It’s weird to gift religious texts to someone unprompted.

It wasn’t unprompted. She used a ismlamic term in an interview and people a freaking out about it. Had she said god bless you or shalom no one would bat an eye and I’m sure she’d receive a dozen bibles without a single article. The weird bit is this is being portrayed as a big deal.

I don't think saying Inshallah is a call for asking for a religion text to be given to you... This just sounds unprompted and honestly, I am tired of religious people everywhere laying it on thick so weirdly. None of them can ever stop throwing books it seems. Everyone cannot be praising their version of sky daddy!

As a Muslim, I need people, including my fellow Muslims around the globe, to stop thinking of Allah as an Islamic term. It is an Arabic term that just means God, any God. There’s a difference. Inshallah just means „If God wills“, and anyone can say it. The reason the term Allah is so heavily associated with Islam specifically is because it’s never translated from Arabic in Quran interpretations, so people internationally associate it exclusively with Islam, but it‘s not accurate to do so, and her saying Inshallah doesn’t mean she’s asking for religious texts of any religion to be given to her unprompted.

I read the article but I don’t think that it warrants receiving a religious texts. I wouldnt gift someone a bible because someone said god bless or Oh my god. It’s not a strict Muslim term either. Arab Christians and Jews use it too.

Not if that's the first phrase that came to her mind. If she's around Muslims, it may have seeped into her subconscious. I grew up with a Mexican friend who always went "Oye" to his dog when it wouldn't behave and now I say the same thing with mine.

It’s one of the most important things we can do as humans. Imagine if nothing was ever transferred between cultures.

You know allah is just an arabic word for god, right? If you were christian or pagan but spoke the language you would still say allah...

I'm an actual arab and that's not entirely true, the first Pilar of islam is to say "I accept/witness that there's no God but Allah" ....if Allah just meant God then what sense would it make to say " I accept that there's no God but God"? The actual arabic word of God is "illah" or "al illah" for "the god" not "Allah". An other word of god in Arabic is "Rab" or "Ar'rab" Allah is specificly reserved for the Islamic faith, it may have meant god before islam but after islam took over arab culture is became undeniably the name of the Muslim god.

I went to the same school as “I can see Russia from my house” Palin. One year a principal kiboshed the choir from singing a Freddie Mercury song…there’s an article about it, just to put how toxic of an environment toward different cultures, beliefs. But there was an older teacher Mrs.H who taught AP History. There was a big book on a stand in front of the classroom. She didn’t say anything about it until some kid took a gander at it like midway through semester bc he was bored before class started and was like WTF Mrs.H are you crazy. It was the Quran. She told the few of us that were there that it was up there if any of us were curious. This was an older white lady too. Saw her a couple years later after high school, and she was retired, gave me the business because I got a history degree instead getting into education haha

Trying to understand the minds of adults that believe in deities and figments of imagination will never make sense. The point though is she connected with a religious demographic and some of the more passionate believers are illustrating their gratitude. Had they built shrines in her honor. Or tried to make her a new messiah over this that would be weird.

I think I just never understand the part of religion where some are so concentrated on recruitment and bringing people to their side. I am religious, but in a way that I feel is no one’s business and I couldn’t care less if others believe the same as me. Religion feels more like a fan club at times or a supporting a football team.
