The biggest desire of a Muslim is the after life.
I feel with some passion that what we truly are is private, and almost infinitely complex, and ambiguous, and both external and internal, and double- or triple- or multiply natured, and largely mysterious even to ourselves; and furthermore that what we are is only part of us, because identity, unlike "identity", must include what we do. And I think that to find oneself and every aspect of this complexity reduced in the public mind to one property that apparently subsumes all the rest ("gay", "black", "Muslim", whatever) is to be the victim of a piece of extraordinary intellectual vulgarity.
I just won the gold medal and I couldn't eat downtown. I said, 'Something's wrong. ' And from then on, I've been a Muslim.
Well, the correct answer is he is not a Muslim, he’s a Christian. He’s always been a Christian. But the really right answer is, what if he is? Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country?
Protect yourself from Muslim vampires by making your neck non-halal.
It makes me furious to hear haters of all skin colors - especially Christian, Jewish, and Muslim fundamentalists - deride other people because of their different beliefs and lifestyles.
No one can be a true Muslim and a true American simultaneously.
Saying that the origin of the Islamic State (IS) is within the Muslim Brotherhood organisation only strengthens IS.
I'm a Muslim, but I think Jesus would have a drink with me. He would be cool. He would talk to me.
I myself am Muslim and I stand on the side of an open society.
People care. Their hearts are open, but people don't know exactly what the Dreamers are going through, or what sanctuary cities are for, or what's positive about the American Muslim community. When you don't know a lot, you can't do a lot.
I'm not talking about reforming #Islam. . it is to reform the #Muslim minds & the Muslim understandings of the texts.
Let's not play games. I was suggesting - you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith.
I'm used to always being different, in any context. People always want to know how I grew up, so I just say I grew up Muslim. That's the truth. Two Muslim girls can write me two extremely different letters - and they do. Some are very supportive, and some question what I do.
I'm for Barack Obama. We gotta have the Muslim cell in there just to piss Rush Limbaugh and the right wing off.
A Muslim should be sincerely religious AND politically aware.
One of the things that made the Black Muslim movement grow was its emphasis upon things African. This was the secret to the growth of the Black Muslim movement. African blood, African origin, African culture, African ties. And you'd be surprised - we discovered that deep within the subconscious of the black man in this country, he is still more African than he is American.
A true Muslim is like rain, wherever it falls, it will benefit.
Muslims are the first victims of Islam. To liberate a Muslim from his religion is the best service that one can render him!
I feel like one of the things that is central to American life is the religious experience, and I think that the experience of being Muslim in America is as valid and as important a perspective on the religious experience of America as evangelical Christianity or Judaism - whatever it may be.
