Youssou N'Dour
  • Islam is a peaceful religion.

  • I'm a modern Muslim. I pray, and if I have a question, I ask someone who is more educated in the religion than me.

  • I think that Sufism fits all over the world. The concept is not anything that fits standard Western ideas - it's always related to culture, to music, to religion. It is a dominant religion in Senegal.

  • I respect music, I do. I love it.

  • My father used to tell me about how musicians don't have respect from people and he was afraid about my future.
