Before I begin I wonder how you say something like that because I see that you are Arabian (from your name) which mean that you should know that it's NOT like that #1 If you are a Muslim in non Muslim country you will get all your rights even if you against a Muslim, because Islam is against racism, Prophet Muhammad said: " There's no deference between a Muslim and a non Muslim except in their creed." , That means if you are in my country (Egypt) and are you against me in the court, you'll not been asked for your religion .. I swear that Christians in Egypt (the Islamic country) have a special treatment than Muslims, because that is the Islamic teachings.

#2 about (If you are a woman in a Moslem country you have 1/2 the right of a man per the koran), You are totally wrong understanding it & I wish if you read the Qur'an carefully to understand the cases that God told us to do that in it, to get the great wisdom behind it.

#3 About (Fatwa). Fatwa is the meaning and the explanation of the things that you are asking about, ex.: Should I drink wisky or not?. The (Fatwa) is: You shouldn't ex.: Can I commit adultery? The (Fatwa) is: It's Forbidden That's is the meaning of Fatwa, it's the explanation of something in the religion and not to the thing that tiding and binding you

. #4 About (this will never happen because they look at America as a country of unbelievers and they want by all means to destroy the good things America has) Look around you and you'll find too much Muslim in a sensitive positions in America and they succeeded and helping America to grow more and more, Islam NEVER meant to destroy, Islam teaches how to live in peace together whatever your religions or colors are. Take a look at this page about Muhammad if you have any suspicions about what i'm saying http://prophetofislam.com/what_do_others_say.php And if you believed the propaganda that the American & the Jews made about the FALSE terrorist Bin Laden, allow me to say that your mind is so limited. any way if any one have any question ...

Best regards
