Can a good Muslim be a good American?
Interesting questions for the Muslim Community to discuss.


For research on our part also.


. . . Can a good Muslim be a good American?


I forwarded that question to a friend who worked in Saudi Arabia for 20 years .



The following is his forwarded reply:



Theologically - no.


. . . Because his allegiance is to Allah, the moon God of Arabia.


Religiously - no.


. . . Because no other religion is accepted by his Allah except Islam (Qu ran, 2:256)


Scripturally - no.


. . . Because his allegiance is to the five pillars of Islam and the Qu ran (Koran).


Geographically - no.


. . . Because his allegiance is to Mecca, to which he turns in prayer five times a day.


Socially - no.


. . . Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make friends with Christians or Jews.


Politically - no.


. . . Because he must submit to the mullah (spiritual leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and Destruction of America, the great Satan.


Domestically - no.


. . . Because he is instructed to marry four women and beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him


(Quran 4:34 ).


Intellectually - no.


. . . Because he cannot accept the American Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes the Bible to be corrupt.


Philosophically - no.


. . . Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran do not allow freedom of religion and expression.


. . Democracy and Islam cannot co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic.


Spiritually - no.


. . . Because when we declare "one nation under God," the Christian's God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to as heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in The Quran's 99 excellent names.


- - - Therefore after much study and deliberation.... Perhaps we should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country.


- - - They obviously cannot be both "good" Muslims and good Americans.


* * * Call it what you wish..it's still the truth.


* * * You had better believe it.


If you find yourself intellectually in agreement with the above statements, perhaps you will share this with your friends.


+ + + The more who understand this, the better it will be for our country and our future.

did anyone happen to see CNN's report last night on religion in america!? they went so far as to report census data on who lives where and what religion they are and how it will affect/sway their politcal opinions... i think this is an infrendgment on our 1st ammendment right

according to CNN 85% of americans are christain. They even made a disclaimer that this included agnostic beliefs.... EDIT!!? i consider myself to be agnostic and find that VERY different than Christain. what is going on here?

Ridehog, Absolutely correct, but how many Americans will see this very simple ideology before it is too late, and they are forced to kiss the buttocks of a made up deity, allah?
It is funny how so many people here and everywhere in the world, ridicule the God of Christianity, and it is allowed, but just even laugh at allah, and you are marked for death!
The future foretold?

I hate it when I can't type. I was saying that it doesn't look like there are 72 virgins in Ridehogs future.

I realize I'm probably going to get a few of you upset, but I have to say this... For those of you that say (type) Allah with such disgust, I must tell you that the word "Allah" is Arabic for God. It's not a "made-up" God.

I can't believe that you're grouping all Muslims in to the same radical sect. I've known many Muslims and I'd trust them with my life. You can't say that ALL people that follow the Quran are evil! I choose to believe that there are good and evil persons in ALL religions. Muslim Americans can be just as reliable as Christian Americans. Don't fall in to the trap of hating the entire religion!!

I think you know the ones that aren't good Muslims. With that religion you can't have it both ways. All those statements are true.
Also nobody said it was a made up God "Allah" is the moon God of Arabia.

Actually, Flippy called Allah a "made-up deity". And where did this moon god stuff come from? Allah is just the Arabic word for God. Just like in Spanish, God is called Dios. Please see the encyclopedia's definition of Allah.....

Allah (al'u, ä'lu) [key], [Arab.,=the God]. Derived from an old Semitic root refering to the Divine and used in the Canaanite El, the Mesopotamian ilu, and the biblical Elohim, the word Allah is used by all Arabic-speaking Muslims, Christians, Jews, and others. Allah, as a deity, was probably known in pre-Islamic Arabia. Arabic chronicles suggest a pre-Islamic recognition of Allah as a supreme God, with the three goddesses al-Lat, al-Uzza, and Manat as his “daughters.” The Prophet Muhammad, declaring Allah the God of Abraham, demanded a return to a strict monotheism. Islam supplements Allah as the name of God with the 99 most beautiful names (asma Allah al-husna), understood as nondescriptive mnemonic guides to the Divine attributes.

See? No mention of the moon.....

The key word here is "good". Now I am not Freshhorse who does his homework, and is currently reading the Quaran to understand the religion. Why would a devout Muslim WANT to live here except to make his way to heaven via death and destruction? I have a client, an Egyptian woman that is Muslim. I tell you what, I cried along with her when her husband stole her daughter and took her to Egypt. I prayed to MY God that the complicated plan to have the girl get to the airport and get the plane ticket I had waiting for her. Whatever floats your boat...really, but the "good Muslim" requirements above should not be tolerated here.

Don't mind moderate muslims, don't like Islam at all.
