Abstract
A multi-ethnic society is a society that has many different ethnic groups
within their common social identity or "nation," including differences in
race, history and culture. The majority of cities and towns in most
countries are multi-ethnic societies. It is an important component of a
successful multi-ethnic society is an understanding and tolerance towards
all kinds of people. Without the acceptance of the differences between
cultures and ethnic groups, a multi-ethnic society will be divided and
prone to unrest. Islam is a fastest growing religion in West. In the next
half century or so, Christianity’s long reign as the world’s largest religion
may come to an end. Indeed, Muslims will grow more than twice as fast
as the overall world population between 2015 and 2060 and, in the second
half of this century, will likely surpass Christians as the world’s largest
religious group. Muslims are facing many challenges in the West,
especially in terms of islamophobia and hate. Nearly 75 percent of
Muslim Americans either know someone who has or have themselves
experienced an act of anti-Muslim discrimination, harassment, verbal
abuse or physical attack since September 11. Almost half of Americans
believe that Islam is more likely than other religions to promote violence.
Muslim youth can contribute to Islam by giving time, talent and money.
It is their duty and privilege to present the truth and proof about Islam and
what it represents. They desire to clear up misconceptions and
misunderstandings about Islam to help others see the true message that
came with all of the prophets from Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and
Muhammad, peace be upon them all. They should also play an important
role to bring about positive change in society, and should work with an
objective of making Islam prevalent over all the other ways of life.
