if i were bombarded with so much hatred about islam and muslims, i would probably act the same as she did.
it is not coming from her. it is coming from those who feed her hatred. so she is ignorant and you know what Allah swt says about them:

"And the servants of the Beneficent Allah are they who walk on the earth in humbleness, and when the ignorant address them, they say: Peace."

Al-Furqan, verse 63

so i would use the peaceful way out. like one brother/sister said, just smile

wassalam

You shouldve said yes and asked her the same kind of question if she a good person.

Just kidding. :)

Smile and ask her what she knows of Islam. (Give daw'ah and get two birdies with one stone... )

Walaikum salam warahmatullah

Maybe you could have said "what do you mean by good?" Maybe she has come across some not so practising muslims, maybe dating, drinking or whatever which goes against Islamic teachings and she has a bit of a background knowledge about Islam. She probably did not mean it in a bad way.

Walking away in my opinion is not good especially since you did not know her intention for asking, it is rude. How would you feel if someone did the same? Non muslims do not understand and if they are willing to speak to us I think we should do our part and listen and respond in a positive way unless they are really being hostile.

Living in the west, we come accross these type of people. A humble answer is most appropriate answer. These days there are lot of negative information about islam out there. Our job is to clear that one person at a time, when we can.
Like someone suggested asking her "what do you mean" would have open way for dawah.

W-Salam,

I would have said,

"I usually am...until my wife bugs me & I have to beat her up...She never understands that I am doing it for her own good! Silly-cow"

But then nobody will say this to me and then walk away! At least NOT on their two-feet ;)
