Once again we see Islam being brought into the workplace. Today we learn that Minnesota Vikings safety Husain Abdullah, has decided that fasting and playing at a lower level, is more important than giving it his all for the team.
Even while sprinting in the heat and humidity during drills, sometimes in full pads, Abdullah is adamant about his faith. He will not allow himself so much as a cup of water until the sun sets and before it rises.
“I’m putting nothing before God, nothing before my religion,” Abdullah said. “This is something I choose to do, not something I have to do. So I’m always going to fast.

The child actor who portrayed “ Buckwheat” in the Our Gang and Little Rascals movies recently converted to Islam. His new muslim name is ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, “ Kareem O Wheat”
This thread is oozing with political correctness. I find it amazing that Christians even think for a second that Muslims worship the same God as Christians.
I’m not saying he can’t fast but the media is clearly trying to mainstream Islam so we all can adjust. If Christians start believing we worship the same as Muslims they are in big trouble.
In America, you have the right to be wrong. Step away from the anger at Islam and substitute Jewish or Christian faith. This man has taken a stand on principle, and I salute his commitment to his faith.
It is a very conservative thing to respect a man of principle. I respect anyone who acts with integrity.
Very well put, and I wholeheartedly agree.
I have no problems with this.
I was stupid enough to play a high school football game on Yom Kippor when I was a freshman. I shouldn’t have done it. It was wrong for me.
Hank Greenberg and Sandy Koufax both refused to play on Jewish High Holy Days, and in fact, Koufax sat out game 1 of the World Series, that he was supposed to pitch.

So you have no problem with an aspect Sharia being brought into the NFL? Jews are not on a worldwide movement, looking to impose a set of barbaric religious laws on all. But Muslims are, so please do not compare this to a Jew.
Entch Allah.
First, nobody in this thread said they worship the same god as christians.
Secondly, how very kind of you to give him permission to practice his religion in America, where freedom of religion isn't allowed!..... what... 1st amendment???... get out of here with that extremist right wing crap! The government only allows one religion.... No, nobody is allowed to differ on religion in America!! What do you think this is, a free country?? YOU MUST FOLLOW THE PARTY LINE COMRADE!!!!!! /s
Gee, he didn't demand that games not be played during ramadan. He simply stated that he's going to observe his religious obligations. Simple. This has NOTHING to do with this guy imposing his beliefs on anyone else, including sharia law. Be sure to let me know when he does that, and I'll agree with you at that point.

Not quite sure where you’re going with that one.
And, that they are so accustomed to that response that they no longer bother making "demands."
And, thusly, have become less tolerant of those that do.
Is Brett Favre a Muslim too?
Tim Tebow gets hammered daily for his unwavering faith yet this guy is praised. Unreal.
And that he's just been traded to Detroit.
NOOOOOOO! Detroit doesn’t want him! Trade him to the Browns. Or Buffalo.
He’d fit in great with Haynesworth in DC.
Lots of snake handling muzzie support on this thread.
I guess the murder and pedophilia is cool too as long as it is supporting their “religion”..
One demand leads to another, and it has already hurt team. Another door has been opened for Islam to advance.
Amazing huh? No wonder Sharia is advancing across the West.
