The Aga Khan

Submitted by A Muslim (United States), May 8, 2010 at 12:55

I am very sorry that you had to see the wrong side of Muslims. Islam is a beautiful faith w/ a rich heritage and wonderful past. I believe all faiths are unique and wonderful in their own ways. i have always excepted the difference of the world as a gift. Islam is a religion. it has been misinterepreted by many. especially the concept of Jihad. Jihad is a fight within your self like instead of watching t.v tomorrow i will go do some community service. Jihad has been misunderstood and had made Islam seem like a terrible faith...which is not true. The Aga Khan a muslim leader, has worked very hard to improve the lifes of Muslims and Non-Muslims all around the world to make sure they have proper education, housing, health care, jobs and many more important neccesesities of life. The Aga Khan has made hundreds of agencies that help people they fall under one big agencie called the Aga Khan Development Network. so you see Islam is a religion of peace and has been misunderstood by many.
