Misinformation is a weapon — and Muslims are its target.
Islamophobia isn't accidental. It's fueled by deliberate disinformation designed to divide Shia & Sunni, isolate communities, and justify discrimination.
1.8B Muslims worldwide share one Prophet's (PBUH) message — peace, not violence. Unity, not sectarianism.
On #IslamophobiaDay in #Ramadan — reject the narrative. Spread the truth. 🕌

Сегодня в шиитской мечети Мечеть Ходжи Бахром состоялась встреча с Послом США в Узбекистане. Обсудили значение межрелигиозного диалога и укрепления взаимного уважения. Подобные встречи способствуют доверию и общественной стабильности.

@IRFSummit As a religious freedom advocate, I believe democracies must show commitment through action — not statements: enforce protections, respond to violations, support vulnerable communities, and ensure accountability. Religious freedom must be a real, measurable priority.

In no universe should Turkish-backed SNA, foreign fighters, or HTS be allowed to take over “security” for religious minorities.

Appreciate @eremkansoy covering attacks against Kurdish majority neighborhoods in Aleppo, also home to Christians & Yazidis.

Escalation against Christians in China:
Hundreds of Christians arrested after 1,000 officers conducted pre-dawn raid on the Yayang church network in Wenzhou. 12 house churches were targeted. Follow @BobFu4China & @chinaaid for updates.

Freedom of religion is something that is greatly lacking in post-Soviet countries...

IRF Secretariat President @nadinemaenza takes the stage at the @IRFSummit to shed light on the alarming rise in religious persecution and the urgent need to protect religious freedom worldwide.

Her powerful message serves as a call to action—because freedom of belief is a right, not a privilege.

@d_yusupov Ужас...

[Jakhongir Kulidjanov @sayedjonik]

Strange situation is going on in "Hoji Mirali" Mosque in Bukhara! Strangers are preaching religious sermons on behalf of the Imam. And during the sermons, they started gossping about me and others. Again denigration of our reputation....

Катта рахмат Навбахор, мажлис жараёнини ёритганлигингиз учун.🙏

#ReligiousFreedom: Ўзбекистондаги вазиятни ўрганган 🇺🇸экспертлар назарида жамият диний жиҳатдан сезиларли даражада эркинлашган. Бироқ муаммолар ҳам талай. Хавфсизлик ва эркинлик орасидаги мувозанатни топиш қийин, дейди улар, лекин 🇺🇿 буни эплай олади. https://t.co/fCJedsYf7z
