Don’t know Much about Islam? You Aren’t Alone

Do you think a lot of Americans feel this way?

Anti-Muslim Posters in NYC Paid for by Pamela Geller, an anti- Muslim blogger, who opposed the Muslim American Society from building a center. News clip. Is this fair?

Terrorists? Where do we get this “terrorist” view of Islam from?

Most Muslims are Not Extremists

Why Do Many Middle Easterners Dislike the U.S.? Where do they get their perceptions of us?

Our Extremists Give us a Bad Reputation too.

Islam Reading Read the Islam Handout. Add Islam to your Middle East Religions Chart.

Review

Practices and Rituals Pray 5 times a day. Give alms (charity.) Fast During Ramadan. Pilgrimage to Mecca (Hajj.) Coverings for women. Dietary laws, no pork or alcohol.

Key Beliefs Live according to Allah’s guidance. Salvation as a reward/Damnation as a punishment.

Hijab or Covering for Women Women dress modestly to be judged by their character, not their looks. Many women feel that it empowers them not oppresses them.
