Now a american wouldn't understand this same some body who is not proud to be a muslim too....
Its always the minority that feels proud just like christan's from pakistan use to feel proud of yousuf youhana. NO body coun't how many muslims there r in the pakistan team or bangladeshi team they count how many minority r there and they feel proud.. just like us muslims feel proud when we hear that a muslim is playing for france....
I don't want to attack anyone this is just what i think people feels when they say this is muslim and so on....
well said.....and it also helps me personally to increase my Imaan when I read/see the stories of reverts.......May Allah guide us all in the right path...Ameen
