Why do Muslims ardently support secularism when they are in minority but fiercely oppose it when in majority?
Can you explain to me why Muslims ardently support secularism when they are in minority but fiercely oppose it when in majority?
Muslims supporting secularism in minority situations but opposing it in majority situations might be due to the perception that secularism is a Western concept that has been imposed on Muslim countries during the colonial period. Some may also believe that secularism goes against Islamic values and principles. Additionally, when Muslims are a minority, they may see secularism as a way to protect their own rights and freedoms, while when in the majority, they may want to protect their Islamic identity and traditions.
