12/6/07, Letter to the Editor, printed in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

(Printed in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, 12/6/07)

As a Muslim, I would like to express my dissatisfaction with the Sudanese government for letting the British teacher go to court over a simple misunderstanding. The teacher who reported her should have explained, instead, that the name of the Holy Prophet shouldn't be given to an animal.

This mistake would never have occurred in the Ahmadiyya movement in Islam, a sect that builds schools and hospitals free in impoverished countries. The Ahmadis, who are besieged around the world by extremists, continue to grow and do good works, such as feeding the poor and sending doctors to every worldwide disaster.

In short, all Muslims are not alike.
