Islam strongly rejects the fact that belonging to different social and ethnic groups is seen as an advatnge of superiority. Because the superiority is not possible with ethnic belonging, but with Taqwa. (Al-Hujurat, 13) But in the history of mankind, racism has continued as a biased, unfounded understanding that unconscious masses hold. The individuals or societies that ignorance took captive tried to exert pressure on others by elevating the ethnic structure to which they belong.
White racism, which has been trying to spread rapidly over the past two decades, is seen as a concept that the capitalist West and its collaborators put into their occupation and massacre as a package. This fascist ideology, which defends the supremacy of the white race in Western societies, especially in the US, and does not accept the rights of foreign elements, continues to spread as a dangerous virus. White racist militants, provoked recently by US President Trump and his supporters, are trying to intimidate immigrants, especially Muslims by attacking them. When you look at the massacre in New Zealand and the manifesto of the liquidator, you can see the true face of this mentality that tries to throw mud at Muslims at every opportunity.
We cannnot predict where or how the white racist terrorists will appear. As you can remember, on 22 July 2011, racist terrorist named Anders Breivik in Norway had randomly fired on immigrants and killed 77 innocent people. The manifesto that Breivik wrote may inspire his intellectuals so that a white terrorist named Brenton Tarant has shooted the praying Muslims and killed 50 Muslims by the same way on the day we have passed recently in New Zealand. As you can remember, a mosque was also attacked in Canada and six people were killed.
The white racist mentality focuses on the difficult childhood of the murderer, not the murdered Muslims and tries to soften the incident while fifty Muslims were killed by automatic gunshots during prayers. However, we know that these mentalities write various kinds of scenarios in order to show Islam and Muslims as violent through illegal terrorist organizations they produce in Islamic societies.
Well, isn’t this white racist mentality that turned the Middle East into a lake of blood and slaughtered thousands of people? Isn’t this white racist mentality that leaves the chilren as orphans, leaves the women as widows, and occupies the resources of innocent people? Isn’t this white racist mentality that makes violation and occupation in the Middle East, exposes to slander, discredits, signs out any slaughters that may not even comes to mind? In this case, how pity is it that where a dark action comes out, a photo of a Muslim looking beard is stuck and the hatred of Islam is being spread over this photo.
The white racist mentality tried to intimidate Muslims by the massacre in New Zealand. But regardless of what creature wants, desire of Allah happens. As a matter of fact, after the grave event, the people of New Zealand began to be close to Islam and Muslims and became Muslim. After the attack many people became Muslims. The New Zealand President stood by the Muslims who were exposed to violence and gave messages of peace. God reversed their dark mentality and expectations and the Western man began to study Islam and understand that the ideas that were touted were unfounded. So things didn’t go the way they wanted!
