Part of the problem of why many westerners do not get Islam is their understanding of religion. They think that religion is a personal thing, it’s something private. The problem with that view of religion is that it does not apply to Islam; Islam is more than a religion, it’s not only about a Muslim praying, fasting, or worshiping. Islam has more than prayer and worship, it has dangerous elements as well: Sharia law is one of the most dangerous elements in Islam
Excellent Speech. Brother Rachid addresses President Obama about ISIL and Islam; he explains to him how ISIL is imitating the prophet Muhammad in every detail they do. ISIL represents Islam.

Brother Rachid is the son of a prominent Muslim Imam in Morocco. Now a former Muslim, he hosts the Arabic language program "Daring Questions" on al-Hayat TV that challenges Muslims to question their faith. He starts by ripping President Obama's "Islam is peaceful" mantra, and says a lot of Muslim migrants have come to Europe as colonizers; those who take the Quran literally are a security threat; ISIS is just following Muhammad.
Brother Rachid (Rashid, Rasheed) sends an open letter to Mohammed VI, the King of Morocco, asking for rights for Moroccan Christians (who converted from Islam to Christianity). He is asks also for the release of a Moroccan Christian prisoner: Jamaa Ait Bakrim.
Ahmed is a Muslim who lives in Sweden, he called brother Rachid's show to say that he supports ISIS and that he is in a religious duty in Sweden to spread Islam. This view is the authentic Muslim view based on Muslim's sacred texts, some Muslims might reject it but that does not mean it is not found in the main stream Islam based on the Quran and the Hadith.
Former Muslim Brother Rachid sends a powerful message to the Caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State. He asks him and his followers important questions concerning the Islamic State: What is a country? How are nations built? What are the borders of this state? What is its currency? Does it have any future among other nations?
Is Islam growing in the West? Is there a difference between Islam and Islamism? What are the challenges that are facing Islam in the West today? What is the future of Islam in the US?
