Kuala Lumpur
\nThe Majlis Perundingan Pertubuhan Islam Malaysia (MAPIM) has expressed grave concern over rising anti-Muslim hate campaigns across India, warning that the situation is rapidly deteriorating.
\nMAPIM, the Malaysian Consultative Council of Islamic Organisations, highlighted a growing pattern of Islamophobia, vigilante violence, and systematic discrimination against Muslims. The organisation cited incidents from October 2025, including assaults linked to \u201ccow protection\u201d vigilantism in Maharashtra, and noted the normalisation of hate speech at public gatherings targeting the Muslim community.
\nThe body also flagged economic exclusion of Muslims, pointing to campaigns portraying Muslim-owned businesses as \u201cimpure\u201d or undesirable, including reported market pressure during Chhath Puja celebrations in Delhi. MAPIM warned that such actions deepen communal polarisation and threaten long-term regional stability.
\nCalling for urgent international intervention, MAPIM urged the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights and UN Special Rapporteurs on religious freedom, minority issues, racism, and extrajudicial executions to monitor the situation closely.
\nThe organisation also appealed to the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to convene emergency consultations and establish a fact-finding mechanism, while asking ASEAN countries to raise the issue through diplomatic channels.
\nMAPIM further called on the Malaysian government to take a principled stand, press for the protection of minorities, and ensure transparent investigations into hate crimes, stressing that \u201csilence in the face of systematic discrimination is complicity.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
