Yes, but did he receive his Conscientious Objector status for being Muslim?

He initially received it from the DOD, believe it or not, but then it was revoked by a military panel, since you have to have a track record of being a member of a pacifist religion or group before you apply.

Needless to say, Islam is not a pacifist religion and therefore there was no way he could qualify.
