There are many Western people - Muslim and non Muslim -
who are living in Muslim coutnries. For many this
experience has been a positive one. They have interacted
on a daily basis with Muslims, and have come to know them
as individuals and as humans, rather than as a 'species'
of their own.
It would be interesting to hear of the views of some
Westerners who are living among Muslims. Are they able to
communicate with them on any level? Can they relate to
them as one human to another?
All the best.
