Buddhism isn't really a religion, more like teachings and lessons. So my question is does Buddhism go against Islam?.

Myanmar (Buddhist country) is trying to kick out its Muslim population. Doesn't say much about Buddhism in general, but shows they don't like Muslims.

China is also trying to slowly make Islam go extinct in China through suppression of their culture in the Western provinces of China.

China's unbiased with muslims Hui live an ok live among hans and many muslims go to China for education including Somalis from Somalia, the only ones they're cracking down on are the Uyughurs with the whole freedom of East Turkistan
 
Buddhist Monks have much influence in the country, the president/military officers respect them. They see Islam as a threat to the younger generation, he also says in the clip that he doesn't want the Muslims to have a break away nation.
 
You people do know Christians are larger than Muslims in that country and the Buddhists don't have any problems with them.

Buddhists don't like Muslims because they have been fighting and causing trouble for many decades. Those newcomers have been trying to create their own country and have been doing uprisings in a country they are guests in. They fled Bangladesh for some reason. Maybe they were persecuted there too and fled.

Idol worship is rife in buddhism, as for their teachings on self-control and patience etc... it does sit in line with the deen's code, but it's corrupted i.e prostration to created statues.

Countries where Muslims are persecuted.

1. Myanmar (Buddhists)
2. Palestine (Jews)
3. Kashmir (Hindus)

Let the Muslim leave Myanmar but buddhists would not let them go but force them to stay and be killed. Bangladesh left island for them just for the refugees from Myanmar. BTW the Bantu are doing the same in Somalia but we are more human and want them to go back Tanzania.
 
Well seeing as Buddhism arrived over 1000 years before Islam it's only logical that you won't find it's texts talking about Islam. As a matter of fact, it's alot harder to justify violence let alone wars from Buddhist texts unlike the Qur'an and Sunnah which is why you didn't hear that senior Monk use scriptural justifications for persecuting Muslims in the video @Zak Jingo That said however, there is widespread Anti-Muslim bigotry which exists in Myanmar and more action needs to take place to stop the killings of Muslims by bloodthirsty Buddhist mobs.

Walk as if you are kissing the Earth with your feet.

If you truly loved yourself, you could never hurt another.

With our thoughts we make the world.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
 
I've been reading up on this and i think people have a really misconstrued idea of what's happening here. The Rohinghya's are a people who's past is very difficult to verify as they're both natives of Myanmar, and people who've come from Bangladesh. Not all of them are people who came from Bangladesh though i will reiterate. And the original reason for the hate was back during the colonial era, Bangladeshi's were moved by the british empire into Myanmar as a labor force. With them they, the Bangladeshi's, brought their religion and many people in Myanmar didn't like it because there was widespread unemployment to begin with, and arakan was literarily just depopulated. That isn't to say islam didn't exist in Myanmar before hand, it was just now there was an influx of muslims coming into the country. So the hate's been snow balling for quite some time now. It's an unfortunate case because the people of Myanmar are mostly buddhists and i assume don't really care to hurt anyone, but the politicians, like everywhere else in the world need a patsy for their tyranny. They chose the muslim because they're a small enough group to control, and will keep the crowds salivating for blood while the walls burn in around them. So no one really wins in this situation. But don't fret, Burma hates and subjugates all none Bamar, as well as religiously none buddhist, people in Burma regardless. So the hate certainly gets around in Burma. As for your question, no islam does not go against the teachings of buddhism strictly, but it goes against the more blasphemous portions that cause shirk. If you study buddhism then study islam you'll see there's alot of similarities in the teachings in as far as human actions are concerned.
