He is now called Yusaf Islam he converted to Islam in the late 1970`s. I remember seeing him being interviewed on TV in late 2005, he said he was going to return to a musical career again. I think he has made a couple of albums since then.

Cat Stevens is best known composer of "Father and Son" which later revived by the Original boy band BOYZONE.
Also composed "The first cut is the deepest" revived by Sheryl Crow.
Two of my favorites in his compositions are MORNING HAS BROKEN and WILD WORLD.
Oh... baby baby it's a wild world... (singing... and loving it!)

He's not called Cat Stevens anymore... Stevens became a convert to Islam in 1977 and in 1978 adopted the name Yusuf Islam, leaving his music career to devote himself to educational and philanthropic causes in the Muslim community
. A decade later, controversy arose when he was reported to have made comments that seemed to support a fatwa calling for the death of author Salman Rushdie, but later stated that he had been misinterpreted. He publicly and vehemently condemned the September 11 attacks and 7 July 2005 London bombings, saying they were not consistent with the teachings of the religion of Islam, and mourned the loss of life. In 2004, he returned to the public eye when he was denied entry into the United States after his name appeared on a no-fly list.[2] He successfully sued British newspapers for libel because of their reports on this incident.
Yusuf Islam returned to the pop music world in 2006, recording and actively promoting his first pop music album of new songs in 28 years, entitled An Other Cup. He has been given several awards for his work in promoting peace in the world, including the 2004 Man for Peace award and the 2007 Mediterranean Prize for Peace. He lives with his wife and five children in London and spends part of each year in Dubai.[

His name is now Yusuf Islam and he is no longer in the business. I don't know if he's in a terrorist establishment or if he just lives a quiet life as a Muslim.
