Imho, there is no "God-made" belief system, only men-made systems that propagate belief in one God, in no God or in many Gods.

It's not about what you believe but what they believe.

Also the arab and other middle eastern countries don't even consider jndia paki bangladeshi muslims as real muslims...and call us all hindu converts.

This mindset isn't even accepted in Islam.

There is a clear cut hadeeth/report that strongly addresses this.

"There is no superiority of an Arab over a non-Arab, or of a non-Arab over an Arab, and no superiority of a white person over a black person or of a black person over a white person, except on the basis of personal piety and righteousness".

Unfortunately, not all muslims follow that. Muslims' behaviour doesn't always equate to Islam.

To get a balance, just an overview about the difference between Hinduism and Hindutva (latter the admitted concept of the currently ruling parties):

"what is the difference between Hinduism and Hindutva?"

"Hinduism is an ancient, diverse religion and philosophy focused on spiritual paths, while Hindutva is a modern, 20th-century political ideology focused on creating an ethno-religious "Hindu Nation" (Hindu Rashtra) in India

Hinduism is religious and pluralistic, whereas Hindutva is political and aims to unify Hindu identity as a cultural and national identity.

Key differences between the two include:

  • Definition & Nature: Hinduism is a set of spiritual beliefs, traditions, and practices, often termed "Sanatana Dharma". Hindutva, often translated as "Hinduness," is a right-wing political ideology first defined by Vinayak Damodar Savarkar to define Indian cultural identity.
  • Focus: Hinduism focuses on individual spirituality, karma, and salvation. Hindutva focuses on political mobilization, nationalistic pride, and the state-level assertion of Hindu culture.
  • Inclusivity vs. Homogenization: Hinduism is highly decentralized and accommodates many diverse practices and interpretations. Hindutva seeks to create a standardized or homogenized Hindu identity.
  • Origin: Hinduism is often regarded as having ancient origins. Hindutva is a modern concept, codified in the early 1920s.
  • Relationship to Others: Hinduism has historically been inclusive and pluralistic. Hindutva is often defined in contrast to what it considers "threatening others," often targeting minority groups and advocating for a nation-state based on a single culture.

In essence, Hinduism is the faith system, while Hindutva is a political project that uses that faith system for building a national identity.

From my side, no discussions anymore about Muslim-Hindu... Both, Trump and Netanyahu have other things in mind than religions...

Thanks for sharing in detail. I wasn't aware about this but still not sure if this is completely accurate.

@bold I never wanted to be part of this and ever desire but some users heavily misinterpreted my comments and adding things on their own and now saying that I supporting this and that, which is completely unacceptable.

For clarity, I did not say anything about harming anyone. I’m against extremism from all sides of this world as we all want a place to live peacefully, happily, and healthily! ✨️

Correct... In what - do you think - Trump and Netanyahu believe? (not religion-wise, though).

Google AI result says this -

Raja Rammohun Roy is widely credited as the first person to use the term "Hinduism" in 1816–1817 to describe the religious and social traditions of Hindus. While the word "Hindu" has ancient roots, the "ism" suffix was adopted during the colonial era, often used in the 19th century to distinguish Indian traditions from Christianity and Islam.


Other Early Usage: While Roy popularized it, some argue that "Hinduism" was largely constructed through Western ethnography and orientalist studies in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Any source other than the scroll?

Nice analysis! Hopefully, the person who is helping agencies to eliminate extremists can understand the context better.

When you label 'extremists' with Islam and think that no one will point it out then it is vague.

99% of the current arguments could've been avoided if only extremists should be mentioned intially instead of the 'Islamic' extremists. Hopefully, this harassment against Islam needs to be reported to those agencies as well.

People are very well aware and can use those statements to further strengthen their case. Muslims are not here to be abused and mocked!

this is google AI result


Global Statistics (1979–2024)

  • Total Islamist Attacks: Between 1979 and April 2024, at least 66,872 Islamist terrorist attacks were recorded worldwide.
  • Recent Surge: More than 84% of these attacks (roughly 56,413) occurred in just the last 11 years (2013–2024), showing a significant intensification in recent history.
  • Casualties: These attacks have resulted in at least 249,941 deaths globally

and you have a problem with anyone saying/having problems with Islamic terrorists / Islamic extremists ?

Shouldn’t you have a problem if one just said Muslims carried those many attacks and deaths and instead refer to them as Islamic terrorists / extremists so that they don’t drag the entire set of people ?

Yet you are the one that said mocking god is worst than terrorism so you probably won’t get the difference.

you can keep trying to silence me with baseless arguments and statements. My problem is Islamic extremism/terrorism which is real - just check those numbers above. And that does not include mass anhillation by them in Kashmir , Pakistan , Bangladesh , Syria, Iran and other places.

Exactly! Equality is the true essence! ❤️

Undeniably, it is a fact now that Muslims and practicing Muslims are not in the same boat, but we still need to focus on more positive things to amplify unity and love among each other.
