She’s Pashtun (Pakistani), not arab, but she is a practicing Muslim.
She was fighting against the Taliban’s ban on girls from education, which is not a feature of the rest of the muslim world. It’s a feature of extreme fundamentalism, of any religion, not of Islam.
Did you read her book? I have it on my TBR list but it is a long list. I usually like to read fiction but try to do a nonfiction/memoir in about every 3-4 books (I read about 5/wk which varies d/t length).
Malala Yousafzai
Edit: a couple corrections.

Thanks you.
