    I am Arab . Islam doesn’t justify hatred towards a group or individual because they sin,( as long as no one is getting harmed) . Arabs generally don’t believe that either, except if they happen to be twisted individuals. Not being welcomed doesn’t equal hate.

      You’re conflating two different things here. Arabs are an ethnic group, Islam is a religion. In any religion, what it actually says doesn’t matter (or Christians would still be looking up the going rate of a slave in the bible), what people believe matters.

      24% of the world is Muslim, and they are incredibly diverse. Ranging from people who want the heads of heathens on spikes, to wonderful open-minded people, and everything inbetween. To reiterate, Islam is bigger than just Arabs.

      Generally speaking, Arab countries tend to not have the best track record for inclusiveness, to put it lightly.

      We don’t hate you, we just think you’re an abomination and will kill you if you enter our country! Two totally different things!

      Ah geez that makes me feel much better now that I know that Arab societies don’t hate me, I’m simply not welcome /s

      (and if I was born in countries like Qatar, I’d still be thrown into torture prisons)
