Stupid question: how can someone be a socialist and a Muslim at the same time? 🧐…how can they exist in the same sentence ?

There's been tons of socialist Muslims this past century. Most Arab nationalist were originally socialists. Muslim political spectrum is about as vast an any other

Yeah and most of them weren’t exactly the greatest Muslims either. I honestly think you can’t wholeheartedly believe in both simultaneously, you have to give one up. Otherwise you appear to lack understanding.

Many who are well intentioned lack understanding.

Said Barre preached Islamic, Scientific, Socialism. It was a disaster

Exactly, said barre was quite anti-Islamic in his statements and has caused great harm. I hope he repented and Allah can forgive his sins as he is no longer with us.

When you disrespect private property like socialism/communism does, you disrespect core Islamic tenants.

Just like a Muslim but still a racist or xenophobic Muslim

It is what it is

Tbh if they are centre left or centre right Muslim, it's fine.. But when they say they are far left or right Muslim, that is concerning

Or so I think 🤔
