Islam On Twitter

No example is more powerful a testament to the growing impact of social media than the ongoing revolutions of the Arab Spring. Twitter, Facebook and other social media has drastically changed the way people engage with their civic and religious communities, both locally and globally.

At HuffPost Religion we have compiled a list of prominent Muslim voices on Twitter to share with you. Their feeds are great for staying connected with the important issues affecting Muslims in the United States and in countries around the world. They offer insightful reaction and commentary that is helpful for anyone interested in Islam, interfaith relations, the intersection of religion and politics, or global affairs. It is our hope that you will join their conversation on Twitter and here at HuffPost Religion.

Be sure to add to our list below if you have a great recommendation for a Muslim voice on Twitter, and follow @HuffPostRelig for news and commentary on Islam and other faiths.

Ms. Banks, I suggest you're on the wrong path, if you want to counter anti-Muslim bigotry.
Rather than having Muslim clerics come into Christian churches to speak, I suggest they first attend in depth, educational training about being an American, in America. Then they in turn can teach their flocks.
America is a melting pot. The most successful, accepted nationalities that have immigrated to this country realized how inportant it was for them and their children to learn and live the American culture, language, customs, traditions, religions, political differences, entertainment and society.
We are NOT a country of Sects/Tribes/Groups (like where they immigrated from). Where each Sect has their own"Things",dress,secular laws,history,language,traditions,that they want to use in their daily life in America. Those who do want to assimilate and become "American" are not wanted by other American immigrants. They can practice their religion (like others) on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. They can have special days to celebrate their old country, religion, nationality, food, entertainment and dress.
I suggest that most Americans easily accept legal immigrants (regardless of religion) who want to be "American" and want to offer to them all the freedoms and rights unique to our country.
However, If they want to live, dress, adhere to secular/religious/racist/bigoted laws of their old country, then they need to go back to their old country.
America is not perfect, but its people, generosity, freedoms and opportunities for a prosperous, safe life exist nowhere else in the world.
