He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.Stevens' albums Tea for the Tillerman (1970) and Teaser and the Firecat (1971) were both certified triple platinum in the United States by the RIAA. His 1972 album Catch Bull at Four spent three weeks at number one on the Billboard 200, and fifteen weeks at number one in the Australian ARIA Charts. He also earned two ASCAP songwriting awards in consecutive years for "The First Cut Is the Deepest"; the song has been a hit single for four different artists. Some of his other hit songs are "Father and Son", "Wild World", "Peace Train", "Moonshadow", and "Morning Has Broken".In December 1977, Stevens converted to Islam and adopted the name Yusuf Islam the following year. In 1979, he auctioned all his guitars for charity and left his music career to devote himself to educational and philanthropic causes in the Muslim community. He has received several awards for his work in promoting peace in the world, including the 2003 World Award, the 2004 Man of Peace Award, the 2007 Mediterranean Prize for Peace, and two honorary doctorate degrees for services to education and humanitarian relief from universities in the United Kingdom.

#Quote
1Considering that the judges have actually voted for someone who doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, doesn't throw televisions out of hotel rooms and only sleeps with his wife, I'd say it was a very brave decision. And one which was unexpected, and strangely, outrageously rock & roll. [on his induction to rock and roll hall of fame]
2[Would you give Salman Rushdie shelter?] Yes, I'd then phone the Ayatollah Khomeni and tell him where this man is. [Would you go to a demonstration where an effigy would be burnt?] I would hope it was the real thing.
3And if you want to be you, be you./ And if you want to be me, be me./ 'Cos there's a million things to be,/ you know that there are.
#Fact
1Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.
2Abandoned the music business in 1978 and converted to Islam.
3Is a vegetarian.
4Following the 9/11 attacks, he issued a statement "expressing his horror at the attacks on the innocent people of the United States". He also stated that "no right thinking Muslim would ever condone such Acts".
5Refused to license his song "Father and Son" for use in Moulin Rouge! (2001). It was the first musical number in the original script. Because of his current religious beliefs, he objected to the sexual content in the film. The scene featuring "Father and Son" was to have been between Christian and his father in his father's office, with all his father's employees joining in for the chorus. This was to be the segue into his leaving home for Paris. The scene is included in the complete script on the Special Edition DVD.
6Wrote "Sweet Scarlet" for love interest Carly Simon and she wrote "Anticipation" for him.
7On a flight from London on September 21, 2004, he was refused entry to the United States on national security grounds. The flight had already taken off before his name was spotted as being on the American "watch list". The plane was diverted to Bangor, Maine, where he was taken off and returned to London.
8Released in November 1968 after spending three months in hospital recovering from tuberculosis.
9Universally derided in 1989 when he allegedly went on record supporting the Ayatollah Khomeini's death sentence against The Satanic Verses author Salman Rushdie. Stevens's records were burned and taken out of stores, and many radio stations permanently boycotted his music. Nearly a decade later, Stevens claimed he was highly misquoted, that he did not support the Ayatollah's sentence. Rather, he merely reiterated the Koran's teachings about those who "defame the prophet". Stevens says he bears no ill will towards Rushdie, and did not wish for him to be killed.
10Family: Is of Greek Cypriot heritage - his father is Greek, mother is Swedish. Has four daughters and one son.
11Re-recorded hit song "Peace Train" for the collective album "Hope" (April 2003) in support of peace for Iraq.
12Parents are Stavros Georgiou and Ingrid Wickman.
13Changed his name from Stephen Georgiou to Cat Stevens to Yusuf Islam.
14Decided to pursue religion after nearly drowning off the coast of Malibu, California. He converted to Islam after his brother took a trip to Jerusalem.
15Released his first album in 17 years - "Life of the Last Prophet" (1995); It contains 66 minutes of narration about the life of Mohammad plus three traditional Islamic songs.
