Rising teenage TikTok star Peller recently opened up about his decision to convert from Islam to Christianity, attributing the life-changing choice to a painful experience during his childhood.

During a live session with fans, one viewer referred to Peller as a Muslim—prompting an unexpected and candid response from the content creator.

“I’m not a Muslim. I go to church,” he clarified.

Peller went on to share that he was once enrolled in a Quranic school as a child. However, rather than being a place of learning and spiritual development, it became a source of trauma for him.

He recounted being subjected to harsh physical punishment, an experience that left a deep emotional impact.

“I was beaten severely when I was young at the Quranic school. That’s why I stopped going,” he said.

According to Peller, this early experience played a significant role in shaping his spiritual path and ultimately led him to embrace Christianity.

His revelation comes shortly after news of his engagement surfaced online, with his girlfriend confirming their relationship status.
