i had a dream

[aosapplicant 3]

Dear Forum members, I had a nightmare tonight.

I was walking towards the interview building and endless number of people were lined up towards the entrance. They stood in two lanes, separated by a narrow threadline I could walk on. They were all staring at me.

And they all were asking the same question: "Are you a Muslim?"

The closer I walked to the building the louder questions would get heard.

Started as a whisper, they would be almost screamed at me just before I entered the building:

Are you a Muslim?

ARE YOU A MUSLIM ?

Finally the door opened , I walked through and immediately found myself in the lighted, white-walled room. The room was empty..

Only 4 walls surrounding me....

I was left alone in this room and the door behind me would close in a way that would reveal no gaps...

I was essentially in a cube, with no sign of interview or IO in sight!

Like commissar Juve in the french movie Fantomas, who was put in asylum surrounded by plush walls he would kick for no avail,

I found myself procrastinating and waiting for something to happen, but alas, nothing would happen!

It lasted like an eternity...

And as I was ready to die of heart attack the Allah suddenly appeared before me and spoke to me in a soft

voice , holding a silver tray on his right hand. On a tray I saw my Green Card!!!

This was unbelievable, I was ready to jump of joy like a child and as I extended my arm to pick up my card it disappeared, a loud laughter could be heard ,

the Allah would remove his mask and there I saw Fantomas !!!!

Needless to say, I woke up , all sweaty and panting as if was drowning before.

Being a Muslim and going through AOS is no joke, I tell ya!

Being an immigrant and going through AOS is no joke.

Being an immigrant and going through AOS is no joke.

Being a Muslim immigrant and going through AOS is even less of a joke.

Possibly, but we won't be able to change existing geopolitical situation.

The title of your topic is misleading. Just saying...

[aosapplicant 3]

You are right, but that's not what my post is about.

It's about ME suffering these nightmares on the account of being a pious, practicing, mosque going Muslim

in AOS.

I am posting to share my Muslim experience and I want other Muslim applicants to share theirs, so we can mutually

help one another to go through this ordeal.

I wish you good help in finding your solutions but it does not read as a Immigration, Religious, or Freedom of Speech Issue.

Why do you need to keep repeating Muslim experience, being a Muslim we are used to being treated bad, And you are suffering on the account of being pious??? Practicing? You seem to be having OTHER issues, please stop bringing Islam into this.

The way you will be interviewed is based on your relationship with SO. Not that you go to Mosque.

Hey there i am from Egypt but not muslim but let me tell u if u gone through the visa process in consulate u can go through anything it is not big of a deal u not the only muslim who immigrated to the U.S there are alot of muslims. if your security and background checks are clean u dont need to worry about anything and maybe u need to stop posting these posts u know these posts can get u in a trouble and make the government more suspicious about u. its just an advice and again u dont need to worry about being a muslim.

Clearly, you have little empathy for your fellow Muslim going through this kind of ordeal.

Or, perhaps, you are not a Muslim and don't know what it means to have an experience as a

Muslim going through AOS. If latter is the case, please reserve your assumptions and comments

for yourself and let other Muslims going through the same share theirs'.

I pray to Allah to bless your heart with more kindness, mercy and compassion ,

so that you would be free of jinns who negatively influence your comments about

pious and well meaning Muslim applicant.

I pray to Allah to forgive your sins!

Alhamdullilah!

Seriously?

Mods, does this belong in this area of the forums?

If you read through this guys posts you will see he is all over the place....

Don't feed the trolls, as one forum member advised.

May Allah forgive your sins too, jdh!

I pray to Allah to cleanse your soul of those negative and unfounded assumptions, as

my intent in posting this thread is sincere and truthful, not influenced by jinns or trolls (is it

Christians word for jinns?)

May Allahs' mercy and wisdom shine on you, jdh!

Alhamdullilah!

Oh, mods, please put this thread in the Politics and Religion forum instead. Please.

[aosapplicant 3]

I respectfully disagree. This thread is not about religion or policitcs, it's about my individual experience as an AOS applicant who happens to be a Muslim.

Dear Valeria, are Muslims precluded or forbidden to post their AOS experience, as opposed to everyone else?

I kindly ask Allah to have mercy and compassion on mods and let this thread to stay here!

Thank you for your offer of prayers.

Your not seeing clearly of much of why it doesn't make sense of what you write on here.

I have no negative JINNS influencing me.I retain empathy for my fellow brother, sister, human.

You are going off the deep end and claiming, BECAUSE you are pious and a practicing Muslim, AOS and the process is against you.

My comments are within the Forum's boundaries and actually come from kindness(and maybe embarrassment for you).

Taking your advise...I reserved a lot of comments for myself in writing only this.

I wish you good health in mind and body
