Does Muslims work in Muslim nations?

I believe some of them are..\nI remember seeing someone paying them some money after riots.\nBelieve it or not...\n\nSome did it because they are fanatics,\nSome did it because they're getting paid..\n\nI don't know about the other country..\nbut at least, in my country (one of muslim nations), I know that they DO pay those young men on the roads to yell and scream..\nBut, again, I believe that those who riots, burns, and kills aren't really muslims. They thought that they're good islamic followers. But, i don't think they do their homework in reading their holy book.\n\nToo bad, none of the real followers in my country dare to give those people the 'real' truth. I guess they're affraid of getting stoned.

In Muslim countries, illegal immigrants get sent to prison. Immigrants, however, get no citizenship or rights, and in most Middle East Muslim countries, cannot worship freely. It is a crime in Saudi Arabia for any worship except Islam.\n\nLuckily, there are no Jewish Mexicans (are there?), because they would not even be allowed into many Middle East Muslim countries.\n\nAlso, if they protested like the fools did and will do on 5/1, they would be arrested and deported, at best, and probably beaten, possibly killed. They aren't big on Western concepts like 'human rights'.\n\nImmigrant workers are permanent second class citizens, and can never be citizens.

Turkey doesn't allow freedom of religious expression or association. To join the EU they would have to agree to abide by the EU charter which mandates such freedom. Article 301 basically makes it illegal to convert from Islam to another faith.

It depends on their mentallity.Those muslims, who loves his nation more than his religion,will support India in these cases.Otherwise they will not support India.

No. A land is governed by Islam only if it follows Islamic law. So even many "Muslim countries" today are not governed by Islam.

Absolutely. In nearly every country, there are still people who face challenges, whether it's finding a job, or not getting laughed at, or even arrested, because of their religion.\n\nFor example, in France, Muslims are forbidden from wearing headscarves in school. Is this a reasonable safety measure against gangs or a violation of religious freedom?\n\nAnother example, in the US, is the "intelligent design" controversy. Can schools tell kids, whose parents may be fundamentalist Christians, that they evolved from apes? Can they tell everyone that religion is an "alternative", or would this violate the separation of church and state?\n\nQuite a few questions still remain, and I'm sure you can think of many more conflicts based on religion, or lack thereof.

Actually there is.  There is over a million Muslims in the USA and over 800 Islamic centers of worship.   There are very many very wealthy Muslims in high places and quite a few are very good friends with the Bush's family.\nMany upper middle income family's, that are doctors, lawyers, and company owners of stores, gas stations, etc.  Who are very loyal to this country and they do vote.  They have a very influential lobby and a lot of influence over our governmental process, just as any other Americans do.  So do the Jewish religion.  As the above guy said, There is a Saudi lobby that is very powerful.

According to my reading Islam considers men and women to be equal.  Women may work outside of the home as long as their position is not in direct contradiction to the dictates of their faith.  Women retain the right to use their earnings as they see fit and to educate themselves.  According to the Quran "And their Lord hath accepted them, and answered them: Never will I suffer to be lost the work of any of you,be he male or female: ye are members of one another..." To grow intellectually is the duty of every Muslum, man or woman. Anyway food for thought...

Like all immigrant or race or ethnic groups, muslims bring something to the party which enhances life for everyone within the UK.\n\nOne rotten apple does not spoil the cider! As a successful European multicultural society, our diversity is our economic strength, as is the case in the good ol' USA (a land built by immigrants).  \n\nUnfortunately the lack of tolerance and understanding between ALL different communities has allowed a situation where the muslim population is seen as the 'scapegoats'.\n\n2nd and 3rd generation muslims (who are effectively British) feel as if they no longer have a voice within contemporary British society. This situation lends itself to feeding the radical element of Islam which corrupts the muslim youth of the UK.\n\nTo answer your question, the UK authorities are well aware of the undesirable individuals within the British muslim community and will only deport/imprison those involved in what we call in Britain, 'Treason' (still punishable by death in UK).\n\nOur espionage is second to none, and the political landscape of our country may change from time to time but certain traits of British life remain the same. We have seen it all before, many times. Deportation of Muslims is not necessary!

Do Muslims remain misfits in western society? I am not at all sure that they do. Sure there are some Muslims who do not seem to like western culture and values, but can this be applied to the whole of the Muslim world? I don't think so. Many, many Muslims live and enjoy their lives in the west. In our society they are free to worship as they please and live their lives as they wish. This is a strength of our western culture that I believe most Muslims thoroughly appreciate. Yes there have been people who claim to be Muslims who flew planes in to the World Trade Centre, planted bombs on packed Spanish commuter trains and blew up London tube trains and buses, but these are a twisted minority and do not represent the vast majority of peaceful law abiding Muslims living in our midst. It is my understanding that the holy Qu'ran instructs Muslims how they should conduct themselves when living in foreign countries and I think most adhere to this teaching. Only learning and knowledge of each other and our different beliefs will conquer ignorance. Don't give in to ignorance. That is truly a sin.

I think yes.  I think muslims should be profiled over other nationalities since they are the ones committing the terrorists act.

A lot of Muslims disagree with a lot of the things that we do here.  But, many of them learn how to deal with it.  They continue to practice their religon.  Many of them continue to worship Allah and bow to the Holy Land 5 times a day.

We should let them know that if non-Muslims have to wear badges in a Muslim country, then we and all other non-Muslim countries will make the Muslims in the non-Muslim countries also wear badges of the same size and color as required in the Muslim countries. Then we should put pressure on the rest of the world to pass that law in their country.

No.  Like Christianity, Islam has sects.  Some more radical than the others.\n\nWafa Sultan, a Syrian-American has dedicated her life to teaching us about the differences.  She risks her life to do it.

This is my answer from a similar question (link in the sources).  Since many of these Islamic countries are allies of the USA, the answer is "no".  The only groups these countries must "fight back" against are the extremists in one, very numerous, sect of Sunni Islam.\n\nHere is the old answer:\nThe whole Islamic world is not even, or will ever be, allied with itself. I realize that American public education and our universities fail miserably at teaching the truth about other cultures, so here is a run down.\n\nThere are two main sects in Islam (not Muslim as being "Muslim" is a state of Islam, akin to "Nirvana"). These are the Sunnis and the Shia. The Sunnis think the Shia are apostates and traitors to Islam. Within the Sunni sect, there are several other subsects of which Whabbasism is just one. Trying to get all these sects to agree on what day it even is is difficult enough. Having them unite as one is almost impossible. \n\nThis is further complicated by the fact African, Far Eastern, and Indonesian Islamists don't like the Arabs, or each other. Al Qeada's pay and command structure further infuriated non-Arab Islamic people. Old Bin Lying doesn't pay non-Arabs as much as Arabs or let them be as high ranking in his clubhouse. Plus, the genocide in Sudan and other parts is being caused by Islamic Arabs killing Islamic Africans, along with Christian Africans. BTW, Islam refers to Jesus Christ as a prophet and pays homage to him (Guess Bin Lying forgot to read that part of the Quran!).\n\nMixed into this further the tribal and clan nature of the Middle East and Africa. The US, USSR, UK, and others have always been able to fracture the alliances by either buying off a clan or allowing the clans to fight themselves, which is usually what happens without Western involvement.\n\nAnd to top it off, a large and growing number of Islamic peoples do not hate America or what it is doing. Efforts in Afghanistan, Kuwait, Indonesia, Pakistan, and other areas where the US Military and NGOs go in are paying monumental dividends.\n\nIraqis are siding with the USA, as are Jordanians, as are the oppressed people of Iran (they just can't do much about it right now.. such is what always happens when you disarm the people). Then there are the Pastdun people of Pakistan, who, after Al Qeada abandoned them following the massive earthquake that killed 80,000+, saw the ones who rushed in was...come on, guess....That's right, the USA! And who sent massive aid to Indonesia, dispite the lies from leftists in the UN? The USA wins there too by sending very high level, and possibly vulnerable assets to the disaster area. Just like we did for Katrina later, the US military sent assault ships, one of our two hospital ships, and an aircraft carrier without its fighters but loaded with supplies and helos (the USS Kittyhawk) to the area. These efforts speak volumes to the people of the area and cause a rift between them and our enemies.\n\nSo, yes, we stand a great chance since the Islamic world is difficult to unite and easy to fracture.
