No, this is a common internet myth, but there is no evidence to support it. He has a Muslim name that he was given by his biological father, but his father was not a practicing Muslim by the time Barack was born, and he was never raised in the Muslim faith. He was raised by a non-practicing Christian mom, and later by his Protestant Christian maternal grandparents.
Contrary to internet myths, Barack Obama was not raised Muslim, nor did he ever practice that religion. His biological father was born a Muslim but had long since left the religion and become an atheist by the time Barack Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961. Mostly, Mr. Obama was raised by his mother, a non-practicing Protestant Christian, and his maternal grandparents, who were either Methodists or Unitarians (sources differ on which denomination)-- but his grandparents were in fact Christians, and that is what he was taught to follow. Mr. Obama did go through a period of religious doubt, but he returned to Christianity and was married in a Protestant church; further, he and his wife have raised their daughters as Protestants. If you are asking whether he is an evangelical or a conservative Christian, he does not seem to be; but he definitely does believe in Jesus Christ.
No. Barack Obama was born in the United States, and not the Planet Krypton.
President Barack Obama is 6' 1½" (1.87 meters) tall.
The 44th President of the United States, President Barack Obama, II, was born on Friday, August 4, 1961 at 7:24 PM in Hawaii to Barack Obama, Sr. and Ann Dunham Obama. He is a natural born US citizen.
In 2006, US Rep Keith Ellison (Minnosata's 5th district), a Muslim, was swon in on the Koran. Contrary to popular Internet lore, Barak Obama, a christian, was swon in using the Bible.

No, there was no truth to the claim that President Obama had a Muslim prayer curtain in the White House.
He (Barack Obama) is NOT Muslim. He is Christian.
The only person who really knows why so many Christians are on President Obama's enemies list is President Obama himself. Many people believe that Mr. Obama has a profound Muslim influence and favors the Muslim faith.
No. President Obama does not profess to be a Muslim nor does he follow Muslim practices. His father was raised as a Muslim , as was his Indonesian step-fathers, but Barack Obama was not raised as a Muslim and after he became an adult, he and his wife joined a Christian denomination (United Church of Christ) in Chicago.
Not at all. Barack Hussein Obama is not Muslim; he inherited his father's Muslim name because it was in his father's family. But President Obama was raised by his Christian grandparents and today is a practicing Christian.
Actually, neither was a Muslim. President Obama's father was born a Muslim but stopped practicing it and became an atheist. His mother was born a Christian but was not very religious.
The president has never said in any book that he is a Muslim, nor has he said it in any interview. Contrary to internet myths, Mr. Obama is not a Muslim; he is a Christian. But in his book "Dreams from my Father," he talked about his father's life-- his father was born a Muslim but left that religion and became an atheist. By the time President Obama was born, his father had no religion at all.
Barack Obama Sr.If you meant Obama Jr. as 'before he became a Muslim,' he was never actually Muslim. His African father was. President Obama was born Barack Hussein Obama.
