You could say the same thing regarding African American slaves embracing the religion of their masters, Christianity. That makes just as little sense.
Religion is not logical, religion is about gut feeling and belief. I'm not invalidating either faith, just saying that it's pointless to try and rationalize religious decisions like other decisions.

Islam tends to fish in troubled waters. For example Indonesia went from being largely Buddhist to largely Muslim after Krakatoa or some other volcano blew, reducing their respect in the polytheistic G-ds.
