    Kumail's smile fading, then returning as he proceeds to side-eye Gayle calling him "Mail Nanjiani". Fricking priceless.

    He said something so profound so quickly/made me tear up before he quickly moved in to the next question: you struggle to hold on to your culture when the country you’re in doesn’t value it.

      akshay rathore my identity? The Muslim identity perhaps unlike other identities is deeply rooted in the religious aspect of the faith. Others are free to choose where there culture comes from. For example Hoda Khotbi was born Muslim has an Arab cultural upbringing, as adopted western values such as drinking alcohol. Does not make a her Muslim representative. Muslim ancestry ? Sure. But not Islam, the faith.

    Kumail is hilarious and I love him, so moving to hear his story about his wife’s recovery.
    He should be clear that he is not Muslim, which he has talked honestly about earlier in his career. He spoke so eloquently about Islam’s conservative insularism. Islam is problematic, the problem being thousands and thousands of crucified children, gay men and boys splattered on the pavement (including my uncle), women kept as sex slaves, dead non-believers, boys casually raped, beaten women who aren’t allowed to forge their own path in life, etc etc etc. All of this in our time. Happening at this moment. HELP THESE PEOPLE by talking honestly about this, and obliging muslims to do so as well, so that those like Majid Nawaaz and the feminist hero Ayaan Hirsi Ali who bravely try to reform Islam can be welcomed by the West instead of being humiliated by those of us liberals who think any criticism of Islam is racist (Islam isn’t a race) and is punching down (because these confused individuals believe Arabs and Pakistanis to be below them). We don’t need to lose the treasures of the lands of Islam such as:
