The Head of the Islamic Society in BA , today at the Funeral Mentioned that Menen was, raised as a muslim and also raised a great muslim family. He will rest in the Islamic cemetery next to his muslim son.
It wasn't to become President? When exactly did he convert? Was it a requirement to be a governor? Why do you put 'convert' in quotes - because it was likely an insincere move, just for political advancement?
He was raised as a Suni Muslim.

That's interesting. Compensation for an event in history. Still it seems a matter of semantics. Churches aren't taxed, are they?25 April 2018"Sueldo" de obispos argentinos

“Salary” of Argentine bishops. Given that there is enormous ignorance about the origin of this amount (among Catholics and even some bishops), this clarification was offered by Mons. Antonio Baseotto, former bishop of Añatuya and military bishop (emeritus).
In the face of statements and publications about a "salary" that the Argentine State assigns to the bishops, I think some clarifications are necessary. 1) It is not a salary, it is a restitution of the State for the assets of the Catholic Church that were seized in the time of Minister Bernardino Rivadavia in 1823. 2) It is not a salary "for" the bishop, but so that he can maintain the diocese. And I clarify: in 1823, Rivadavia, when the Catholic hierarchy was in a transition stage (due to independence, etc.), it seized the properties and assets of the Catholic Church and undertook on behalf of the State to administer and become charge of the maintenance of that. The "assets" of the Church of that time, and taking into account only those of now in the Capital of Buenos Aires and its surroundings, are valued (the surface of the land) at about 6000 million dollars. This according to a recent study by a real estate agency. When Avellaneda was President the situation was reviewed, with the intention of paying the cost of the seized assets, and made the comment that such a measure would bring a strong shock to the national Treasury....
....I spent 27 years in the diocese of Añatuya (the poorest in the country at that time). The money we received went to the common fund for the maintenance of the bishop, the personnel who work with him, the works (homes for the elderly, children, the disabled, schools, etc.). In the other dioceses the situation is similar and, consequently, the destination of the assignment to the bishop. Each one has its own characteristics, of course. I hope these lines help to clarify the confusion somewhat.
Who is Diaz? The constitution required the President and governors (other elected officials as well?) to be Roman Catholics. Didn't the reform of the constitution prohibit this requirement? Anyway, I was trying to clarify when Menem converted. If I understand you, he did it to be governor as that as a requirement for governors and not just Presidents.25 November 2016
Linked to the Reform of the Constitution. Jose "Pepe" Díaz: "It is difficult to imagine a Muslim ruling a majority of Catholic persons" expressed the rector of the Santuario y Catedral Basilica with respect to the analysis of the constitutional reform. In the lower house there is talk about modifications in reference to the article which refers to Roman Catholicism. The constitution indicates that the government of a province will protect such entity and, as well, to be elected governor and vice-governor it is required to profess said religion....
That's what I was trying to clarify. He converted because he wanted a political career which was impossible for a Muslim. Did all political positions require that the holder be a Roman Catholic? Your use of quotes then implies that his conversion was purely for political reasons. I believe he was married in a Muslim ceremony.
NO....

YES....NO...only those political candidates seeking to be elected as president or governors and vice governors.
