The head of security for disgraced rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, known as Mr. Fixit, who could “make any problem with law enforcement disappear,” served as Michael Jackson’s head of security.
The Daily Mail revealed in an exclusive report that Nation of Islam follower Faheem Muhammad was among the first people to see the King of Pop’s body after his unexpected death in 2009.
Muhammad is currently accused of providing security to Diddy, who is accused of abuse and sexual misconduct against officers in a lawsuit brought by a music producer.
After receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Sacramento State College in 2008, he started working for Jackson.
His first job was as MJ’s bodyguard and driver. Just 10 months after Jackson died of a drug overdose, Muhammad managed the security operation for the world’s biggest star at just 21 years old.
During the murder trial of Jacko’s doctor Conrad Murray, clean-shaven Muhammad, 37, described his job duties. “I was their head of security, so my responsibilities ranged from making sure their home was protected, their children were protected and making sure their day-to-day activities were safe and planned and mapped out Be.”
He also told the court in detail about the events that followed after Jackson was found dead on June 25, 2009.
Muhammad said in his testimony that upon looking closely at Jackson, he noticed that “his eyes were open” and “his mouth was slightly open.”
Asked whether it seemed he was dead, Muhammad replied “yes”.
Found guilty, Murray was sentenced to four years in prison, but was released after spending two years in prison.

Muhammad’s relation with Didi
Following Jackson’s passing, Muhammad worked in a similar capacity for Diddy, 54, where he exercised the same authority, sexually and physically assaulting the rapper, according to a complaint filed earlier this year by rapper Lil Rod. Harassment was alleged.
“Lil Rod, whose real name is Rodney Jones, said in court documents that Mr. Combs made it clear that his security chief, Faheem Muhammad, had the ability to make people and problems disappear.”
The documents further claim that the rapper instructed his employees to contact Muhammad if he was stopped by police in Miami or California.
According to the lawsuit filed by Jones, Muhammad helped cover up the alleged shooting by Diddy in September 2022 of his son Justin’s friend, identified only as “G” in court records.
Lil Rod claims that no one other than Diddy or his son could have shot G, and that they “planned a coverup” by having Muhammad and others lie to the police about what happened.
The case, which was filed in February, is still pending in the courts.
