Life With The Hijab By Sadaf Syed

① University of Michigan’s DJ Hadeel Al-Hadidi created and broadcasts her own hour-long radio program.
② Scholars teach that Islam encourages sports and physical activity for all, wrote Sayed. The prophet Muhammad is said to have invited his wife Aisha to a foot race.
③ Nadia Afghani, left, and Nadia Chohan make up Hijabi Deafness, a Muslim punk rock/hip-hop band.
④ Michelle Yim, a network engineer, skis, swims, body surfs, rides motorcycles – all while wearing the hijab.
⑤ Atlanta-based Mariem “Punchenella” Brakache (5-5, 1KO) is a former IBA Junior Middleweight Champion, boxing coach and renowned trainer.
⑥ A ballerina and tap dancer from Texas, Hiba Awad is anxious to prove “how versatile and unique a Muslim woman can be.”
⑦ Nousheen Yousuf said the practice of tae kwon do “taught me to treat daily prayers as a real meditation, where the focus is on my relationship with God.”
⑧ Nosheen Cassim, a part-time makeup artist and full-time mother of two, was born and raised in Illinois, but has been threatened by strangers who told her to “go back to where she came from.”
⑨ No matter how different they may look from other beachgoers, Sama Wareh, left, and Aurelia Khatib believe in doing what they love, including surfing.
⑩ Asma Azim, a step-grandmother from Pakistan, has been a manager of mechanics and a truck driver for more than a dozen years. She said her male contemporaries treat her with respect – especially when they discover she can repair her own engine.

Powerful images of Muslim rage.

LOOKIT ALL THIS RAGE! I’m terrified, I guess we should invade a country or something.

This comes from this article that was mocking Newsweek’s current cover

Screw you Newsweek for desperately trying to be important.

LOOK AT ALL OF THIS RAGE!!!

Islam, the Quran, and the Five Pillars All Without a Flamewar: Crash Course World History #13 (by crashcourse)

Makes me miss my religion classes! 

Also, I would like everyone to watch this before they comment on “muslim terrorists”,  ”islamics”, sharia law and why muslims supposedly want to take over the world… 

(via Islamic Center of Murfreesboro: After Long Fight, Opening Day For Tennessee Mosque)

“Opponents of the project held a protest rally and then sued the county to stop construction.

Their attorneys claimed in court that Islam was not a real religion deserving First Amendment protections. They also claimed that local Muslims were part of a plot to overthrow the U.S. constitution and replace it with Islamic law.”

Oh yes.. the world’s second largest religion is not a “real religion”
