Inside an Indian Madrasa: Peacefully Awaiting America's Fall

Malegaon, Maharashtra - Mufti Mohammed Ismail, the leading cleric of Malegaon, a 75% Muslim town known for its many madrassas, tells me the religious schools here try hard to avoid discussion of America and global politics, but "there's a restlessness among students" who raise difficult questions. When teachers themselves believe "America has a systematic conspiracy to eradicate Islam" how can they explain "America's cruel and violent actions around the world" to curious students without inspiring hatred? The answer, I'm told, is in history and religion: "power is not permanent," "the cruel reap what they sow" and so "America will die its own death." In short, be patient.

an over whelming majority of muslims are honest and decent people just like everyone else.Its unfair to even keep saying what ive said now.

Like madarsas are really teaching good things....they are just making innocent childerns to hate non muslims......

[AkkiSantana]

@eliterammer madarsas never invented anything even what they teach students there is quran and things which are themselves of no use to get them jobs in real world...and muslims use mobile phones, use mics in masjits are all made by kafirs...i think allah has given more brain to kafirs then muslims themselves....

lol

@bobjohn5 I totally agree with you. Im Muslim and I believe that God is Merciful and loving. Just because people live in America doesn't mean they should be regarded by what their government does. Americans dont destroy. just because us Americans have the ability to stand up for ourselves doesn't mean we are violent. and want to destryo countries. how pathetic.

This Mufti Ismail, needs to see further than what is actually portrayed as america. I know this guy through my uncle and they are just haters. Such Islamic scholars are not supposed to be playing in the political world. Haters!!! I LOVE AMERICA!!! Mufti Ismail needs to see things for the benefit of Society, not just his pocket.

Now see its ignorance like this witch leads Americans to destroy your country. This man is ignorant, just like most False god worshipers are, and has no business teaching children about religions. First of all not all Americans want a war. Most Americans know that their government is evil and we wish these wars had never begun. Second, why not teach the children that most Americans have been lied to by their government and we are as hopeless as they are in protecting are selfs from the US Mil

how can you be racist to an american unless they are navajo or cherokee or apache I don't see how that's possible... also racism plays on the colour of your skin not your nationality... on a final note religion don't start wars it's the messed up ppl who distorts scriptures that start wars not the scriptures themselves...
