Islam in Iran and among Shiites inIslam in Iran and among Shiites in Iraq is a fake Islam that is not true because it is political and they are a minority. The true Islam is what the Qur’an and the Prophet Muhammad brought. Iraq is a fake Islam that is not true
Thank you Rola and Peter ❤️ I’m a Muslim woman raised in Australia, I was blessed to wear hijab at 45 and couldn’t care less how people judge me, my body My choice ❤️
Mashallah, may Allah strengthen you and reward you for this. Well done 😊
@@mmconceicao Amin, thank you sister 💕
MashaAllah 😇
As Muslim we must follow what ever Allah SWT command us and we don’t care what the people says.
Most Arab women don't want kids by black men
Im a Catholic. Growing up my grandmother & my mom always wore head coverings before entering the church or at prayers even at prayers at home.
We as Christians we say “peace be with u” & the listener(s) reply “also be with u”
“Salaam aleikum, aleikum salaam”
Wa alaikumussalam❣️
Faanēngaaw xivxiixxi Head Coverings before entering The Church.....!
Does 'God' reside only in Church and on Sundays ?
Showing respect to Church and IGNORING your Creator.....the rest of the time ?
Perhaps you will take time to contemplate.
The Orthodox the same. I've always covered my head in church. We say "Mir Vsiem" (Peace be with you) and the reply "I dukhovy tvoiemu(" And with your spirit.).
@@ghiaspiracha302 we do not force them if they chose not to though. But we do have Christians who do cover their heads everyday.
@@harrietharlow9929 practically the same.
I think it's very important to not confuse the practices of a culture with what Islam teaches. Islam teaches respect of women. Most people who make assumptions about Islam have never even read the Quran. There are English translations of Quran. Many Islamic countries following Islam integrate cultural attitudes and beliefs with religion. This mix of culture and religion really distorts the true teachings of Islam. This integration of cultural practices happens in all religions, not just Islam.
Thank you so much for clarifying this, God bless you 💖 Asalamuwalaikum
@@YasMohamed7 Walaikum Salam, your welcome sister
@Benjamin Iota will you kindly give me the location in the Quran of this script? Thanks for your help in this matter.
@Benjamin Iota I ask you for the hadith in which you state. If it is not written in the Quran Benjamin and you cannot give me exact genuine hadith I believe you should read the Quran and become educated in what is written. Again, cultural influence does not teach truth.
@Benjamin Iota you evade my questions, first emplying that there are both Quran and Hadith proof, then only hadith, but you still give no proof, therefore I end this conversation.
Peter you are so respectful for asking first, "hand on heart."
I really hope this guy as Protestants as are most Americans and Shias get to know eachother other and remove misconceptions between them. This brave women being proud muslim women and being Shia is very refreshing. Also Sunni Propaganda machine and Malign influence in American Media and Government Institution must be removed for Shias and Christians to come to terms.
Hes so respectful he asks the lady if people walking into a coffee shop are terrorists like wtf? Are you serious?
@@kingcobra3854 I already answered you in another comment but will do it here as well. Peter asked it that way to show how it’s totally illogical thinking that all Muslims are terrorist, which a lot of people do think. You can even see it in the comments here
I think Religion divides people of different religious beliefs after all we all are humans if you take blood from muslim person or Christian Person or any other Religions person its should be red if you promote humanity than other religions then you become a new religion world become more complicated we can not deal with every person so leave it and enjoy openly earn money enjoy sleep repeat 🔁
@@nataliasantenello I agree totally with you but let’s just say it came out wrong when Peter made that comment and not how it was intended I guess! I like Peter so will give him the benefit of any doubt here! 😬
"Nobody cares who you or what you are as long as you are a decent human being" 4:35 That is the attitude we all need to live by !!
Unfortunately religions divide, delude and
Control people. Amen.
@@StephanoHamez Is it religion or race that devides people more?.
In Islam we believe and it is those who fear and follow the commandments of Allah that are the best not every one. And the hijab is a must
you forget the verse before it.
@@crusadeprince attention seeking
07:30 I see what you’re saying but actually, in Islam the mother is always the most important element of the family, not just in Ramadan 😀
And the most loved too
In Islam the saying goes that the gates of Heaven are at the mothers feet … we only get one, gotta love em while they are around!!!
@Benjamin Iota also the respect only extends to “their” mothers not mother’s generally.
@Benjamin Iota I think you do not understand the boundaries and obligations. in Islam having 4 wives is a limitation, meaning you can have a maximum of 4. different from other religions where there is no law on polygamy which means you can marry as many wives as you want. Isn't it clear in the verse that it is permissible to have 4 wives as long as you are able and have a reason behind it all, not only economically and physically but also you must have permission from the first wife, if you reason only because lust is indeed permitted by your wife? look at the history of the world or even the current state of the world, many have many wives and even dozens of wives. What do you think? I think this is a simple and very logical answer
@Benjamin Iota I think the answer is clear. you can look for other answers on the internet without malice and hatred in your heart
I was so impressed with Rola's commentary. How interesting to hear such a bright, articulate woman talking about her life as a Muslim woman. A pattern is emerging with all of Peter's interviews: we all have so much in common. I hope this series helps dispel the fear and negativity towards Muslims in this country.
She is liberal so she abandoned her faith. Islam religion is hostile towards Christianity if you read Muslim book called the Quran. 109 verses that preaches violence in name of Islam.
@@jaysdangerroom She has not abandoned her faith. She prays Five times a day. And Muslims are living peacefully in a Christian majority country.

A little comment on your closing remarks. You didn't give us an angle "into islam", but into the muslim community. This often gets confused and can become quite problematic (maybe not in this case).
You're right. Thanks for the correction.
@@PeterSantenello
Asalamuwalaikum Peter,
I’d say there isn’t a way to show the Muslim community, but to do it the way you have and are doing a great job of. I’d say this is the viewpoint of this sisters lifestyle, and a few opinions, that’s it.
We come from all walks of life alhamdullilah, I’m English, for instance.
Come to the Uk, I’d be happy to share my perspective on my religion InshaAllah (not my desires) as an English revert, and how all the things this sister was chasing (like she mentioned, acceptance from society in the way she dresses and looks etc) are (some of) the very things that drove me to Islam ☺️ alhamdullilah.
Also Arabs are minority among Muslims e.g India has one of the biggest Muslim population in the world, close to 200 million. For a thousand years before 19th century, majority of Muslim rulers were non Arabs and mostly of Turkic / central Asian origin. It’s a global religion and cannot be confined to a particular race, ethnicity or geography.
Exactly! I’d love to see some black, white and desi Muslims.. ect on here. There is a major difference between culture and religion.
So what if India is claimed to have the highest muslim population or many leaders were non-arabs? You're forgetting about different sects and fiqahs
True. Biggest Muslim country in the world is Indonesia (biggest 4th most population in the world, after China, India, and United States). 86.7% of the population is Muslim (273 million population).
And it's still got a problem with serious extremist
@@SimonZimmermann82 I know. That's why I love living in Connecticut. Southern states and Midwest states still full of white extremists.
She represents what I would call a “conservative liberal”.
She is liberal for Muslim standards
Conservative for Western standards.
Islam is like 4th subject for them
Welcome to Michigan!!!! I am so glad you chose to come here and feature the Muslim culture. I feel Muslims and Islam gets a horribly bad rap because of the media and crimes that are committed in the name of Islam. Muslims are very peaceful people. I have always lived within a half hour of Dearborn and have never felt afraid.
Not just the media. Many Muslim immigrants don’t assimilate into European society. There’s a difference being a Muslim in the Muslim world. Rola tried to explain best without any biases which I like. Many Muslims don’t do this and aré deniers to the outsiders and what I mean by that non-muslims
@@mountaindew3201 yea you want us to get christians name like the jews back then.
@Lilman Yellow there are also people who claim to be Christian that do the same thing and worse. People who behave in the manner in the name of their religion are not true followers of said religion.
@Farhan Ibn Mahmud Women can not refuse sex from her husband? I am Assyrian Orthodox Christian from Alberta, Canada and women are as allowed to refuse sexual activity. Men are not in control of that. That is complete patriarchy, not religion. We are spiritual being and deserve respect as humans, especially when it comes to physical intimacy. What if the husband is sexually aggressive or overly sexual. What if she is on her menstrual cycle? That is considered unholy. Also certain intimate acts are prohibited in Islam, yet some Muslim men engage in this. I have studied Islam and I know many Muslims, many, men and women do not follow their faith background. Everyone c as n practice what they choose but realize many religions are based on patriarchy
I lived in Dearborn in the early 80s and my landlord was a wonderful Muslim man. Every Friday night my landlord's daughter would knock on the door and hand me a plate piled high with wonderful Lebanese food. The part of Dearborn where I lived was heavily Muslim and I always felt very safe there. If I was ever to return to Michigan, I would consider moving there again.
Hey, my home town! I frequent the bakery/ restaurant where you began the video.
I am an heating and cooling service technician and have ran service calls in and around Greater Detroit/ suburbs etc for the last 27 years.
I have had the unique opportunity to get up close and personal going into people's, homes, businesses etc, I have always been treated with respect and find that they are very heartwarming people. Of course there are exceptions to the rule in every society, culture etc. I have always looked at person's character to determine the exchange of respect, not nationality, culture etc. Great video series and glad your having a good time here.
Amazing
👍👍👍
Thank you for your message. It was so well put & what you shared is so important for us to remember & to help others realize if they haven't done so yet. Thanks again.
That sums it up for me "Nobody cares what you are or who you are as long as your a decent human being" Its really NOT hard to just BE NICE to one another. JUST BE NICE
The problem is US culture has become so divisive. Too much media making $$$ spewing out poison every day to get people riled up.
I really hope this guy as Protestants as are most Americans and Shias get to know eachother other and remove misconceptions between them.

Also Sunni Propaganda machine and Malign influence in American Media and Government Institution must be removed for Shias and Christians to come to terms.
If only this was true, sadly their is people out there who'll be jealous of you living an overall better and cleaner life than them, especially when it comes too Muslims
@@aa-xv7tb I will never understand the reason people hate. We are all humans we are all here to live our lives how we want and if your a good person then that is all that really matters to me. I don't give two red nickels about your race, where your from or anything else if you are kind to me I am going to be kind to you. End of Story for me
@@RJSAMCRO People hate because humans are tribal beings and it's instinctive to fear the unknown. Unknown for many 1000s of years has been dangerous. I think the more we interact with other cultures the better we will get. Especially if we teach our children to be better to others than we are.
I am a Muslim and I am ashamed to say that many of us portray Islam in the worst possible way though our actions. If we practiced the right way, Islam wouldn’t be so misunderstood.
She said she feels excluded from going into the mosque without a head scarf but her being a Muslim she knows you can’t pray or go into a mosque without being covered which didn’t make sense to me
She is a liberated Muslim woman so don't expect much Islamic knowledge
She didn't expect him wanting to go to a mosque?
@@jeffkardosjr.3825
A scarf can be with her either in her car on bag
English isnt her first language maybe she didnt know what he meant because that comment was confusing
@UC3pnRrpSPSDJNTCfr2kC84g Why? Because I simply speculate that she didn't intend to go to a mosque?
What's idiotic about that?

It is so refreshing to watch these videos. Thank you Peter. You are doing a good public service for everyone.
We love that you show many of the nuances of a religion & a culture. Years ago when I was in college I had the opportunity to become friends with some wonderful people from the middle east. I knew that the news only showed one side. Thirty years later I have current friends who only know that one side from the news. I try to help them understand the nuances, the variety & the beauty that they will never see in the news. So glad I now have your videos to refer them to! Thank you! We discovered you a few months ago during the Hasidic series. We've enjoyed all your videos & greatly look forward to them each week. P.S. I have so many questions about the shisha & hope to be able about it if you do a live Q & A at the end of the series. 😊🧡

What a wonderful woman. God bless her for opening up for us and providing insight into the muslim community. I listen to this as I sip on Kuwaiti tea, btw!
So proud of this woman. Even in my country, indonesia, a muslim majority country, there are many people who dont pray five times a day. And this woman lives in non-muslim majority country and still pray 5 times a day. What a person
People who dont pray five times a day are not muslims.

Hi how are you pretty 😀
This channel should be shown in schools. To help dispel some of the preconceived
impressions we have of different cultures. Even for the teachers.
Especially for the teachers
I would not go that far as he said at one point that the lady with full niqab may have no tolerance toward a jew compaired to a non hijab waring muslim women. That is just judging someone based on their clothing mixed with the maine steam media's false naratives, not to mention when he compaired people saying Allahu Akbar to Hitler using swastika.
You or anybody shouldn't need help to dispel "preconceived" impressions. Average Intelligent human beings learn themselves from self observations and experience rather than being dictated "preconceived" mindset.
Well agreed doll, people in USA are so ignorant
@@julieshelley9251 Thank You, we try
I think it says more about a person if they judge someone for their attire than anything.
I respect this sister and was just thinking how she was so respectful of others and their choice and speaking up for the Muslims, until the niqab comment.
This was so sad to hear. For me, my niqab helps keep me balanced internally alhamdullilah. It makes me content with who I am and not feel like I have to seek the approval of others. It make me constantly God conscious and aware of my actions. A reminder that I represent Allah swt and His religion before myself; pushing my own vanity to the side and also protecting myself. Each to their own, of course.
Those of my niqabi friends are beautiful, calm, peaceful, kind individuals - and if you ever have the chance of getting to know a niqabi, you’ll see for yourself. But that’s the beauty, you only get to get to know us under the right circumstance (for us)
Please understand what this sisters said is her own opinion and she’s clearly been exposed to the cultural viewpoint of Islam as opposed to the Authentic Teachings.
Here’s to hoping people are learning to think for themselves and look beyond what’s in front of them 🤲🏼✌🏼
Your body, your choice. But some lunatics force the teachings on others
Yes. Her opinion about wearing niqab is her personal opinion and doesn't reflect the true teachings of Islam. There are many Muslims who do not believe in the teachings of Prophet Muhammad or think his teachings had been misinterpreted etc..etc. It all comes down to your Imaan. If you really believe in Allah and the prophets, you can always make Do'a and ask that Allah will guide you in the right path. Allah gives us brain to allow us to think. I pray that she will come back to the right path one day... inshaa Allah.
Although Christian, I wear niqab (long story) and while all women, Muslimahs and non, are free to decide for themselves. I feel that many just don't see the blessings in wearing niqab, which is sad. I feel very blessed when wearing it, and as a recluse by nature, I love that it allows me to maintain purdah.
@@harrietharlow9929 👍🏻 I'm glad that CORONA did a good job with the Mask thing otherwise they wouldn't have respected the niqab / veil
Exactly im non-hijabi and I dont like what she said about niqabis. If women want to wear it thats their choice
you know what I love about this Chanel you feel like youre there experiencing it with him!

I learn more from your stories than anything I see on the news. Thank you!
Every religion has its own limits and values . But the people , followoing that religion are practising according to their wish and will . Means some of them respect the values 100%some 90%some45% . So we cant say anything about any religion just by meeting the people . We have to study that religion personally too .
@Benjamin Iota Allah says that whoever will not accept him . Then he will give punihsment to him . He does not specify any particular religion .
@Benjamin Iota its your view about islam . U di'nt read quran . Thats why u dont know many things .
@Benjamin Iota Allah did not order us to kill jews or chtistians for no reason . Allah orders us to be kind with everybody .
@Benjamin Iota if u beleive in that then u should be a muslim otherwise u should not be worried about the beleives of islam . Christians also say that no one will succeed in the next life until they accept jesus as son of god and all that . So now it is also a negative part of christianity??? What would u say on this
@Benjamin Iota then u should listen to your heart . I hope Allah give u (,as well as me ) hidayat .
Another great video, Peter! Rola seems like a lovely lady and I so appreciated her views on being Muslim in America. This series could do so much to unite Muslims and Christians if they would just choose to watch with an open heart. I'm sharing these videos with my 71 year old white, gay, conservative republican Trump loving friend who lives in Texas and who thinks all Muslims are terrorists. I've been arguing with him about his views for years so I hope he'll get himself educated and open up his closed mind by watching your videos.

I am enjoying these series. Sayings and symbols are very dependent on context. Rola seems very nice and level headed, I'd be happy to have a coffee (or a soda pop as well don't do coffee either).
Edit: Seeing tbe Iron Sheik was cool. I saw a fight or two of his.
Just for clarification: Hijab is not a choice according to the Quran.
As a muslim: yes. Unfortunately people only hear want they want to hear.
Yeah it's a must, only certain people can see woman without hijab like her husband and her children.. But yeah, back again it's private matter if they want to wear hijab or not... I just hope they will stop advertise as if it's okay to not wear hijab....
From someone who can't change her profile pict....
You are all wrong. And uneducated/ brainwashed.
“the Hijab concerns only the wives of the Prophet and meets a circumstantial requirement in order to respect the private life of the Prophet. Besides, it does not represent, in any way, a particular model of clothing. The essence of this requirement aimed, mainly, to educate Arabs of that time to respect the privacy of people and good manners.
It is therefore quite clear that the term Hijab does not absolutely refer to the meaning given nowadays as the scarf that should cover the head. The Hijab has nothing to do with any Islamic female dress. It is rather a symbol of separation between public life and private life at the time of the Prophet. It aimed to make of the prophet's wives Mothers of the Believers.”
There’s ZERO verse in Koran referring to Hejab or scarf on head. The only scarf translation talks about covering chests and neck referring to specific clothing which Arabian women used to wear while NOT covering their bust!
The entire hejab fiasco which has cost islam plenty of converts and has turned it into a butt of jokes in modern times is due to uneducated people like the lot of you who have fallen for wrong translations and propaganda.
Yes but hijab is a general word. Hijab is mandatory but the headscarf is a version of a hijab. Hijab is the same thing as modesty. Maybe you don’t wear headscarf. But are modest in a different way
@@alitubealt6185 no. Read my comment again. Covering hair for women is NOT mandatory according to Koran! Stop w your backward uneducated traditional propaganda. Tradition isn’t a law. It is not a religious mandate. Educate yourself. I posted the scholarly view.
Love this video. Rola needs her own channel!
Thanks for this! I lived in East Dearborn in the late 70's when the transition from German , Italian, and Polish communities to Arab speakers occurred, To this day, now in Chicago which is a strong Spanish-as-a-second-language community, I speak Arabic. It is amazing. Amazing crossing cultural, and linguistic lines.
I guess I am a product of Detroit where we had SO many nationalities intersect all at one time.
How cool is that?
Too cool !
Thank you for sharing a beautiful picture of Detroit!!
very interesting episode as usual Peter !, I really like your guest attitude she's very warm and intelligent too :)
Thanks for sharing👍 Great job
So cool! I grew up in Dearborn. There is definitely a Dearborn stereotype of a particular type of Muslim. I personally take every person as they are, regardless.
As a mail carrier in east Dearborn and living in west Dearborn I see the spectrum.
I’ve only been to Dearborn once, and feel in love with the culture there!!! If you get a chance, The Henry Ford Museum is AMAZING!!
I lived in Dearborn in the 1980s and loved it. If I ever move back toi the Detroit area, Dearborn would be at the top of the list for a neighborhood to move back to.
Thank you for this insightful video Peter. Rola and her hubby are great Americans!
The winters are great in Florida but a part of my heart always remains in Dearborn! I loved seeing the drive through east and west Dearborn and down neighborhood streets and the walk through Ford Field.
The social life of meeting friends in cafes, pastry shops and restaurants in a non drinking culture is really nice.
i truly enjoyed listening to Rola and you. What an intelligent and fun conversation.
Another fantastic video - Thank You for the education
I like the video and keep up the great work love from the UK 🇬🇧
Interesting and refreshing thank you
You always amaze me with your clips and tours around the world.
Please, I want to see you in Saudi Arabia again.
Thank you for your honesty and professionalism. May God reward you for the good
Good video nice dialog!
Makes me want to visit deerborn.
I moved to Dearborn Heights 11 years ago from Oakland County, Michigan and she is spot on about this area being a good example of why immigration is good for America. I saw very quickly that we would not have to worry about empty storefronts and vacant houses like other areas who suffer during economic downturns. Even if a business doesn’t last long, someone else is quick to move in and give it a go with their ideas. And restaurants are thriving in this area when a lot of other places are suffering.
I really hope this guy as Protestants as are most Americans and Shias get to know eachother other and remove misconceptions between them. This brave women being proud muslim women and being Shia is very refreshing. Also Sunni Propaganda machine and Malign influence in American Media and Government Institution must be removed for Shias and Christians to come to terms.
@@bigDaddy-lx9sn America isn't a theocracy like certain Muslim countries. Religion doesn't play as big a role in US government because of the separation of church and state. People should get to know each other to prevent so many misunderstandings I agree.
I agree with you 100%! We moved to Dearborn from Wyandotte a month ago and we love it and the people!

Welcome!
I lived in Dearborn for 15 years, went in a trip to LA with my friends...HATED IT, couldn't wait to get back to Dearborn lol
Downtown LA is nasty asf!
Yea but this doesn’t jive with the whole ‘immigrants are taking all our jobs’ narrative … in the case of Muslims/Arabs in the US, often times they are the ones opening and expanding businesses, creating jobs …
Thanks so much to you both for this episode 🫶🙏🫶
I was born and raised in Arkansas, as a Christian. I have pale skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes. I reverted to Islam in 2014. I believe the women here who are wearing any form of hijab are so stingy and admirable. I've always been too afraid to cover in public because it would INCREASE attention/looks, plus I'm afraid of judgements or harsh reactions, and I really don't want to be bothered with any of that.
I practice my religion in private, staying away from mosques and being wary of the communities from other countries because of the encroachment of their cultures, and their own forms of judgements I experienced.
Mashallah. I have it quite exactly like you. I’m a convert in Eastern Europe since 8 years.
Love this channel Peter. Great content as always..xxoo from Philly
Great interview as usual. AND you picked a great day too. That weather looked photoshopped it was so gorgeous...
Thank you for sharing. Hearing her side of things was eye-opening. Looking forward to the next episode.
I'm eyeing that tabooleh and drooling. It looked so good. One of my favorites. Thank you Rola and Donald for your candor. ❤️
I was too. That looked amazing
i dint understand what nationality Donald is
Hey Peter I love ur content. Great to see different point of views. Thanks u are the best.
I find your coverage incredible ly fair and reasonable . thanks for working hard to show orthodox so fairly. No one else that I know of has gotten into satmar!!
I am Muslim from Iran living in Canada, on surface you can not tell I am Muslim, but I am Muslim and follow Islamic law as much as can. I pray five times a day and I think, Islam is a very beautiful religion.
naya shams; why didn’t you stay in your shariah implemented country then since you love it so much? Canada is DA’RUL HARB and its haram to live in da’rul harb countries in Islamic conception!
Masha allah I live in somalia 🇸🇴 and Ilove religion thank you 🥰
i hate all religions, they are bad for humanity , they are bad more times than good, religions make you hurt and kill others, I can prove this point.
WHY... is the Number 5 for the times to 🙏 PRAY?
Mashallah sister
Thank you, Peter, I learn so much from your videos.
Another great video! Thanks!
Love the depth of your interviews
Thank you for your videos Peter, you rock!
Great job, Rola! ❤
Awesome series!
Thank you for your nice and respectful videos!
Love you Peter from Pakistan. Man the stories you share are really informative love ya
If you want non Muslims to learn and respect your religion and we should do the same for others and I'm saying that as a Pakistani Muslim
Excellent video! Thank you for bringing out that no one nationality is bad! We are all human beings and deserving of respect and kindness!
look who is talking🤣🤣🤣🤣
Starting the vlog with elissa’s song was everything
dude, that was my favorite part hahahah
I love Elissa
i found it so disrespectful how they were talking about the woman in niqab that walked by. if you believe in freedom, you should defend every person's right to wear what they want as long as it's not harming anyone. i don't wear the niqab but i wouldn't EVER discriminate against a woman who does. how rude. and stop labelling muslim women as "liberal" or "non-liberal"
💯💯💯💯true...May Allah guide us to the right path
Non Muslims will stick up for Muslims before Muslims like her. She believes she’s liberal who was raised by a liberal. Liberal meaning choosing what they want to follow from Islam and living their life according to their own desires.
@@simplysafiyyah exactly well said sister
I felt the same thing.
Because niqabs are scary and cultural. Orthodox Muslims love taking away other people's freedom but if their criticized it's taking away their rights?
Love you videos you get a whole new look at others peoples lives.
Fascinating insight into the various cultures following Islam, with different interpretations of the faith uniting in the spirit of brother/sisterhood.
Thank you Rola for sharing your thoughts.
Keep spreading brother asking those important questions.
first and foremost one thing i have noticed is that the middle eastern people are less practicing MUSLIMS as compared to other parts of the world.being born as an arab doesn't guarantee that you would be a pious muslim in fact it is quite contrary. Nowadays people including muslims have come up with this MUNDANE logic that "THIS IS WHAT ISLAM MEANS TO THEM". people tend to forget one important thing and that is "IT'S NOT MUSLIMS THAT DEFINE ISLAM, IT IS ISLAM THAT DEFINES MUSLIMS".
Yes I agree from personal experience with Arab and black Muslims i have noticed many do not eat even eat halal forget everything else
Perfectly said.
@Benjamin Iota Vegetarian options, if you live In the UK, US, Canada as an example Halal food is extremely easy too get. There is many halal butcher shops you can buy halal meat from, however you'll regularly see Arabs going too McDonald's and other places like that.
💯💯💯💯💯sureeeee...very true
Well said 👍
Thank you Rola and Peter - these documentaries should be part of the school curriculum. We need more cross-culture open discussions like this. The respect and vulnerability you show eachother is a beautiful and heartwarming thing. Keep making awesome videos and you will continue to make a huge difference ❤
Sis Rola...may Allah ease everything for you,your family.. your friends..your beloved ..🧡 ukhwah from Malaysia
Thanks for sharing!!
Very stimulating and real Thanks
WOW Perfect video again !
It was wonderful hearing Rola explain so much - I'm enjoying this series of the Muslim populations. It is great you're doing this.
Looking forward to the rest of the series Peter. Respect to your interviewees, Muslims are diverse and Arabs have their culture imbued in what is understood as Islam today. Fair enough for the outsider to confuse the 2.
She and her husband are lovely people.😊
I really hope this guy as Protestants as are most Americans and Shias get to know eachother other and remove misconceptions between them. This brave women being proud muslim women and being Shia is very refreshing. Also Sunni Propaganda machine and Malign influence in American Media and Government Institution must be removed for Shias and Christians to come to terms.
Hi how are you 😀
Thank you for presenting Arab Muslims Americas in this real diverse way. Rula is very articulate and deep. My respect to both of you.
You are bringing us all together one video at a time, Peter, introducing us to so many amazing people. Keep up the wonderful work
Another great vid peter👍
So.much more genuine than the other videos
Educational what you are doing, also need to add you got some balls of steel getting in some places, keep the good work and God be with you.
Going to detroit city itself is not safe all the time, Dearborn is good.
Glad to see you asking kind of very basic questions. would love of have a chat with you sometime to share piece of my mind.
Peter I love watching your vlogs, u doing very well .
I love her no matter what she looks like .... he never leaves prayer .. The importance of prayer because the first question from God when you die in the grave is about prayer .. Secondly ... over time with the act of prayer it can change a hard heart into a soft one can change yourself for the better up to wholehearted obedience ❤
Having Nikki minaj is opening up? women rights is not having nikki minaj naked on stage, i am a man and i have to say this era is twisted af.
Peter, you have to do a series in Minneapolis or Minnesota in general
Great work! Thanks!
