A glance at Saudi government-approved fatwas
TAKING FLOWERS TO THE SICK:
— "This practice is impermissible as it entails wasting money on non-useful purposes and imitating Allah's adversaries in this custom."
RELATIONS WITH NON-MUSLIMS:
"A Muslim should not begin greeting the non-Muslims. However, when the Jews, Christians, or others offer Salam (greetings), he should reply "Wa 'Alaykum" (the same to you) ... These are some of the rights the non-Muslims have on Muslims. This also includes the right of being a good neighbor. You must not harm your non-Muslim neighbors. You should give them charity if they are needy."
"It is not permissible for a Muslim to follow the funeral of a Kafir (disbeliever), for this is considered an act of loyalty to them which is Haram (prohibited). However, consoling them is acceptable."
"Relationships based on mutual affection, love and brotherhood between a Muslim and a Kafir are prohibited. It might render a Muslim as a Kafir. There is nothing wrong, however, if the kind of relationship developed between the Muslim and Kafir does not go beyond selling and buying or accepting the Kafir's invitation to have lawful food with him or accepting a lawful present, provided that no harm is done to the Muslim's faith."

Pastorius, how's your friend doing with the Craigslist muslims? I know he has to be courteous and nonconfrontational because, after all, it's a job assignment. Those muslims seemed to be fitting into the "buying and selling and lawful food" parameters. But the guy did sort of sound like someone who had just spent a weekend being love-bombed by the Moonies.
Im interested too.
Um... since Stogie asked someone on his site, isn't it the "Lincoln" type beard with no mustache that is the correct "jihadist" style?
Just sayin'...
Being in that situation he should probably appear as clueless as possible as a professional and personal safety measure. But those sound like "moderate muslims" I would be verrrrrrry careful around.
