Happy Birthday AR Rahman: Kaise AR Rehman Ne Islam Ko Kabul Kiya
AR Rahman, jinhone janm liya tha Chennai mein 6 January 1967 ko, voh ek Hindu parivaar se the jiska gehra sambandh sangeet se tha.
Unka asli naam tha A. S. Dileep Kumar, lekin unka jeevan badal gaya jab unhone apne 23 varsh ke hone par Islam apnaya, apni maa aur behno ke saath, jab unki ek behen gambhir bimari se bahar aayi. Unhone apna naam badal kar rakha Allah Rakha Rahman, jo “dayalu aur dayaalu ek” ka arth hai. Unka kehna tha ki Islam ne unhe shanti, disha, aur jeevan mein santulit hone ka anubhav diya.
