My heartful thanks to the publisher for publishing this valuable article .This will certainly help the muslims to understand the reality. I personally believe that we the muslims should give priority in educating our children.Education will help us to broaden our minds to understand the issues and react positively.
Though a well written article , I would like to differ on his position regarding lynchings, sir the lynchings might be seen as a minor issue but remember it is minor only until it is your own brother or uncle
Can uneducated Muslim brethren give / suggest any saner or a better approach for better education and jobs? Also please suggest how lynching can be stopped. Because they happened even when there were Muslim leaders at the top positions.
If there was ever a dolt, this journalist is one. Or maybe he got a fat Amit Shah like fee to pen all this bullshit. He fails to realize or acknowledge that Muslims ARE victims and ARE being persecuted and they’re not acting. This is actually happening. The government has taken lessons from Israel and turning the Muslims into victims just like Palestine.
What remains is the Nazi adaptation of genocide which doesn’t seem far considering the apparent hate Modi carries openly for Muslims.
Muslim brethren, what then exactly is the dissent about?
I have so many educated muslim friends and they donot want to be recognised with other rabid Muslims. These people are decent, balanced, follow rules of the land and well placed on their educational qualifications and experience. In our country Muslims are the worst enemies of Muslim backwardeness, why blame for your problems created by yourself, to others. Learn to solve your problems and you will find answers close-by.
Very courageous article indeed. From my experience in the civil service, I must say that there have been and still are many brilliant, competent and legendary Muslim officers in the civil services. I have had both superiors and juniors from the Muslim community of whom I feel very proud.
I think, as much Muslims need to understand come out. Over the period of time, I have seen many Muslims who are educated behave differently than those with poor education. This class of minority are exploited most by politicians through threat. If you see, the so called saviors are political family, who went to educate their children abroad, still keeping their constituency poor.
Hello sir, probably you have not observed more communal clashes have occurred when BJP was out of power and it is only after they got power, they keep quite. See what they have been doing in WB, Kerala and attempting to do in Telangana. Of course you are right, Muslims themselves are not taking initiative. In 1984 RSS BJP joined under grab of Congressmen in anti sikh riots. You are free to praise Modi as you have access to him. So instead of lecturing please help them to bring them to main stream. Since BJP came to even educated have started speaking in communal tone against other communities and you are saying Modi and Shah would transform India
Wov.. 1984 RSS BJP joined under garb of Congressmen. Are you Sydney Sheldon or Robert Ludlum? Then why did Rajiv Gandhi used the word when earth shakes, trees falls. Now you will also justify that it was RSS BJP under the garb of created Bhopoal tragedy and escorted Anderson, then CEO of Unicarbide safely to airport. You congress men have been fooling around for long time. You party is decimated to almost bare minimum like any regional party.
Hello sir,
I am not a sleuth or author, FIRs are there, the only person who had guts was Captain Amrinder Singh.
Muslims also need to get wrist watches and use them to figure out when to pray. Then, as a mass, go to the nearest mosque and ask them to turn off the loudspeakers as those who want to pray will come at the time suitable to them. Shouting the same tuneless, raucous call to prayer 5 times a day only keeps irritating non-Muslims and does no service to Muslims.
On Fridays many mosques have loud sermons audible for hundreds of metres. Why can’t they play them softer so that people around don’t get disturbed. I visited UAE, and mosque loudspeakers were banned within a km of any school college hospital. Muslims need to go and do this to the mosques near schools colleges hospitals in India too.
And in the Friday sermon, the Mulla needs to tell the congregation to be civil, observe queues, stop at red lights, don’t ride 3 on a bike (even namaz), don’t use horns, or drive on the wrong side. Let Muslims be the best behaved people on the streets so that they set an example to uncivilised Hindus.
Much smaller minorities than Muslims – Christian, Sikhs, Parsis, Sindhis – have prospered even without Govt help. They helped themselves.
What exactly does “ victim mentality “ mean. Is it really so easy for a young Muslim girl or boy to walk into an examination hall and top the Civil Services exam. Lynchings are not a new phenomenon … Aur kitni whataboutery karenge, Janaab ?
When Sikhs are massacred enmass it is called earth shaking and tree falls. It is not called lynching. Under Mulayam Singh’s rule, farmers are killed for grabbing land, it is called fight between two groups. When a Dharoga hits someone in lockup leading to death, it was accidental death for unknown reasons. When a group of muslim men rape a Dalit, it not caste related, but some vagabonds in action. Aur kitne saal sabko ullu banaoge, Janaab?
Nice article! Muslims shouldn’t feel victim. They are as Indians as everyone else. Work harder for yourself and the country.
This is the most sensible article I have read in years. Muslims need to introspect and understand that today’s world has changed, one can not expect a special treatment. All are one and they should act like a normal indian. Go get education, get jobs. Who stops you and if someone donot gove you admission in a school, college, job just because you are muslim, then you have every right to complain and report. In my own company, one of my partner is a muslim, we have lot of muslim staff, as we only get people based on what they can contribute to the company. These guys take 1 hr off on friday for prayers, we donot mind, just ask them to ask good things for our company also.
So to improve yourself, please do something by yourself. Do not go by social media, news etc. people have their own agenda.
How did this truthful article get published in The Print?! All Indian Muslims should focus on education and social development. Role model for the rest of the Muslim World.
But we should congratulate Shekar Gupta. The Print is more balanced and less anti national than Islamic Express and the Hindu (amazing name for the most anti Hindu rag) newspapers.

Sir, many years ago it was you and Ms Madhu Kishwar Purnima who brought me closer to Modi. Thank you so much.
Skirmishes such as mob lynching will take place? You mean you are fine?
