Let’s have an honest, tough conversation.
I’m Muslim, I’ll never renounce it, and I need to be better.
That said, we need to rethink some practices.
In the west, the loud, public calls to prayer five times a day, praying in large groups that block streets, disrupting traffic, and inconveniencing others needs to stop.
We’re not doing ourselves or our non-Muslim neighbors any favors by disturbing their daily lives.
When Westerners visit Muslim-majority countries, they generally show respect.
They follow local customs.
Women cover up, men act with honor, and they don’t demand that these nations change their laws, build churches or synagogues, or take in more Western immigrants.
Muslim countries enforce strict cultural and religious norms, and visitors comply.
Everyone coexists peacefully.
Why can’t we show the same respect in America and western countries?
Let’s be real: this is a Christian-majority country.
Muslims make up 1-2% of the population.
We’re a minority, and in many ways, we’re guests here.
I don’t see Christians or Jews going to Muslim countries demanding special accommodations or disrupting local customs.
If they’re allowed to practice their faith (and pagans often aren’t), they might pay a jizya tax for the privilege, which also exempts them from military service.
Non-compliance could mean jail, deportation, or worse.
I know the counterarguments: “America has freedom of religion!” or “There’s separation of church and state!”
But let’s clarify something.
The phrase “separation of church and state” comes from Thomas Jefferson’s 1802 letter to the Danbury Baptist Association.
It refers to a wall protecting religious freedom from government interference and preventing the state from controlling churches. It’s not a blank check to practice our faith in ways that disrupt others.
We don’t need to “assert dominance” with mass public prayers in symbolic Western locations.
That’s not faith...it’s provocation, and it disrespects our host nation.
Muslim-majority countries would never tolerate similar behavior from non-Muslims.
Why should we expect different standards here?
Let’s show the same respect we’re shown abroad.
Let’s practice our faith humbly, integrate thoughtfully, and live as good neighbors.
That’s how we honor Islam and earn respect in return.
If you want to openly hear the call to prayer 5x a day, there's plenty of safe, clean, and beautiful Muslim countries you can visit or even move to (these countries love western expats).
Agree or disagree? Comment below.
Would like to have a good discussion on this.
🚨🇷🇺 “Citizens of Western countries! They are now persistently trying to convince you that all your difficulties are the result of hostile actions by Russia, and that you must pay from your own wallet to fight a mythical Russian threat. That is a lie. The truth is that the current problems faced by millions of people in the West are the result of years of mistakes, short-sightedness, and the ambitions of the ruling elites. These elites do not think about how to make your lives better; they are obsessed with their own selfish interests and super-profits” - President Putin.

I am jealous of how the Welsh celebrate Wales. England should do the same.
We're delighted to have so many Welsh patriots in Restore Britain. What a proud nation.
If one immigrates to any given country, they must respect the laws and culture of that country and contribute to that country to the best of their ability, doing no harm.
That applies to ALL countries.
Weak politicians, "authorities" and a full two tier system rigged against them.
A legacy media demonizing the native at every given turn, in favour of the invader, all under the guise of "tolerance".
Young girls have been forced to fend for themselves on their own streets.

oil is actually a renewable resource. its literally just hydrogen and carbon, and it is constantly being formed under the surface of the earth.
the misnomer "fossil fuel" was promoted in the 1900s to make you think of dinosaurs. but biotic oil comes mostly from plants.
