I have been dating my boyfriend Mohamed for like 4 months. From the start he has been teaching me arabic language and tells me he is arabic and jewish and hebrew but now i just figured out he was muslim too but people are telling me he cant be muslim and arabic. He told me his grandmother was arabic and he was born muslim... im really confused. I just turned 18 and my mom is scared he is trying to take me out of the country and manipulate me because of the movie not without my daughter and he has talked to me about going out of the country with him but not to stay....

First of all if his Muslim he should not be dating. Boyfriends and girlfriends are not allowed in Islam because it leads to sinful things like fornication. He should have the intentions to get married and do things according to Gods law.
Islam is the religion of a Muslim
Islam means - The submission to the will of Allah (God)
Muslim - a person who submits to the will of Allah
Arabic is the language that all Muslim speak or try to learn because thats the language the Noble Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad from the Angel Gabrielle
We learn Arabic to understand the full meaning and to study the exact words from our lord.
It also can can be their culture or native language
One religion One language One God

Arab is an ethnicity common to the Middle East. Muslims follow the religion of Islam. Many Muslims are also Arab. The founder of Islam was an Arab and their holy book is written in Arabic.
"Jewish" can denote an ethnicity or a religion. "Hebrew" is sometimes used to denote the ethnicity, and it is the associated language. So you can be an ethnic Jew practicing Islam, and you can certainly also be a mix of Jewish and Arab and be religiously Muslim (following Islam). Saying he was "born Muslim" just means he was born into a Muslim family and has been raised as a Muslim since birth.

Muslims are Arabs, Americans, British, Mexican, Chineese, Japaneese, Malaysian, Indonesian, Just to name a few. Anyone on earth can be a muslim. Forget the movie. That was ancient history and had to do with Iranians, not Arabs. If I were you I wouldnt leave the country with him alone simply because you to arent married. In islam it is wrong for two people to be alone if they arent immediate family or married. Read more on Islam and Muslims before you do anything with this guy.
Yes you can be Jewish and named Mohammed. Some Jews have reverted to Islam.

Can't be Muslim AND Arabic?
Muslim means a follower of Islam, so it is a religious group
Arabic is an ethnic group hailing from Middle East (around Saudi ARABIA).
You CAN be a Muslim and Arabic at the same time.

Arabs are an ethnic group. Islam (Muslims) is a religion. The majority of Arabs are Muslims.
