islam - formerly known as Cat Stevens before he also converted to the religion - attended the star's declaration of belief, known as the shahada.
