I am not sure who authorized the new Muslim stamp. John(Jack) E. Potter is the U.S. Postal Service Postmaster General and CEO. He probably authorized the new stamp. I don't think stamps can be produced without the approval of the CEO.

USPS New 42-Cent Stamp Celebrates Muslim holiday?
Yes, there is a 42 cents stamp celebrating Muslim holiday. However it is not new. The stamp was first issued about two months before the 9/11 catastrophe. It has been reissued with each rise in postage.
Did Barack Obama authorize the Muslim stamp?
No he did not. In fact, he had nothing to do with it. The U.S. Postal Service has authorized a number of holiday stamps over the past fifteen years, and in 2001 (when President Bush was in office), a stamp honoring one of the Muslim holidays (Eid) was printed. This is not unusual-- there are stamps to honor Jewish and Christian holidays too. The Eid stamp was up-dated in 2009, when Mr. Obama was president, but again, he was not involved-- the stamp had been around since 2001.

What does the new 46 cent Muslim stamp say?
There have been commemorative stamps honoring a variety of religious holidays, including the Muslim holiday of Eid, for more than a decade-- long before President Obama took office. These holiday stamps are chosen by the U.S. Postal Service. President Bush had nothing to do with the first Eid stamp, nor did President Obama. However, that has not stopped internet myths about "Muslim stamps," usually claiming President Obama ordered them to be issued. He did not. I enclose a link to the actual story of the first U.S. stamps to honor a Muslim holiday, the ones issued back in 2001 (before the events of 9/11 had occurred, and at the time, considered totally unremarkable).
Has Obama ordered a Muslim postage stamp?
It is very doubtful that President Obama ordered a postage stamp based on the Muslim faith. According to an employee of the local Post Office, a stamp commenorating Muslim traditions has been released for the past 10 years or so. They are released this year (2013) with the Christmas holiday stamps. Since President Obama was not in office when the stamps started being released, it is highly doubtful that he had anything to do with the release of Muslim stamps.
