Explain. I didnt know CC.

CC was a founding member of the original version of this forum.

She lived all over the world during her remarkable life. She understood Islam like few infidels I've ever known. She read and memorized English versions of the Quran and the Hadith. She could quote both without googling anything. She is the reason I understand Islam's true nature today.

Sadly CC passed away about three years ago after a long illness. She is missed.

85% of the world's refugees are Muslim.
Not one of the 56 Muslim countries is taking in refugees. Eleven of these are among the richest in the world. If Islam is so great, why aren't Muslims taking care of their own?
