I thought this was an interesting article. I'm not sure about its source, but the magazine targets any extremist religion. The fact that we were mentioned gets me thinking about the great tribulation. Any Thoughts?

Interesting, so according to this article - the Muslim group "Tablighi Jamaat" (TJ)

is a peaceful, egalitarian and devotional movement that stresses individual faith and overall spiritual development. In a sense, TJ is a widespread training system that urges average Muslims to examine their own lives and become involved in calling their fellow Muslims back to orthodox Islam. Because of TJ's tactics, some Islamist groups refer to its members as "Muslim Jehovah's Witnesses" and accuse them of abandoning politics and jihad.

And their name means - Group for Preaching

Well, that does sound an awful lot like us - only the Muslim / Christian difference.

It is good to be recognized for being peaceful preachers who urge others to think and examine their lives and get them in harmony with "Christian" principles.

Good point Jerry. We are making a good witness in the Muslim community as well.

Muslims know us... sometimes, they admire us.

There are very few Muslims in our territory. I was wondering, what is their view of God's name? I know they refer to their god as Allah. Are they, like the Jews, aware of His name but superstitious about using it?

To a Muslim - there is no God, but Allah. It is one of their primary tenants. Now they don't seem to mind you calling him Jehovah - since you are not Muslim and don't know better ;-). The reasoning book has good info on how to approach. As always - use the kingdom message.
