Israeli media: October 7 has increased Americans’ attention to Islam

According to an Israeli newspaper, the events of October 7 and the subsequent killing of Palestinians have caused American youth to pay more attention to Islamic concepts, especially the Quran.

According to the international group of Fars news agency, in the past few weeks, several reports about the attention of young Americans to the Quran and its reading were published in the media. Many short videos were shared on the Tik Tok social network, which showed that young girls are excited to read the Quran and get to know some of its concepts.

Newspaper Yediot Aharonot Today’s occupied Palestine print on its website a report on this especially published and wrote, “American youth are looking for meaning and for some reason they find it specifically in Islam”. It was America, and as a result of that, the phenomenon of Islamophobia spread and their lives became difficult.” Yediot continued by saying these words: “But at the same time, another phenomenon was formed. Curiosity and interest in Islam among Americans is more than other religions… and the Quran became one of the best-selling books.” In other words, the events of September 11 became the biggest propaganda for Islam in the world, thus spreading it all over the world. On the other hand, Islamic thinkers and preachers tried hard to explain that Islam is a religion of peace in the face of attacks on Islam… Later, when social networks emerged, they found their ideal citizens and their ideal class to promote and introduce Islam… They found it”.

Yediot Aharonot pointed to a new incident in the past weeks and wrote: The Tik Tok social network was recently filled with videos of young Americans (most of whom we must say were girls and young women). who were excited to read the Quran and were surprised by its content.

What aggravated this process is the killing of people in Gaza. Yediot wrote in this regard: “The Israeli war in Gaza following the events of October 7th and the images of the suffering of the people of the Gaza Strip gave Americans a lot of motivation to pay attention to the Quran and Islam. This time, the ideal target audience is Generation Z (Z); Those who found starting points for their views on the world in the Qur’an and related writings and decided to board this train.” This Israeli newspaper added: Megan Rice Tick Toker A month ago, the American celebrity, who expressed his surprise at the endurance of the people of Gaza in a video, then advised others to read the Koran to know the secret of this endurance, and finally, in recent weeks, he converted to Islam and wore hijab, the only cause of this issue. is not. Rice is a part of this Tik Tok trend that quickly became popular among the Z generation. Generation Z has found meanings in the Quran and Islam that they believe in, such as the values ​​of freedom and social solidarity, and resistance to the oppressive and exploitative world, and an effective tool to challenge institutions and previous generations.”

Yediot Aharonot went on to discuss the reason for this trend in America and wrote, “It is not very easy to understand what is the secret of this generation’s fascination with the Koran, from the point of view of us Israelis.” There are vague interpretations of the issue and some young people keep talking about recommendations in the Qur’an regarding “heart connection” or others say that the Qur’an has ordered men to pay for their wives and give alimony, or if a man cannot treat all his wives equally and Be fair, settle for one wife. Others have said that they felt a warmth, tolerance and sympathy in the Qur’an that was not there in the strict Christian environment in which they grew up. In America, they have turned to reading the Koran to understand the reason for the Palestinians’ resistance against Israel. The newspaper added that the videos published on this social network with the hashtag quranbookclub have received 1.9 million views so far, and many users with this hashtag are sharing their pictures and videos with newly purchased Quran books and reading the verses of this book for the first time. are loads.
