Misconception With Muslims In America

Post by Murax »

Apparantly they think that if You fast Ramadan in the workplace or You pray and some of them happen to see You, You'll lose Your job or will be made an enemy. I got a new job and this Lebanese dude I as Him the qiblah and He's like I never prayed Here, and I woudln't reccomend it. He also doesn't fast, and I notice He seems very paranoid. I've actually noticed the opposite, I actually got nothing but respect and awe When My Boss found out I'm fasting this whole time. He wanted to bring food for everyone and I said I'm fasting and He was taken aback and I noticed a new level of respect :up:

Walle its true the saying that if You ku caasi Ilahay to please the creation, the creation and Ilaahay will be against You

Actually theres a lot. The anti muslim hysteria in america stirred up by the neocons here is at a fever pitch. Muslims like everyone else watch the news and it scares the bejeebers out of them, and it has a affect on them. Personally to this day, I have never experienced anti muslim discrimination in America not even at airports. Also if I was to experience it I would simply take it until it became unbearable and I couldn't live anywhere and if that happened I'd just pack up, leave and try to earn a living in a different part of the world Where I can practice my Religion

Meru,

Internet here is very good. I can not wait for the aid agencies to pack up and leave their Nairobi HQs rendering thousands of Kenyans jobless.

You can sue your business for religious discrimination if you lose your job due to you praying/fasting.

Meru,

I have satellite net. You can also get local service ranging from $25 to over $300 per month from a local provider.

Nah, Kenyans except Somali Kenyans are not welcome in Mogadishu.

Cause you live in the Washington, DC Area.

Step 50 miles outside of this metro area and the I-95 corridor and you'll see anti-Muslim rhetoric :lol:

gurey, there's a lot of Muslims who are scared to just be who they are and end up following their gaalo brethern and becoming even more wastes
