Tony Blair's sister-in-law has converted to Islam
Guardian: Tony Blair's sister-in-law has converted to Islam after having what she describes as a "holy experience" during a visit to Iran.
Journalist and broadcaster Lauren Booth, 43 – Cherie Blair's sister – now wears a hijab whenever she leaves her home, prays five times a day and visits her local mosque whenever she can.
She decided to become a Muslim six weeks ago after visiting the shrine of Fatima al-Masumeh in the city of Qom.
"It was a Tuesday evening and I sat down and felt this shot of spiritual morphine, just absolute bliss and joy," she said in an interview today.
When she returned to Britain, she decided to convert immediately.
Booth – who works for Press TV, the English-language Iranian news channel – has stopped eating pork and reads the Qur'an every day. She is currently on page 60.
Booth has stopped drinking alcohol and says she has not wanted to drink since converting.
Before her spiritual awakening in Iran, she had been "sympathetic" to Islam and has spent considerable time working in Palestine, she said, adding that she hoped her conversion would help Blair change his presumptions about Islam.
where are you O Muslims?!!
she is our sister and Palestine is our broken heart.
we will free Palestine and all of our palestinian sisters and brothers. enshaallah

Iranians condemn Qur'an desecration
PressTV:Thousands of Iranians have taken to the streets to condemn desecration of the Holy Qur'an by extremists in the US on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
The protesters, who gather at Palestine Square in Tehran and other Iranian cities, shouted slogans accusing the United States and Israel of "orchestrating the Zionist plot."
They denounced a move by a number of adventurists who tore pages of the Holy Qur'an and set them on fire.
The angry demonstrators called on the believers of other divine religions to not turn a blind eye to such blasphemous action and take a clear stance on the case.
The protesters held signs calling on Christians and Jews to assure the Muslims and non-Muslims that such a blasphemy would not happen again.
Iran's bazaars have also been closed in protest at the sacrilegious move.
Prior to the ninth anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks, an extremist Florida pastor, Terry Jones, announced plans to burn the Holy Qur'an.
Although under international pressure and global condemnation he called off his plan, some anti-Islam extremists burned pages of the holy book, while others tore pages of it.
US officials including President Barack Obama had earlier warned against the move; however, they failed to take action to prevent the desecration or bring those behind the move to justice.
The insulting move has triggered angry protests across the world, particularly in Muslim states.

Pakistan under Water
TheMuslim: Nations chief Ban Ki-moon said from Pakistan that the flood disaster is the worst he’s ever seen, characterizing the destruction as more dire than that caused by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami and the 2005 Pakistani earthquake. Ban urged the international community to send more relief funds to the area; the country now has just $93 million of the estimated immediate $460 million needed to provide flood relief.
One-fifth of Pakistan is still under water after three weeks of devastating flooding, and as many as 6 million affected people have not yet received any relief, Pakistan’s National Disaster Management Authority told CNN.
About one in 10 Pakistanis — 20 million people altogether — have been affected by the flooding, according to estimates from the Pakistani government. About 1,500 people are feared dead, and at least 2 million are homeless, according to U.N. estimates. The country's most populous province, Punjab, was also one of the worst-hit areas. Relief agencies and the government are still tallying damage to millions of acres of farms.
Now, experts worry about disease spreading. Up to 3.5 million children are at risk for dysentery and other diseases caused by drinking dirty water, warned the United Nations. The U.N. is also worried that a cholera epidemic could spread, as a few cases have already been detected and many villages have no health care.
