American Muslim leaders and activists inspired feelings of hope and action on social media to move forward as one country. While feelings of despair and anger were apparent, for many Muslim activists and leaders, it was a time to return to the remembrance of God. With hope, determination and absolute trust in God, Muslims analyzed this as a positive situation. They emphasized on the requirement of building communities and bridging gaps, learning from the life of the Prophet (saw) and assessing possibilities to unite as one nation under God.
