American Muslims own guns for the same reasons as anyone else: for protection, for hunting and sport shooting, for gun and rifle collections or for their work. They also cite another factor: fear of persecution, at a time when hate crimes against Muslims have soared to their highest levels since the aftermath of 9/11. But owning a gun is no assurance of security. #Muslim gun owners are viewed with suspicion by gun stores, ranges and clubs. The photographer @amr.alfiky spoke to American Muslims who own guns. One of them, Hassan Shibly — who’s pictured in the first photo here — told us he “became a handgun owner reluctantly.” The 32-year-old is the son of Syrian immigrants. He has received death threats because of his advocacy on behalf of Muslims, he said, and mosques he attends near his home in Tampa have also been threatened. “It got to the point where people I know who are in law enforcement actually recommended that I take some means to make sure that I can protect myself and my family,” he said. Hassan owns 2 rifles, but has never had to fire them. “The solution to the problems we face is not more violence, or even more guns,” he said. “It is engagement, education, service, community organization, political involvement.” Swipe left to see more portraits, and watch our Instagram Story to hear from the people we interviewed.
