    Different thing.

    5 Percenters was created in Harlem in the 60s. Their core beliefs don't really match those of Islam. People confuse them cause they say "Allah", but most of Islam rejects them.

    Nation of Islam and Islam itself have 2 completely different theories...so no, they are not the same.

    Sunni and Shiite aren't even the same, very different beliefs. Sunni's follow Muhammeds (pbuh) way while Shiite's follow Ali (pbuh).

    Naw, most of them started off as 5 per centers but later converted to traditional Islam.

    The funny thing is many Catholics (at least from the Mexican community) don't really consider themselves 'Christian' either. They consider it an entirely different religion for some reason.

    Isn't Nas more Christian ... he references Christ quite often in many of his lyrics ... I think I recall a video of him rocking a cross piece, no?

    Not to sound cocky, but I knew 25 of the 32 people listed in OP's post were Muslims. Only ones I didn't know about were:
    Robin Van Persie
    Nicholas Anelka
    Frank Ribery
    Both Kolo Toure and Yaya Toure
    Thierry Henry
    Rima Fakih (Miss USA 2010)
