One of the kindest people I know is Muslim

I'd like to hear more about this person.  Is it a male or female?  A relative, friend, or aquaintance?  How did you learn this person is mooslum?  All voluntary, of course.  Just curious.  What activity was it that was deemed kind?  How much and which denomination of Islam do they follow?

Guy who calls people antisemitic simply for criticizing Israel is shocked there might be a single nice Muslim

Male.  Indian. Sunni. Engineer.  I hired him.  Managed him.  Managed a manager of him.  Worked on a different team as him later as more peer situation.  Had lunch, etc. for a decade.  Spent time in and occasionaly outside of work.  We discussed religion.  He prayed privately at work.  Arranged marriage.  Warm eyes.  Smiles.  Open body language.  Attentive.  Soft-spoken.  Listens without interruption.  Warm with collegues and difficult people in difficult situations.  Brought Indian food from home to share with collegues.  Mentored others and had knowledge sharing sessions.   You just instantly feel relaxed and not threatened.  More giver than taker.  Didn't drink, gamble, make money off interest,  complain, raise his voice, not argumentive.  Respected where we ate.  Hand over heart humble. 

More Christlike than most Christains.

No burka that I'd seen.  Yes been invited to his apartment a few times. Wife does not speak english and I did not interact with her much.  They recently moved...

I worked with a Muslim girl who wore blue jeans inside and a burka outside.  First time I joined her team on a large lunch outing I had no idea who it was.
