Your question is hard to answer because the question is either silly or poorly phrased! Not every person of the Muslim faith dislikes every person of the Jewish faith. It is like asking why do all Jews eat bagels? Try asking something like why does there seem to be such a history of anatagonism between people the two faiths? I am not jewish or muslim but I knwo alot of people of both faiths who could care less, hate each, or are great friends. Then again I know alot of people who can stand any of the semitic peoples and yes Arabs are semitic too. People just dont like other people and religion is usually a really good reason to hate.

I am assuming that since you are muslim, from Texas and have what is obviously ‘straight’ hair that you are either Somali, Ethiopian or possibly Kenyan. I say this because I know there is a high concentration of those communities in Texas. Therefore your ethnic background is more Arabic than it is what people think of when they say ‘african.’ Here I am also assuming that when people say african/african-american they are thinking of people of West African descent with the following features, full lips, wide nose, kinky hair, little to no body hair anywhere other than the head, underarms and genital areas. You on the other hand probably have thinner lips,a straight nose and most important to this discussion hair which is ‘straight’ and relative abundance of fine straight body hair. Your racial heritage and therefore your hygenie habits would be closer to that of the white, asian/indo-asian peoples of the world. The practices which constitute good hygenie for you, i.e daily hair washing and shaving do not constitute good hygenie for someone like me who has a west african racial heritage. My hair is very very kinky and would suffer from over washing. I do not have much body hair and so I do not need to shave my body very often. As a matter of fact, my mother has even less body hair than I and has never shaved her legs, you would not know that by looking at her since her legs are practically hairless. Your question bespeaks a poor understanding of the fact that not all so called black people have the heritage and what may be right for you with your heritage may not be right for someone else with another.
