post-Cold War world the West’s search for a new other manifests an alarming tendency to centre on the Muslim world, the author argues that a better understanding of Islamic life is desperately needed.…

You could hope periodically, or never wish at all, fast in the month of Ramadan or never quickly at all, make a pilgrimage to Mecca or never do it at all; but would permanently consider yourself a real follower of Islam, understanding that to be a Muslim is really a connection between man and Lord and that one's faith isn't accountable to other people.…

It is interesting how, today, Muslims in the Middle East have a strained relationship with Jewish people. Despite the Quran’s teachings that “any who believe in God, and act righteously… have nothing to fear,” Middle Eastern Jews are under consistent threat from the powerful Islamic forces around them. Islamic terrorists frequently target Jews, something that seemingly goes against the sacred teachings of Islam. The Quran instructs Muslims to be accepting of Judaism (as well as Christianity)…

born in Somalia but raised in Holland after her mother migrated to the Netherlands. I discovered that Ayaan's passion for the law derived from her mother’s position as a political refugee in Holland and as a victim of the extremist practices of the Muslim community. My perspective of…

think that this so called group was an endangerment to american citizens. In a form of way we believe KKK is a terrorist group. They influenced so many people into the mindset of racial segregation. So why must they be free to do what they want and muslims are the one that suffer. They endangered american lives. They built their foundation on what america was against. In th9is situation national security wa more important than the civil…

thoughts and perceptions of a person. Although not often noticed, these ideologies create prejudice towards different ways of life, such as the religious views of an individual. In modern day society when some Americans see a person who follows the Muslim religion, they think of one thing: terrorists. This ideology dates back to the attacks on the World Trade Center in which some Americans have now developed islamophobia due to the catastrophic event. In addition,…

the time of Muslim rule by the Moors in Spain marks a unique moment in the middle ages whereby Muslims, Jews and Christians intermingled with some level of religious tolerance. It is also an important topic because the achievements the Moors brought to Spain and the rest of Europe are often ignored by academics. The purpose of this essay is to highlight the important achievements of the Islamic Moors in Muslim Spain. However I will restrict my analysis to why the achievements of Muslim Moors in…

on how Islam is portrayed in America. They believe that originally, Islam wasn’t a really issue at all, but it changed ever since 9/11. For example, American Islam existed and Muslims were living and socializing with other communities and their religios identity wasn’t an issue “The 9/11 attacks forced American Muslims into a period of introspection and a realization that their faith was being defined by a horrific event and its aftermath that they had no control over.”(The Shock of 9/11).…

felt that Muslims, Native Americans and Greece’s civilizations and their decisions are made due to their different beliefs. In this essay, I argue that while the Muslim world and the early Native American’s civilizations are deeply rooted in religion, Greece is more political than religious. In the Muslim world their lives revolve around their religion. They follow the Five Pillars; they are guidelines for Muslims so they are able to stay on a riotous path. True believers of the Muslim faith…

Many people including Muslims themselves sometimes misunderstand the Holy Koran, because it has many implicit peaceful great messages. However, and as a Muslim person, I cannot deny that too many Muslims overwhelm in their religion and what the Koran says or teaches us. Koran didn’t say to kill or to harm anyone including ourselves; it doesn’t make sense that one religion is all about death, killing and blood, because this isn’t Emo’s or Gothic’s religion with no offense to them surely. On the…
