Lindsay Lohan caused a buzz last night when she changed her bio to the Arabic phrase “Alaikum salam” (Peace be unto you). This had people thinking whether she’d converted to Islam.
Last December, Lindsay flew to Dubai for a “period of renewal.” She also wiped her Instagram clean to take a break from social media. With the new bio, some netizens have concluded that she may have converted to Islam during her stay. Likewise, Muslims also welcomed her to the religion.

This is also supported by Lindsay’s interest in the religion, the Arabic language, and how she was spotted carrying a Quran in 2015. “In America I was going through a lot with past things that had happened to me over a 10-year span, and my very close friends who have been there for me a lot in London are Saudi, and they gave me [the] Quran and I brought it to New York because I was learning, and it opened doors for me to experience spiritually, to find another true meaning,” she says in an interview with Habertürk TV.
However, a source tells Us Weekly that Lindsay has not converted to Islam. Mom Dina Lohan echoed this, saying that she’s just on a social media hiatus.
Lindsay has kept a low-profile after her controversial breakup with ex-fiancé Egor Tarabasov. Aside from the occasional interviews and paparazzi shots, she’s also cooked with Jamie Oliver for his new show.
Nonetheless, we do wish LiLo the best in whatever path she chooses.
