Is Islam The Most Discriminated Religion In The World? by Fulaman198(m): 6:32am On Nov 25, 2013 |
If so, how do my fellow Muslim brothers and sisters deal with the evil discrimination that people do. I see so many hateful threads in regards to Islam on this forum despite our high population in Nigeria. For the most part I try to ignore the it ignorant comments. How do you all deal with it? 4 Likes |

D lion'sheart: This is the kind of thing I am talking about people saying that Islam is violent (using a select group of people to judge almost 2 billion people). Should people say the same about Mexican drug cartels (aren't most Mexican people Catholic/Christian?) What about all the shootings that happen in the inner cities of America (America has a large Christian population), heck a lot of places in the Americas are like this. It's not the religion. 22 Likes |

If islam is violent we have over a billion Muslims, you lion'sheart won't be alive to even answer the question, you would have been killed. So what is the percent of the violent Muslim, less than 1% of its population. So much noise about bokoharam, what's the percentage of Christians killed compared to the Muslim, it's a know fact that they've killed more Muslims than Christians. 7 Likes |

Sissie: So what's the percentage of the violent Muslim who doesn't kill with weapons or belong to any terror groups but are extremist, aggressive, domineering, oppressive, incisive, violent in words and actions/inactions or deeds, and practices or preaches hates, segregation and discrimination of none Muslim? These are silent destructive weapons that kills a thousand times faster than nuclear weapons. Can u account for the percentage of Muslim faithful that subscribe to such? 17 Likes |

D lion'sheart: You can't use the actions of a select few human beings and say almost 2 billion people behave this way. Give me an example of practitioners of a particular religion that are without violence. It is not the religion but people themselves. 5 Likes |

I think that Islam is discriminated against especially in places where Muslims are a minority or are not in power. But some non Muslims may also claim to be discriminated against in Muslim populated areas. But on a general scale and given the acts of terrorism carried out by a few Muslim and the press coverage that gets, it is only expected that Muslims would be discriminated against. On your question about how we cope. I have spent more time around comfort zones where it doesnt matter that I am a Muslim. Beyond that zone, anyone who wants to discriminate against me would have to think twice because my head and shoulders are usually up high and I cannot be talked down on. Whatever problem relating with people I may have would usually not have to do with my religion. But I remember that when I was in secondary school, even though I was supposed to make prefect, it was whispered around that our SU principal just did not want that. It does not matter now though..I did way better than the prefects in my final exam..it was Allah's doing Here on NL though, some intolerant people just want to use the 'she is a Muslim' against deols even when the topic has nothing to do with Islam. Some assume that my opinion of certain things is religion based and that is just unfair. Generally, I think I haven't had to deal with much discrimination based on faith. 13 Likes |

Yes, there is discrimination agaisnt islam or muslims. No doubt about that. It sgould be condenmed and tackled. There are men who physically attack hijabi women. There are people who will not even speak to a muslim in the uk. I have first hand experience of this. Now, here is the flip side of the coin. Islam too can be discriminatory. Look at the popular islamic countries and see how they treat the christian and pagan minorities. They have policies that affect the freedom of non muslims. Atheism is not a religion but it faces a lot of religious discrimination. Ask any atheist in an islamic society. The discrimination is so open and accepted. Some might even go as far as saying that islam is the most intolerant religion. I do not hold this view but I can understand why some make this grandiose claim that will be hard to prove. They see terrorism as a part of islam which is wrong. Discrimination is bad, no matter who it happens to; muslim or not muslim. The whole point of my comment is to see discrimination from both sides. 6 Likes |

i hold dah view too. i see discrimination from both sides of the coin. buh Op, i want you to know that terrorists are not muslims. islam says: 'do unto your brother what you wud have done to you'. " do not oppress others and do not be oppressed" and so many other hadiths. so whoever doesnot follow these injunctions, the prophet sed 'fa laisa minni'.."he is not among us( i.e the ummah)". that means if yu really do know a muslim extremist or terrorist or 'violentists', then they have slipped out of the fold of islam and they are not of the ummah yu shudnt judge islam by one person's attitude. 6 Likes |

I think that title goes to the Jehovah's Witnesses. The way they get doors slammed on their faces daily, it's hard not to feel sad for them sometimes. We used to live around World Bank, Owerri, and we had this short-tempered, often unintentionally funny, angry fat man as a neighbour. This man was involved in a messy land battle against one of his nephews, and the case had gone to court. Anyway, when he finally got the phone call that he had LOST the court case, the dude was seething with so much anger, hate, rage, sweat, shouts and insults. Unlucky enough for the Jehovah's Witnesses, that was the same day they chose to pay him a visit. "Good afternoon, sir. I'm Kate, he's Amadi, this is little Chinenye, and we're Jehovah's Witnesses. We'd like to share, with you, the great news of Divine Salvation". "Onye nkea ọ shị ọtụ nne ya mere gịnị?" was his reply. Fat man wasn't about that life, and he quickly unleashed his alsatian dogs to teach them a lesson. That day, we saw lots of Usain Bolts and mini Usain Bolts. Shhitt happens, mehn. 11 Likes |
