Why do people hate islam?

[Sexie]

Different religions with different kind of people ,the good and the BAD. But some of the Islamic people are the ones who started of terrorism and killings.

[SugoiSenpai]

Ignorance. They know nothing about it and that allows people to fill the gaps in their knowledge with whatever bias they have. It's also true that all people hear about are Islamic terrorists. Obviously the jihadists represent a very small number of Muslims.

I agree with you. People misperceive Islams to be bad peoples, because they are biased by what they see in the media, they only believe what the media says and don't listen to anyone else. I believe they need to do a thorough research before they can judge Islams for who they are.

I don't hate
 Muslims. I also don't hate Islam, exactly. Not near as much as I hate Christianity. Both are just flat wrong, and I'm about to show you why.

This is actually true of ALL Theistic religions that I am aware of.

1. A priori beliefs:

 There is a God
 This being is Omniscient and Omnipotent
 This being wants to be worshipped.

2. The problem.

If all of the above are true, how many religions could their possibly be?

Y'all know the answer, you just don't want to face it.

[Sithara007]

1.Promotes killing of non-believers
2.Terrorist attacks
3.Muhammad was not as great as Muslims claim him to be
4.Followers are easily offended
5.Discrimination of women
6.Followers are bigoted
7.Muslims are not educated
8.Everything fun is haram
9.Child abuse in madrassas
10.Hypocritical

Maybe because this reasons many people hate Islam. But you know ? all of it, is not true !!!

Nailed it. You listed almost all of the negatives about Islam, although I'd like to add a few more. Such as:

1. Usage of demographic jihad to conquer infidel nations
2. Sexual abuse of camels, goats and donkeys
3. Polygamy

I don’t think that people actully hates Islam, which is the religion itself. I thi k their hatred falls on it’s people who are usually seen in the news getting involved in terrorist attacks. Just like when people heard about ISIS, for example. It is true that the people there are Muslims, and their religion is Islam, that’s why people hate the people, but not their religion.

[shiki3226]

To say that people hate Islam is to say that everyone actually is though we know that it isn't really true. I think that there are people who are angry with them as there extremist groups in the Islam faith who are practising terrorism. But saying that everone who belongs to that faith are all terrorists is just hasty generalization.

Brainwashing by Hollywood and media is the culprit of this state of things. The have spread fear and hate for decades.

People who don't watch Hollywood movies are even more likely than those who do to hate Muslims. Don't blame Hollywood for the fault of the Muslims. No one asked them to blow themselves up in pubs and supermarkets, killing dozens of innocent people. If Muslims want respect and friendship from others, then they should actively act against the terrorists.

[Kazuyukie]

they don't, so don't generalize them, just because some people hate them doesn't mean people hates islam and what makes you think people hate islam, they hate the people who's doing bad things using the religion's name not the religion itself.

[snowyy]

For me , because they are being stereotyped as terrorists . Most of the terrorists believes in islam like AlQueba , BinLaden and Maute Group here in Philippines .

[daniel08]

In my own opinionits not actually people who hates islam , those only people who are telling themselves as islam those people who are terrorist. People hates terrorist not the religion islam. Because those terrorist is connected to islam. But i think there are no islam that are terrorist , terrorists itself has no religion they only connecting themselves to islam because they want to have more people to follow them and majority of terrorist is in islam countries.

[cryptoblue]

I believe Western Media is promoting negative image of Islam. Most of these Islam haters are in the West. In other parts of the world there numbers are quite low.

[komjhq]

The fact is that the world knows practically nothing about the culture and way of life of Islamic states. All that humanity knows about Muslims is that they are associated with terrorist organizations and that their religion infringes upon the rights of women who walk in burqas.

[Kh2o]

because they dont heard about respect.

[Potatohead]

People already had a bad impression about Islam because most terrorist attacks were led by Muslims. However, we should keep in mind that religion doesn't correlate with one's personality. There are good Muslims, and bad Muslims. There are good Christians, and bad Christians. Religion doesn't set someone's attitude and personality.

[Anthonyr475]

Terrorist attacks (USA, UK, FRANCE, GERMANY, BELGIUM, AUSTRALIA)
Mass sexual assaults and child abuse in Europe on western women (In comparison with their population)
Unlike most other cultures and religions (Chinese, Hindi or jewish people). They do not integrate. Muslims tend to stay in one area and close themselves off from the world. When outsiders go to these places. They are usually met with abuse (No go areas)
They treat women no better than dogs. Who are only used for breeding and raising children.

Before people call me ignorant. I lived in a muslim majority part of Britain for over 20 years and there are lots of good muslims. But, over the last decade. I have definitely seen the change. Even in western cities. They have gone from a secular version of Islam to a more militarised version of it that has a dislike for any other culture or religion. I think Europe will see big problems in the future. I really do not see how Islam in it's current form can ever exist with western culture as it is very dominant. These are just my opinions.

[pazzanegro]

Only low educated people hate Islam.. Islamic warriors who show their dissension to governments and system by taking lifes of other innocent people are not true islamic. Because Islam is peaceful religion.

[kylekyle2000]

I don't believe that everyone hates muslims nor islam. I personally don't and I think we should first all try to understand something first before we judge it. To generalize and judge without proof is a foolish thing to do.

[kylekyle2000]

I am aware that there are people who claim as followers of Islam but are extremists and even practice and do things that are not even supported by their own faith. But these people are either hypocrites or are false followers.

[Condoriano]

Not everyone hates islam and I think there is no reason to hate them. We might afraid what we heard on the news, but I just believe that some people are being manipulated. There is no bad teaching in islam. They are not being teached to kill and most of them are good people.
