How can Muslims deal with the injustices of the West without killing innocent people?

Question

I know that Allah (swt) loves justice so how can Muslims (particularly in western countries themselves) show their unhappiness with western foreign policy and how Muslims are treated unfairly at home?

Answer 1

Why do extremists always blame west for everything the only thing I disagree with is their support for Israel but why generalize all western nations in fact some are really good and all of them are better than some Muslim countries like Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

Even if they do something bad we don't have to respond by terrorism what about we create a modern society which can build strong nation so the "enemies" won't do anything to us

Muslims in Western countries get equal and fair rights and its really frustrating when extremists complain about the West and yet they live there, what cheap hypocrites!

My advice is don't generalize, and if you feel that you are "oppressed" by the west, don't live in their country and depend on them

Can you please answer my question, thanks.

Answer 2

Well, I'm not a Muslim, I'm a Christian.  What I know of the "radical Muslims"  they just don't like the fact that there are Christians here, simply because they have been brainwashed by Al-Queda and such (most Muslims I know are pretty nice).  Now, I live in the West, and I must say that will all the "injustice" you are talking about, there's twice as much justice.  Karma is a b***h, ya know?  

I know a few muslims, and they are great people.  But what I perceive from the majority of them, they think they are better then Christians.  Maybe you should think about looking at your behavior towards the western world, because everywhere you go, there will be injustices. You are just pinpointing the "source" of them at the Western area.

Answer 3

I think only one way left that muslims it self had no willingness to do because it might hurt themselves,  OIL EMBARGO :)

Answer 4

Injustics?

Why is it so easy for muslims to constantly accuse kafirs of adultery but yet are themselves totally handicapped in accepting the fact their own founder Muhammad(pbuh) had s*x with a biologically underaged girl and is therefore a pedophile?

Why is it so easy for muslims to accuse the Christians of polytheism when the Christians are declaring that they are worshipping ONE God in 3 forms and not 3 deities, but yet the muslims who pray to the black stone at the ka’aba daily, visits it during the haj and adores it so dearly to want to kiss it at the expense of their lives deny it as idolatry to your face?

Why is it so easy for muslims to accuse the infidels of performing injustices to muslims when it is 3,000 infidels who died in the 9/11 and not 3,000 muslims, 200 over infidel tourists in Bali and not 200 over muslims and hundreds of infidels in the Madrid train bombing and not hundreds of muslims?  

Why is it so easy for muslims to accuse the Christians of having corrupted scriptures compiled over thousands of years, but totally unable to accept the fact that the Quran’s compilation is itself in doubt, since historians & Archaelogists have proven that written Arabic was non-existent during muhammad’s time and almost all of the followers of Muhammad (who were illiterates) and had heard muhammad, had already died in the Yamama war.

Why is it so easy for muslims to accuse others of corruption, pedophilia, lying, murdering, polytheism & even incest but almost impossible to accept them when these are the very foundations of shame committed in the backyard of muhammad & allah’s religion, Islam?

Answer 5

Well, Muslims need to unite as one even if they believe in different ideals. Secondly, the Muslims as a whole need to be more vocal in denouncing Islamic extremism. Thirdly, Muslims need to educate other Muslims in developing nations and nations such as Saudi Arabia that there anti-Western attitude needs to change and they need to learn to solve problems without turning to violence.

Lastly and more importantly, Muslims need to respect other Muslims and there beliefs. Many times on Yahoo Answers I have seen Sunni Muslims attack other users because of a conflict in beliefs...it's time we fixed that.

To answer your question specifically, we need to talk to Congressmen but stay away from the realm of politics. We need to win the hearts and minds of other citizens that live with us in our own country.

Answer 6

i really dont know wot kinda injustice they are facing.

maybe this injustice is because of killing innocent people.

and they are miss using the guiding of the holly book for their own mean .

Answer 7

First and foremost, we as Muslims need to correct ourselves.  Success lies only with Allaah subhanahu wa ta'ala, and thus we will only succeed if we return to tawheed and the sunnah.

Once the Muslims can purify themselves of ignorance and shirk, then we will be able to give da'wah and call the non-Muslims to Islaam with kindness.  It is only through the correct belief and practice (both for the non-Muslims and the Muslims) that we may rectify the problems people create for themselves.

Answer 8

I do not know what injustice you are talking about in the west. What about the injustice non-Muslims face in Arab countries?. Shouldn't that be taken into consideration aswell.

Answer 9

With honesty even if you do express what you feel they do not take it into consideration especially the authorities, although their are many organizations who are working to tackle injustice. The most be can do is make Du'a for them as Insha'Allah the Truth will prevail and justice will be given to them one day!

LOl at the thumbs down, we need to return to the Haq many are deviated from the right path.

Edit: I know many people in the west who are faced with injustice, our brothers are locked up with no charges  getting tortured day n day out, it can get too much for one since they feel helpless that they cannot do anything, since if they do speak out the authorities assume they are interlinked with them. But bro Insha'Allah justice will be given to them one way or another, nearly fail to remember Allah 's promises.

Answer 10

I wish you could be more specific. What injustice? How are you treated unfairly?

This generalization doesn't cut it.  You have to attack the specific causes of your problems. That's the way thw world works.

Answer 11

  We can either speak out against it (which can and usually will be ignored), physically stop it  or hate it with our hearts.

  It will have to be a collected effort by the Muslims.  For example, the police won't roll up on a neighborhood in Forrest Hills, NY the way they did in Jamaica, NY when they (NYPD) where looking for the so-called "4th Man" in the Sean Bell murder.  Same borough (Queens), but different group of people.

As long as the individual Muslim knows who she/he is, frankly, who cares what another person thinks about them.  Remember what our Prophet sallaalahi alahi was salaam suggested (Buhkari hadith); travel in groups and make sure one of the group is appointed the leader/spokesperson of the group.

Answer 12

Allah helps those who help themselves, charity first begins at home, why ask about others injustice to Muslims, when Muslims are not just to themselves.

Answer 13

Don't EVER generalize the west as one entity. What did the Finnish people ever do to you?

Answer 15

Answer 16

Answer 17
