MADINA (July 2, 2010) - Former US heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson ("Malik Abdul Aziz" after converting to Islam), who is on a visit to the Kingdom to perform Umrah, Sunday prayed at the Quba' and Qiblatain mosques. He also visited the Islamic University and met the university's president, Dr. Muhammad Al-Oqla, and American nationals studying there.
Tyson was mobbed whereever he went. Large numbers of fans gathered around the hotel where he is staying near the Prophet's Mosque. Some people waited for hours just to see him and take his pictures.
Tyson had to scurry toward the Prophet's Mosque for Dhuhr prayers as fans gathered around him in large numbers. He used the Shimagh of one of his companions to cover his head but the fans recognized him and followed him.
"I am happy that I have fans who love me here in the Kingdom, but I hope they leave me alone to enjoy my spiritual moments at the Holy Sites," he said.
"I couldn't resist shedding tears when I came to know that I was in one of the gardens of paradise," Tyson said referring to Arrawda in the Prophet's Mosque.
Tyson was accompanied by Shahzad Muhammad, head of the Canadian Dawah Association, which organized his visit to Saudi Arabia.
"Tyson became emotional when offering Salam to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)," said Shahzad. "He cried for more than half an hour while standing in front of the Prophet's grave, raising his hands."
"He remained in front of the Rawdah for hours praying, reciting the Qur'an and making supplications," Shahzad said.
Later Mike Tyson went to the Meqat to change into Ihram for Umrah.

Trying To Build Society based on Peace and Justice
The one who love Imam e zaman(a.t.f.s) must be prepared to struggle and
labour his self, his pen and his wealth in the way of Imam e
zaman(a.t.f.s)
I remember the words of Imam (a.s), that we are responsible for the
duty, and not for the result. A warm smile washes away the tension of
confusion, as I thank Allah for the presence of my friend, whom Allah
may protect, and guide
IMAM E ZAMANA (a.f.t.s) Bless you And All Your Family those help others
and learn islam.
Syed Mohamad Masoom Abidi
