I think what Someone said is right... and the first bit of ExDeath:
"...we're talking about an issue that most of us here on the DN aren't able to comprehend in the same sense as DinkDoodler himself is due to the simple fact of our own nationalities and religions, the way things are around us, and standard prejudices."
Someone who doesn't live in a religion or community like that just won't be able to understand what it's like, to be able to give good advice that properly fits the situation. I don't know how it works in Islam, but maybe the best thing to do would be to ask the advice* of someone you respect in your community (Imam?) who could talk to her about her life in general and help her. Someone with experience, not someone who will be too religious and push it down her throat, that's not what she needs at all right now.
Edit: *I don't mean take responsibility for her, that's not your job and she would probably be angry anyway but of course you could be worried for her.
