As media outlets have reported, Jermaine Jackson had the following farewell message to his late brother, Michael Jackson: "May Allah be with you always." Watch for yourself here.
But strangely, the NY Times omits the "Allah" reference altogether and instead reports that Jermaine said, "May our love be with you always."

Geez was it a misprint?
Surely, even the Slimes wouldn’t do something so blatant.
More like a mishear. “May our love” and “May Allah” both sound similar. I wonder who is correct, the NYT or this guy.
Watch for yourself on the YouTube link provided. It was clearly “Allah.”
In the video it sounds a lot like “our love”. Will the Times correct their error?
So the alleged pedophile was an alleged muzzy. What an alleged guy!
Amidst thousands of reprints, there are three unique articles which cite Allah, and only the NYT which cites Our Love. I guess NYT got it wrong, but I’d chalk it up to poor hearing, not a conspiracy.
From Wikipedia:
Jermaine LaJaune Jackson (now called Muhammad Abdul-Aziz;[1] born December 11, 1954), is an American Grammy Award-nominated singer, bass guitarist, former member of The Jackson 5 and older brother of American pop stars Janet Jackson and the late Michael Jackson.
Who knew?
Especially if they are talking in ebonics.
Michael Jackson has reportedly become a Muslim and changed his name to Mikaeel.
Michael Jackson 'converts to Islam and changes name to Mikaeel' (21 Nov 2008)
Anyone surprised? We are heading down the same path the UK ended up. Sharia law up next for certain animals on the farm. The stage is set to jam anything the liberals want down the rest of our throats and we shall like it.
It’s legit. The NY Post covered Jackson’s conversion to Islam also:

The Nation of Islam provided security for MJ. I noticed it during his pedophile trial.
Hell, I think he was a freak!
He’s a real world version of Darth Vader. The physical part of him died long ago.
allah was said very clearly. Intentional.
Jermaine is not germane. I am waiting for the word from Tito :)
I doubt it was intentional in this particular instance. Can’t see that anything was to be gained or lost by misquoting what was said.
If Jackson had converted to Islam, then what Jermaine Jackson said would have been appropriate as it relates to Michael Jackson’s beliefs.
