Loving Muslim Filipino embraced by two kinds of American (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

amorous

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'loving muslim' is the definition.
'amorous' can be an answer for 'loving' (I've seen this in another clue). I'm unsure of the 'muslim' bit.

'filipino embraced by two kinds of american' is the wordplay.
'filipino' becomes 'moro' (I've seen this in another clue).
'embraced by' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'two kinds' becomes 'a' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'of american' becomes 'US' (United States).
'a'+'us'='aus'
'moro' going into 'aus' is 'AMOROUS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for amorous that I've seen before include "Expressing love" , "Affectionate, enamoured" , "Relating to love" , "Lovong" , "Loving, passionate" .)
