Dear beloved Christians,

We Muslims want to send our deepest gratitude and appreciation for your kindness in this time of despair.

It fills our hearts, minds, and souls with warmth and compassion when we see and hear stories of Christians helping Muslims.

A Christian group here is doing the shopping for Muslim women who are too scared to be in public. Some Christians are wearing the veil in show of solidarity, and other various generous acts and words have personified the beautiful teachings of Christ.

The Grace displayed by Christians today is only matched by Jesus:

“Love thy Neighbors” “Let he without sin cast the first stone”

Although some Jews have killed Jesus, Christians have risen above the racism of condemning all Jews for His Murder, similarly, the followers of the Lord today are rising above condemning all Muslims for the accused actions of a few.

The racism that drove people to the Holocaust, burning African American Churches, and attacking Arabs is the same type of racism that led to the WTC tragedy. We Muslims understand that those who claim to be Christian and commit such acts do not represent all Christians and are not following the guidance of Jesus.

We all worship the same God of Abraham, and the Good Will Muslims have witnessed from Christians in the name of “Caring” has proven we are all the children of Adam.

As the modern Christians have sympathized with the 6 million Jews killed in WWII, please also keep in mind the 7 million Afghanis who face starving to death because of imposed sanctions.

Again dear Christians, Thank you Thank you Thank you for being Christ like, and may God save us all.

Peace
