My original thoughts on this threads were, IF the Muslims had showed up by the hundreds to donate blood to these gay victims, it would have sent a message to the ISIS terrorists that the Muslims support the US, not ISIS. That's the way to defeat ISIS, not by hiding them.
It is Ramadan so it would be hard for a lot of Muslims to donate because they are busy fasting.

I would expect that Muslims donate blood as often as say Catholics, Jews, or Lutherans do. Blood donations: religious and non-religious are equally generous
