Salams,

I just felt like clarifying the issue, as most people equate non-Muslims with non-believers/rejecters of truth/dirty infidels

. I kind of got a sort of harsh vibe from the previous posts and felt that I should point out that Islam sees things far more complexly than a lot of other faiths. In other words, we don't pain everyone with the same brush...we try and understand why they are non-Muslim, etc. Hopefully this will prevent some of the inevitable issues that arise when discussing such topics. I hope she checks out the link, as Sh. Nuh Ha Mim Keller, being an actual scholar, covers this topic in far more depth and with far more clarity and authority than I.

Wa Salam,

Tempest Desh
