If your kid wants to go to a Muslim family's house to play, would you mind?

Question

Why / Why not?

sen b : If you try to be more unbiased it would be better! I'm a Muslim too and i asked that question to see the other people's opinions. huh...

Answer 1

Nope. I'd tell them to go and expand there minds. There isn't anything wrong with people who aren't like me.

Answer 2

I am an American convert so ofcourse I wouldn't mind however it is easy to say the same bs thats aready on here "no why would I care they're human" or others but when that REALLY happens they change their minds quickly.

I live in an upity town who is all about Bush, so we all know what that means. Anyhow I haven't had much trouble because I am white however I have a friend whose house would get egged on a daily basis and his friends could only be his friends at school because of his parents.

So truly think about the question and decide upon yourself how you want your children to feel about mine.

Well, I don't have kids but you know what I mean!!

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

We have Muslim neighbors and they seem very nice. Of course they always cover up ( Women do ) and the men rule with an iron fist. They do say they will someday take over the USA by getting voted in and then they will make everyone become Muslim.

Answer 4

If the decision is based purely on religion, then yes, I would allow my kids to play with Muslim kids.

Having said that, it is always good to be familiar with the parents of any child your children want to play with. That is just good parenting.

Answer 5

My children are not allowed over anyone's house unless I know the family, no matter what race or religion they might be. However, since I do not agree with any of the teachings of islam and feel that Muslims are misled, I would not allow my children to go to their home.

May God Bless you.

Answer 6

Not at all, why would their being Muslim make me want to discourage my child from being friends with them? In the case of any religion, anyone who tries to undermine my child's faith and practice is not someone I would encourage my child to be friends with, but again that is my child's battle not my own.

Answer 7

Yes, If I knew the family I don't see why I wouldn't, because there religion should not be held against our children playing together, hate is a leaned behavior.

Answer 8

As a child i went to many Muslim friends house to play, what do you think happened to me? Nothing i can tell you for sure. There parents where always welcoming, we played like any other children and i never witnessed anything to do with there worship or was talked to about God etc. I was there child's play mate as simple as that. I was not a Muslim, i was your average typical white Scottish Protestant child who grew up in a multicultural society and had friends and neighbor of every faith and color. I did however grow up to convert to Islam 21/2 years ago. Other children come to my house to play with my children and my faith is not put upon them in any way, would not dream of it. What is you think goes on in a Muslim household where children play? What do you think goes on in an atheist household, christian household, catholic household, Hindu household when children go to play? Guess what they "play" same as a Muslim one same as a Buddhist one same as a Jewish one. What a silly question.

Answer 9

No of course not! I would check out the family of anyone my hypothetical children wanted to be friends with, but their religion would not play any part in my assesment - it hardly dictates ones character.

Answer 10

I go to my Muslim friends house to visit and watch movies. His wife is very gracious and goes out of her way to be hospitable.

Our friendship is based on respect for each other.

But if they ever start espousing Muhammed and his ways, like people in this forum, then it's fair game to promote the Most High God back at them.

Peace unto you!
