Growing anger in Gulf over Muslim bashing in India

[Slog]

Your argument is pretty stupid.

It would merit any semblance of credibility if India becomes a Hindu rashtra. But even then it would be a weak argument since India is not a dictatorship and calls itself a democracy in name.

For your argument to have merit india needs to
Become a hindu rashtra dictatorship which it isn’t yet

Finally Owaisis and the like are indians born in India and there for several generations at the minimum. There is nowhere to ‘kick them out’ to

The thread title needs an update. It's not just a Saudi scholar many activists have become aware of the situation:

Growing anger in Gulf over Muslim bashing in India


India’s former Foreign Secretary M K Rasgotra (1982-85), speaking at the seventh Non Aligned summit held in New Delhi in March 1983, had said; ‘the world has become so interconnected that if you touch a flower here, you may disturb the stars.’

As a school boy, I heard these words on the black and white TV at my sister’s home in New Delhi. His words still keeps ringing into my years and now some 37 years after, when I watch the Corona – Tabligue Jamat link debate, on my Sony HD TV his words becomes prophetic.

This is because the way Islamofobia, communalism and hate mongering against Islam and Muslims is being telecast on the Indian TV sets under state patronage; it definitely has ‘disturbed the stars.’

My concerns are not unfounded because there are two worrying statements coming from two prominent individuals one from the GCC and other from the UAE combing make 11 countries in the gulf region.

These statements even though are coming from individuals and not from state heads is a source of worry to the eight million of Indian expatriates earning their livelihood in the oil rich gulf region. It is also a cause of concern to the families in India who are living on tax free remittances coming from the Gulf region.

The first statement is made by a scholar from Saudi Arabia Mr. Abidi Zahrani who has proposed that Hindus involved in spreading hatred and committing crimes against the Muslims should be sent back to India from GCC countries.

GCC means Gulf Cooperation Council which is a group of six countries in the Persian Gulf region: Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates are its members.

In a tweet Mr Zahrani said; “Gulf States host millions of Hindus, some of whom are infected with COVID-19 and are treated free of charge regardless of their faith while fascist Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu terrorist gangs while following the Hindutva agenda are committing crimes against its own Muslim citizens.”

Mr Abidi Zahrani further said; “I propose to the respected followers of Islam to list out all the Hindus who are working in the GCC region and spreading hate against Islam, Muslims or our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), to track them and initiate the process to send them back to India.

If this is not music for the Indian ruling elite then the second statement that comes from Princess Hend Al Qassimi, a member of the royal family of United Arab Emirates is poignantly haunting. Princess Qassimi said, though the ruling family of UAE is “friends with Indians”, but hate Islam hate Muslims campaign is “not welcome”.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) consists of seven independent city-states: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Umm al-Qaiwain, Fujairah, Ajman and Ra’s al-Khaimah. Around 3.3 million Indians are living in the UAE and they constitute roughly 30 per cent of the country’s population.

Princess Qassimi while responding to a series of “Islamophobic posts” on the micro blog Twitter said anyone who is “openly racist and discriminatory in the UAE will be fined and made to leave” immediately.

The UAE royalty was responding to twitter posts of a Hindu Indian living in UAE targeting Muslims over the March congregation of Tablighi Jamaat in New Delhi. He allegedly used abusive language against the Tablighis, calling them “radical Islamist terrorists”. This micro blogger in his earlier tweet had said, all Islamic organizations “should be kept on vigilant watch or barred” as they only spread violence and unrest.

Taking a note of such unsavory tweets, the UAE royal princess slammed the micro blogger and giving stern warning that such kind of people “will not go unnoticed.”’ “All employees are paid to work, no one comes for free. You make your bread and butter from this land which you scorn and your ridicule will not go unnoticed,” she wrote.

According to our government sources, a total of 3,336 Indians tested positive for Covid-19 infection, majority being in the Gulf region. There are 2,061 Indians who have been tested positive residing in Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, UAE, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Most of them are getting free treatment in their respective countries.

India as a matter of policy has decided not to bring back its stranded citizens from these countries. The Indian official sources say that Prime Minister Modi had discussions with leaders of the Gulf countries about the welfare of Indians in the Gulf region.

However, the official sources did not divulge upon did what the leaders of the region had told to the Indian Prime Minister. It is on record that the United Arab Emirates has warned of possible action against countries refusing to allow their citizens to return.

Well the other side of the story is always sacrificed in the Indian media and what is heard is what is being told in this country. It is not true that hate Muslim, hate Islam campaign that is on full throttle scale drummed up in the Indian media is not getting noticed.

TN Ninan, Chairman of Business Standard and a well regard journalist, has boldly said that marginalization of Muslims has become a ‘jan-andolan’ in India.

This statement is somewhat true. Abusing Muslims and denigrating Islam has become the pet theme of the large section of Indian media. This narrative has a cascading impact on the world wide Indians who live on the staple diet and feed on Indian media.

Among them there are many who are living in the so called Islamic countries. Swayed by the tone tenor of Indian media’s diatribe against Muslims and Islam they essay their mind on the social media sites, little knowing what damage they are doing to the fellow expatriates living in the gulf region.

The epic center of the hate mongering is in India. This is because some Indians have labelled the faith of Corona virus to Islam and Muslims are treated as terrorists fighting the Corona Jihad

India’s ruling elite that’s currently gleefully watching the rants of the wounded civilization on their television sets, are taking solace that they are winning the battle in the ‘clash of civilization.’ Little they realize that India rests in the soft belly of the Islam arch, can only survive like a tongue between the jowls.

To cut the story short, the alarming voices have started ringing the bells. The seed of hatred sown in the country in the garb of fight against COVID-19 under the watchful eyes of the current ruling elite will have to be redeemed long after this unseen virus goes into oblivion.

People talking about India's great deed of sending importing medicine to Gulf countries should also read the lines about 3000+ Covid-19 infected Indians getting free medical treatment in Gulf Muslim countries and Modi ji hasn't considered bringing them back home to India.

 

[Saeed]

And India should stop supplies of HCQ to UAE.

Or with oil at 17usd and countries desperate to sell oil, India can stop buying from uae?

Its a two way street.

So you think India should stop buying oil from Gulf countries just because they decided to kick out people spreading hate in their country. Never knew boycotting your biggest trading partners over some useless extremists was a good economic decision.

They are kicking out extremist Hindus while treating Hindu's suffering from COVID-19 for free. This needs to be highlighted!

These guys aren't bright, all they see is their supreme leader.

Stop importing oil from UAE, yeah. True, go ahead and ask your beloved Sarkar to do that. Even they're not that stupid. But it's blind followers, well what can one say!

 

[MP2011]

Will the Modi ji devouts listen to Modi ji when he tells them to stop the hate?

Had he tweeted this in May, 2014, may be, just may be things might have been really different in India than what they are now.

It's only due to his tacit approval of such hate merchants, things have come to this state in India. During elections, however he himself dons the hat of a full time hate merchant.

 

[MP2011]

The irony of Indian politics, bigots like Surya and Pragya Thakur get elected with huge margins while a great man like Nandan Nilekani gets defeated.

India is also treating foreigners in India. Its nothing out of the ordinary.

And some people are dreaming if they think any arab state, let alone a few individuals can interfere in Indias internal affairs. Bigger and more powerful countries have been shut up.

If someone goes to some country and breaks laws there, its for that country to act.

I am not naive. Expectations from Arab leaders is low. Very low. They can't even properly stand up for their Palestinian Arab brethren.

What I am pleased with is that hopefully more and more Arab public will become aware of Indian Hindu extremists. That's enough for me. Finally hanging out with some Arab friends and them being aware that the problem in India is deeper than just Indo-Pak politics. It's a personal satisfaction

Seems like extremists Indians on social media tried to bite more than they could chew. Some extremist Hindus were changing their location to a gulf region and posting hateful comments just to incite the locals.

Typical response from the hate monger Modi who doesn't address the issue directly instead hiding behind generic and vague language.

Yes I am aware that we are a democracy and not a dictatorship but I am simply alluding to the hypocrisy of few posters here. They are supporting and appreciating the fact that UAE kicked out hindus for anti muslim rants but wants freedom of speech in India. I totally understand that legally India cant deport anyone but what about morals & judgement of so called secular posters? I would have appreciated if they blamed UAE for this bigoted step like they blame everything on Indian govt. But it appears to me so called secularism is selective and binded by hypocrisy.

The desperation of posters here is resulting in them quoting little known websites to buttress their views.

India doesnt need to become a hindu rashtra or dictatorship.

Secularism doesnt mean people can get away by insulting the majority religion.

Democracy doesn't mean people can insult hindus and get away.

India doesn't even need to pass any new laws. Usage of section 153A and 295A of IPC is enough.

No it is not but do you think anyone would get expelled from UAE for mocking hinduism or other minority religions? They wont. The preecedent they are setting up there is respect our state religion or get expelled. TBH I have got no issues with it bcoz its their country...their law. All fine.

But what about my religion? My religion is equally important to me. Why cant I demand same law for anyone insulting my religion in my country? Why I have to accept criticism of my religion in my country just bcoz our constitutional ethos are secular? I am amazed that no one sees the open hypocrisy here.

You are right, no one should get insulted for their religion. This issue has only arisen due to mischievous Hindutva elements as I don't recall much agitation before this.

I'm not from the UAE but can only assume Hindus and Muslims have been living and working peacefully side by side until the extremist Hindutvas have tried to upset the apple cart.

As long as mob mentality is alive in India and Indians no law will be required to punish the culprits. Look at the latest mob attack on 2 sadhus and their driver. They lost their lives without committing any crime. This country is full of jaahils.

Stop comparing ourselves to Saudis because they don't claim to be a secular country. If you want a law against those who disrespect your religion then being a secular country same law should be made for religions of minorities as well. And knowing the mentality of people like you, you will never accept that. Stop acting like a victim when you are in majority in India.

I have spent a reasonable time with turks and arabs. One thing the arabs hate and despise is idol worhsipping. Its anathema. And im talking about the public. Remember Islam is very anti idol worshipping. Normal average joe arab hates it with a passion. Indian Hindus would do well to be reminded of this fact and should understand that once you lose the arab street you will ultimately be in big trouble.

you are in no position to demand anything from the UAE. Or saudi or qatar, or bahrain. They are monarchies and care little for your feelings. You should be thankful they are accomodating you and allowing you to work on the arab peninsula. There is a deep scholarly position that states that anyone who worships idols should not be allowed to step foot on the arab peninsula.

to come to the issues around this abuse, well hinduvta is fascism and fascism ultimately destroys itself. So be prepared for the ultimate disgrace of your people if the majority body politic of the hindu populace goes down this route.

Yes sir they are not a secular country but you belong to a secular nation, right? For someone who demands the freedom of speech and wears it on its sleeves everytime, I would have expected you to criticize the move by UAE govt. But on the contrary not only you supported the move but said "Those idiots deserve to be thrown out".

I am not blaming Kingdom of Saudi Arabia here but my issue is with my fellow liberal Indians whose definition of secularism changes with siutation. We are secular as long as we are in minority country but would justify bigoted moves under the garb of dictatorship.

Waah kya hypocrisy hai yaar.

But on the contrary not only you supported the move but said "Those idiots deserve to be thrown out".

I am not blaming Kingdom of Saudi Arabia here but my issue is with my fellow liberal Indians whose definition of secularism changes with siutation. We are secular as long as we are in minority country but would justify bigoted moves under the garb of dictatorship.

Waah kya hypocrisy hai yaar.

You are the only hypocrite here because in my case I will support giving punishment to those who were born in India as well. There is no way you can deport them to another country if they were born in India lol.

Once again if anyone in India commits a crime he should be punished by the law not by a mob of jaahils. Saudi is a dictatorship India is not. India is a secular country that means if a muslim can be punished for disrespecting hindu and hinduism then hindus should also be punished for disrespecting muslims, sikhs, christians or dalits. If that can't be done then you have no right to point fingers at other countries.

I know you are trying too hard to justify all that bad stuff happening to muslims in India but you are failing again and again. There is no comparison. Foreigners who disrespect your country or religion should be deported back to their countries.

I am sure Middle East people and arabs are more enlightened than some time pass commenters here. They will not generalise based on actions of couple of violators. I have said this earlier any country is entitled to take any action, that’s the condition of visa.

It’s funny when people say they should deport all Indians for this. Is it a thought or wish you wonder?

There are generations of Indians in these countries and occupying top positions along with lower income workers, nothing is gonna happen. they are migrants as well as nation builders. But hopefully a precedent is set now that this won’t be tolerable.

I will just conclude saying there are nincompoops all over the world and we just found one of them here!!

This thread, Pakistanis and Pseudo Secular Indians are on cloud nine, the Palestinians are getting slammed by the Israeli's and Arab world just sits there and does not even blink an eye, even worse some of them actually does business with the Israelis lol .... Arabs are not going to do anything unless of course if some Hindu extremist in the middle east says something anti-islamic, if they do then I believe they deserve the highest form of punishment for being that dumb and I fully support it... Overall nothing to see here than some random Arab Scholar said something, life will go on, nothing is going to change here.... Yes this thread is a win for a few Pakistanis and Pseudo Secular Indians, I admit, if that brings them a bit of joy, so be it, especially the Pseudo's since they are a nobody in India (Shoma Chaudhury I am looking at you) ....

Considering mocking hinduism is considered secularism in India, I am not sure if anything drastic would have happened, atleast legally. I mean the kind of language Akbaruddin Owaisi used for hindu dieties in a rally in hyderabad, I cant even describe here. What happened to him? He is still sitting as a MLA in Telangana assembly.

Now let me tell you what would have happened if the shoe was on other foot and those foreigners were kicked out for mocking hinduism in India. Likes of Arundhati Roy, Sagarika Ghose, Rana Ayyub and other champions of liberalalism would have ripped apart the Govt how 1 particular religion is targetted etc. There would have been mass protest in country about rising intolerance, facism.

Seen it all brother. Anyway, we may agree to disagree here. So peace.

Like Joshilla previously said in another thread, in India secularism means the majority has to keep their mouth shuts and take all the burden while the minority just sit backs and do what they want. Well we know that is not the case now with BJP in power, they have opened a can of whoop a** for the previous attitude. However I do believe we have to be fair, there has been a lot of unfair, targeted violence against Muslims which I will never stand for. However that Akbaruddin, he needs a major can of butt whooping that animal...

And do you support that? Dont you think it is fascism?

my position is irrelevant. As a Pakistani we are a bit more tolerant with this position but I am merely highlighting how many in the arab world look at this. You need to understand that if the arab populace begin to agitate, India's position in the mid east will deteriorate very very quickly. I would say within months. However India has alot of soft capital built up within so can probably delay any negative effects for the short term. Long term, the longer the BJP stay in power the shorter the time period will become..

The difference is that hardly any Arab from Golf region resides in India, let alone insult Hindu sentiments while living there.

Majority of the people who you think are insulting your religion in India are most probably going to be natives of the land and fellow Indians. You can't deport them. Though you can have a law which punishes those who hurt religious sentiments.

Pakistan has had such a law against blasphemy since a long time which is heavily criticized internationally.

Let's get the story right. When initially the Saudi scholar suggested to deport hate inciting Indians, there wasn't much tension in the air. Most people in Gulf region probably shrugged their shoulders.

It is only when in response to that Saudi scholar, Indian trolls thought that their keyboard warrior skills are impenetrable and decided to systematically bombard social media with insensitive and insulting comments did the situation get worse. The tension level increased and prominent Kuwaitis and other Gulf activists raised their voices. Forcing Modi ji to send a generic tweet about unity and brotherhood.

Most Indians in Gulf are Mallus and Tamils and they are mostly secular, tolerant people who are law abiding and mind their business. Thanks to Hindutva nutjobs they will face threats

Mutual trust and friendship formed over 50 years is under threat because of stupid, hateful, unemployed Hindutva trolls.

Look at their sinister strategy, many Sanghis did change their profile and since they have toxic views it would have given us bad press.

If a mob of hindu guys forces a muslim guy to shout 'Jai Sri Ram' and if that muslim doesn't want to say it that may be seen as an insult to his religion? I have yet to see a news of a muslim mob forcing hindus in India to shout 'Allah Hu Akbar'. If that has happened in India, he and others are more than welcome to share that news. It will be equally condemned. You will find more news of Hindus torturing Muslims in India than the Muslims torturing Hindus in India. Not sure why is he so scared.

most of the southern indians i have met are great people..friendly jolly and very chilled..a stark contrast to some northern indians and gujaratis who just do not like pakistanis. Although i know many gujrati hindus who are friendly and relaxed people..Gurjati Muslamans on the other hand have a real problem with pakistanis..

I don't consider Karnataka as South India. When I say South, I mean only Kerala and Tamil Nadu which are the southernmost states. Andhra too is ok, but Karnataka and Telangana are heavily North-Indianized because of geography and immigration from Hindi states. Karnataka also has a lot of influence from Maharashtra, hence the Sanghi venom.

Never compare TN, Ker Hindus with North Indian counterparts. There will be snowfall in Chennai before BJP coming close to winning a seat in TN.

My experience has been different.

I don't believe in the north south divide in India, as far as sentiments towards Pakistan or Muslims are concerned. I used to think so because of the popular opinion on the internet but not anymore after some personal experiences. Most South Indians may act cool and friendly infront of you. They don't openly show their resentment and only do so within in close circles.

There is no systematic pattern to it. If someone is a close-minded fool he can be from anywhere in the world. In India's case the more someone love BJP, the more likely they are to have extremely close minded views.

They don’t need your validation to be in South India, Andhra and Telangana have already shown what they are capable of without “Madras” politics and building everything from scratch from movies to businesses.

They don’t give into North Indian politics or Dravidian politics and can setup industries and art as they seem fit, even Kerala doesn’t give into Dravidian politics.

Hmm so it’s ok to insult the minority religions?
Also what do you think is the majority religion in UAE, that these hindu bhakts were insulting?

You see pretty thick based on what you write here. Read your own posts before actually posting them here.

First most of these guys who were in UAE must think twice before posting. Secondly if they criticize their brethern in India, it has nothing to do with UAE.

This thread seems to imply that non Muslims residing in UAE or gulf should be punished for any posts againist followers of majority religion. If thats the case, why that cant be true about India?

I think Andhra is doing all right but about Telangana's future, not sure. I see major inroads by RSS in that state, FYI I hate the Owaisis as much as the Sanghis. I am happy with Dravidian politics, Mallus are happy with LDF-UDF switch every 5 years, in a country like India we need social justice to go hand in hand with development.

BJP has never won a seat in TN as far as I remember, neither in general nor assembly election. RSS has no space in the state, toughest place for BJP. Even in Kerala they won 1 assembly seat last time, zero in TN. In Ramanathapuram (like Ayodhya for Tamil Hindus) BJP lost to Muslim League last year despite the constituency being Hindu majority.

You give leaders with no spine at the national level and then cry about things when you're unhappy and conveniently disassociate yourselves from disasters like you had no part in it.

Even in the opposition a Shashi Tharoor cannot assertively fight for or demand a bigger role within Congress.

Modi took away all the honours which Congress paved way for and ideally Manmohan Singh should have been bestowed with a lot of them. They were always meant for the nation of India and not Modi. He's a nobody even once this is over. No one is going to ask an illiterate guy's take on budgets and or national policies when the next PM takes over like they always ask MMS.

The Arab world is taking India's rising Islamophobia very very seriously.

All tje inroads we hae made in the muslim nations hearts , Modi and his idiots are undoing all that work.

India is going to pay heavily for thos

Like i keep saying Modi has been a foreign policy DISASTER since day 1. Countries are tolerating this idiot because they still respect India as a country. Their patience is being tested and this sudden wrath of Arab world is an example of that patience going thin.

Trolls have put Indian government in a hard position. They are forced to do firefighting

Talking about brotherhood, morality, peace. So cute

BJP has never won a seat in TN as far as I remember, neither in general nor assembly election. RSS has no space in the state, toughest place for BJP. Even in Kerala they won 1 assembly seat last time, zero in TN. In Ramanathapuram (like Ayodhya for Tamil Hindus) BJP lost to Muslim League last year despite the constituency being Hindu majority.



I never club Punjab with Hindi belt. Punjabis have always resisted tyranny and I respect them for that.

Bjp won a seat in TN in 2014 elections. So you dont know much.

Bjp is in govt in Karnataka.
It won a large number of seats in telengana.
It tacitly supported YSR in Andhra, and you can see jagan returning the favour regularly.

Bjp and Akalis ruled Punjab for 10 years consequtively. And had ruled even before that.

You need to learn about politics in India.

most of the southern indians i have met are great people..friendly jolly and very chilled..a stark contrast to some northern indians and gujaratis who just do not like pakistanis. Although i know many gujrati hindus who are friendly and relaxed people..Gurjati Muslamans on the other hand have a real problem with pakistanis..

I think the issue is Indians within India who are in the internet bubble..it can cause major major problems especially in countrys like the UAE and qatar etc where the level of tolerance can suddenly flip very quickly..

Same here. South Indians are very different. One of my closest friends was a Tamil, who despised BJP. I have also known North Indians who under the veneer of 'friendship'...you can always detect nastiness. Never like that with South Indians who I found always very friendly.

It's easy to incite others and spread hateful comments when you live far away in the comfort of your home but real people were affected by this hate campaign of Hindu extremists. In their attempt to let out their venom and hatred they actually caused trouble for their fellow Hindu brothers.

Indians in India wont give a damn what arabs think. Thats how it is.

Those living in GCC have to obey their laws. And that applies to any immigrant living in any country.

I cannot understand South Indians who are happy in their own small world letting north dominate national political landscape. You give leaders with no spine at the national level and then cry about things when you're unhappy and conveniently disassociate yourselves from disasters like you had no part in it. No participation is also a fault.

Even in the opposition a Shashi Tharoor cannot assertively fight for or demand a bigger role within Congress.

When is South going to break away from this and have a say in national politics.

We don't have the numbers, and we are yet to forge a common South Indian identity to represent ourselves better in national politics. Since we have controlled our population better, we will be punished in the future.

After the general election of 2019, BJP has 303 MPs out of 543.

From TN zero (total 39), even AIADMK got smashed for being wimps
From Kerala zero (total 20)
From Andhra zero (total 25)
From Telangana 4 (total 17)

These 4 states, BJP got only 4 seats out of 101 possible.We didn't choose them.

Karnataka has become a Sanghi lab, no surprise BJP swept that state with 25/28.

First the Madrasis used to peddle the narrative that we South Indians dont vote for BJP. Since BJP has formed a significant presence in Karnataka and small presence in Telanagana, the boundaries of South India have changed and now Karnataka is part of North India )

Even Arabs in Saudi Arabia won't give a damn what Indians in India think so what's your point?

I see you repeat this same line in every post of yours. Try something new. It's getting repetitive.

 

[JaDed]

What is your opinion on Karnataka? And the Sanghi influence there, especially in coastal Karnataka? They don't need my validation but I can have my views. If South Bengaluru is proud to be represented by this Surya guy, what can I say?

I think Andhra is doing all right but about Telangana's future, not sure. I see major inroads by RSS in that state, FYI I hate the Owaisis as much as the Sanghis. I am happy with Dravidian politics, Mallus are happy with LDF-UDF switch every 5 years, in a country like India we need social justice to go hand in hand with development.

I have issues with Victim identity politics . I have disliked Karnataka BJP forever or even Sri Ram sena.. but that doesn’t mean I like DMK.

Right now your view seems to be like our worst is better than their worst.

My political view is nearest to Congress (ideally) but hate them for nepotism.

I was in Bangalore when the Mangalore Sri Ram sena episode happened, it’s when i grew dislike for religious politics which shaped my bias against right wing.
