Asselamu aleikum everyone!

I am from Germany myself and I grew up here. As a minority in this country my experience is quite the thing.

How do you guys also living in Germany or another country be it European or any other place where Muslims are a minority experience your faith?

For me it was always often challenging, people of course don’t understand what a Muslim really is or have prejudice. I don’t blame them. They don’t know better and many are a bit clumsy with their knowledge an there is no bad intention.

I often then experienced hostility and people making a lot of jokes about halal and haram food for some reason or asking provocative and dishonest questions.

But often people don’t care a lot and let you by yourself.

Also greeting to my fellow German Muslims!

We all got to learn our religion by either converting or growing up in it. Are there practices you think arent in your opinion part of the faith and more cultural?

If yes, what do you think are those Elements?
