by Fareed Ahmad What happened on 9/11 is something that all Muslims will condemn forever, and we will continue to pray that God saves humanity from terrorists. However, no one should be confused that Islam is a religion of terror. The wars fought during the time of the Prophet Muhammad were defensive, in accordance with the Qur’anic teaching: “Permission to fight is granted to those against whom war is made, because they have been wronged, and Allah indeed has power… Read more

by Irtiza Khaled  18 years ago today, I woke up to the noise and chatter of the television in our family room at home.
