The Japanese are a very evolved race.
Have you ever read in the newspaper that a political leader or a prime minister from an Islamic nation has visited Japan?
Have you ever come across news that the Ayatollah of Iran or the King of Saudi Arabia or even a Saudi Prince has visited Japan?
Japan is a country keeping Islam at bay. Japan has put strict restrictions on Islam and ALL Muslims.
The reasons are:
a) Japan is the only nation that does not give citizenship to Muslims.
b) In Japan permanent residency is not given to Muslims.
c) There is a strong ban on the propagation of Islam in Japan.
d) In the University of Japan, Arabic or any Islamic language is not taught.
e) One cannot import a 'Koran' published in the Arabic language.
f) According to data published by the Japanese government, it has
given temporary residency to only 2 lakhs, Muslims, who must follow
the Japanese Law of the Land. These Muslims should speak Japanese and
carry their religious rituals in their homes.
g) Japan is the only country in the world that has a negligible number
of embassies in Islamic countries.
h) Japanese people are not attracted to Islam at all.
I) Muslims residing in Japan are the employees of foreign companies.
j) Even today, visas are not granted to Muslim doctors, engineers or
managers sent by foreign companies.
k) In the majority of companies it is stated in their regulations that
no Muslims should apply for a job.
l) The Japanese government is of the opinion that Muslims are
fundamentalist and even in the era of globalization they are not
willing to change their Muslim laws.
m) Muslims cannot even think about renting a house in Japan.
n) If anyone comes to know that his neighbor is a Muslim then the
wholeneighborhood stays alert.
o) No one can start an Islamic cell or Arabic 'Madrasa' in Japan
p) There is no Sharia law in Japan.
q) If a Japanese woman marries a Muslim then she is considered an
outcast forever.
r) According to Mr. Kumiko Yagi, Professor of Arab/Islamic Studies at
Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, "There is a mind frame in Japan
that Islam is a very narrow minded religion and one should stay away
from it."
s) Freelance journalist Mohammed Juber toured many Islamic countries
after 9/11 including Japan. He found that the Japanese were confident
that extremists could do no harm in Japan.
My personal estimation of the Japanese has risen dramatically!
VERY SMART PEOPLE INDEED…..

I am American and I have a 30 year old daughter teaching HS Englush as an assistant in Saitama Perfecture. I want her to visit a masjid for Ramadhan and Eid. She needs to make a few friends who are Muslim. Please let me know of events or friendly Muslims.

There is a popular email going around that reveals how difficult the Japanese make it for Islam to take hold in Japan. Having lived in Japan some time ago, I have a bit of personal insight to add. So before you consider packing up and running off to Japan, take note of the following:
(If BNI reader, Becky, in Japan, is reading this, perhaps she can add something here)
Did you Know????
Have you ever read in the newspaper that a political leader or a prime minister from an Islamic nation has visited Japan? (Hard to believe. Indonesia’s PM seems likely to have visited Japan)
Japan, a country keeping Islam at bay, Japan has put strict restrictions on Islam and ALL Muslims. (Japan puts strict restriction on ALL foreigners, period)
The reasons are:
a) Japan is the only nation that does not give citizenship to Muslims. (Japan makes it exceeding difficult, if not nearly impossible, for any foreigner, Muslim or otherwise, to become a citizen)
b) In Japan permanent residency is not given to Muslims. (Rarely, if ever given to any other foreigners either)
c) There is a strong ban on the propagation of Islam in Japan. (Not that I could find)
TURKISH MOSQUE OF TOKYO
d) In the University of Japan, Arabic or any Islamic language is not taught.(There is no ‘University of Japan,’ but there are many universities in Japan, one of which I attended. Back then, Arabic was not taught at Waseda Univ, but I doubt that is the case today in every university)
e) One cannot import Koran published in Arabic language. (False)
f) According to data published by Japanese government, it has given temporary residency to only 2 lakhs Muslims, who need to follow the Japanese Law of the Land. These Muslims should speak Japanese and carry their religious rituals in their homes. (It is reported there are some 10,000+ Muslims in Japan, many are workers from Indonesia who have work visas and others are Japanese converts to Islam. Yes, all must follow Japanese laws)
g) Japan is the only country in the world that has a negligible number of embassies of Islamic countries. (Absolutely not true. See list here: Japan Ministry of Foreign Affairs)
h) Japanese people are not attracted to Islam at all. (Wrong, considering there are many Japanese converts to Islam)
i) Muslims residing in Japan are the employees of foreign companies. (Many are, but not all)
j) Even today visas are not granted to Muslim doctors, engineers or managers sent by foreign companies. (As stated before, working visas are hard to come by in Japan, but I am sure some have been issued to professionals listed above)
k) In the majority of companies, it is stated in their regulations that no Muslims should apply for a job. (Another point I find hard to believe)
l) The Japanese government is of the opinion that Muslims are fundamentalist and even in the era of globalization, they are not willing to change their Muslim laws. (Japan changes its laws for no one, Muslim or otherwise. All must obey Japanese laws)
m) Muslims can not even think about getting a rented house in Japan.(Preposterous)
n) If anyone comes to know that his neighbor is a Muslim then the whole neighborhood stays alert. (I have no idea how they come up with this information. The Japanese as a whole are very welcoming and friendly to foreigners living there)
o) No one can start an Islamic cell or Arabic Madarsa in Japan (There are several mosques in Japan)
MOSQUE OF KOBE
p) There is no personal (Sharia) law in Japan. (True)
q) If a Japanese woman marries a Muslim then she is considered an outcast forever. (In many Japanese families, a woman is an outcast for marrying any non-Japanese)
r) According to Mr. Komico Yagi (Head of Department, Tokyo University) There is a mind frame in Japan that Islam is a very narrow minded religionand one should stay away from it. (Head of WHAT department? This is just common knowledge about Islam)
s) Freelance journalist Mohammed Juber toured many countries after 9/11 including Japan. He found that the Japanese were confident that extremists could do no harm in Japan. (I believe that Islamic extremists would have a harder time of making trouble in Japan than in other countries, but it’s not impossible. Remember the Sarin gas attack in the Tokyo subway some years ago?)
