Islam is a religion of Peace. There are more or less 1,6 billion muslims in the world. Most of the muslims aim is to live peacefully with the 5,4 billions of non-muslims in the world.
You cannot blame the whole tree for some rotten apples
Just because a few of a tree`s apples are rotten doesn`t mean that you can blame the whole tree. There are a few rotten apples in every tree that exist.We can find christians, buddhist and atheists as terrorist but no one blames their whole religion for it. Though when it comes to Islam, the whole religion is blamed.
The whole society is responsible
You cannot blame the followers of a religion to condemn what some people are doing within the same religion as they. We are not responsible for that, just like a whole nation is not responsible for what one person living in that country does. It is not only a person religion that makes a person it is the norms and environment of the society they live in. If we need to find blame than it would be the whole society because that is what shaped the persons thoughts. If there happens to be a few black sheeps in our society, the whole society is to be blamed for it, not just one group of people. Because that is what made that person like he / she is.
We have forgotten the anti-islamic-groups
There is put too much effort into islamic extremism when also the anti-muslim groups that are on rise, are not being watched equally. We do not know from where our next black sheep will come. It could just as much be from an anti-Islamic group. it is crucial that the authorities also follows these groups. Or else we might have another terrorist attack, like before, where the person behind was from their natives.
The media is biased
The media is biased in its information. The sooner we understands this the easier it will be for us to accept the truth of our societies. The media is in war with Islam and muslims. They are spreading so much negativity in case the news is about our religion. If the news is someone from their own people, there is little, if anything about it in the mainstream. They know that news about Islam does sell more of their papers than other news. What happened to a free media, if they are only in it for the money. What happened to the rules of writing the truth for a journalist, even if it goes against their own natives. What happened to professionalism in journalism? Are they not filling people with hate for a religion with their stories because of their judgmental perspective? If you write with good intentions you would write about wrongs in your own people as well as the “others”. To tell people what is really going on in the world. Writing for truth to be known, not to spread lies amongst people. I guess media has become a business, and the investors are focusing more on earning money than spreading the truth. Some people put their own life in jeopardy to tell the truth, and some people sell their own souls to earn som extra money. People are different.
May God help all to understand this.
