An average Muslim in India feels more strongly for someone in Palestine more than he feels for his Hindu brother in Kashmir.
This is the basis of the conflict within the Indian society.
Indian Muslims should start putting the nation over the idea of Ummah.
In the land of 330 million gods, more than 300,000 mosques are allowed to announce on
#loudspeakers
"There is no god but Allah" five times in a day.
And still, India is an intolerant country.
If Muslims are also religiously persecuted in Pakistan and they want asylum in India, then what was the point of creating Pakistan in the first place?
#CitizenshipAmendmentAct
It is anti-Hindu bigots and mental slaves of Arabs and Turks like
@RanaAyyub
who are a curse on Indian society and who bring a bad name to the whole Muslim community by exposing their own hypocrisy every single day.
Sunni Muslims cannot practice freely in Iran.
Shia Muslims cannot practice freely in Saudi Arabia.
Ahmediyya Muslims cannot practice freely in Pakistan.
The place where Shia, Sunni and Ahmediyya Muslims have the right to freely practice their faith is India.
Invaders have plundered this country and desecrated its important symbols for centuries.
Today, we don't have to defend the acts of invaders, we have to restore the glory of this civilization together.
Let's return what was never ours in the first place.
We, as Muslims, have a habit of idolizing and glorifying our hooligans, criminals & radicals and then we wonder why other communities look at us with suspicion.
We need more of APJ Abdul Kalams and not Burhan Wanis and Mukhtar Ansaris.
I have a dream, that one day critical mass in my community sees Mukhtar Ansari for the dreaded criminal he was and not see how he served them
One day our Indian state will be adequate to handle such gangsters, so that they don't become 'Robinhoods'
One day, Muslims will have
We need to do some serious introspection because:
India:
Hindu vs Muslim
Myanmar:
Buddhist vs Muslim
Israel:
Jews vs Muslim
France:
Christians vs Muslim
China:
Atheist vs Muslim
Afghanistan
Sikh vs Muslim
Iran:
Parsis vs Muslim
Yemen:
Muslim vs Muslim
Krishna is a symbol of perfection in every field. He is a singing, dancing, laughing celebration of life itself.
On the occasion of Janamashtami, sharing my video of playing "Shri Hari Stotram" for Krishna, an avatar of Lord Vishnu. Hope you all like it. 🙏
If Muslims have been an oppressed minority in India since the independence, how is the Waqf Board the third-largest land owner after Railways and Defence?
As Indian Muslims we couldn't stop talking about Palestine, many of our Hindu fellow citizens also joined us.
Now, when Hindus are facing ethnic genocide in our neighbourhood, we can't even acknowledge it let alone raise our voice against the injustice.
Why?
After the Afghan quake, India has sent shipments of assistance including 30,000 MTs of wheat, 13 tons of medicines & 500000 Covid doses before everyone else.
OIC & Muslim world should also react as fast when actual people are hurt and not just sentiments.
India is a beautiful country of progress where leftist Hindus are writing articles, holding discussions and organizing protests to reform Hinduism, while leftist Muslims are writing articles, holding discussions and organizing protests to reform Hinduism.
#AlQaida
Chief Al Zawahiri praises Muskan Khan, says Muslims are oppressed in a Hindu democracy.
If
#Muskan
was in
#Afghanistan
, she would not be allowed to even go to school, forget wearing
#Hijab
or not.
Muslims are oppressed in Afghanistan, not India.
We only vote on the basis of religion, on the basis of who is going to serve the interests of the Muslim community.
And we want Hindus to only vote on the basis of progress, development and nation-building.
This was bound to backfire one day.
India is not secular because of a modern constitution.
India is secular because that is how the Hindu thinks; respect and tolerance for all modes of worship is part of Hindu ethos and civilisation.
As an Indian Muslim, I have no problem in accepting this.
Muslims of today are not responsible for the atrocities committed by the likes of Aurangzeb & Babur.
But at the same time, we need to stop claiming that we ruled on this country for 800 years.
Those who identify with invaders will be treated as outsiders.
If this is the state of oppressed, victimized, scared Musalman in India, I wonder what would a confident, aggressive, violent Musalman would look like...
A man who can stop me is yet to be born. If I give this crowd a signal you will have to run. - Akbaruddin Owaisi to a police officer. Owaisi had earlier claimed Muslims will show a billion Hindus their place if the police was removed for 15 minutes.
Dara hua Musalman indeed.
Indian Muslims are fortunate to reside in a secular and democratic nation that upholds progressive values. I consider myself fortunate to be living in Hindu-majority India than in Muslim-majority Pakistan...

@Amana_Ansari
In a country like India, where Muslims are perennially oppressed and victimized since Independence, how is the Waqf Board the third largest land owner in the country after Indian Army and the Railways?
Afghans invaded and looted India for a thousand years, but still, today India is a 3 trillion dollar economy while Afghanistan is an economic disaster.
This is the difference between two nations that India is still helping Afghanistan in its difficult time.
If the Indian Muslims who like listening to music, being in relationships and wearing western clothes were living in
#Palestine
, they would be executed by
#Hamas
before the Israelis.
We should be thankful we live in a country that gives us absolute freedom of thought.

Lashkar-e-Taiba Chief Hafiz Saeed sentenced to 32 years in jail for terror financing.
My thoughts and prayers with the staff of Scroll, Quint and The Wire in their difficult time.
In Saudi Arabia, if you post a tweet in the support of Hamas, action will be taken against you by the State.
An Indian Muslim can take out a rally in support of terror groups without any consequences.
India is not even doing its fascism properly.
Tata Group, run by a Parsi family, grows bigger in size than the entire GDP of Pakistan.
If India had an anti-minority agenda, this small community that arrived in India as religiously persecuted refugees could not become so successful on merit.
India’s missiles are named Agni, Prithvi and Akash, showing a strong connect with nature.
Pakistan’s missiles are called Abdali, Babur, Ghaznavi, who reflect loot and plunder & who murdered and raped the ancestors of modern-day Muslims of the subcontinent.
It is important to compare the freedom of religion in India and Pakistan.
What is the reason that, in India, more than 5 lakh mosques are allowed to chant Azaan 5 times a day but in Pakistan, even celebrating a festival is banned?
Why this huge difference?
"Vikas Dubey killed in an encounter"
-How can justice happen on the streets? The police interrogation would have revealed truth.
"Taher Hussain confesses to orchestrate Delhi Riots"
-How can you believe this Police interrogation? The justice will happen on the streets.
"Indian Muslims ought to derive their heritage and pride from a profound connection to the land rather than affiliations with foreign cultures like Arabs, Turks, Persians or Mughals..."

Proud moment for all three media houses for winning this medal of honour. 👏👏
That awkward moment when even a

Moment of introspection for the perennial patient of victimhood syndrome

There is Shiva within everyone, the Adiyogi, who is Akaal and Anant, beyond time and space.
It was a magical feeling playing "Har Har Shambhu" siting near Mount Kailash, the Shiva's abode.
"I am pure consciousness and bliss.
I am Shiva! I am Shiva!"
I come from two Indias.
In one,
@RanaAyyub
is allowed to travel abroad because its "just 10-12 crore"
In another,
@imAkbarOwaisi
gets acquitted on his hate speech against Hindus because "not enough evidence".
But in both, Muslims are victims of oppression.
It's amazing how those who were saying there should be legal action for hurting religious sentiments yesterday have turned full free speech absolutists today...
Jews constructed Temple Mount over Al Aqsa Mosque.
Hindus constructed Ram Mandir over Babri Masjid.
Christians constructed Church of Constantinople over Hagia Sophia mosque.
Why do all the communities build their holy sites only over the mosques!
You cannot hate Hinduism and love India at the same time.
While India is home to all the world's religions and faiths that co-exist together in harmony as an example of unity in diversity, but the bedrock of this diverse society are the Vedic traditions.
If Muslims in India are victims of religious persecution, why would more Muslims from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh want to come and seek asylum here?
#CitizenshipAmendmentAct
I don't want Rohingyas to come to India because I am told that Muslims are oppressed here, and I don't want my Muslim brothers and sisters to come and get oppressed here...
This is what being grateful looks like.
Being a refugee does not mean demanding special rights, blocking roads for prayers, trashing native culture, refusing to adapt and imposing your religion on the natives of the country that gave you refuge.
We always wanted Hindus to vote on progress, development and education;
while we always voted on who can appease our community the most.
This was going to backfire one day.
Those who identify with the outsiders, will be treated as outsiders. There is no rocket science behind this.
We need to be connected to our roots, to the soil we are born into, that is our true nature.

This is total madness. What’s the need to glorify Turk invaders in India? While there’s no relation between racist Turks and the Indian Muslims?
What’s the connection between Milad, Turks, and
All eyes should also be on Nigeria where Boko Haram has massacred more than 10,000 Christians in 2024 alone.
All eyes should also be on Iraq where ISIS has killed and trafficked more than 15,000 innocent Yazidis.
Innocent lives matter everywhere.
An average Indian today doesn't hate multi-billionaires like Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani, instead he wants to become like them.
This is not the era of 1970s and 1980s.
Constantly attacking Ambani and Adani is not going to help the opposition in any way.
This article by Adhiraj Parthasarathy and Saurabh Seth says:
"Madrasas are one of the last remaining outposts of classical learning and knowledge..."
I don't understand where the confidence comes from in these leftist Hindus...

It is very insulting for Indian Muslims when Gulf countries imagine themselves to be our guardians.
Gulf countries should stop interfering in India's internal matters.
It's easy to ask Hindus to condemn their extremists.
It's easy to ask Jews to condemn their extremists.
It's easy to ask Christians to condemn their extremists.
But do we, as Muslims, condemn our extremists without any denial and conspiracy theories?
Akbaruddin Owaisi visits tomb of
#Aurangzeb
as Shivling is found in the premises of
#Gyanvapi
mosque.
In his bigotry against Hindus, Owaisi forgot that he is a Shia and Aurangzeb not only persecuted Hindus but Shias also.
A Saudi citizen is arrested for helping a non-Muslim enter the city of Makkah.
On the other hand, there are more than 50 mosques in the city of Ayodhya itself.
Former is a beautiful example of communal harmony, the latter shows how Hindus are intolerant.
It's true that Muslims are more backward than Dalits, SCs, STs and OBCs in India.
But the Hindu community is not responsible for this condition of Muslim society.
This was bound to happen as we refused to adopt modern scientific education for generations.
Remembering the Black Day when Kashmiri Hindus were asked to Convert, Flee or Die.
This was a monumental human tragedy, one that we should never forget.

Celebrating Holi in Vrindavan was the most colourful experience ever.
I liked Prem Mandir the most with beautiful paintings depicting the scenes from Ramayana and Mahabharata.
Please suggest other sites in Mathura, Vrindavan that I can visit next time. ❤
The 5 great ancient civilisations were Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, Mesoamerica and India.
Out of these 5, only Indian civilization survives and thrives, because ancient Indians understood the importance of rhythm and poetry to preserve their knowledge.
We can invite the former head of the terrorist organization, Hamas, as a guest speaker in a rally on the Indian soil.
How much more freedom we, as Indian Muslims, want in this country?
How much more understanding do we expect from the Hindu community?
Now we should not complain when we see a rise in "Islamophobia", which is nothing but a reaction to extremism.
We have to acknowledge the deep-rooted problems in our community. Those who are silent on this atrocity would be counted with the perpetrators.
Monuments like Taj Mahal, Red Fort and Agra Fort were sponsored on Indian wealth and built by Indian architects & Indian labourers.
If
#Mughals
brought this architecture into India, we would have seen similar structures in Uzbekistan and Afghanistan today.
The inauguration of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya is correcting a 500 year old blunder committed on the Indian soil.
Every Indian irrespective of religion should celebrate this.
It's not Hindu vs Muslim, it's Indian vs Invader.

When gangster Atiq Ahmed was killed, then Muslims were not safe in Uttar Pradesh.
Now, another gangster Anil Dujana is encountered in Uttar Pradesh, is this the rise of Hinduphobia, by the same logic?
India is a country where...

Jinnah waali Azaadi
Har ghar se Burhan niklega,
Afzal hum sharminda hain
Bharat ki barbadi tak
#IndiaWithPFI
...are Freedom of Speech
Jai Shri Ram
Bharat Mata Ki Jai
Happy Ram Navami
...are Hate Speech
In the presence of minorities including Sikhs, Christians, Buddhists, Parsis and Jains, why was the Minister of Minority Affairs always a Muslim?
And what is the 'Ministry of Minority Affairs' doing in a 'Secular' country anyway?
Atiq Ahmed's son Asad Ahmed has been killed in an encounter with the UP police.
My thoughts and prayers are with Arfa Khanum Sherwani, Rana Ayyub and Muhammad Zubair in their difficult time.
We stand with
@NIA_India
in the crackdown against the extremist organization Popular Front of India (PFI).
Radicalization of any kind should not be tolerated in the country.

If India is a 'secular' country that should not make any laws based on religion, then why are there minority institutions and minority welfare schemes in India?
This is the first time that we have seen such "death of law and order" in the state of Uttar Pradesh.
For 42 years, when

In the Canadian Parliament, Justin Trudeau honoured Yaroslav Hunka, a veteran of a Nazi division that participated in the genocide of Jews.
India is closely monitoring the situation in Canada and is deeply concerned at this open celebration of Nazis in the Canadian Parliament.
The Hindu Majority is not against women's education, gender equality, LGBT rights, voting rights, music, painting, science.
A Sharia state is against all of these things at once.
A liberal Muslim is safer in Hindu-majority India than in any Sharia state.
Even in a constitutional democracy, Muslims need a strong Muslim leader because only a Muslim can raise voice for their issues, no one else can understand the experience of how Muslims feel in this country.
But yes, men can always speak on behalf of women.
All the young Muslim girls putting the
#Palestine

should know radical Islamists, including Taliban and ISIS, are against women education.
You are able to read and write and post on Twitter because you live in India.
"I am an ardent supporter of

. India is a diverse and colorful country. We should have tolerance and equality".
"Oh, so you must be campaigning for

"No, I mean the secularism which gives me special rights and privileges."
These Indian "secularists" try to become more Muslim than Muslims themselves.
Women wearing skull cap is fourth wave of secularism and tenth wave of feminism.

Being an Indian Muslim, I firmly believe that ancient Indic scriptures hold the key to the secrets of human liberation.
The whole world is turning towards Vedanta for answers of big questions in life.
We shoud rediscover our scriptures in today's times.
All eyes should also be on:
Bangladesh where temples are being vandalised and Hindus are facing ethnic cleansing.
Pakistan where 1,000 Hindu girls are kidnapped and forcibly converted every year.
Kashmir where militants are targeting innocents even today.
