And what makes you think we don’t? Muslims in America contribute in many other ways. By merely sending our kids to public schools, even if it exposes them to ridicule and hate, we are bringing the true message is Islam to this country. That is our mujaheda. Do you think they will learn anything good about Islam if they simply follow the news? Every other day we are fighting for masajids, madaris, cemetaries, islamic schools, etc., all within the framework of law. Do you think NYC schools simply decided to declare muslim holidays overnight? A lot of Muslims worked for it.

I don’t know about others, but I’ve always welcomed criticism of US policy. In fact, if you are American, it is your duty to question and criticize it. But like I said before US is bigger than its Presidents and its policies. And the idea of America, you have to know it to appreciate it.

I was not saying efforts are not being done … I meant that efforts to get something done for Muslims and for Blacks far outweighs efforts for others because we see ourselves as people lobbying and asking from the powers above rather than trying to become the powers above by integrating in to the power structure … We seem to do things that are helping us … But we do not do enough to help others … Or the wider community.
