my thinking is maybe until they find out your standings on things and if they agree with there thinking or maybe just try to convert to there thinking or not tell to much or learn new things as you hear them or learn or ask a good good friend that will not tell on you cause you may get the crap kicked out of you sadly I know someone that joined and he turned gay about a week before joining the army
it was hell for him he was punched kicked given **** jobs and names for 6 weeks so I wish you luck if your truly for fighting for the USA I truly wish you luck! |

Yes, you probably will. The U.S. Army is full of straight up rednecks that will not see you for what you are trying to do but what you represent and at this point that is the enemy.
Also how are you going to feel picking up a rifle against your distant family potentially? I can't amgine. |

you should not be, the Army has really cracked down on this behavior, if you are, then report it, I guarantee it won't happen after their command knows about it. |

Being a Muslim it is your responsibility to be honest, trust worthy and committed to your responsibilities. In institutions a man is judged by his actual performance. Religion has no relevance. |

No one can know what kind of people they will encounter in the military! I am sure there are all kinds of religions! Some people are peaceful and others are not. There will always be good and bad as long as we are human! God and peace be with you on your journey! |

As long as you put loyalty to this country before loyalty to fellow Muslims, you should only be treated as badly as any other soldier - which can be pretty rough.
Be of strong character, do your duty to America, be prepared to absorb some roughness and become stronger for it. And, be prepared to look those rough men in the eye and say, 'My Fellow American'. |

no more than any other enlistees are harassed, they all are during boot camp, but that is a part of preparing you for possible mental duress in combat. you will be fine. good luck |

No you will not - as long as you do not throw your religion in their faces.
People tend to get annoyed when somebody tries to push their religion on them. If somebody is interested in talking to you about your religion - then go ahead. But if they seem uncomfortable or uninterested - talk about something else.
IMO the biggest issue you may face is religious dietary requirements. The military is not always going to be able to provide you with food that meets your religious requirements and you may have to eat what is available. This is something you need to think about. |

No more than anyone else.
Do you speak any Arabic?
Because if you did you would be the man and you would get paid more.
Welcome to the Army, Glad to be on the team |

No one will care. Some people will be hesitant at first, but they'll get over it quickly. Ultimately you'll be serving with a small tight crew that will get to know you & not care anything about it. Do be prepared to field questions after they get to know you about why the bad guys feel the way they do & how we can get normal musilums to come around to a modern way of thinking instead of sympathizing with this cult of evil. I appreciate & respect your decision by the way. Good Luck! |

for 23 years I have served and frankly, religion is just that... sacred. The military was the ONE place I knew I could practice my religion and had no issue with anyone elses.
Congratulations, by the way... |

Salaam, I am Muslim,
Its ok to be in the army--but you should NOT fight in Iraq. This war is WRONG & Un-JUSTIFIED. You can not go over there and kill Muslims. Allah says that if any Muslim kills a Muslim--then he enters into the hellfire. (Quran)
This is a test of your Faith..Before you serve anyone--you FIRST SERVE ALLAH. That is Islam!!!!
I am American, and I love America--but I serve Allah first. At one time, Americans didnt let black people vote or eat in restaurants with white people--would you have gone along with that because you were American???... NO--we are sopposed to be strong and Follow Allah and the Truth. Allah says "Stand out firmly for Justice"..The Iraq war is Un-Just-period...
As far how Muslims will treat you---I wont mistreat you because you are not hurting me--It wont be ME on the Judgement Day with Muslims blood on my hands--it will be You---if you do this..I dont have time to worry about what other Muslims are doling--I'm trying to make it to the Paradise for my own self. To you be your way--and to me mine.PEACE. |
