The “All-American Muslims” reality TV show doesn’t reflect the reality of practicing Islam, local Muslims say.
The Learning Channel show follows five Muslim families living in Dearborn, Mich., as they deal with issues of faith, customs and community and gives a glimpse into their daily lives.
Local Muslims say the reality TV show doesn’t reflect how a faithful Muslim behaves.
“I think that’s made for TV,” said James Hall, a Muslim, community activist and radio host. “It doesn’t speak for me as a Muslim.”
Islamic Society of Gastonia President Hossam “Sam” Shoukry said he’s not judging anyone or questioning the faith of those appearing on the show, but he also takes issue with the families selected.
Shoukry points to high school football coach Fouad Zaban, who often cusses while talking to his team.
“You should use the right word choice,” Zaban said.
Cast member Nina Bazzy Aliahmad wants to open a nightclub. That’s something that would also be frowned upon since alcohol is prohibited in the Koran.
“I wasn’t really impressed with the whole show,” Shoukry said. “I didn’t feel good about the first two, three episodes.”
Shoukry is an Egyptian native but his children were raised in the United States. His 24-year-old daughter also thought the show’s cast didn’t behave the way Muslims should.
Those who watch the show may think all American Muslims act that way when they aren’t good role models, both Shoukry and Hall said.
“I think the concept is great,” Hall said. “There needs to be a general understanding of how a true Muslim in America lives in America.”
But the families chosen don’t represent the majority of Muslims.
“Yeah, it’s an eye opener on us,” Shoukry said. “But at the same time I don’t know who chose them or why they chose them,” Shoukry said.
The next episode of “All-American Muslim” will be broadcast at 10 p.m. on TLC Jan. 1.

I happened to catch a few minutes of this turd a few weeks back
Some poor guy was being forced to give away his dog because his wife’s religion did not allow dogs
Any religion that hates dogs has GOT TO BE evil
“Area Muslims: TV show doesn’t reflect reality of Islam”
We are quite aware of that.
Did ir show them bombing midnight Mass or slitting the throats of non-believers? Not reality.
We do not need a TV show to tell us about Muslims.
History, far and near, has taught us about Muslims.
That is why most of us want nothing to do with it.
It is meant as a sort of brain washing ... showing Americans that Muslims are just like us. It has nothing to do with reality. Just as all the TV shows and movies, are showing sexual activity, homosexuals in nearly every show and so on...
It must work, because Americans have changed our ideas about these subjects. Abortion, living together unmarried, having children without marriage, drugs, drinking. etc.
Heavenly Father forgive us, we cry out from a repentant heart. Change us into the image of thy Son, In Jesus name , /amen.
Time for “Blowing Up Muslim In America”.
“But the families chosen don’t represent the majority of Muslims.”
What? They are not killing their daughters for wearing jeans?
Not killing Jews and Christians? Not oppressing all women? Not flying airplanes into buildings? Not shooting a bunch of soldiers? Not nail bombing some school buses full of Jewish kids? It misses those sort of things???
“All American Muslim”
There’s no such thing.

Pam Gellar:
“All American Muslims” is an attempt to manipulate Americans into ignoring the threat of jihad and to bully them into thinking that being concerned about the jihad threat would somehow victimize these nice people in this show.
The problem people have with Islam is its teachings of violence against and the subjugation of unbelievers. It is with the supremacist ideology and the fervent believers in those noxious doctrines of warfare and subjugation. The ultimate danger posed by a program presenting the “normal” side of life for American Muslims is that it isn’t’t accurate.
The danger is in the deception and obfuscation of the truth which results in the intellectual disarming of the American people.”

Well, the koranimals did have a banner up to celebrate the Day of Jerusalem, which is a celebration of the murder of Israelis.
Uhmmm, I see on the news everyday what your religion is all about and your madmen’s warnings of what is to come and their exaltation of their lackey mass murderers.
Sorry, what else do I need to know?
Can’t hear yuh...
