    One of the fastest growing religion in the world! More reverts in the West than anywhere else

    Thanks PBS for discussing Islam. I encourage everyone with questions to read the Koran, you don’t need to ask anyone, the holy book has all the answers.

    Can a woman freely wear robe and hijab/niqab in Hawaii or do they get accused of being oppressed by a man and get discriminated?

      There are positive and negative people everywhere. Just as you will come across bitter people in Alaska or New Jersey regardless of your fiath, you will anywhere.

    Ass wr wb, Why do Hawaii Populations fell no avaid if It will come to Tsunamy ( I don't hope it)?. Brcause Hawai'i have little Archipelago. Thank you. N. B. :Because Tsunamies came from God of Muhammad Ali ( WBC). I wish Hawai'i always remember God of Muhammad Ali .

    Thank goodness Islam has things like Taqiya. You aren't fooling anyone. But hey, take advantage of the Aloha spirit and you can make Hawaii just like France, where I came from. And anyone should go to Paris, especially train stations, and see how awesome it is.

      Hawaii is different from the Mainland as well as around the world, Hawaii is the only place I know where people from different race and religion can come together and coexist with one another...however...the golden rule in Hawaii is to respect the local and the culture, when people get out of line, Polynesians are quick to them in their place.

      Islam calls its followers to have Taqwa (which is God consciousness) abstaining from what God prohibitted & doing what Allah ordered us to do. Taqiyah is what Shia use and consider 9/10s of their religion. Taqiyah is basicaly lying and hiding your true beliefs.

      Hawaii is part of the United States... So, when you are in Hawaii, please observe AMERICAN CUSTOMS... Be a patriotic American if you are a US citizen; and if you are a visitor, please show great deals of respects to AMERICAN way of life

      Assalamualaikum, native of hawaiian are part of Malay archipelago that spreading from Madagascar up to hawaii islands. Islam will bring us back to straight faith before the columbus came to East. King of hawaii said to the Thailand king that he is Malay origins. We in Muslim Malay are proud to see you back to fitrah. Islam is for all not for Arabs or malaya. Islam is for all mankind.
