American Muslim

I am American, I also celebrate the religion of Islam, I want people to know that the two can coincide. We celebrate a god, just likeany other religion, just because it’s not Capitol G od, doesn’t mean that it’s the wrong god. Allah is my god, the Koran is my bible and America is still my country. Just like in every culture there are stereotypes we have to live with. I don’t have to wear a hijab, i choose to wear it, because i want to be modest. I do not get treated badly because i am a women, i get treated differently, and there is nothing wrong with that.

The Arabic word ‘Islam’ simply means ‘submission’, and derives from a word meaning ‘peace’. In a religious context it means complete submission to the will of God. ‘Mohammedanism’ is thus a misnomer because it suggests that Muslims worship Muhammad rather than God. ‘Allah’ is the Arabic name for God, which is used by Arab Muslims and Christians alike.

Poetry is prayer

Light dancing inside words

Five times a day

I try to write

Step by step

I move towards the mihrab

I prepare to recite

What is in my heart

I recite your name

Poetry is prayer

Light dancing inside words

Five times a day

I try to write

Step by step

I move towards the mihrab

I prepare to recite

What is in my heart

I recite your name
