Reminds me of the painting "Girl with a Pearl Earring" by Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer. She is a Muslim Chinese food vendor in Xian China

This Muslim school was built in the early 1900s and was one of the oldest Muslim schools in Singapore. It has since been demolished to make way for modern progress. These school girls were spending the last few days in their old school playing a skipping rope game.

Is veiling a oppression or a liberation for women. What do you think?

The religious tension in Myanamar between Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims is linked to religious extremist group led by monks. They claim to be the defenders of the Burmese race. A law from 1982 denied the Rohingya people of their Burmese citizenship, thereby removing their freedom of movement, and access to education. It also allows the arbitrary confiscation of their property and lands.The UN has described the Rohingya as one of the most persecuted minorities in the world.

Continuation of my Fashionable Fit & Fabulous Event Coverage Photo Shoot. The models all lined up to walk the runway! The models were modeling Arab Muslim clothing lines and head scarf styles. The concept was that you can do anything with your scarfs and look beautiful and at the same time be trendy with outfits and accessories. The women represented being vibrant, bold and fashionable.

For those who don't know what the scarf on the head is for Muslims it is called a "HIjaab". Here is a link where you can learn more about it: www.islamswomen.com/hijab/hijab_suppression_or_liberation... or visit en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijab

One of the doorways that showcases the Arabic architecture within the Albaicín. No visit to the south of Spain is complete until you have visited one of Andalusia’s most unique neighborhoods, the charming Arabic quarter filled with Muslim influence. The Albaicín, is located in the city of Granada, across the Darro River from the Alhambra fortress and palace. This Moorish “barrio” is just one of the many treasures of traveling through Andalusia and southern Spain.

Happy Eid Mumarak friends,,, Mosque

Highland Park is a city within the city limits of Detroit proper. In addition to being home to Henry Ford's first assembly plant (now defunct and abandoned), it is also home to a sizable, mostly African-American, Sunni Muslim community.

 

I was inducted into that community when my family converted to Sunni Islam when I was around 8-years-old.

 

Qasim was associated with the community in Highland Park. He is also the director of Mooz-Lem: The Movie - a locally-filmed movie that is still in development . It features Danny Glover, Nia Long and quite a few other impressively notable Hollywood cast members.

 

Its good to see a member of my old Ummah doing his thing. Neither of us could remember if we knew each other growing up. We do both know a young man named Kareem. I happened to bump into Kareem and Qasim a couple of weeks back and they were gracious enough to let me make a couple of frames of them (Kareem, you're next).

 

That said, I'm no longer a member of the Highland Park Islamic community. In fact, I've removed myself from the larger intellectual community of religious believers altogether.

 

I've always had a distrinct aversion to fanticiful thinking - no matter how reassuring and comforting. When I was in 1st grade, before my family converted to islam, a classmate opened a bag of chips, crushed them in his hand, turned toward me, started to wiggle his backside and sing an impromptu schoolyard nursery rhyme/taunt:

 

"I've got more! I've got more!..."

 

I remember calmly looking at him, shaking my head and saying,

 

"No you don't. They are just in smaller peices..."

 

He broke into tears and tried to fight me.

 

Sorry, kiddo. But the facts are facts.

 

Though I was devout through my high school years (at Highland Park High School, I'd stop in the middle of Mr. Wojinowski's Chem class to make the afternoon iteration of the 5 daily prayers required of Muslims), the religious explanations for how reality worked became exponentially less convincing with each passing year; and with each passing grade in biology, geology, and history.

 

The religious explanation simply did not accord with the facts. As much comfort, solace, and certitude my religious faith had provided me in trying circumstances, I found myself increasing unable to abide them.

 

Sorry, kiddo. But the facts are the facts.

 

By my second year of college I was more or less bereft of all superstitious belief.

 

I'm not sure what the tone of Qasim's finished movie will be. It's my understanding that the main character has a crisis of faith.

 

If nothing else, I hope that his movie will encourage people to take another look at their bag of potato chips.

Actually, not the back, it's the front. I didn't see too many veils like this. Taken in Deir ez Zuhr, Syria (near the Iraqi border.)

Child begs

Alas he cannot play

On the streets they stay

Bad days are here just

Won't go away ...

Sono musulmana, e non sono una terrorista!

Hand written Quran in lahore museum

As a photographer

humble to his art

I showcase the poor

mans f****d fate

an accidental birth

outside God's house

he begs waits ..

uneducated

unvaccinated

he will never be

allowed to enter

the Holy Gate

Islam encourage s beggary

give him some money buy

a house in Heavens

real estate ..

buy camels goats dumba

for Eid Al Adha .

the crippled beggar

none will rehabilitate

 

humanity merged with hypocrisy

as a poet I state ...who cares what he ate

dreams are not born on an empty

stomach or an empty tin plate ..

 

Allah Ho Akbar

Muslims love killing Muslims

bombs detonate ...

be it a Shia Sufi Ahmediya Hazara

we wake up very late ...blind emotions

in oxymoron haste ..

man his journey on garbage land

of waste....irony and distaste
