Islam, Christianity, Judaism/A Comparison
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page research paper that contrasts and compares these religions. Ryan (2004) points out that non-Muslims are frequently perplexed when they find out that Muslims consider "Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus" and many other biblical personages who are known to both Jewish and Christian scripture to be Muslim (p. 19). This does not mean that Muslims consider these historical figures to have been, literally, followers of the Prophet Muhammad, the founder of the Islamic faith. What it does mean is that these men individually surrendered themselves to God and His will. The phrase, "surrendering to God" is the literal meaning of the word "Islam." According to Ryan (2004), the root words in Arabic for both "Islam" and "Muslim" refer to what human beings of faith are called to do, i.e., surrender to God. As this observation suggests, these major world religions have similar roots and commonality. In order to find out more on this topic, this literature search was instigated. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Islamic Communities in the United States Post the September 11, 2001 Attacks
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing the change in Islamic communities in the West since the 9/11 terrorists’ attacks. Since the September 11, 2001 terrorists’ attacks on the United States, the Islamic communities in the United States, as well as the rest of the world, have received a great deal of exposure and misunderstanding that they are trying to remedy. Muslims within America are trying to form alliances within their own communities and with other religious communities in their areas to broaden the understanding of their faith, which is based on peace, and make non-Muslims understand that the extremists which exist under Islamic fundamentalism are a very small percentage of their population and do as much damage to their own people and cause as to others. In addition, some communities which were particularly hard hit after the attacks, especially the Muslim community in San Diego, have been promoting relationships with other religions which has in a sense caused a rift to form between Muslim Americans and Muslims in the Middle East. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
