Why I converted from Islam to Christianity – Singer, Khaid

Sulaimon Shekoni Solomon, better known as Khaid, a sensational vocalist, has told why he switched from Islam to Christianity.


The 19-year-old stated that he was born to a Muslim father and a Christian mother and grew up attending mosque.

He stated that he eventually converted to Christianity because he disliked going to mosques, and that his father compelled him to do so when he was younger.

Khaid was interviewed during a recent episode of the Zero Conditions podcast.

“I was a Muslim before because my father was a Muslim and my mother was a Christian,” he explained. So I just felt a stronger connection to Christianity.

“I didn’t like going to the mosque from the beginning. My father coerced me. My parents, on the other hand, were free thinkers.

They told my siblings and I that we can choose any religion we want. But we live among Muslims and my dad doesn’t want it to seem like he doesn’t have control over his children so he used to force me to go to the mosque.

“At that time I was trying to please him so I was going to mosque. But after some time, I switched and started going to church.

“My elder sister and younger brother are Muslims. But me and the rest of the five are Christians.”
