@@plum111 I was greatly impressed to hear a Syrian school girl, a recent immigrant in the UK, speak excellent English when being interviewed on the radio. When she was complimented on her language skills, she said that she went to after school English speaking lessons and she lived and breathed English speaking so that she could build relationships and understand everything she could that was being said by anyone. She'd been here only 6 months. That is incredible, very impressive. I'm sure she will excel wherever she is in whatever she does.

If you do you are sick. You are calling me sexist, then you are a hypocrite. In front of GOD only they who have the most piety are the best of us. Hijab does protect women.

Hijab is not to protect them from men. Men are supposed to lower their gaze. It is a sign of modesty NOT mandated by God.

[@aleempervaiz8789]

Most of the western women said after wearing the hajib, they were nervous and embarrassed. The same is the position of Muslim women/girls without hijab or burka. The western countries banning hijab, niqab, and burka are in fact violating the fundamental rights of women and also working against the feminist movement. Feminism means one can wear what she likes. The imposing of fine by certain western countries on wearing hijab is ridiculous and disgusting.

Her parents should be very proud of her. Very intelligent young lady

So nice !! I watched this video and I was feeling terrible. It is difficult as a Muslim to live in a country where the majority doesn’t follow any religion. You INSPIRED me . مع أني اصغر منك بس انتي صرتي من هلق قدوتي . انا بحب الحجاب كتير و الدين بس للأسف محيطي الاجتماعي مابيشجعني عهالشي . حلو كتير انو عندك أم متدينة بتروح معك عالجامع. انا هالشي بالنسبة الي حلم . بتمنالك الخير و القوة . الله يكون معك و مع اهلك بكل خطوة و يبعتلك رفيق درب يساندك و ما يوقف بوج مسيرتك و دراستك . بحبك كتير و ضلي دائما هيك .. انا فخورة فيكي لأبعد الحدود

Recently, someone pointed out that Muslims leave Muslim countries to live in what can be termed Christian countries or secular countries in the West.

Shireen Jamil It is called freedom. Nobody should be obligated to follow religion. That is the beauty of US.

[@ekaterini2957]

Absolutely made me weep seeing this amazing young lady. Surely this is the beautiful spirit of Allah (remember y'all this is Arabic for God) that is shining so powerfully through her. We are ALL God's children. We need to remember this. Muslims, Jews, Zoroastrians, Christians, Sikh's, Buddhists -- God manifests to each in a unique way -- but remember GOD HAS CREATED ALL OF THIS. WHO ARE WE TO QUESTION WHY?

Muslims, Arabs, people of color live complex lives! Their stories have nuance and context and shift and change over time. They are influenced by their history, family, friends, and community just like anyone else. Thank you for this piece!

How does this family look like "people of color"??? Its like the jews who say theyre "poc", lmfao, how can religion change your color or race??
