as salaamu alaykum wa rahmatullah,

check out this study done on American Muslims at Cornell University:
http://www.bridges.tv/American_Muslims/american_muslims.html#Top

it has some interesting statistics, like top five cars owned by American Muslims, favorite fast-food restaurant, dishwashing detergent, etc :)

other interesting facts:

- 67% of adult American Muslims are under 40 years old
- 'student' is the #1 occupation for American Muslims, followed be engineer
- 26% of American Muslim households earn over $100,000 / year



wasalaamu alaykum :-)

Dawn is a much better buy than the others. It will last twice as long with dirty dishes.

The trick is to use a small amount. We want to add like two squeezes...when one will do.

Assalamu'alaikum :)

mashaALlah.. I think this is soooo good!

Subhanallah.. U guys can do a roadmap for the future.. and really position yourselves well with these info!

[list][*]American Muslims are under-represented in occupations that  make public policy and influence public opinion
[*]Few American Muslims pursue Print/TV/Film media
[*]American Muslims are unlikely to be in state legislatures and courts where laws are made and practiced. [/list][/quote]


And I like the fact that your affluency is higher than national average, mashaALlah :)

I think the social demographics for American Muslims are actually well placed and the potential is great for influencing public opinion. If U have information on the US's Scenario Planning for the next 25-50 years, then... subhanallah.. the challenge is great but U can do wonders.

Move in Peace,
Move with Peace.

Wassalam :-)

funny brother funny... to answer your question futhoor is a word for breakfast only.  meaning the food same as it is in english.. but it doesn't imply a time unless u said like futhoor time!!

i think it's rather interesting Muslims are well educated and wealthy in the US.. interesting. It bodes well I think for the future if we can actually use that for Islam inshaAllah.

Sadly there are also a great many Muslims who are unpractiscing *(sp). In our city alone there's supposed to be 6,000 Muslims, I've never seen more than 2000 (at Eid), and the most a couple of hundred (1 or 2) at Jumuah. Less than 10 active Muslims in the Masjid.

Sad.

as salaamu alaykum,

this is something imam zaid shakir has been saying for a long time.. that the American Muslim community is literally the most educated and most wealthy [per capita] Muslim community in the *world*.. and with that comes a lot of opportunity and potential that we need to harness.

I thought it was funny that the #1 car Muslims own is Toyota.. I can't tell you how many websites I've visited of like foreign students who have pictures of themselves positioned around their toyotas  :P

ps - to the toyota owners out there, and those who have pics like that up on their websites.. I'm just teasing :)
