The Trump Presidency; Good or Bad for American Muslims?

Now that Donald Trump has won the election. Some of us are already pretty certain that it will not make a big difference either way if we don’t get our own selves, our families and our communities in order. What we do will have a greater impact on our lives than what president elect Trump said, or says that he will do. Now that the election is over Mr. Trump has already started to back-pedal on some of his campaign rhetoric. Still, there are some people in the Muslim community who are alarmed, and fearful, and who will try to project that fear onto other Muslims. Some islamic organizations will raise money using that fear, and I’m sure that there will be a phalanx of Muslim scholars from overseas, acting with the colonial air of authority, who will weigh in and tell us how we as Muslims in America should react to our new president. The Trump presidency will be the topic ofour show this Saturday at 12:00 Noon, on the Muslim review with your host, Imam Luqman Ahmad.
