‘The peacocks living among us’

Muslims, especially in the West, never tire of calling others to Islam, or regretting their delay in joining them to eternal paradise.

The matter b aecomes more urgent when the non-Muslim is a famous figure, even if he is a singer or a second-rate football player.

This call to join the religion only comes from the caller’s growing feeling that he is a role model, even if he is the height of ignorance and a mountain of naivety.

There is nothing in our country that makes such callers a role model, especially since their daily behavior does not indicate that they have ever received a good upbringing or a distinguished education.

There is n aothing other than what they show of religiosity, what they utter of repeated and well-known words, and what they wear of “robes,” which they believe, in their entirety, constitute a passport to the hearts and minds of those who hear them, and give them a certain status wherever they are.

All of this creates in them a false sense of superiority, which prevents them from seeing the reality of their false and miserable situation, and that they are in fact a burden on knowledge and the world.

This feeling, as a friendly writer explained to him that he was deprived of the anger and rebellion necessary against his situation, and prevented him from developing himself and freeing himself from his backwardness.

When these people move to live in other countries, especially the West, which they describe as the countries of the infidels, they strive hard to enjoy all the benefits of those countries, and at the same time, they strive, with certainty, steadfastness and absolute determination, to evade paying their taxes.

They do not hesitate to resort to the worst ways and tricks to obtain financial assistance from the state, and its medical and social support, from specialists and others, and they do not forget to demand all their wages according to the minimum wage laws, and if they have a side job, they often employ those who work for them illegally, without social security, and do not give them the minimum wage.

Some of them, as we see even in Kuwait, and perhaps in other Gulf countries, divorce their wives, in a formal manner, so that she can obtain aid from the government, and perhaps an apartment from the municipality of the area, and they do not hesitate to conclude their marriage contract with her secretly, and there is always someone willing to testify for them, legally, to the validity of the marriage.

Then such people puff up their feathers, like proud peacocks, because they see themselves as “cleaner and purer” than followers of other faiths!

The behavior of some Muslim communities in Western countries, based on personal experiences spanning years, is disturbing and painful for the peaceful majority.

They behave in a way that provokes sorrow and causes societies to hate them. This of course applies to other communities that are no less evil and bad than them, but these have never claimed that they are better than others.

The Islamic minorities in Western countries do not receive sufficient attention from the moderate religious institutions in our countries.

Rather, they have been left to the extremist clerics there, who have led many of them astray and divided them into sects and parties.

The only concern of their leaders or imams is to obtain money and influence through the places of worship that they control.

It does not seem that the affairs of these communities will become better in the near future, except when they feel that their entire existence is in danger, and this is something that is expected to happen soon.
