I was reading about Bosnia and I found something beautiful.
Many Bosnian Christians were enslaved during the wars with Habsburg Austria, Hungary, and the Republic of Venice.
When Ottoman empire conquered Bosnia, they freed the slaves. Those newly freed slaves converted to Islam and they were free to retain their original Slavic traditions.
That was 5 centuries ago.
It shows how encompassing and liberal the fold of Islam is.
When muslim ruled Spain for several centuries, no one was forced to change their religion or culture and thats why their culture lives to this day.
I wish Europe were treating Muslims in a similar fashion tody.
It saddens me to see that the 21st century France pioneers in removing individual rights and religious freedom from mulims (banning hijab), anti-muslim propaganda and literature being encouraged throughout Europe and some prominent leaders of Europe voice their disgust regarding muslims.
When ethnic cleansing of Bosnian mulims were happening right in the heart of Europe, Bosnians were under arms embargo and Serbs were killing them, raping them...etc. It is interesting to see that those who committed genocide of Bosnian muslims are still at large and one will hear no mention of them in the media.
