What Islamic Ummah?

I have no problem with a Muslim majority nation celebrating Eid as a Holiday not Christmas. For someone who has lived in Pakistan for so long the Holiday holds a secular connotation. Same goes for Christmas in historically Christian majority states. The problem arises when you punish people for eating in public in Ramazan because now you’re forcing a hardship on them for the sake of your religion. A holiday is hardly a hardship.

Majority abuses minority in Pakistan all the time. Shias and Ahmedis are killed on a regular basis. Curtailing freedom of speech does not reduce violence, education does, real education.

Giving them freedom of expression wont solve this problem.
