Muslims must shed victim mentality: Tariq Ramadan

Muslims must shed victim mentality: Tariq Ramadan

The causes are multi-dimensional. The first is the historic cause. Western domination of Muslim societies was long and severe. The scars of colonisation are still there. Then we have the economic imperialism of today. There are also cultural and intellectual causes.As a result, Muslims generally have a very negative image of West. We nurture a sense of victimhood. But that has to change. We have to liberate ourselves from this mindset to be able to deal with our own principles. We have to give up this confrontationist approach against the West.
