An organization representing Indian Muslim Americans canceled its participation and withdrew its float from the yearly India Day Parade held in New York City over the inclusion of a float that celebrates a highly controversial, recently built Hindu temple, which is being criticized for showing anti-Muslim bias and bigotry.

now, anyone wants to talk about how many times do muslims curse non-muslims (and that too idol worshipers) in their daily 5 prayers?

sorry can’t do that

    did you even check the link i submited ? surat al baqrah is not the only one that calls out for violence

    Surah 63 condemns “hypocrites,” those who have renounced their Muslim faith. “They are the enemy. Guard yourself against them.”

      Where is the call for violence?

      The surah you linked is about how a dude and his wife will burn in hell, and how there wealth won’t save them.

      Guarding yourself doesn’t have to be violent.

          And you know off the top of your head the chapter and verse of a random ayat recited by your imam (in Arabic)?

          Also, you seem rather negative about Islam for a person who attends asr prayers.

          Why do you post random ayats that no one would usually say in prayer?

          Why are you posting ayats without the proper contexts, almost like you trying to misconstrue the meaning of things?
