In 1998, Yusuf Islam spoke at a fundraising dinner sponsored by an organization, the Jerusalem Fund for Human Services, that has been identified by the Canadian government as a Hamas front group. He exhorted his hearers to donate to the group in order to “lessen the suffering of our brothers and sisters in Palestine and the Holy Land.” In 2000, he was denied entry into Israel for donating thousands to Hamas. Again, Islam denied it all, saying: “I want to make sure that people are aware that I’ve never knowingly supported any terrorist groups — past, present or future. It’s simply an attempt to cast doubt again on my character and good intentions.”
He publicly supported the Ayatollah Khomeini’s death sentence for blasphemy against Salman Rushdie in 1989 (“The Qur’an makes it clear,” said the author of “Peace Train,” that “if someone defames the Prophet, then he must die”).
There are more examples.
Oh and here's something else for you just in case because you seem to have difficulty reading and thinking:
1) I don't care that he's Muslim. I didn't say anything about that. So don't try and make accusations that are baseless.
2) He didn't win the Nobel peace prize. And by the way terrorists have won the Nobel peace prize, including one who had an old man in a wheelchair pushed off a cruise ship. Just because you came from a country that delights in women being stoned doesn't mean everyone needs to accept this BS.

Was he charged with any of this?
And don't confuse your country of origin with mine. We don't have stoning in my country
