Welcome to Between 2 Worlds: Anglo-Caucasian Muslims
Islam is the birthright of every human being, regardless of race, ethnicity, or national origin. This site is dedicated to the seldom recognized communities of Anglo-Saxon
or Caucasian Muslims all over the world, from Bosnia, Albania, Kosova, Bulgaria,
Western Turkey, Russia, the Caucasus, and to the converts, whether 1st, 2nd or 3rd generation of North America and Western Europe.
These communities are unique and face certain challenges and issues apart from their African,
Middle Eastern, and Asian brethren. They are, among other things,
a part of greater Europe, and on the other, a part of dar al-Islam, two worlds which historically
have often been at odds with one another. Often abandoned by their fellow
Muslims in other parts of the world, and subject to violent persecution at
the hands of their non-Muslim countrymen at home (i.e.Bosnia, Kosova, Bulgaria,
Chechnya), they endure a great deal of hardship for the sake of their faith.
In addition, Anglo or Caucasian Muslims in North America and Western Europe
often encounter confusion and ridicule from their non-Muslim neighbors because
of their 'race', largely due to the notorious activities and sensationalism
of Louis Farrakhan's so-called "Nation of Islam" (a pseudo-Islamic black supremicist
organization originally founded by WD Fard and Elijah Poole in early 20th century America). Other Muslim converts may be attacked and called "traitors" or some other such names due to the current geo-political climate.
It is my hope that the information available on this site will help to promote
the true nature of Islam, to promote tolerance,and to encourage others to
recognize and remember their Muslim brothers and sisters of all colors and backgrounds. One God - One Humanity.
