Dear Muslim Brothers, Hating Modi or the BJP is not going to take you anywhere. Voting for congress is not the solution. Think long term.
How can you better yourself and your future generations ? Why is it so easy for anyone to roll over you ?
It is because as a community, we have our priorities upside down.
Here is my 5 point solution to the problem facing over community.
1. Make education the TOP priority. Get rid of the Cable connections, useless expenditure in marriages and other stuff to fund schooling for your children.
2. Start interacting with Non-Muslims. Living in Gettos will not help. Interact with others at work, business and any other opportunity.
3. Stop burning energy and resources on stupid things like "Taslima Nasreen". That does NOT make anyone a better Muslim.
4. Work had and make yourself financially strong. Work double shifts if necessary. And spend that earning wisely.
5. Have children that you can manage to support. If you can afford it have many, if not then take your financial situation into consideration
6. Have faith in the constitution and the people of India. Modis will come and go. India is good country. If you work hard you will be successful
7. Hold on to your religious principles. The first 6 points are in line with Islamic teachings. Don't follow the society blindly. Accept the good and reject the bad. This will help build strong family foundations
8. Will all this effort put in, Pray to Allah for Success

Dear Imran, I totaly agree with you.there should be a 9th point...dont make thugs to be your leaders. There are many goons who have become muslim leaders just to expoloit the already exploited. It is very much necessary for us to choose our leaders well..i will say that it is better to vote for modi than to bring muslim leaders who exploit the community.

I agree. We do NOT need MUSLIM leaders. We are all capable to decide what our family priorites ought to be. We do not need a Muslim Leader for that.
We need to earn our own. We do not NEED the government to feed us. That is Islam. Stop depending on governments/Leaders.

Very Positive thinking. But Indians (whether Muslims or Hindus) are emotionally weak and hence all this mess by politicians.

Only a reformer like Ataturk can get rid of the backwardness. Adoption of whole scale modernity is the only option. Your suggestions are ham-handed and useless.

I do agree with you Imran This is only the way to build the nation. Otherwise again your community, i mean part of nationals will face same riots in near future also. By following which you said also help to check the religious based polytical agenda for every party in India. Good comment, Thanks. Bhaskar, Abu Dhabi,UAE

Veera, People like you and the idiot Mullas are two faces of the same coin. You guys are filled with hatered.
My advise to my Muslim Brothers would be no different to my Hindu Brothers. Lets stop playing the victim. Lets GET UP and fight to improve ourselves. Same advise to the ST/SC. Reservation is NOT the solution. We need a generation that gets the priorities correct and sacrifices everything to acheive the goals. I was fortunate that my Father realized that.
We need one person from every family to realize that and steer the future of these kids in the right direction.

Imran Bhai, You are absolutely right. I fully agree with you. I wish there are more Muslims thinking like you. Eventually, we have to remember that we all are Indians and we have to live with each other co-operatively.
