Have you ever heard about Lauren Booth? She is an American woman, Catholic of course.. who converted to Islam. If the Jews said that ISLAM is TERRORIST, then why Lauren Booth chose to converted to Islam? News that Lauren Booth has converted to Islam provoked a storm of negative comments. Here she explains how it came about – and why it's time to stop patronizing Muslim women.
Lauren Booth : 'How hard and callous non-Muslim friends and colleagues began to seem'.
It is five years since my first visit to Palestine. And when I arrived in the region, to work alongside charities in Gaza and the West Bank, I took with me the swagger of condescension that all white middle-class women (secretly or outwardly) hold towards poor Muslim women, women I presumed would be little more than black-robed blobs, silent in my peripheral vision. As a western woman with all my freedoms, I expected to deal professionally with men alone. After all, that's what the Muslim world is all about, right?
This week's screams of faux horror from fellow columnists on hearing of my conversion to Islam prove that this remains the stereotypical view regarding half a billion women currently practising Islam.
*This is the latest evidence that people don't have to feel fear to Islam. Islam is beautiful... If not, why a famous people like Mike Tyson, the late Micheal Jackson and Lauren Booth were converted to Islam? Think about it.
