A woman voiced her pain after faithfully serving her mosque for years—cleaning and maintaining it, even doing tasks others avoided—only to be overlooked for a women’s position that instead went to socially prominent attendees. Feeling sidelined, she questioned whether sincerity and dedication truly mattered. Her story drew mixed reactions, ranging from support to criticism and divisive takes.
One comment stated: “Most people that suggest that she should do it for the sake of God are mostly Christians because that’s how we are taught and brought up. Even if you are not a Muslim, it’s very evident that they do everything for the human eye. They do nothing in secret for the service of God.”
This remark is problematic because it shifts the discussion from her specific grievance to broad religious generalizations. Instead of addressing the fairness issue she raised, it stereotypes entire faith groups, portraying one positively while condemning another. Such sweeping claims promote division, reinforce prejudice, and derail meaningful dialogue. Constructive discussion should focus on the situation itself rather than attacking or comparing religious communities.
