Salaam Alaaykoum

I was watching this show on tv, don't remember the name anymore, anyways..It was about islam and some people would go out on the streets and ask people what is the first thing that comes up in their minds when they hear ISLAM.

The answers where quite shocking, not once did i hear a postive comment instead most of the people answered with this: ...Terrorists, Scared, Osama Bin Laden, Bombs etc:uhwhat yaayks is this the view non-muslims have about islam.

Seriously what do you all think when you hear the name islam?:?

w.salaam

however ,i do wish that others understood us better, and we could relate to other faiths better....as glo said :)

well ofcourse most muslims would think its beautiful, peaceful..etc ofcourrse. But it would be nice to hear from the non muslims what they thought the first time they heard of islam.

Well, I've said my bit ...

But i guess that most non-Muslims in this forum have a certain openness/tolerance/interest in Islam - otherwise they wouldn't be here in the first place. I don't think you'll get a view representative of the general population.

Consider though, how Muslim people may appear to the non-Muslim eye.
I have said before (in another thread) that I find my Muslim neighbours very distant and cool.
In fact my perception of Muslim people has changed considerably since I have found this forum.
I may not always agree with people's views - in fact I find some things I read downright outrageous (:rollseyes ) ... but at least I am learning where people are coming from. :)

Blessings.
