You might be right but that isn’t a bad thingthe reason why so many were anti islam is because Muslims conquered christian lands and imposed their law on christians
forcing people to convert and conquering lands isYou might be right but that isn’t a bad thing
There’s nothing morally wrong with Muslims conquering lands in the pastforcing people to convert and conquering lands is
just like the french ban on the hijabThere’s nothing morally wrong with Muslims conquering lands in the past
You can’t compare Islam to France. Islam is the true faith which has been revealed by Allah and one who follows it would save themselves from Hellfire and would enter Paradise by Allah’s mercy. Therefore, when the Muslims forcefully conquered land by waging Offensive Jihad, they Islamized the society and managed to save many people’s Akhirah (hereafter) by Allah’s will. France on the other hand is a filthy kaffir state ruled by those who are against Allah’s religion (Islam), therefore the comparison is false.just like the french ban on the hijab
As if christiabity was spread with peace.forcing people to convert and conquering lands is
what does this conversation have to do with thatAs if christiabity was spread with peace.
Christoper columbus wiped out alot of American natives who werent muslims.what does this conversation have to do with that
it wasn't really comparing but either way that is a nasty excuse for the destruction of cultures,societies and the livelihood of the people. Anyone who claims to be the true religion doesn't need conquest to expand their religion because it could have spread organically. plus, everyone claims that they have the true faith:muslims,christians,jews etc. you are muslim because you were born in a place that is predominantly muslim. not because of divine intervention. Just like if you were born in Poland, you would have been christian and propagating christian beliefsYou can’t compare Islam to France. Islam is the true faith which has been revealed by Allah and one who follows it would save themselves from Hellfire and would enter Paradise by Allah’s mercy.

that's assuming that I can't condemn both Christian and Muslim imperalism. it's whataboutism. I can discuss islamic imperalism while also condemning christian imperalismChristoper columbus wiped out alot of American natives who werent muslims.
muslims tried to expand into other parts of europe but they were taught a lessonThe African Moors taught them a severe lesson, muslims should recolonize it again
Lol What sort of excuse is that? France could justify their conlonical atrocities using the same argument. They could say we were trying to civilize a barbaric and primitive clans.You can’t compare Islam to France.

Christian imperialism predates Islam and was also supported by atheism and we know Islam didnt wipe out entire continent like native americans.that's assuming that I can't condemn both Christian and Muslim imperalism. it's whataboutism. I can discuss islamic imperalism while also condemning christian imperalism
Are you serious or taking the piss. The video itself clearly says for “politically motivated reasons” not religiously motivated.We are constantly being told about violence from Muslims, who are almost always the victims in the modern age by history's most violent and destructive people.
Forget their history of Christian imperialism and just look at the last century and what they have done all over the world.
Dont take this hypocrisy seriously.
Did you even read? I said the criticisms are coming from history's most violent people it is pure hypocrisy and propaganda. I even suggested ignoring their religious Christian imperialist phase which was long and brutal and well documented including slavery and colonialism stage.Are you serious or taking the piss. The video itself clearly says for “politically motivated reasons” not religiously motivated.
