The Egyptian revolution is a sign of hope for the Muslim world. I salute Egypt's youth for their peaceful protest, despite subversive attempts to incite violence. Despite suffering nearly 300 casualties, the Egyptian revolution was a largely peaceful revolution.
This revolution is a sign of political and inter-religious unity, and a promising sign of future Egyptian prosperity. But there is fear that this revolution will cause a rejection of everything the previous regime stood for, even its salient features.
As an American and a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, I love my nation because it champions universal religious freedom and secularism. Egypt must take heed; America's story demonstrates that religion and secularism can coexist. Revolution need not mean rejection.
