On becoming a Muslim the famous French football manager Philippe Troussier took the name Omar Troussier. Troussier had visited many countries and met a great many people during the course of his life, and started becoming curious about Islam and reading the Qur’an after the events of September 11. Realizing that Islam is a religion of peace and finding the happiness he had sought throughout his life in it, Troussier explains why he took the name of Omar: “Because Omar is the symbol of justice!” The French press regarded Troussier’s conversion to Islam as a great surprise.
