Largely yes. However, what they consider a reasonable "grievance" and "injustice" is determined by an Islamic worldview and Islamic beliefs. The only reason why a British Muslim gets all outraged about what happens to some people in Chechnya is their sense of Islamic brotherhood. I also think Islam to some degree determines how they respond to these perceived "injustices".
