Part of the reason why Islamic NGO staff make the assumption that all

"Western" humanitarian aid is motivated by a missionary impulse is that their own activity — for instance in Chad — combines implicit or explicit proselytisation with work in refugee camps, construction of schools, hospitals, wells, and the distribution of medicine

The reason for suspicion is that Muslim charities have, in the past at least, been
sources of funding for terrorism.
