Well, Omar, I mistook one of my friends for being a non-Muslim, even though he was hosting an event for Islamic Awareness Week on campus. Cropped beard and longish hair, the problem was that he started off with an English translation of the salam.

My verdict?

‘A very knowledgeable Jew’.

I will never live that down.

Thanks for your comment and the link. What does your name mean? Is that Turkish?

Very funny post. Don’t shelve the “silly” from now on. It all comes from the source.

When I lived in Damascus, everybody’s first assumption was Turkish or Russian/Eastern European. Who says blondes have more fun? Since I was speaking Arabic, I liked to make people guess. Several cab drivers told me “You can’t be American! You speak Arabic!”
