In Washington DC, there are some Pakistani Americans who are working to enhance the image of Pakistan throughout the world; Amina Khan is on the top of the list. Besides being a lawyer she is also an interfaith activist as well as the chapter head of AOPP -- Association of Pakistani professionals, who are at the forefront of branding Pakistan as a progressive secular country. Amina also worked with the Department of Energy during the Clinton administration and worked on Policy development regarding the nuclear sites within America. Despite the effects of 911, Amina says that as a Pakistani-Muslim-American her experiences working for the Department of Energy and for the FBI, were memorable and on merit, though she had to face some difficult odds.

  • @patcar12345 she just gave herself as an exampe as a decent 'non-extremist' muslim in society. What do you think the media does only exposes the 2% of extremists in the islamic community, that is the reason why she is trying to make a better image.

  • Hey what you wanna say about Blasphemy law in damn Pakistan, you Muslims are killing Christan and Hindu every day. Pakistan is most fanatical country in world. All Muslims are not bad but in Pakistan they are feed with wrong history all the time.

  • @MrKathraj

    btw who told u than women in Pak dont wear jeans or T's ??

  • @pythonjibraltar

    u dont become infidel by just not wearing hijab ! don't spread false information based on your negative thinking !

  • Madam it would be much better if you speak to your own Pakistani People. You should give thanks to Christian GOD that you have equal right to express your views in America, Britain or any Christian country. Other who is going to listen you in Muslim nation, specially in your country Pakistan. Read Bible and be a True person of True GOD. Other wise you are just an actress.

  • Seriously....Do you really think that doing a job to live a respectable life has something to do with nationality or religion? I am really amazed if you think this way

  • Well Amina, whatever you are doing has nothing to do with America or Pakistan or any religion. You are living a peaceful livelihood and that is the only positive aspect of your life. What else do you think you are doing exceptional?

  • God commanded women to wear head covering or be bald?

    1 Corinthians 11:5 But any woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered disgraces her head, for it is one and the same thing as having a shaved head. 11:6 For if a woman will not cover her head, she should cut off her hair. But if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, she should cover her head.

  • Praise the lord. May more Muslims open up and see that Christian is the real religion of God.

  • GOD BLESS U
