However, Islam, Christianity, Buddhist, etc. are not something you are by birth but, at some point, you must make an affirmation of faith by choice..
Once you're baptized you're a Christian whether you like it or not. And in most denominations you're baptized as an infant. You may reject Christianity later in life but that doesn't mean that whatever church baptized you accepts your rejection. There are some where you don't get baptized or go through any other such induction ceremony until you ask for it as an adultthe Amish are one denomination which operates on that model. -

Jews would still consider an ethnically Jewish person Jewish, even if they converted. The posted above you is correct. They'd be a messianic or Christian Jew. I know several and they themselves still call themselves Jewish (as their ethnicity), even if they believe in Jesus. In fact, they still celebrate Jewish holidays at home (not at synagogue) with their Jewish families - but also go to church for the Christian ones.
Sarah could be a non-practicing Muslim, but she might still consider herself Muslim, anyway? -

Well technically you have to actually practice islam and/or at least believe in the basic tenets to be a muslim. If you don't practice, then you're not regardless of who your family may be.
But however it should be noted that muslims are not recommended or encouraged to speculate on these kind of things since it's a personal issue and only God has the full knowledge of a person's faith. -

your comment doesn't make any sense. so because 'her' country would hang her for her acting, she can't be muslim? you know that the rules of a country do not represent a religion? for example if she was originally from morocco or lebanon, would you have said the same?

"She is muslim,I will not be sb68upporting the show, and encourage friends also."
Are you kidding me? Do you really think you're that much better than a Muslim? Wow. I guess you're just so much better than the rest of us. -

I love how so many people in this discussion think she's hot but can't bear the idea of thinking a woman's hot if she's Muslim.
I only came here cause I just saw an advert for Fairly Legal and thought ''mmm nice legs!''. Whether or not she's Muslim, I don't care and I'm not going to bother myself with finding out which parent came from which country, what school she went to and whether it was Catholic, Muslim, Maori, Flying Spaghetti Monster etc
And another thing, people like to act all high and mighty when it comes to Muslims because they think they're all terrorists, but it's not as if Islam is the only religion that has groups with extreme views within it. Just look at the Westboro Baptist Church or whatever. Maybe people shou16d0ld start interpreting their views as the views of all Christians and all white people. Hell, I can't think any Christian woman is hot now because if she's Christian she must share the same views as Fred Phelps! Therefore I must find out where her parents came from and what schools she went to to justify my feelings of lust towards her!!!
And me being as irreligious as irreligiously possible in the most irreligious way irreligiously imaginable (it seemed people were getting paid for using that word so I thought I'd chip in, too. Irreligiously, of course) I don't care whether she's religious or irreligious. I just think she's hot! -

You know, I don't give a crap either. I came here because she's smoking hot.
But really? You are going to group Westboro Baptist Church and Islamic terrorists together?
Saying mean things or being generally obnoxious is a pretty far cry from being a terrorist. -

From the bio, she went to Southern Methodist University. Dunno if the school disallows non-christians. She's married to a Texan white guy doubt if he's muslim. Just because if her dad or her granddad is a muslim doesn't necessarily mean she is muslim, look at Obama though I know some fools think he is.. Her mom may be christian and took her religion or maybe she just decided to not be religious on either side. For those don't want to see the show just because they "believe" she is muslim is really foolish. Plus she was in Maxim..err..yeah she's a muslim. as in leleleleleleleh.

houseaddict: You got it wrong. Many moderate, modernized Iranian Muslims themselves left Iran, escaped the Iranian Islamic Revolution because they cannot tolerate the rigid Islamic Sharia laws.
Shah of Iran Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and his family (they all Muslims) not related to Shahi family, Shah of Iran and family gone into exile the Shah of Iran was overthrown in a popular revolt in 1979 when Iranian Revolution deposed the Shah and replaced the pro-Western royal dictatorship with the largely anti-Western Islamic Republic of Iran. -

she is a Muslim. Tens of thousands of Christians escaped various religious based regimes in Europe. Catholics from Huguenots, Huguenots from Catholics. Lutherans and Catholics from Anglicans, Orthodox from Catholic, Catholic from Orthodox et etc.

Sarah Shahi may be Christian taking her Spanish mother Christian religion - strangely enough her Spanish mother having Persian name Mahmonir, therefore not sure whether her mother is a Christian or Persian Muslim.
Her father is a Muslim - descendants of Muslim Iranian king Fath Ali Shah Qajar.
Apparently Sarah Shahi is a non-practising Muslim.
Oh yeah here are her nude and scantily clad photos from Maxim

here's another link - Click thumbnails to enlarge image -

If she is in Muslim country Iran - the country where her father comes from, she be wearing hijab - head cover and long-sleeve loose-fitting clothes covering her body from head to toe. Heeheehee .
Violators wearing indecent clothes, scantily dressed or even mini-skirts can receive lashes, fines or imprisonment. -

I guess my answer was a little blurry, but I was just heading to the same conclusion as you, anna :). That she's simply not practicing islam as far as I know and it's pretty obvious considering her lifestyle and choices of participation.

You're not required to tell them your religion in the application process.
