    A friend of mine is a devout Muslim from a very conservative family and a doctor: he believes that his faith has no place in his job and therefore treats all his patients equally.

    I think fundamentalists of all religions should take a leaf out of his book.

      Please give him my gratitude for his level of professionalism. I mean it. We need more people like your doctor friend in the world today.

      His faith demands he treat all patients equally:

      “whoever saves a life, it will be as if they saved all of humanity” Qur’an 5:32

      Nor can he impose his beliefs on others:

      “Let there be no compulsion in religion” Qur’an 2:256
