Contrarily, it is you guys who are taught religious bigotry from very early ages in your homes and schools and colleges. Calling Indian Muslims Malechha in your houses is a common practice. And when you grow up you are so brainwashed that you don’t even feel that what you say is religious bigotry.
Most Indian history textbooks, for example, uncritically accepted the periodisation of history into the Hindu, Muslim and British periods. Hindu rulers were projected as having been tolerant and enlightened whereas Muslim rulers as bigoted and as the persecutors of Hindus. Another common bias, which flew in the face of all evidence, was that the Aryans were the original inhabitants of India.
High School Itihas Bhag 1: "The Indian society during the Sultanate period was divided into two main classes - ruling or Muslim class and ruled or non-Muslims of whom Hindus were the majority" (page 281). Or: "Hindu was merely the payer of taxes. In spite of being conquered in the political field, Hindus did not lose courage. To regain their lost independence, they went on raising their voice from time to time.
In many schools Children, regardless of their religious background, have to recite the Saraswathi Vandana in the mornings and the Bhojan Mantra before their afternoon meal. Muslim children are often asked to lead the prayers. There are punishments meted out for not praying.
You guys are the biggest Islamophobes and the irony is that you don’t even know it.

The study reviewed more than 100 textbooks from grades 1-10 from Pakistan’s four provinces.
Researchers in February this year visited 37 public schools, interviewing 277 students and teachers, and 19 madrases, where they interviewed 226 students and teachers.
The Islamisation of textbooks began under the US-backed rule of army dictator Gen. Zia-ul-Haq, who courted Islamists to support his rule.
In 2006, the government announced plans to reform the curriculum to address the problematic content, but that has not been done, the study said.
Pakistan’s Islamist and right-wing polity would likely oppose any efforts to change the curriculum, and the government has shown no desire to challenge them on the issue.
The report found systematic negative portrayals of minorities, especially Hindus and to a lesser extent to Christians.
HAHAHAAHAAAHAAAAHAA
No enlightened muslim rulers were peacefully leaving on their lands it was intolerant hindu rulers from Saudi Arabia & middle east who invaded their kingdoms
RULING FEW STATES OF NORTH INDIA DOESNT MEAN RULING INDIA.
EMPEROR AKBAR SIGNED MANY TREATIES WITH RAJPOOTS & NON-MUSLIMS MAKING THEM RULERS OF SOME KINGDOMS TO KEEP DELHI SULTANATE AND LEAD A PEACEFUL LIFE
A true muslim with strong faith doesnt get effected by such acts meant for understanding other faiths.
Even Zakir Naik knows vedas-upnishads-puranas also Bible & has mastered Quran & Hadees. Is he less muslim then a TIN-HORN like you??
Also majority Hindus know 3 kalmas, they know five pillars of islam, they know about all Prophets , Mohammad (PBUH), his life, his teaching & even some hadiths, even know about ALI, they greet other fellow muslims with ASSALAM O ALAIKUM or WALAIKUM ASSALAM, they depart from muslim friends saying ALLAH HAFIZ or KHUDA HAFIZ
Thanks for this last part, you presented a example of yourself to explain what religious bigot is & look like as.
Actually that is not quite true. No one even talks about Islam in our homes or schools or colleges. And calling Muslims Malechhas? Frankly speaking, I came across this term here on PDF. Before this I didnt even know that such a term existed. This is purely a Pakistani stereotype of India/Indians. This has nothing to do with us or our bias.
I dont understand what is so wrong about the History you quoted. Yes, Hinduism is native to India. Yes most rulers were Hindus. It is also true that Muslim rulers from elsewhere attacked the land and ruled it. Infact who knows most of your own ancestors might have been Hindus and forced to convert to Islam at the point of a sword. It is also true that Hindus were subjugated, temples were destroyed and people were brutalized. This is acknowledging historical fact. Not Islamaphobia.
I did my high school in India. We had prayers every morning, but it wasnt directed at any particular religion. It was always addressed to "God". Not to Allah, Jesus or Shiva or whatever. Such things also exist in other countries. For instance in the US people are protesting Christian references in the Pledge of Allegiance etc., I am not sure how this even relates to Islamaphobia.
Fact of the matter is you guys brought up to hate India. I am not saying this, your very own students said this recently when they travelled to India. You guys are probably the biggest Indophobes out there and you justify your bigotry by calling others Islamaphobic. Nice try. Read from your very own media:
‘Pakistan schools teach Hindu hatred’ | DAWN.COM
Then the only region that satisfied that criteria is Indian subcontinent. And obviously non-Muslims are better than Muslims.
The news you posted is messed up. Pictures tell a 1000 words. Isnt it. Ok lets have another graphic. Click this. Two thirds of Muslims DONT earn 50,000+. The % earning more than 50K is 41% according to this and PEW. And same goes for the education levels also.
Average global Muslim..again Muslim as a monolith...mongoose....the Muslim in Turkey or Malaysia or Qatar may live a life better than Indian..but then again a muslim from Afghanistan or Somalia or Bangladesh or Mali or Niger or Kyrgyztan lives in conditions worse than India. Such a basic concept not getting recepted.
Your community is a living example.
Your response amply clarifies and proves my viewpoint that for most of you bigotry is embedded in your system and you don't even know this. Thank you for proving me right.
Even you are accepting the same thing more or less. You don't even know that you guys are committing bigotry, the particular angle of communal history taught to you in such a manner that you have almost lost the sense to identify bigotry while you are committing it.
That is not communal history. That is history as it happened. In Pakistan of course everything is twisted and distorted history so I do understand why you feel that way.
And Sir, what I quoted in my post regarding the bigotry taught in Indian schools and colleges is not from Pakistan but what the Indian intellectuals themselves say. So it is not Pakistani point of view - it is Indian point of view as well.
The distortion was amply highlighted and I can quote further as well, but when you are not going to believe even your own - it is existential bigotry embedded in thought process and imbued since childhood. What more can I say.
If the Islamic texts don't preach violence then there is no reason for someone to misunderstand its injunctions and kill others.
Why rely on others when you have the proofs in front of you?
Read the Quaran, and then formulate a decision.

No I live in the same US of A as you. Yeah and my martian friends praised the friendliness of the vulcans. You are talking about Pakistani chicks. Them who come out of their home in hijabs decked all pretty well but once the subway door closes yank them out and shove it in their bag to become the amreekan chick. LOL..get down to reality mian. You aint fooling anyone.
Unless they coming on that was our fault, I dont see the point in your cribbing. Its the same as you ignoring the fact many Muslim nations are blessed with abundant natural resources.
Yep. You you got it. If you are number literate, go read that figure and see where the Muslims come in the hierarchy. Cant be spoonfeeding every single step.

There is always reason, the Islamic texts are over 1400 years old and even back then they were considered "classical".
Do you expect everybody to be able to understand them without misunderstanding language?
Unless you expect a pre-schooler to understand nuclear chemistry easily on his first day of school, I find your argument highly illogical.
You need someone to build a base, so that a foundation may be built on it.
The problem today is the base that is being built and the builders.
Quite simply..what today's muftis are to the Islamic Teaching is petty clerks in the judicial system acting as judges.
