RESURGENCE OF ISLAM AND MUSLIMS WORLDWIDE
The Muslim population has seen a strategic rise in various countries including England (London and United Kingdom), Australia, and Germany over the past year, with projections indicating continued growth in the future.
Following Christianity, Islam stands as the second most practiced religion in Germany. Similarly, in the United Kingdom and Australia, Islam holds the position of being the second-largest religion. Pakistan has implemented strategies to relocate its surplus Muslim population to several democratic nations, subsequently advocating for the integration of Sharia laws within these societies. This strategic maneuver has posed challenges to the developmental trajectories of these democratic nations.
Pharmaceutical companies in India led by Muslim executives have protested against Patanjali Ayurveda, asserting that the pharmaceutical industry is predominantly led by Muslim professionals. Bollywood can be seen as Islam’s greatest propaganda tool. Islam does get a few preferential treatments in Bollywood, it’s much easier to criticize Hindu aspects of society compared to Muslim one.
Additionally, the hotel industry in India, particularly along the highways in Gujarat, is predominantly managed by Muslim proprietors. Some of these establishments use names like Bharat, Tulsi, and Jai Hind, which may be considered misleading.
Hindus are often following Muslim practices, such as consuming halal food, without advocating for the inclusion of Hindu-specific labels on food items. Meanwhile, Muslims are advancing in more affluent conditions, whereas many Hindus continue to live in poverty. Here are ways Islam is trampling Hinduism in India :
State control of Hindu Temples
Injustice towards Kashmiri Hindus
The Waqf Act, 1995 Celebrating Islamic Rulers who killed and converted Millions of Hindus
The Education system
Hindus face several forms of inequality and discrimination despite having full political rights. Unlike minorities, they cannot run their educational institutions without state interference, and their ancient texts and knowledge are excluded from public education. This exclusion leads to Hindu students being unaware of their cultural heritage and sometimes even developing negative views about their own religion due to the biased public education system. Additionally, Hindus are denied the right to manage their own temples and religious properties and face restrictions in celebrating their traditions. This results in an unfair treatment in religious, educational, and cultural matters.
Hindus need to become aware and proactive to preserve Hinduism, which has been influenced by certain Muslim practices.
