If u had an opportunity to live (for awhile) with a real Muslim family in their native land would u go?

Answer 1

I would go in a heart beat. I think it is important for people to experience life in other places throughout the world. I can't say that I wouldn't be hesitant to enter an area that is involved in the bombing and such, but to actually see something like that would be amazing. One of my best friends is Palestinian and to hear what her family went through before moving to America is amazing. I would love to go back with her to experience life in another part of the world.

Answer 2

Not that I think this is a bad question, but for all those who see this as a racial attack, I spent 3 months in Jordan and 7 Months in Haifa Israel after my ship ran aground in the suez canal. They are very nice peolple. I have been watching the news about the confrontations going on and i am saddened by the sight of one of the buildings I used to go to "as a salor in Haifa 2000" that was blown up. I have alot of respect for those people. They are very devoted to thier religions and families. Most of them pray, work, and take care of thier families. I would highly recomend both of these countries to anyone panning a trip to the middle eat, after the fighting is over. I actually cried when I sawa fatality on the news. It was a Russian bar tender that I knew,and kept in contact with. She had been saving her money to come to the states and visit my family in Kentucky. All of this fighting is useless. I know that many are against the war in Iraq, "so am I", but realize that the middle east is not the only palce effected by the problems going on over there. I do no support the reason that our troops are in the middle east, but I do support our troops in general. I want to see our American Brothers And Sisters come home safe. I keep watching the news and see all of the terrorist activities going on and I wonder, "If we don't do something, who is? No one else is stepping up to the plate. Do we let a Tinny part of the world threaten the entire world?" I'm glad we stepped up to the plate first. At least other countries can count on us Not Tollerating Terrorism, even if that is not the reason for us being there. I voted for Bush, and I can say, the only reason I regret my decision is hte fact that I don't aggree with our presence in iraq, but I am happy we have taken a more aggressive stance against terroism.

Answer 3

I'm a Muslim from Egypt. I always invite people from Europe, America and Australia to visit me at my place. I had a German family (a man, a woman, a daughter, and a son) in our house for a week, I also invited many American colleagues to visit me. Last Friday an Australian couple that I met in Berlin spent the whole day with me then we went out to a theme park together.

All the members of my family are always very welcoming to the visitors.

Answer 5

Even a lifetime. There's no problem living with them at all. I have Muslim friend. Muslim boyfriend. I see no problem with. Treat them well and they'll treat you well.

Though there are some, like those in southern part of the Philippines, err... I'll have a second thought, but maybe i'll still consider it for a while. ;))

... err,, did i said it right??? or left??

Answer 6

Depends on what country and what region. I lived briefly in Iran -- in downtown Tehran, in 1979 -- and loved it. I lived several years in Algeria and hated it, except among the Tuareg in the desert.

Indonesia, Malaysia, Mindanao, India . . . why not?

I was in Lebanon in 1965. A paradise, then. Cairo same year: magnificent. But since then the Mulsim Brotherhood -- and the writings of Sayed Qutb -- have done their dirty work.

Answer 7

Maybe. I would actually find that fascinating, but I'd have a few questions before I go. Do they have room for me?, would their house be considered nice by American standards (I live in a nice house in the US, so I wouldn't want to trade that for dirt floors), would there be a job for me to do there? Do the people speak English? I'd be happy to learn their language and religion, but I wouldn't know it coming in besides what I read in "A pocket guide to Islam." And also, what Muslim country do they live in? I would imagine conditions are much better in Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, or Saudi Arabia than, say, Afghanistan.

Answer 8

Yes.... My boyfriend lived with Muslim family in Iran because they accepted him while he was traveling around world.

Answer 9

Got a problem with that Miss? , Don't know but you might have a really wrong idea about Muslims, "real Muslims are really nice" be sure from that. :)

Answer 10

It is much more preferable to live with an unreal muslim family. I find that they like pumpkin pie, turkey and respect others. Strangely, they don't say a word yet their children never strap explosives to their body, go figure.
