´I´m very afraid´: Muslim shock as Trump wins

He made his most controversial remarks about Islam in December last year, sparking anger among the world´s 1.5 billion followers of Islam when he called for a ban on Muslims entering the United States after a mass shooting in California.


Excuse me but I don't see any controversial remark being made about Islam by banning Muslims' entry in USA????

Trump got elected as President of USA congrats and my best wishes for him to perform according to the wishes and expectation of American citizens. And I don't believe Trump is an idiot or Americans are all war mongering people. Please hold your Trumpophobia .............

hiliary was a greater danger to world peace then trump but muslims in USA need to be worried. he has the ability to act like hitler.
He won't, his active supporters are nationalist Americans, they were called terrorists too, so they might rally with Muslims to counter that kind of propaganda..

We are back to even a far right Bush Junior.
Those belonged to some secret society and sects, Trump does not.. it is a very big difference.. they did not care for American lives in the 9/11 conspiracy just to attack and destroy Iraq and to cover it by attacking Afghanistan too.. Iraq was doing very good financially, militarily and scientifically, but it was considered a big threat to their Zionist dreams..

stop with the fear-mongering already, muslims are better off in the US than any other place on earth.

LOL Don't backtrack now. When is the ban going to be implemented? No ifs and buts. We need an answer Trump supporter.
backtrack on what ? and man, you're seriously too thick skulled to get that not everyone has a muslim agenda in their support for Trump.

If anything, he'll be better for the muslims of the world than incumbent Barry and his former rival, secretary clinton, with his strong anti isis policy as well as position on syrian rebel terrorists etc.

as far as the ban, it is not happening, it was never seriously on the table either, for the rest, wait for a bit, we'll know what his immigration policy looks like once he's in office.

There is no reason to be afraid, those were just election rhetoric.
True, he will sink in the White house advisory groups, lobbies, senate, congress and the military all have their say, he well get out of it a humble and moderate man.. no president ever works alone without taking the advice of his most senior advisors in every field of governance.. he will be a different man than during the election campaign,, the worries if any should go to his surroundings..Since he is new in politics..
He was talking as a rich, spoiled businessman.. now he will reason himself as the president of the USA and will be aware of his responsibilities and duties towards his citizens as well as towards the foreign affairs of the most powerful nation on earth..

JAKARTA: "I´m very afraid, will there be more wars? Will America attack Muslim countries again?" asked Indonesian activist Alijah Diete as Donald Trump edged closer to a shock victory in the US election.

Muslims across Asia were struggling Wednesday to accept the news that the populist politician who has made fiery anti-Islamic rhetoric a key part of his campaign was likely to become president of the world´s greatest power.

He made his most controversial remarks about Islam in December last year, sparking anger among the world´s 1.5 billion followers of Islam when he called for a ban on Muslims entering the United States after a mass shooting in California.

"Americans have just screwed the world yet again," said Syed Tashfin Chowdhury, a Bangladeshi who has several close friends in the US. Thousands in the country watched in shock as the results rolled in and Facebook lit up with horrified reactions.

A senior Pakistani government official, speaking anonymously, called the news "absolutely atrocious and horrifying" while others in the country also lamented the results.
"I am disappointed to see Donald Trump winning because Hillary Clinton is a good woman, she is good for Pakistan and Muslims all over the world," said Ishaq Khan, 32, speaking at an Islamabad market.

"She was talking about world peace -- but Trump was talking about fighting against Muslims."


- ´Muslims are foreigners to him´ -

In Indonesia, the world´s most populous Muslim-majority country, there was growing nervousness about how the relationship with traditional ally the United States would shape up, and how a Trump presidency would affect relations between America and the Muslim world.

"I am very concerned that the relationship between the US and Muslim countries will become tense again," said the female Muslim activist Diete, 47.

Nikken Suardini, who works for a law firm in the capital Jakarta, was concerned about the proposed Muslim ban. "If he is elected president he will block Muslims from entering the US -- well, that´s just not fair."

There was also concern that tough anti-Islamic policies under Trump could fan Muslim extremism globally at a time when the world is struggling with a growing threat of Islamic militancy.

"When the United States uses hard power, extremists gain a momentum," said Zuhairi Misrawi, an Islamic scholar from moderate Indonesian Islamic organisation Nahdlatul Ulama.

"Those who will be the happiest when Trump wins are ISIS," he said, referring by another name to the Islamic State group, which is struggling to hold onto its territory in Iraq and Syria in the face of a fierce military onslaught.

Some observers were more sanguine as the 70-year-old maverick appeared heading for the White House, hoping that his populist rhetoric was aimed at winning votes and would not be translated into tough xenophobic policies if he enters the White House.

"We hope that Trump´s remarks against Muslims were only to boost his campaign and he will realise that Muslims are a large population in the US," said Tahir Ashrafi, a senior Pakistani government cleric.

Others echoed the concerns that his policies would likely discriminate against American Muslims.

"His policies against Muslims will be discriminative," said Munarman, a spokesman for Indonesian hardline group the Islamic Defenders´ Front. "Muslims are foreigners to him."

Nobody need to afraid. He is not going to kill any muslim. Atleast, he can restrict Muslims' entry in pakistan.

Why are we afraid of trump? Muslim never afraid of human being.

sorry to ask this, then why so many muslim adult male refuges running out of their home to others country? wars are created by only humans not by god.

only scariest people repeatedly tell we dont afride of any one except one.

The only thing that differentiates Donald Trump from others is his big mouth. The state policies of America aren't dependent much on who so ever wins the seat. It's about who caries them perfectly. Otherwise Trump will be another J.F Kennedy.
