Is there any consensus or "rules of play" for how to ask these questions and receive answers? Where do we start? Is there a published list of Islam Imams by Mosque? What exactly, is the structure, or "chain of command" of the Islamic faith in America?

Are there any Muslim Freepers? Gotta be, there seems to be just about everything else . . .

And what would a security issue be on this posting or thread. Thoughts?

That's one big problem with Islam: there is no "chain of command." Anyone can declare himself an Imam, and if his sermons attract followers, "he is one."

So there is no Pope (for example) to say "ENOUGH!" and have his words heeded.
