Hillary Clinton posted a message to Muslims on Twitter that left many social media users asking questions.

As we begin Ramadan, I wish all Muslims a blessed time of reflection, family, and good health. Ramadan Mubarak. -H

Twitter users questioned Clinton’s use of “we” in her tweet and whether it meant she was now a Muslim as well.

@skorpyos @HillaryClinton Yes, thank you for supporting a religion that suppresses women’s rights and funds international terrorism.

@HillaryClinton I always hate when politicians have to make those phony announcements. Politicians should just refrain from it all.

@HillaryClinton The correct thing to write would be “As Ramadan begins”…unless you are Muslim. But I see what you’re trying to do.
