Speaking English would be a great start.

I think yes.  I think muslims should be profiled over other nationalities since they are the ones committing the terrorists act.

The Prince is not a Muslim and neither am I. But he, like myself, apparently wishes to learn about the Muslim faith in order to understand the people. It is through learning that misunderstanding and prejudice can be defeated and peace is possible. He wants to promote a positive attitude between Muslims and his own faith, just as I do. Not all Muslims are Godforsaken animals like Osama Bin Ladin. What is wrong with the Prince being a diplomat? He will be King one day and if I were a British citizen, I would want our King to use diplomacy and to promote peace. When our Towers collapsed, it was then that I took an interest in Islam and Muslims because I just wanted to understand the culture. I knew in my heart that Bin Ladin was not a man of God and I did not wish to condemn all Muslims nor Islam. It would be a grave injustice to do so. I remain Christian and I now have many Muslim friends and they are wonderful, caring, peace loving people. I too believe that the cartoon of Muhammed should be condemned and that it was a horrible, disprespectful thing to do. How would the English feel if someone did something like that to the Queen? While I'm sure it's happened, I'm quite sure that it offended people. Even as an American, I would be offended if someone did that to the Royal family as I am of British descent. If you wish to judge the Prince, then look at both sides of the coin. I commend Charles and the people of England for not condemning all Muslims as so many around the world do. Education and positive relations between cultures are the key to peace in my book. To remain open minded is to remain open hearted and God knows we need that now.

All mosque I have attended welcomed visitors. But out of respect you should at least wear long and loose firring pants or a skirt. A long sleeve shirt would be best, but they know your not Muslim and will not expect you to. If you really want to be respectful you could maybe wear like a bandanna or something that at least partially covers your hair. Like I said they know your not Muslim and don't observe the hijab(head scarf, covering).\n\nAnd as for what custom you should follow. Well Islam is a religion and does not go by costom(well some people do, but they should not). One thing that they will ask you to do is to take off your shoes. We put our face to the floor when we pray and keep the floor clean. And just be respectful, they will know you don't know and if you do something that is not so good, they will kindly tell you. \n\nHope that helps.

It is not Arab-centric at all.It can be applied every where.I live in Pakistan.It is near India.But I have got all types of Islamic teachings which are required in this region.Moreover Moslims can be found all over the world.If it is Arab-centric religion then there should be no followers of Islam in Asia,Europe,Americas,Austrailia and Africa.This religion is for every region and every type of man.Wether he is black or white,an Arab or a European.\nAvik actually this religion started from arabia.you talk about mosques structure yes it is arabic style because our prophet liked that structure.Same about Arabic language.

We should let them know that if non-Muslims have to wear badges in a Muslim country, then we and all other non-Muslim countries will make the Muslims in the non-Muslim countries also wear badges of the same size and color as required in the Muslim countries. Then we should put pressure on the rest of the world to pass that law in their country.

Totally agree - your religion has nothing to do with what is right or wrong, fact or fiction. Most of the time people simply adopt the religion of their parents - so for all your Christians out there who preach your particular brand of dogma - you would be Muslim if you had been born to Muslim parents.\nMore important than faith though is geography and wealth or should say wellbeing. Just thank yoursleves that we were born inteh developed world where we have frsh water and food in the fridge - now thats more important thatn any religion.

It could be the weather, the small towns and cities, the close quarters.  The size of the country may lend to the creativity that comes from the UK.  The role religion plays in growing up, the need to stand out and stand up for something...? It could be all or none of these things.

No. I don't get your question completely but if you're asking whether you should look at a religion's followers and from them deteremine a conclusion on the religion, then NO. I'm a Muslim and if you saw me in the street one day, you shouldn't think that that's what Islam teaches, because I don't do a lot of things that I'm supposed to as a Muslim. I hope that answers your question.

You need proper guidance. And a better teacher to teach you islam and its background. I dont know why non-muslims always have wrong conceptions about islam.

Many groups self-segregate. Multiculturalism proposed that all cultures are equal, so immigrants were under no obligation to assimilate. I think all immigrants should have to sign an explicit contract as a condition of entry agreeing to support the dominant culture, to abide by its rules, to encourage their children to join the police or army, etc. If, say a Brit settles temporarily in Saudi Arabia, there may be a case for living in an alcoholic ghetto, but if they wish to reside permanently then they need to sign up for an Islamic dress code, public executions, etc.

I think above of all, global brotherhood among the muslims and the non muslims is the most important aspect in the present world. because everybody in this world beyond religious or political differences want to and has a right to live in peace.

I feel you should leave a person's custom alone if you don't believe in it. Why not ask an Arab friend how it feels to walk into an airport and if you can't because you have none, leave it alone. An Arab and Muslims hold their customs sacred and it should not be belittled as an "experiment".

The Sultans play more of a "ceremonial" role- Very similary to the Queen of England.  In England, parliment and the Prime Minister make the decions but the Queen and the Royal Family serve as a figure head.

IMMIGRANTS, NOT BRITON'S, MUST ADAPT.  Take It Or Leave It.  I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture.  Since the terrorist attacks on London, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Brits.  However, the dust from the attacks has barely settled and the "politically correct" crowd begin complaining about the possibility that our patriotism is offending others.  I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone\nwho is seeking a better life by coming to Britain. However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.  This idea of London being a multicultural\ncommunity has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity.  As Britons, we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle.  This culture has been developed over centuries of wars, struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and\nwomen who have sought freedom.  We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language.  Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!\n\n"In God We Trust" is our National Motto.  This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan.  We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly\ndocumented.  It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools.  If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.\n\nIf the union Flag offends you, or you don't like " A Fair Go", then You should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.  We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care how you did things where you came from.\n\nThis is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this.  But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our National Motto, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great British freedom, "THE RIGHT TO LEAVE".  If you aren't happy here then b*gger off!  We didn't force you to come here.  You asked to be here.  So accept the country YOU accepted.  Pretty easy really, when you think about it.\nI figure if we all keep passing this to our friends (and enemies) it Will also, sooner or later get back to the complainers, lets all try, please.
