Newcastle Muslim Senegalese football player, Papiss Cisse refuses to wear shirt sponsored by loan firm Wonga but GAMBLES in casino.

A picture has emerged apparently showing Muslim footballer Papiss Cisse at a casino table. 
It comes as the Newcastle striker is at loggerheads with the club over their decision to replace old sponsor Virgin Money with pay-day loan company Wonga. 

Cisse, who is one of a number of Muslim players at Newcastle, has told the hierarchy at the club that he is unwilling to wear the shirt as it conflicts with his religious beliefs.

But an image has emerged on Twitter that claims to show the Senegalese forward gambling in a casino. As well as the lending of money, gambling is not permissible in Islam.

It's okay to gamble but wrong to wear the shirt of a sponsor of your team because they are gamblers and you are not, despite the fact that you take their money as salaries and though you regularly gamble?
