Here you are loving them but they are not loving you, while you believe in the Scripture - all of it. And when they meet you, they say, "We believe." But when they are alone, they bite their fingertips at you in rage. Say, "Die in your rage.

Unlike contemporary Westerners, the Japanese do not fetishize rebellion against shared norms in the name of maximal individual freedom.

Contemporary Western media centers on denigrating and subverting the shared norms of other cultures.

Similarly, contemporary Western notions of femininty idealize being a disrespectful whore.

It seems like this approach is absent in Japan and East Asia more generally.

With the rise of China, perhaps we will begin seeing what the East Asianizaion of global culture (including Muslim culture) looks like as opposed to Westernization. Precedents for this exist in Southeast Asia.

[​﴿ القُـرآن الكَـرِيم ﴾ @Quran400]

{لِيُنْفِقْ ذُو سَعَةٍ مِنْ سَعَتِهِ ۖ وَمَنْ قُدِرَ عَلَيْهِ رزْقُهُ فَلْيُنْفِقْ مِمَّا آتَاهُ اللَّهُ ۚ لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا مَا آتَاهَا ۚ سَيَجْعَلُ اللَّهُ بَعْدَ عُسْرٍ يُسْرًا}

The biggest lesson Muslims should take from the CJP protest is that nobody will fight for Muslim rights with the same urgency that Muslims themselves will. The protest exposed something Muslims in India have known for a long time, Hindu privilege is real.

As the organisers of this protest pointed out, permission was granted at the airport without having to go through the usual hurdles. Whatever the reason behind that decision, the larger picture remains the same, it is far easier for Hindus to protest against the government than it is for Muslims. Hindus can take to the streets, organize and express dissent with a level of freedom that Muslims simply do not have.

For more than a decade, Muslims have been dealing with lynchings, demolitions, custodial deaths, encounters, nonstop media vilification and the normalization of anti Muslim rhetoric. None of this happened in secret. Everyone saw it, everyone knew about it, yet Hindus remained silent despite having the social space and freedom to speak out.

The same people who now complain about media bias spent years using that very media as a source whenever Muslims were being targeted. They had no problem accepting media narratives when Muslims were being painted as criminals, extremists or villains. Suddenly, when the media turned against them, they wanted everyone to acknowledge how biased and dishonest it was.

What this protest really showed is that many Hindus only start caring about democratic rights when their own rights are affected. Muslims have been raising concerns about shrinking civil liberties, selective policing, media propaganda and state overreach for years, but those concerns were ignored. When Muslims protested against the CAA and NRC, students at Jamia Millia Islamia and Aligarh Muslim University were met with police crackdowns, detentions, tear gas, baton charges and relentless media hostility. Images of police entering campuses, libraries and hostels were seen across the country.

Those incidents should have sparked a nationwide outrage about civil liberties and the right to protest. Instead, many either remained silent or justified what happened. The moment Hindus experienced a fraction of that pressure, protests began and suddenly democratic rights became a matter of national concern.

The majority community had the numbers, the social acceptance and the freedom to challenge the demonization of Muslims, oppose collective punishment and make it politically costly to target an entire community. For the most part, they chose not to.

Even today, they can still become a voice for Muslims, yet most do not and it is difficult to ignore this assuming ignorance because the facts have been visible for years.

The lesson for Muslims is to stop expecting others to fight battles they have repeatedly shown no interest in fighting and stop involving yourselves in battles where that support has never been reciprocated. Any community that relies on the goodwill of others for its rights places itself in a vulnerable position.

The CJP protest was not just about one issue, it revealed who gets the benefit of the doubt, who gets the space to dissent, who is allowed to be angry and whose suffering is expected to be endured quietly.

@tkbryusuf @getinglouderig They raised kids based on their personal assumptions of what they wanted their life to be.

They didn't raise the younger generation on what's actually best for the younger generation.

[yusuf @tkbryusuf]

@getinglouderig Older generation is incredible stupid for normalising late marriage and now a bunch of corruption has spread as a result

I’d rather a bunch of 18yr old married Muslims compared to a bunch of 18yr old porn addicts

Absolutely horrific scenes of police repression against women in Iran.

@georgegalloway LOL see how this works...

Jew literally have their own Ambulances, their own police, their own Kosher, their own schools, no outside marriages, their own Sharia but hey that's good for the community!

Muslims do a prayer, a prayer & its world domination haha 😄

To my fellow Pashtuns:

Allah has honoured our people, and Muslims from all over the world respect us.

I know you all see the astroturfed hatred towards us on the media (traditional and social), including the obnoxious stereotypes, the outright racism, the accusations of terrorism, homosexuality, drug addiction and worse.

Yes, people will post videos of Pashtuns being nuisances in Islamabad or Lahore, and they’ll spread them and put a short message about how we’re incompatible with their civilization and some other ugly rhetoric.

They will ignore that these people causing a ruckus are often displaced people who grew up as orphans without guidance, and in some cases the filthiest of them actually fled KPK/Afghanistan themselves because their filth wasn’t tolerated there, meanwhile they can get away with it in Islamabad.

Regardless of the reason for their actions, the inorganic campaign to demonize us (coming from certain institutions and political parties) is clear as day.

My request to Pashtuns is simple:

Do not EVER engage in tit-for-tat racism. I don’t care if a Sindhi or Punjabi attacks you — call HIM ignorant, stupid or whatever — but do not insult his people or his lineage. People being racist to us does not justify us crossing the limits that Allah set for us. Why should a practising Muslim Sindhi have his entire ethnicity insulted because of some imbecile on Facebook or Twitter insulted you?

May Allah grant us wisdom and protect our people & protect the Muslims as a whole.

@saifedean Likely due to scare and fear of the incoming energy crisis, not due to moral reasons.

@MBitcoiner Is there a big learning curve with doing simple things manually and step by step? Do your payments and bank apps work?

[Abdullah al Andalusi @AbdullaAndalusi]

We have fake states that divide up the Muslim world, with artificial borders, given recognition by our enemies and imposed by our enemies deliberately to work weaken Islam and destroy Muslim solidarity. The truth is, all Muslim majority "states" are as ridiculous as Somaliland
