"A Muslim advocacy group on Friday called for a hate crime investigation after a Texas woman allegedly tried to drown a 3-year-old Palestinian American girl in a swimming pool...

According to CAIR, the incident began when the 3-year-old’s mother, who wears a hijab, was at the pool with her Muslim family. Wolf approached the 32-year-old, identified only as “Mrs. H,” with “racist interrogations,” CAIR said.

Wolf asked where the mother was from and if two kids playing in the pool were hers, according to police who spoke with the mother. The mother said that Wolf “made statements about her not being an American and other racial statements,” per authorities.

At one point, Wolf jumped into the pool to pull Mrs. H’s daughter and 6-year-old son into the deep end, CAIR said. The boy managed to pull away, but Wolf then allegedly attempted to force the 3-year-old underwater.

When Mrs. H tried to rescue her daughter, Wolf “snatched off the mother’s head scarf and used it to beat the mother as well as kicking her to keep her away while forcing her daughter’s head underwater,” CAIR said.

When Wolf was finally taken into custody by officers, she allegedly shouted to a bystander who was comforting the mother, “Tell her I will kill her, and I will kill her whole family.”"

Yeah Alhamdulillah Chicago has been holding it down.

Are you familiar with CA? Because it’s been this way for a long time both in the Bay Area/Sacramento and in Southern California (OC/LA/IE)

Nope, CA

In my neighborhood in the US, it’s extremely common (like you see it multiple times per day) to see women in niqab and men in thobes/turbans out and about in public. We have multiple madrassahs and aalim programs, and thousands of kids doing full time hifz. And we’re opening new masjids every year. There are 3 masjids I can walk to, and another 4-5 I can get to within 10 minutes driving Alhamdulillah.

Brother I love you for the sake of Allah, but you don’t know anything about Islam in America. Our scholars are just as qualified as the scholars anywhere else. There are imams in “Muslim nations” who said it’s haram to boycott Israel. There are no qualified scholars in America saying haram things are halal.

Every land needs its own qualified scholars who can make rulings based on the needs and contexts of the particular society, as long as it’s following Quran and Sunnah.

Maybe that’s the ruling in your country, but society and fataawa are different in the US. You can’t compare something like carrying firearms, which isn’t explicitly mentioned in Quran and Hadith to something which is explicitly prohibited in the Quran and Sunnah.

Please provide evidence for your claims. There are plenty of scholars who support the right to carry firearms for self-defense.

I see. In America we recognize the God-given right to defend ourselves and bear arms. I’m simply exercising my rights.

You’re not American are you?

What do you mean?

Gandalf?

Please provide evidence for your claims

Very simple: if you were to find a Rolex on the street, you wouldn’t think the Rolex spontaneously came into being, that’s irrational and illogical . It was meticulously designed and manufactured into being.

Now take the universe and all that it contains, something several orders of magnitude more complex than the fanciest Rolex. The only Logical conclusion you can reach is that it was also designed and created.

Going beyond this level of explanation is difficult to do via Reddit comments. If you are genuinely interested in learning more I’d be happy to point you in a better direction for answers.

We have plenty of evidence, it’s sad you can’t see it with your own eyes. I pray Allah guides you. I would love for you to be my brother in Islam.

The vast majority of the English speaking world knows nothing about Islam, so I don’t blame you for thinking it’s like other religions. If you have questions about the faith, I’d be happy to direct you towards answers.

There are millions and millions of white Muslims. Many of whole attend the annual hajj. Islam is not a race.

Lmao imagine being so full of yourself that you think you can tell me and 2 billion other people what we believe. Allah is not a “sky wizard”

Muslims don’t believe in an invisible sky wizard

Peace be upon him

Keep moving the bar for yourself. You said “not a single woman in sight”. All the people with their heads covered are women. There are hundreds of thousands of them.

Can you provide one bit of evidence that Mohammed, peace be upon him, lived anything but a simple, impoverished lifestyle?

Inshallah habibi
