Almost every major element of the Qur'anic story can be found in Christian and Jewish folklore that dates hundreds of years prior to the time of Prophet Muhammad. Most early Muslim commentators and scholars identified Dhul-Qarnayn as Alexander the Great, and some modern ones do too. Historical and Archaeological evidence has revealed that the real Alexander was a polytheistic pagan who believed he was the literal son of Greek and Egyptian gods.
The theory that Dhul-Qarnayn is Cyrus the Great has little evidence in its favor compared to the overwhelming evidence that the story is actually based on a legendary version of Alexander.
Today, there is no giant wall of iron and brass between two mountains that is holding back a tribe of people; it likely never existed.([[Dhul-Qarnayn and the Alexander Romance|''read more'']])}}</option>

The source given for this information was usually the New York Post article, however the original source is a notorious tabloid in the UK called "The Sun".

This article refutes all of the proofs that have been offered in support of Michael Jackson's alleged conversion to Islam, thus they must be discarded when researching the claim further. Once this has been done, we are left with nothing. There is absolutely no evidence that Michael Jackson converted to Islam; be it Nation of Islam or otherwise. (read more)
