Abstract

i Since the discovery of America, religion and creed were the subject matter of people’s lives in the United States of America. The problem of true freedom of religion and much more precisely freedom of creed is not completely guaranteed in reality. As a study field, it keeps attracting a large number of scholars as time goes by. Entitled “Freedom of Creed in America; Case of Islam”, the work sheds light on the reality of the existence of freedom of creed in the US for all religions and precisely Islam and whether it is realized by the American government or not along the whole American history. This research seeks to determine whether America as a nation and as a government guarantees the right of freedom of creed and religion or not. The emphasis in this work is on “the existence of freedom of creed and religion” as the main strand that makes American people and Muslims free. The study is limited in a way, though it deals with the whole American religious history, the researcher has focused on the modern epoch which has a lot of dramatic changes, following the Descriptive- historical method, and since there is a lot of data to be gathered and represented for the reader the close suitable research type is going to be qualitative. Throughout the work we find some astonishing results about the major role of Islam in changing the States into a better nation, about the appearance and the increase of Islamophobia in the States, about the permanent discrimination in the States, and many more results.
