...or for the topic of racism. Recently, society’s spot light has been on “Black Lives Matter” this is a movement that emphasizes police brutality against black individuals and having equal options for blacks. The movement has been presented largely through the use of social media and recently has escalated to the big stage on national TV during the super bowl. What is interesting about all of these racism topics is how it has become a one way street. The media only focuses on when black individuals are upset with the white race, or how they only air news stories about injustices happening to black people when there is problems happening to all cultures in our country and around the world....

...Effects on American Muslims After 9/11 A recent survey about American Muslims living in households in the United States range from 0.2 to 0.6 percent. That means the United States holds around 418,000 to 1,254,000 American Muslims that live here. However, it never mattered to the Americans how many Muslims were in the United States till 9/11 happened to us. On September 11, 2001, two American planes were hijacked by Muslims and crashed into the Twin towers in New York City. It shocked and devastated the whole county. Americans were shocked and confused on what to think or do about the American Muslims that were living in American going to school with their children. However, how did the American Muslims feel about what happed? How did American react? What happened to the American Muslims and their religion after all of this was through? After the Twin Towers feel the American Muslims felt the post effect from the citizens of America. After the attack American Muslims felt some discrimination about the attack and felt the effect. When the Twin Towers fell it was caused by the Muslims flying the plan into the towers. American’s attitudes towards the American Muslims changed from letting then live in the country to all American Muslims are terrorist. Hate mail was received to many families because of their religion. The American Muslim Political Coordination Council gave a statement, “American Muslims utterly condemn what are apparently vicious and cowardly acts of terrorism...

...provided by authors of both schools of thought. The premise that Muslims and Hindus are two different nations, the point that lead to The Two Nation Theory, and that there has always been a general discontent between them can neither be dated back to Emperor Aurangzeb era, (Sayeed, 1969) nor to the British regime for their policy of divide and rule (Alvi, 2002), rather seeing it logically, throughout the course of history Hindus have seen Muslims as outsiders and invaders, as history has seen that first the Lodhi dynasty and then the Mughal dynasty invaded and then ruled India. Similarly, Muslims based on their faith, had always treated Hindus as infidels, but having said so, it seems that over a period of time both communities had somehow carved out a way to live together in the social setting of India and created an amalgam of Muslims and Hindu culture. This is evident from many rituals common in both even today, for example the marriage ceremony practiced by Indian Muslims. So conflict and concord were running in parallel between the two communities and even to this day, there are many events of communal riots in India between Muslim and Hindus simultaneous with frequent events of unity. This fact leads to an argument that if these two things have been and still are parallel to each other then what was the point in creating a separate country, if the conflicts were so strong and that it was impossible for Muslims to live with Hindus then India should have seen another partition...

...about 1.8 billion numbers of Muslim in the world and about 7 million in the U.S (Religious&Tolerance, 2013). Islam can be found in the Qur’an and it is an Arabic religion which submission to the will of Allah. Muslims think Allan is their god. According to our textbook said,“ The Islam can be traced back a man who called Muhammad is a prophet in 570 BC” (Cullen & Parboteeah, 2014, p.105). Muslim who have faith in the reality and serve to Allah will go to paradise afterlife. Muslims live based on their law which Shari’ah; no matter in their life or work field. People live in this world has many norms. There are five pillars among Muslim which are confession, prayer, alms-giving, fasting, pilgrimage. I pick Saudi Arabia and China to talk how the religion in business environment. As we know Saudi Arabia has large population of Muslim, and also in west of China there are millions of Uyghur and Hui people believe Islam. I choose these two countries because they have different norms in business. First of all, dress code in business, according to their law, the devout Muslim should dress traditional for both men and women in Saudi Arabia’s work field. For example, women should “wear the high necklines and skirt that fall below the knee”, they also should wear a scarf that which cover the head. For men, “they should be covered in loose and unrevealing clothing from his navel to his knee”. (The Islamic Dress Code, 2013). However, in China, although you are Muslim, the Shari’ah law only useful...

In order to understand what is happening to other countries when they welcome people into their countries for Communities in their schools, we have to understand that many times be same people turn around when they’re when they went there are enough of them and stab the very people welcome to them in the back. There are many countries that have allowed Muslims to basically take over their country or parts of by spreading their religion. This is not the first time this happens and it is not the last. The battle in the Middle East has been going on long before America was born. One of the many things I can quickly get out of control is when a religion spreads especially...

...Introduction The purpose of this thesis is to show Islamic stereotypes in American movies made before and after the attacks on 9/11 and this was inspired by the movie, American Sniper, and the backlash and the response that the movie got and it begs the question why did people react the way they did and way they did it. After the movie came out, the people who saw it had a strong opinion about it, either that it was a patriotic movie or that it was offensive to Muslims. Many Americans have grown up in a post 9/11 world and don’t remember what the world was like before that fateful day and as a consequence have grown up with the “War on Terror” and trying to find the people responsible for the attacks on that infamous day in September. After...

...Summary Muslims in Europe Europe is a lovely place with rich and beautiful history but recently there seems to be many problems arising that are causing great conflict and stress. Europeans and surrounding areas are extremely diverse in culture, religion, education, and background that there seems to be never ending conflict. Extremist thoughts and ideas might not be extreme to some but conservative thoughts and ideas might be radical to others. This diversity is what European countries are trying to overcome. In Britain, some non-religious schools seem to be taken over by Muslim influence and teaching extremism and strict Islamic Ideas. In Ireland, a pastor spoke strongly against Islam and their and extremist ideas, which obviously has angered the Islamic community. What we are seeing in Europe is a clash between western and Islamic civilization. Britain has found itself angering Muslims in trying to root out religious conservatism from a few schools. One school inspector downgraded a largely Muslim institution that failed to protect the children from “extremism.” The school is not a religious school but was being heavily influenced by the Muslims. Anti-gay comments were excused, girls were not being called on in class, Islam was the only religion being taught, and the list goes on. Other schools were inspected and found similar results. Britain is dramatically promoting tolerance of others, freedom, and anti-terrorism in schools which is offending many Muslims along the...

...Warfare Evolution War is a never ending, yet historical event. It is supposed to be used to solve conflicts. It is supposed to determine which nation will be considered the more superior nation and to determine which nation would be considered to be the weakest. Although war is supposed to be used to solve conflicts, often times instead of solving conflicts it either makes matters worse or creates new problems. According to the Merriam Webster’s dictionary, war is defined as, “a state or period of fighting between countries or groups. It is also defined as an organized effort by a government or other large organization to stop or defeat something that is viewed as dangerous or bad (War, 2016).” War consists of a lot of violence, and unfortunately we as a society, think that is the best way to get our point across and the best way to solve problems. It is a situation that affects so many people. Not just those involved in the actual fighting in the war, but their families, their friends, and each country included in the war. When we send soldiers in to fight a battle, a lot of them will not make it back home to see their loved ones again. They may not even understand or agree with the reason behind the war. They just know they were called to serve their country and that’s what they will do. Based on the history of the United States of America, we have been at war for about 90% of the time since 1776. Some of the wars that have been instrumental within our history and that I...

...questions still evolve as to what makes a human being decide what is right, or wrong in their walk as a citizen of the world. As to the choices of being right this essay is referring to the moral equates of truth, respect, and the honor of human life. As to the choices of being wrong references will be made to lies, sin, and the disregard for human life. Looking at the similarities of Islam and Christianity one can find many common ideologies between the two religions. Although there may be some likeness between these two powerhouse religions there are certainly many differences to be discussed. It would be important to note that in the belief of Islam one similarity between Islam and Christianity are that both believe in one God. The Muslim faith is a monotheistic religion and they are very firm in their dedication and commitment to Allah. Christianity, too, is a belief in one God. Monotheistic in principle; however, some differences exist because of a belief in one God in three persons, The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. These three are one, yet separate. For example, an egg is one, however; it has a shell, a yolk, and the white. These three parts make up one egg. Christians believe in one God with three personal traits. In Islam, Fisher (371) gives an account of a new prophet being born, Muhammed. Many Americans are familiar with this prophet because of the encounter the United States of America had with radical Islamist religions on September 11th, 2001. Islam...

...How Has September 11, 2001 Changed Muslims Lives? Jasmune Howell Eng/258 July 15, 2013 Karen Walker How Has September 11, 2001 Changed Muslims Lives? Before September 11, 2001 Muslims were not treated differently and were treated as an(take out the word an) Equals where ever they went and they respected the United States of America. Because Muslims Say that the United States of America is a free Country and that Muslims are treated better in the United States of America. On September 11, 2001 that all changed for Muslims due to a horrifying incident that cause two commercial airplanes to crash into the twin towers in New York City, killing people immediately and it was found that there were Muslim suicide bombers don’t need “and” on each flight that flew into the twin towers killing themselves as well as hundreds as well. Upon this taking place (this is a run-on sentence) Muslims all over started to receive different feelings and they retrieved different reactions in regards to what took place during September 11, 2001. Some of the scenarios took place after September 11, 2001: There was a Muslim family that planned a party for the family and as the families started to arrive they found that when family members arrived there was a large crowd outside of the restraint telling them they should go back to their country and among the Muslim families were children and they would ask their parents what country do they think we are from we were born...

...Islamophobia affects many people, even if they do not identify as Islamic. There has been a dramatic increase in violence and bigotry in America that is directly related to Islamophobia. If Americans do nothing to stop the spread of Islamophobia, America would become an increasingly dangerous place to live, and it would become a repetition of the events preceding World War II. There are many things Americans can do to prevent Islamophobia from becoming a permanent, unsolvable problem in the United States, such as electing political leaders that would lead America in a positive direction. The future of the United States lies on Americans’ abilities to let go of the past and work together to make the United States a peaceful, welcoming, and accepting place for people of all races and religions to...

...appearance? When will the racism subside? When will Muslims and non- Muslims come together as one? These are the questions I ask myself when I hear about the fight between Muslims- Americans and Americans. This wasn’t always my mind-set about Muslims; I used to hate them all because of the tragedy of 9/11. When 9/11 occurred I was sitting in my sixth grade math class, and I still to this day believe I saw an airplane flying low. I was devastated because I thought all Americans’ were going to perish that day. I went home and cried to my mom continuously repeating “I want to live; I am only a child”. She didn’t have a response to give me because she didn’t know the possible outcome. As a child growing up that was the worst day of my life, and from that day forward I despised anyone who resembled the Muslim religion. I just wanted them all to drop dead, so we as Americans could feel safe again because no matter where I went I felt as though there would be another attack. As I began to grow up I realized I couldn’t think that way about all Muslims because not every single one of them was a part of the violence. Shouting Across the Divide broadcast opened up my eyes even more about what Muslims actually have to go through living in America. Listening to this story made me feel gloomy and partially guilty. I believe I was guilty because I was once among those who frowned upon Muslims. I say this because yes at one point I hated all Muslims after 9/11, but I never would approach them or...

...After more than fifty years of Independence, India and Pakistan tackle numerous obstinate predicaments that the British marooned for these novel countries to settle. Kashmir lives to be the solitary of the many legacies of their distrust and uncertainty. The origins of the calamity extend to the tragic partition of the two countries in 1947, when the British government departed India after a rule of 250-years characterized by mistreatment and divide and conquer approaches. The British Empire’s divisive strategies, which were intended to generate rifts between Hindus and Muslims in order to attenuate any potential cohesive opposing forces. This began in the early 1900s, when the British started to dread the perceived mounting potency of the Hindu nationalist movement. In order to repress the perils, the British government began to vigorously support the Muslim League, a political party led by Muhammad Ali Jinnah who aimed to signify the subcontinent’s Muslim interests. The British pinned these two groups adjacent to one another, and eventually the Muslim League was compelled to stipulate the creation of a separate state, to be called Pakistan, because they believed that their interests would not be portrayed in a Hindu majority India. The severance of both countries paved a way to their joint antagonism into three wars (of which two were directly over Kashmir), which have affected their alliance till today. On August 15, 1947 the British left the realms of India, leaving behind...

...The Sunna, and the Sufi. The Quran is the holy book of the Muslims. It literally means the recitation (Zwemer 2002). It is the most holy text of the religion and central to the faith. It is also the best-known sacred text of Islam. The Muslims claimed that Allah handed down the words of the Quran to Mohammed through an angel named Jibril (Zwemer 2002). It was composed for a period of approximately 20 years sometime in 610 CE to 630 CE. Quran literally means recitation. The Muslims considered this text as a miracle and a proof of Mohammed’s prophethood. The Muslim believed that the Quran is the final authority when it comes to matters of faith and doctrine. It is considered divine and sacred. However, although the Quran is the most holy and sacred text of the Islamic religion it is not the sole source of inspired message and tradition among the Muslim. The Muslim as of equal importance to the faith also views the Sunna. Sunna means a clear path. The Muslim considered the Sunna as the record of what the prophet had said, done, condoned or condemned (Zwemer 2002). In other words, the Sunna is the complete biography of the prophet. Here, it discussed the Mohammed’s customs, practices teachings and sayings. The Sunna give the Muslim believer an idea on how Mohammed live on earth and how he followed the teachings of the Quran. It is a guide to all Muslim as they apply the principles of Quran in their life. The Muslims believe that Mohammed was the perfect human being and the only...
