I just read than a Muslim man was stabbed 15 times by Peter Michael Larson (allegedly). He stated that he intended to kill all Muslims, explaining that he had asked the victim about his religion before assaulting him.
This is not okay. Hundreds of Muslims are dying every day in Gaza, women are severely oppressed and suffering in Afghanistan due to extreme Muslims, and Islamophobia has been rising in the past years. This includes a shooting in a San Diego mosque, and the Illinois stabbing in 2023.
Despite radical Muslims, most people don’t understand the difference between stereotypical “Islam” and the real version. The “terrorists” against the kind Muslims that even I’m friends with.
Extremes on both sides are terrible, and we need to stand against this.

I just wanted to note that as a muslim, the oppression that the women in Afghanistan isn't even apart of the religion, it's just culture disguised as religious beliefs. same with the child marriages I fear..
there's something quite similar in Somalia, where they practice FGM, and if any female hasn't gone through the process, then she will be sl2t shamed, and is said to be 'undesirable', and wont get married. the harassment they face is heartbreaking..
I should also add that they also believe that it's all apart of the Quran, when it clearly isn't. I've read the entire Quran, and it doesn't say at ALL that any of these practices are permissible.
