An American
A Dunkin' Donuts bag and a Koran share space on her dresser. Sneakers and head scarves are both part of her daily dress. And in the evenings,[url=http://woolrichoutletde.albirank.net/][b]Woolrich Arctic Parka Woolrich Online Shop Woolrich Damen Parka Woolrich Deutschland Outlet[/b][/url], she might watch "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" after praying toward Mecca with her parents and six siblings.
But in our nation's melting pot of cultures and religions,[url=http://woolrichschweizshop.albirank.net/][b]Woolrich Parka Winter Woolrich Online Shop Schweiz Sale Die Gute Qualität Woolrich[/b][/url], it's those contrasts that make Feda Eid (FEE-dah ah-YEED) distinctly American.
"I don't see why anyone would think I'm more or less of an American just because of my religion," Feda says. Her greenish-blue head scarf accents the intense green of her eyes.
She has thought a lot about her religion and her country since Sept. 11,[url=http://parajumpersjacketwiki.blogspot.com/][b]http://parajumpersjacketwiki.blogspot.com/[/b][/url], when terrorists attacked the United States. Feda is a freshman at North Quincy High School near Boston. Recently,[url=http://woolrichoutletde.albirank.net/][b]Woolrich Damen Parka[/b][/url], some of her fellow students have pestered her for wearing a head scarf. "They thought that because I'm a Muslim, I must agree with what the terrorists did,[url=http://rogervivieroutlet.webmium.com/][b]roger vivier australia store Buy Roger Vivier Shoes In Roger Vivier UK Online Shop[/b][/url]," she says. "Of course I don't!" she adds.
Too many Muslim stereotypes
But mostly, Feda says, students have been really nice, and have asked her about her religion,[url=http://cheapsoccercleatswithfreeshipping.webmium.com/][b]soccer cleats for sale[/b][/url], Islam. A few teachers have asked her to explain in class how she practices her religion.
Feda often begins by pointing out stereotypes of Muslims in movies, television shows, news reports - and even in her history books. Muslims are often portrayed as oil-rich Arabs, women in long black robes, sword-swinging warriors fighting medieval Christian crusaders, or suicidal terrorists.
"I have the same religion as the Sept. 11 terrorists,[url=http://monclerjacketsuk.albirank.net/][b]Moncler Outlet Online Store UK Cheap Moncler Jackets Coats Sale[/b][/url]," Feda says, "but the terrorists make it completely different. They stretch the ideas of Islam, and think their attack was justified because it was a jihad [holy war]. But really, killing innocent people is not a jihad - nor is it even allowed in Islam."
Feda's parents and two older sisters came to the United States from Lebanon in 1982,[url=http://duveticavestesfr.halod.com/][b]Doudoune Duvetica Femme online shop duvetica vestes paris boutique[/b][/url], during the civil war there. Feda,[url=http://cheapsoccercleatswithfreeshipping.webmium.com/][b]cheap soccer cleats for sale[/b][/url], two more sisters (one older, one younger),[url=http://rogervivieroutlet.webmium.com/][b]http://rogervivieroutlet.webmium.com/[/b][/url], and two younger brothers were born here.
Feda says her life isn't very different from the lives of her classmates, except "maybe that I wear a head scarf and pray throughout the day."
She wears the scarf because Islam requires that women dress with modesty (no showy or revealing outfits). "But I don't usually wear it around the house or when I'm just around relatives," she says. Younger girls don't wear them,[url=http://rogervivieroutlet.webmium.com/][b]Roger Vivier UK Online Shop[/b][/url], either.
The family heads downstairs to the living room and puts small rugs down on the wooden floor. The rugs point toward Mecca,[url=http://parajumpersparkamen.webmium.com/][b]Woolrich Parka Parajumpers Jacket Canada Goose Outlet Online[/b][/url], the Saudi Arabian city where the prophet Muhammad was born. (See accompanying story.) Talal leads the prayers for the family and also for a nearby mosque (a Muslim place of worship). As the mosque's prayer leader, he is the "imam" (ee-MAM). That's an Arabic word for "prayer leader." He reads from the Muslim holy book,[url=http://duveticavestesfr.halod.com/][b]Doudoune Duvetica Femme online[/b][/url], the Koran, and sometimes delivers sermons.
Fasting during Ramadan
Feda says she sometimes goes back to bed after morning prayer. "Or,[url=http://duveticavestesfr.halod.com/][b]duvetica vestes paris[/b][/url], if I miss it, I pray whenever I wake up,[url=http://rogervivieroutlet.webmium.com/][b]roger vivier australia store[/b][/url]," she adds. She usually waits until she gets home from school around 3 to do the rest of the prayers with her family, or by herself in her room.
