I think we could safely say that being a Muslim in today’s 
world is a great challenge and it does involve sorting out 
confusing ideas and dealing with turmoil, sorrow, and pain. 
The young Muslims today often face unwarranted accusations 
of being terrorists from the non-Muslim society as well as 
sometimes from their own Muslim community; pressure from 
family who follow traditional values—to live their lives 
according to the customs of their ethnic group even though 
some practices, like forced marriage, are against Islam. 
They also face pressure from the non-Muslim world to adopt 
the Western notion of “freedom” and display the ability to 
behave morally and accept the immoral actions of others, or 
else be labeled as “intolerant,” which is often synonymous 
with “fundamentalist.”

How should we deal with our ethnic community (including 
family)? Should we ever feel superior to other Muslims? Did 
the Prophet (peace be upon him) teach that Muslims are 
superior?
