AUDIO: Q&A With ‘TheMuslimGuy.com’: Arsalan Iftikhar

Date Posted: May 24, 2010 

From “Visions and Voices” (co-sponsored by WFIU Radio and Indiana University) 

Arsalan Iftikhar likes to call himself a “freelance hustler.” A human rights lawyer by training, over the years he’s become a fixture on CNN, NPR and other media outlets. Iftikhar is working, he says, to reframe the discussion about Islam. 

“I think it’s very important for Muslims, both here in America and worldwide, to tell our own narrative,” Iftikhar says. “For far too long after 9/11 we had a bunch of old white guys telling Muslims how we should act or how we should feel.” 

Iftikhar says too often Islam and Muslims are portrayed as violent, radical or extremist. He says he’s working to counter those stereotypes and as well as other misconceptions people may hold of the faith and its practitioners.
