When I saw the mother of my Chinese child's teacher at the school, I prepared a small introduction suitable for the age of the children to introduce them to the Chinese history on the occasion of the Chinese New Year. I also brought some Chinese sweets and biscuits and made children the origami-style paper folding paper. The children returned, including my son, , It inspired me to prepare a small introduction about Ramadan or Qbas of Islamic culture and how Muslims are celebrating especially Arabs in various parts of the earth. It was a joyous experience and the reactions of children who did not know that Muslims fast for a whole day without a drink of water still amazes my heart so much.

Their innocence is something that can not be described with all the words of dictionaries and dictionaries! And I waited for my son after school to go back to the house, and contrary to what I expected, I found him sad and his eyes are sad and close to crying, I asked him what he was crying .. Tell me that his colleagues rotated ridicule him and his religion, but some of them asked him a photograph of his Lord and asked him was the opinion of his Lord before or not! At first I decided not to participate in any activity again, to keep my children away from these situations, the children are still young to deal with so much ignorance and disrespect for the other. But then I kept thinking, would we be content with our culture for ourselves in self-respect and fear of criticism and psychological abuse, would this change anything? Will this gain our respect?

Every time I go out to the street with my veil I feel that everyone's eyes around me, many times someone comes out of the window of his car to taunt me or shout to frighten me, or get that head out of the window of her car to look at me contemptuously. Or that seller who answers your questions in frown and annoyance, while responding to you and from you after the customers welcome and capacity, perhaps a little harassment or will not be considered by some people, but it increases the sense of loneliness and isolation as long as I was a minority, but over time I discovered that feeling A general or part of American culture that rejects blacks and scorns those who do not speak English and make fun of people with special needs and isolate the different .. So what is the solution?

The solution is to integrate yourself and impose yourself on them .. Learn their language .. Enter their community .. Attend their meetings and go to their concerts or even read about their culture in their books. Perhaps not many have been exposed to half of the harassment I've been subjected to. To be honest about the picture, not everyone is, of course, but that does not mean there is no harassment.


After the bloody events of September 11, and in the face of the phenomenon of demonizing Muslims and all that is Islamic, some American sects started to create movements to renounce religious extremism, enrich cultural exchange and encourage interfaith dialogue, and when I learned that the local mosque in the state where I lived A special program to adopt these ideas and invite non-Muslims to attend cultural seminars in the mosque I was very happy through the meetings and seminars held by groups of religious and intellectuals has become somewhat space of opinion enables Muslims and other religious and ethnic minorities of the Bear themselves and to show the good side in their culture, which is ignored or Ttmsh and belied by the American media.

It is sometimes difficult to integrate into the community without accusations, absurdities or obscene questions or to maintain your job wearing the veil - unless the laws of the company you work in respect and encourage this - many people wear hijab to get a job or walk safely in the street or Go to public places without harassment or fear! On one evening in a church she went to a cultural symposium to support interfaith dialogue. To wonder, one of the speakers was an atheist man who identified himself as a man with a long history of technology. He was an expert in his speech, which indicates that he was not the first. , From the stability and the well-being of his mind I felt inferior and lack of argument, which made me as a member of the public I say to myself: "God is not all atheist ignorance."


And the session was at the end of the upscale and respect, each gives his opinion and talk about religion and did not offend someone to him, but on the contrary. The speaker talked about the bloody history of Catholics with utter honesty. The Muslim spokesman spoke about some misconceptions about what Islam is all about, and to the surprise of one of the spokesmen of the Christian community, So too.


It was a fine dialogue, although they were not free of some criticism and embarrassing questions. But if the speaker is seasoned and seasoned, he will not take the questions in a critical tone, but he will take them on the curiosity of others. They just want to know. As for the atheist speaker was really dazzling and displays his points clearly and respectfully and extensively in the presentation of his point of view in a way that indicates the capacity of the chest and accept the other, did not find among his characters a gap that allows you to mock him or criticize .. Hallelujah .. Talk reached the persuasion and the presentation of the view that you Ali Haq, and has remained dozens of times confirms that there is no controversy here or the imposition of guardianship.

If you will believe everything you read .. Do not read! If you believe everything you hear .. Do not hear .. Do not be impressed by the good appearance and fluency of the modern .. Do not lie to see the glass of someone's glasses!

You can not accuse him of being ignorant. He has the logic of being a person who knows, and you can not forget him because he argues with respect, and can not criticize his thought because his style Like honey in the honey, and if I did not believe in the existence of God really and I know that if I stopped him with cheers and criticism, it would not be in the interest of what I believe in .. for his reasons .. I wished to stand for his opponents or to utter one of the right Vakhrseh power of argument and the light of science.


But I did not do, I doubted the strength of my argument and I thought that the rhetoric may not help me, what if he defeated me? .. And what if he among us of faith on the letter? He will follow and follow what he said, and he will not follow himself. He must learn about what he knows of his religion. If you want to find God, you will find him towards you. He will guide you, and if you want to deny his existence, you will go away and kill you.


And a few minutes passed on the talk of our atheist owner, and a woman of fifties curled hair back and wearing black and glasses thick .. looked from the body of religious Christians, but also conservatives, and I knew itself, and did not lie to me, did not happen to everyone about her adherence to her faith and religion and identity, which became a reason In her cultural separation from her atheist husband who has the charm of modernity and the art of tact, which made him an official spokesman for the infidel pronounces what God hates in the houses of God in the eyes of people .. Then she said:

I am the wife of this atheist educated world Unfortunately, you can imagine how much controversy in my house .. Not even to convince, but to live in peace! And then I wondered who disbelieved! Here is a good sentence for the great writer Anis Mansour "If you will believe everything you read .. Do not read!" I will add to that "If you believe everything you hear .. Do not hear .. Do not be impressed by the good appearance and fluency of the talk .. Do not lie to see the glass of someone's glasses!"
