Today approximately ⅕ of the world’s population is Muslim. Only about ¼ of this group live in the Middle East, however Arabic is still the language of the Qur'an even if it is not the native language of all Muslims.
Some famous people have converted to Islam, including Muhammad Ali, a famous boxer formerly known as Cassius Clay and Cat Stevens, a famous singer.
