No one is saying that you keep your beliefs , but you cannot make me change my diet because of those beliefs. If a Muslim objects to a restaurant selling alcohol , that Muslim should be told to go for another restaurant. Because that restaurant has been selling that long and that is part of that person's business.
These are religious beliefs that go back 1000s of years and you cannot interpret them based on Modern norms just like how Hindus do not question and ridicule the concept of no idol worship in Islam which is just absolutely unthinkable for Hindus and has been so for literally thousands of years and is infact not an issue for many popular world religions including Christianity, Buddhism, Jainism and ofcourse Hinduism. This does not mean that anyone should ridicule, question or worse spit on your beliefs which is what most Muslims do even in 2024.
Another good example is the belief that Mohammad ascended to heaven on a winged horse.
The answer is that the Cow is considered the abode of all Hindu gods per our beliefs. Hence the reverence. So what is stopping Muslims from respecting the beliefs of Hindus ?
I do not understand what you are trying to say about Idol worship ? Are you trying to say you can ridicule the idea of God not having an Image ?
Muhammad Going to heaven on a winged horse , many Hindus make much worse comments , and joke about this on social media , but what has it to do with hindu religion ? Hindus do not believe in the God Muslim belief , Hindu God attributes and Muslim God attributes are chalk and cheese different . Muslims have clear perception of fundamentals of religions , Hindus have ambiguous beliefs , which changes at the drop of hat. You ask Hindus any simple question , there is never a clear answer. On social media any question you ask , they will immediately counter that with the Quran , muhammad etc. I told them many times leave Islam aside , lets agree for argument sake Islam is false , now speak of your religion. It looks like without Islam hinduism cannot walk.
What do you mean by respecting , everyone should stop eating beef? Is this what you want ? Tomorrow the vegetarians will say we need to respect their views and stop eating meat , why we not entertain them as well? Do you not think that the middle path is the best one? Remember beef is not eaten only by Muslims , it is eaten by christians as well as certain Hindus as well. Trust me , most people Muslim or Non Muslims eat beef only because it is cheaper than Mutton , if that was not the case , it would be very rare.
Most of the meat dishes taste much better with mutton.
