As a muslim , right now in India , i feel very scared , - because of the actions of a few misguided indiviuals , the whole community gets targetted & i don't know where we are going to end up , just going through the messages on rediff board gives you a generel feeling of hate towards the muslims , i really don't know if this can be taken as a parameter of the majority indian population , but it makes me scared.All i can say is I love India very much & am proud to be indian, & at the same time , i am a good muslim ,who prays regularly & i don't see any conflict in loving my India & my religion at the same time-What do you guys think?

A well thought message really. This is what is happening to a normal person. Any religion. The action & reaction game of a few.

Dear sami, I feel bad for you. But you should spread information to all your Muslim friends to show zero tolerance to terrorists.Please inform the police even if there is any clue of suspiciuos activities in your neibhourhood. Even if 50% Muslims begin to do that, all terrorist can be caught.remember it is also Muslims who are dying. Can you imagine 18 Bombs being placed in Surat without anyone knowing....Surely not.

I guess christians do especailly in the Middle ages. The Roman catholic church and the pope opressed every including scientists like GAlileo that is history. Burnt thousand at stake(read any book on the spanish inquistion).Destroyed the Meso american civilizations (Aztec,Incas)and spread dreaded diseases like Smallpox throughout the globe

I really feel pity on your ignorance!!!!!!!
The need is to understand that playing the anti Islamic card will not help in this modern era where everone with some sense knows the great message of Islam and its robust presence in the world since its inception.
The fact that Islam continues to grow in such an odious environment proves that truth finds its way in the DARKNESS............

Both Congress and BJP give special hand to the terrorists. RSS terrorists demolish Babri Masjid and Narasimha Rao sleeps. BJP attacks AKG Bhawan and Shiela Dikshit engaged to free the criminals and BJP corporates.

A real Muslim you are. That is why you are loving your mother country India & your religion(muslim). See one milli drop of poison is enough to spoil the milk. Like that some people's mistake of ur community is making you all(the whole community) to be answerable. Why dont the people like you try to change the minds of the diverted or misguided youth in your community. If u try atleat some change will come.

Kya baat kar rahe ho ji? Aap ko darne ki kya zaroorat hai? If ur afraid of someone plant one or two crude bombs in front of his house or call SIMI, Indian Mujhahiddin & many more. Darna to humein chahiye aap se. Abhi aap hi to faisala karenge kise rehna hai aur kise marna hai. Haa hamari govt. 1-2 lakh ke cheque rakhegi humari deadbodies par, atleast baad me baari aane walon ke kaam aayenge.

Dost no need to feel scared India is equally yours as it is mine and others. In order to fill the gap between Hindu and Muslims few things needs to be done: 1)Kick those politicians who follow the path of appeasement (Whether hindu or muslim appeasement). 2)Id and Holi should be celebrated by all. 3)Education to all. 4)Kick those who try to divide the society on the name of religion. 5)Always support national issues and not state based issues (Like J& K issue or NE issue)

u r a nice person sami. and there are many who who are like u but the voice are not heard in ur community. Majority of Hindus dont approve VHP/RSS views and they openly rejects and objects to their views but this is not so in ur community. Had there been a large support for VHP/RSS then BJP wud have got 2/3 majority all the time they are no where near to it. but the problem is that in ur comminity there are many who makes noices on non-issues and the educated masses dont raise voices againt them. See in case of Sushma Swaraj's statements there are large number of Hindus who have raised their voice against her but the samne kind of response is lacking in ur community which disturbs the Majority of Hindus.

dont be scared just help the intelligence with the inputs which can only be given by a muslim.....and keep in mind one thing the greatest power of Hinduism(for me at least) is that it gives us a right to introspect and criticize our own faith if required....u better do it among Indian-muslims too.... even a child knows that india is the best place to lead life for a muslim. be proud that u r born here...claim your space and protect it from any beast...even if they r muslims.....
