An acquaintance wrote that this as their status on Facebook and it 1000% is how I and many other. American Muslims feel on the matter:

“So in the past two weeks two major decisions came out of the SCOTUS. One stated that Muslim women can not be prevented from being hired based on wearing the headscarf and the other allowing same-sex couples to marry. On the surface, these may seem like two totally unrelated issues, but if you look closer they both reinforce the idea of “Liberty and justice for all”.
We live in a country where, unless you live in a bubble, you will meet and interact with people of all different races, religions, ethnicities, political viewpoint and sexual orientation. You might not agree with or like their race, religion, ethnicity, political viewpoint or sexual orientation, BUT you must learn to live with them, respect them, and treat them kindly.
As a Muslim, I am taught to “enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil”, but I’m also taught not to oppress anyone. I’m also taught different ways to go about forbidding what is evil. The least of which is by opposing what is being done in my heart. Alcohol, stealing, pre-marital relations - these are all against many peoples’ religions, but you don’t see us going around attacking people based on their choice to do those things.
So just because I support the law of the land, and love my friends no matter what choices they make in life, that doesn’t mean I condone those choices for myself or my family. Every family has a God and SCOTUS given right to choose what is best for them as long as no one is being harmed.
So, I pray that Allah joins our hearts here in this world and in the next. Much love and respect to everyone”
