Topic: Yusuf Islam

Author Salman Rushdie expressed outrage over Yusuf Islam (formerly Cat Stevens) performing at Jon Stewart's "Rally to Restore Sanity." The conflict stems from Islam's 1989 comments supporting the fatwa against Rushdie for his book, *The Satanic Verses*. The hosts revisit the history of Cat Stevens' conversion to Islam in the late 1970s and his subsequent departure from the music industry before his recent return.
