Awesome man, keeps you up!

awesome

If you do the readings you will do well in class. He cares a lot about students.

this course involves a lot of reading and a lot of in-class participation so you have to go to class but you definitely learn a lot and it gives you a new perspective on religion

granted that he is hard , but i learned so much from him . he keeps you up by calling on random people. so always be prepared to say something even if it is not relavent to the topic.

Very nice and very intelligent. Gives a lot of reading, but if you do it you will do fine. Essay tests, but he doesn't always seem to read them.

The reading an writing can be murder but if you keep up to date and show effort, you will do very well. He loves to help students and is VERY reasonable. All papers are quizes are fair, they are based on the readings and class discussions.

He is very reasonable. The writing can be murder but if you do the readings and pay attetion in class, it WILL pay off!! I highly recommend this professor, especially for those who don't really have a solid background. He will answer ALL questions!!

Good teacher, VERY well-spoken and intelligent, do the readings and pay attention, you'll learn a lot! Grades difficult, but a fair man nonetheless.

Fantastic professor with great information

Very nice person, but is very demanding. TONS of reading (can be boring if material is not interesting and well written) Can be too much at times (the class gave me a headache everyday, but the class kept me thinking all the time)

emmense reading. tests: read 80 pages and thern summerize the whole thing with gret detail in about two pages- so structural guidleines.but very enthusiastic

Dr. Munir's class, while difficult, allowed me to learn a massive amount of information, and more importantly, gain new perspective on the topic. The skills I learned there helped me get through graduate school, too.

Dr. Munir is a very nice guy who cares about his students. He can be tough at times, and expects you to work, but it can be well worth it.

dr. munir is the man. He ruins peoples****, especially the ones that think that they can do well without putting any work in. Overall great guy, great for those of us students who want to do well.. he will see this in you

whenever I'm in class, I just kept thinking him as one of the rapper. He expects you to do ALOT of reading, alot is not even the right word to explain the reading you have to do. but if you do your work, he's your man. I had fun in his class.

Very Hard but nice man

Great guy, very hard worker. His class can be tough at times but for the most part, not too hard. He makes himself easily available to students so it is easy to discuss grades and meet with him. Works hard at making students participate in class. Great class.

He's the man. His syllabus seems like alot but it actually isnt that bad. He's a great teacher that people should take! Munir for president!

Amazing teacher who loves his job and students. Very compassionate and willing to help in any way he is able. Confusing at first but easy to catch on to as long as youre willing to try.

Great teacher, very knowledgeable, great heart, a lot of work but worth it... You learn a lot...

Awesome teacher. Alot of work but so worth it and really cares about his students. He's only an **** in class if he thinks you're not making an effort.. it's really an easy concept to participate.

Religious studies. We went to Africa. He wasn't really my professor. That trip was one of the most important times of my life, and he went out of his way to make it happen for me. I don't think I would have liked to have him as a normal prof.

I took Dr. Munir for RELG 101. He is an excellent teacher. However, if you are not remotely interested in the topic of Religion, then you will probably dislike his class. You only get three readings, and 3 outlines plus one big project. Truthfully, not a lot of work and you learn a lot. It's worth taking if you want to learn. I love MUNIR!

Professor Munir is a GREAT teacher. Sometimes he is difficult to understand and not completely clear but if you pay attention and do the readings you will be fine. Oh, and don't forget to do the outlines! They're worth a lot. If you want to learn definitely take Munir!! 3 quizzes, no midterm, ten page paper with presentation. Not bad!

Religion is the worst class ever, but munir is a decent guy. You'll probably hate him in the beginning but he grows on you. Kind of arrogant but you get used to it. Doesn't really teach, you are the scholar. One ten page paper and a ten minute presentation. Tests are absolutely impossible. Nice guy, but the class is difficult.

one of my favorite teachers ever. real nice guy and very knowledgeable on the topic. i really enjoyed the class and didnt have to force myself to go. the class wasnt hard either. definitely take

He gives a fair amount of work and helps you out when needed. Three tests and a final, all easy A's. But he's an extremely tough grader when it comes to participation and the one 8 page research paper assigned. These can bring down your grade so make sure you work hard in those areas! Overall good class.

At first, I was quite nervous to take his class because of all the poor reviews on this website, but I can honestly say he will forever be one of my favorite teachers that I've had in college. He genuinely cares about the success of his students and if you do your work right, you will have no problem succeeding in his class. Best teacher by far!!!!

Very nice professor and on of my personal favorites here at Siena. People don't like him because they don't want to go to class and have discussions, which is something you must be able to do to take this class. Other than that he is very knowlegable and I was able to get an A- in the class by simply doing the work, not tough as others describe him

Dr. Munir is an extremely knowledgable man, and it is very clear that he is passionate about what he is teaching. Although his religion may be different than yours, it never feels as though he is forcing it on you. He presents many different religions and shows both their ups and downs. The only tough part about him is that he is a tough grader.

I love Dr. Munir!!! At first, I was so scared, but he is a great guy. Not a lot of grades at all and never forces his religion on you. Just pay attention in class and study for the exams and you will do fine. I managed to get an A . Participate at least once every class and he'll love you!

AMAZING! I have NO IDEA what any of the other bad reviews are talking about. There is literally only ONE easy argumentative paper that you have to present, a midterm, and an ORAL final. Munir is all about participation. If you participate and show genuine interest every class, you will get an A. He will be great and appreciative of you, if you do.

Dr. Munir was my favorite professor this semester. He cares very much about the subject of religion, and wants you to care as well. There is no textbook, but there are a lot of readings. Sometimes his criteria and expectations can be confusing, so make use of his office hours. Pro tip- volunteer for the Islam final paper group!!!

Professor Munir can come across confusing at first, but once you understand his class and Chicago Style its a breeze. He expects everyone to answer a question about every class but he will always make you feel good about your work. Do all the assignments because they will make this class an easy pass. ASK TO PRESENT IN THE FIRST GROUP!

Dr. Munir is a great guy and a great professor. He is hilarious (although sometimes I don't think he intends to be). It can be difficult to understand him at times due to some convoluted wording, but if you ask him to clarify or for help, he is caring and accommodating. Overall great professor but could be more clear in lecture and with assignments

These ratings made me scared to take this class, Dr. Munir ended up being much more caring and lenient than these made him out to be. He's understanding about grading late assignments if you're honest with him. He is very passionate about what he teaches. He's confusing at times but always willing to clarify. Not many assignments. Answers emails.

Prof. Munir is one of my favorite professors at Siena and genuinely cares about the success of his students. His assignments may be confusing, but he provides clarification if needed. He is available to meet with outside of his classes and is clearly passionate about his work. He is always a friendly face when you pass him in the halls.

Dr. Munir starts out very confusing in the beginning but once you understand what he wants his class is very easy. A couple outlines in a specific way, not bad. One final paper and presentation on it, and a written mid term, he grades both very generously. He just want you to participate in class and you'll do fine.

He will get mad if he doesn't hear class participation. He is VERY loud -- he's not angry, but his voice is always raised. He's passionate. He clearly cares a lot about what he teaches, and if you pay your dues and make it to class, you'll be fine. His accent isn't that bad. Y'all are just mean.

Munir is experienced, understanding, and a bit loud, but a good professor. Show up, be ready to participate in lectures, STUDY because he will give you all the information but you must write your answers descriptively as in the lecture. Do the minimum and you will receive a B at minimum.

I could not say more amazing things about Munir. I took him for my history of Islam class, and although it was a tough class, I left class every day with more knowlege than when I came in. He requires a lot of reading and a lot of work outside of the class, but the knowledge he brings to the classroom is beyond compare.

Dr Munir is a sweet caring man who genuinely cares about your success in his class. He just wants you to try your hardest. My only critique would be that he is a slightly unclear with the citation format of his choice. TIP: CHOOSE THE ISLAM UNIT

I loved this guy, he knew how to make a classroom full of exhausted college students willing engage in class during an 8 AM lecture. His personality is amazing, and he really does care about his students. He can be a tough grader at times, but overall gives you the grade you deserve. I would recommend taking notes, as tests are note-heavy.
