What is Islam? Who are the Muslims? What do Muslims believe? How does someone become a Muslim? ... The Muslim World Islam is not a new religion, but the same truth that God revealed through all His prophets to every people. For a fifth of the world's population, Islam is both a religion and a complete way of life. Muslims follow a religion of peace, mercy, and forgiveness, and the majority have nothing to do with the extremely grave events which have come to be associated with their faith.

http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/newmuslims/

Extractions: In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful This page is built on the shoulders of those people who have volunteered their personal stories of how they entered Islam. If you, the reader, are open to the possibility that Allah, the Creator, has given you clear evidence to accept Him and His message of Islam, then read these stories. From different backgrounds, and different experiences, you just might find someone here who had the same questions and doubts that you may have. Many of these people have endured against tremendous obstacles, including parental opposition, despair with other religions, being blind, and being lied to about the true nature of Islam. If you would like to share your story on how you entered Islam, please let us know! Send your story to msa@usc.edu The following set of stories are mostly taken from email and newsgroup submissions.

I know of the fear, the guilt, the burden, the condemnation, and the bondage that you live under. I know of your longing for freedom, peace, and love. You can be free , through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
MHegazy - Muslims In Science
Biographical sketches of many of the greatest contributors to the development of scientific thought from within the Islamic tradition.
http://www.hostultra.com/~mhegazy/muslims_in_science.htm

Extractions: Muslims in science All of us know a lot about, or at least heard of, the great "famous" scientists like Newton, Max Planck, Einstein, Pauli, Dirac, Feynman, Landau, Riemann, Caushy ...etc. However, many people know nothing about other great scientists, who added a lot to the knowledge of mankind. Their work was the building block of all nowadays sciences (physics, mathematics , chemistry, astronomy, geology, geography, medicine engineering and a lot more) as well as technology. Without their participation, we would have been delayed for many centuries. Those are the scientists of the "golden" Islamic Empire. For many reasons, their names fainted out but their work cannot be ignored. Most importantly, for many reasons (mostly by us Muslims in the first place) the Islamic nation is going from bad to worse. I wish we can wake up and take those great people as leading guides. This page is dedicated to those great, yet hardely-known, muslim and arab scientists.

Native American Muslims
An article about early contact between Native Americans and muslims, which contends many Native Americans adopted Islam. This may tie in with the better known Masonic movement among Native Americans.
http://www.themodernreligion.com/convert/convert_namuslims.htm

Extractions: The Message, July 1996 My name is Mahir Abdal-Razzaaq El and I am a Cherokee Blackfoot American Indian who is Muslim. I am known as Eagle Sun Walker. I serve as a Pipe Carrier Warrior for the Northeastern Band of Cherokee Indians in New York City. There are other Muslims in our group. For the most part, not many people are aware of the Native American contact with Islam that began over one thousand years ago by some of the early Muslim travelers who visited us. Some of these Muslim travelers ended up living among our people. For most Muslims and non-Muslims of today, this type of information is unknown and has never been mentioned in any of the history books. There are many documents, treaties, legislation and resolutions that were passed between 1600s and 1800s that show that Muslims were in fact here and were very active in the comunities in which they lived. Treaties such as Peace and Friendship that was signed on the Delaware River in the year 1787 bear the signatures of Abdel-Khak and Muhammad Ibn Abdullah. This treaty detailes our continued right to exist as a community in the areas of commerce, maritime shipping, current form of government at that time which was in accordance with Islam. According to a federal court case from the Continental Congress, we help put the breath of life in to the newly framed constitution. All of the documents are presently in the National Archives as well as the Library of Congress. If you have access to records in the state of South Carolina, read the Moors Sundry Act of 1790. In a future article, Inshallah, I will go in to more details about the various tribes, their languages; in which some are influenced by Arabic, Persian, Hebrew words. Almost all of the tribes vocabulary include the word Allah. The traditional dress code for Indian women includes the kimah and long dresses. For men, standard fare is turbans and long tops that come down to the knees. If you were to look at any of the old books on Cherokee clothing up until the time of 1832, you will see the men wearing turbans and the women wearing long head coverings. The last Cherokee chief who had a Muslim name was Ramadhan Ibn Wati of the Cherokees in 1866.

Protecting Muslims While Rooting Out Islamists
Christian Apologetic advice about how to root out Islamism while respecting individual muslims.
http://www.apologeticsindex.org/news1/an010915-01.html

Extractions: More News That the assault on New York's highest buildings and the American military headquarters appears to have been organised by Osama bin Laden and carried out exclusively by Muslims has large implications for the way Muslim populations living in all Western countries will be seen in the future. Knowing a bit of background helps to explain what brought us to this situation. Bin Laden's men are not just Muslims but also Islamists. Islam (a religion) is not the problem, but Islamism (a totalitarian ideology) is. Islamism is not so much a distortion of Islam, but a radically new interpretation. It politicises the religion, turning it into a blueprint for establishing a coerced utopia. In many ways, its programme resembles those of fascism and Marxism/Leninism. This week's events mark not the outbreak of a new problem but the heightening of a two-decade-long pattern of Islamist violence. That violence is a truly global phenomenon, affecting such varied countries as Algeria, Pakistan, Russia, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Philippines. Islamists constitute a small but significant minority of Muslims, perhaps 10 to 15 per cent of the population. Many of them are peaceable in appearance, but they all must be considered potential killers.

The Muslim News
Some hope that the media will be more cautious this time before casting baseless blame on Palestinians, Arabs and muslims, as past bombings which were blamed on Arabs were found to be the work of others. Unfortunately, the media and it's selected 'experts' were little interested in dealing with facts. UK.

One Muslims Reflections On The Bahai Faith
A critique of representations made about the Baha'i faith.
http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Acropolis/5111/

Extractions: Translate this home page from English to French English to German English to Italian English to Portuguese English to Spanish English to Japanese English to Korean English to Chinese What would lead someone to make a web page presenting a truncated history and his opinions about another religion? I asked myself this question often when engaging this project, and the reason is simple. As a student at Vanderbilt University I became witness to a rather heavy degree of missionary activity by the Bahai Student Association of Vanderbilt . One of my co-workers in the dormitory where I worked as a Resident Adviser repeatedly asked me to attend one of their information sessions and, to appease his insistence, I did. The session consisted of a speaker from the local community who presented an historical overview and some fundamental tenants of the Bahai Faith. Dispersed among these basic teachings were purported innovations that I had been taught as a Muslim. In addition, the speaker made claims about the role of religion which contradict what I believe the fundamental function of religion is or can be. Finally, and perhaps initially most disturbing, the speaker omitted key historical events and twisted others. Included among these assertions were claims that the Bahai Faith was free from denominational splits, that Bahaullah spent forty years incarcerated, that the Bahai Faith was the world's newest religion, that Bahais have historically refrained from political activity, and that Bahaullah practiced monogamy.
Muslims Against Extremism And Fundamentalism
Collection of articles by theologically motivated Western converts to Islam who oppose Islamic extremism and fundamentalism.
http://www.islamfortoday.com/fundamnetalism.htm

Extractions: The term moderate Muslims is not only becoming important in the post September 11 discussion of Islam and the West, it is also becoming highly contested. What do we really mean when we brand someone as a moderate Muslim? Indeed the more interesting question is what does the word mean to Westerns, looking-in to Islam, and to Muslims, looking out from within Islam? "What was once an occasional event silencing scholars increasingly has become a way of life in most Muslim countries. From South Asia to North Africa, an entire generation of Muslim intellectuals is at this moment under threat: Many have already been killed, silenced, or forced into exile."
