Your Daily Muslim #634: Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf
Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf, born Chris Wayne Jackson, played for the Denver Nuggets. His career plummeted after he took a bizarre stand – or, more specifically, seat. Instead of standing for the national anthem with the rest of his team, Abdul-Rauf chose to remain seated or stretch. Why? Because he is Muslim – and any form of […]

Your Daily Muslim #628: Abdullah Zaik Abdul Rahman
Well, it’s Halloween, so I figured it’d be fitting to feature a Halloween-related fatwa (Islamic edict) on YDM. Meet Malay Islamic scholar Ustaz Abdullah Zaik Abdul Rahman, president of the Islamist group ISMA, a man who seeks to drive Malaysia back into the 7th century through fearmongering, blatant lying, and utter lunacy. When Malaysia’s National […]

Your Daily Muslim #626: Marium Navid
When Muslims hear something they don’t like, they often try to silence that opinion, whether by beheading, legal oppression, or in today’s case, complaining.

Your Daily Muslim #620: Zunera Ishaq
Zunera Ishaq was brought to Canada from Pakistan by her husband in 2008. Now, she’s demanding Canada change its laws for her bizarre religious practices. Instead of being grateful for the opportunity to become a citizen, Ishaq put off her citizenship ceremony – because she wasn’t allowed to pretend it was Halloween and wear the […]

Your Daily Muslim #613: Mustafa Hussein bin Beyyette
Missouri Muslim Mustafa Hussein bin Beyyette, born Theodore Barrett, has gotten a lot of media attention for all the wrong reasons. An activist in the city of Ferguson, bin Beyyette has been on the radio, live-broadcasting details of the racially-charged riots since the shooting death of Michael Brown. The left-leaning media has shared numerous quotes […]

Your Daily Muslim #612: Fazlul Haque Amini
You know your life amounted to nothing when your Wikipedia entry lists your most notable idea as being the implementation of sharia. In other words, Bangladeshi Islamic scholar/politician Fazlul Haque Amini (not to be confused with Fazlul Haque), didn’t give the world anything of worth before his passing in 2012. However he tried his damnedest […]
