Violence Against Islam and Vice-versa: An Observation

Though barely discussed in the national and international arena over the ages, the violence
against Islam has been a severe, tremendous, pathetic and ruthless issue in the world history
where Islam and its followers had to undergo violent, unprecedented, indescribable and
incredible war, strife, struggle and fight against the rival groups with sufficient consideration,
responsibility, temperament, religiousness and foresight.

Islam has been affected with internal and external complications and casualties from its inception
when Prophet Muhammad and his successors had to struggle unbelievably unfavorable and
traumatic conditions and situations to initiate a good, civil and timely reform through religion.

Unfortunately, Islam and its followers had to conform violent and tremendous attack’s,
confrontation, and destruction from historic barbarians like Genghis Khan, Halaku Khan and
other occupation forces where it also had to forbear historic crusades initiated by other religious
groups throughout the ages.

Islam and its followers have been facing colossal attacks, misfortune, misbehaviour and massive
genocide from generation to generation as reflected in the blood, sacrifice and mass killings of
Islam believers in various parts of the world including India, Middle East, China, Far East and
Spain etc.

Unfortunately, once Islamic culture, sculpture, prayer halls and other sorts of signs and
establishment had been destructed , humiliated and demolished with injustice and barbarism
leading some parts of the world devoid of Islamic culture and identity since Islamic culture and
identity had been a diehard and good weapon against bad, obscene, and satanic culture and
exercise around the world.

The recent incredible, heinous and unprecedented torture, humiliation and destruction of the
Rohingya Muslim minorities have startled and puzzled the whole world where the mass killings
of praying Muslims in the mosques of New Zealand recently have raised the question how long
the Muslim community of the world has to suffer considering the historic complexities and
casualties throughout the centuries.

In the early stage of Islam, it is said that seventy-two followers of Islam were killed incidentally
by the enemy forces when they approached the rivalries to preach Islam with peace and
reverence where similarly the same number of innocent followers have been killed mercilessly
after one thousand and five hundred years of Islamic evolution , establishment and existence.

What it means is that Islam and its followers have not been secured and safe until today while
it’s important to reform the strategies, lifestyles and framework of Islam and its followers to
safeguard this vulnerable religious community from all sorts of attacks, destruction, humiliation
and oppression.
Besides, Islam and its followers have been facing unbridled and unjust propaganda and under-
preaching conducted by opponent ideologies and supporters which are vehemently detrimental
and harmful to the good, just and reasonable practices of Islam and its one-fifth believers in the
world population.

Islam and its followers have been tremendously misrepresented and misunderstood in the world
media and Appalachia for long years as some terrorists attacks, bombarding and killings
occurred in the world arena have been termed as perpetrated by the so-called Muslim extremists
and fundamentalists in which the innocent Muslim children, women, men and establishments
have been bombarded ,tortured and slaughtered by the so-called democratic forces in the name of
demolishing Muslim extremists and establishing peace in the Muslim arena especially in the
Middle East.

The two powerful and armament-bearing forces amid the so-called peace-establishing forces and
the so-called Islamic fundamentalists have not been able to safeguard the suffering humanity as
reflected in the brutal attacks and killings both amid the Muslim and non-Muslim world while
the helpless, indeterminable and quarreling leaders of the Muslim regions haven’t proper
responsibility , personality , power and professionalism to resolve those issues managing the
influential western political powers.

The west has intimate collaboration and co-operation with the elite groups of the Islamic world ,
but the commoners of the Islamic arena have been deprived of peace, security, flourish and good
mode of personal and national life leading them to be confused , doubtful and startled about their
future well-being both initiated by the west and their respective national leadership.

Inter-religious dialogues among the various religious and other types of communities must be
initiated to lessen mutual understanding, mistrust, disbelief and doubt among themselves while
it’s also important to postpone hostile, exciting and counterattacking speeches, activities and
behavior among themselves.

We obviously remember that religions have been initiated to establish peace, harmony,
solidarity, unity and flourish among the followers where it’s also imperative to determine, justify
and unleash the quality, acceptance, reasonability, practicality and goodness of the religious
rituals and practices with a view to safeguarding humanity, reasoning, peace, solidarity and
welfare in the world population.

Well-sensed, well-justified and well-reasoned religious, humane and ethical education and
lessons should be proliferated in the world communities in order to produce good-natured
persons while it’s also significant to ensure, strengthen and establish the process of reform,
collaboration and co-operation inside and outside the religious communities to initiate an
environment of mutual understanding, mutual trust, co-operation, co-existence and compassion
among themselves.
